Samhain (pronounced
SAH-win or
SOW-in,
Irish pronunciation: [sˠaunʲ]) is a
Gaelic festival marking the end of the
harvest season and the beginning of winter or the "
darker half" of the year. Traditionally, it is celebrated from the very beginning of
one Celtic day to its end, or in the modern calendar,
from sunset on 31 October
to sunset on 1 November, this places it about halfway between the
autumn equinox and the
winter solstice. - Wikipedia
