To work magic is to weave the unseen forces into form; to soar beyond sight; to explore the uncharted dream realm of the hidden reality. – Starhawk from Simple Abundance by Sarah Ban Breathnach

My childhood Hallowe’en costumes were always some variation on the witch theme, with the capes becoming more and more elaborate as the years went on. I think I fared better than my siblings who opted for ghost garb.

A moment only he feels the spell
Of the place and the hour, and the secret dread
Of the lonely belfry and the dead;
 from The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The spirits of the dead swirled all around me on my walk today.
