HALLOW-FACT of The Day- 2 Days to HALLOW-DEGA^SM

In northern Ireland, it was customary for Druids to perform ritualistic ceremonies and make sacrifices to pacify their gods. The Celts would bring wood and start their Samhain bonfire or, fire festival, on the hilltop. Often, they would throw the bones of slaughtered cattle into the flames. The word “bonfire” is said to be derived from such “bone fires.”  Bonfires and sacrifices guaranteed that the sun would burn brightly after a long, dreary winter. It’s common to witness hundreds of traditional bonfires in Ireland every year on Halloween Night.
