OK, so perhaps I was drawn to the Halloween Oracle because I’m reading a summery horror novel right now (Ghoul by Brian Keene), but we do need to looking after our future, even if Beltaine is six weeks behind us and Samhain months away. Being prepared for difficult times may not seem like fun, but it’s nice when the difficult times arrive – and the current world situation suggests hard times may keep coming for many of us. Be prepared and look for hints of things to come, personally and globally.
Blessings!

THE VEIL – The Future
There is a misty curtain
That divides us all
The veil that this night thins
Transparent the weave becomes
And the future no longer dims
The ancient Celts used to call the time of the longest night of the year, Samhain (pronounced SOW-en). They believed that there was a misty veil that separated the world of the dead and the living, but on two nights of the year, Samhain and Beltaine (the shortest night), that the veil would thin.
The fineness of the veil meant the ancestors were closer than ever and even gods would be close. This would mean that communications from the dead were more likely to occur and that divination (where the Divine speaks through something) would be more effective.
So while using this oracle, as the veil lifts, know that the other worlds are close. Listen in particular to what messages may come forth about your future. Look to what you want to happen: plan, set intentions, think big!
