The Witches’ New Year or Wheel of the Year festival Samhain is on October 31st. Samhain (pronounced sow-in) is traditionally a time for remembrance and release. Witches also use this festival to create more abundance by releasing any negative energy that prevents us from being prosperous and achieving our goals.
