“Blessed are the cracked, for they let in the light” - Spike Milligan

I write this on Halloween for delivery to you on the 1st of November, All Saints Day, celebrated as the Day of The Dead. In the Pagan wheel of the year today is Samhain (I write this on October 31st), a time to connect to your ancestors, a time to dance in the liminal space and touch the veil between this life and the next. This year Diwali also falls today, celebrating the victory of light over dark, good over evil. It is an auspicious day for acknowledging your own light, your own aliveness, your own ancestral line that brought you into being - totally unique and full of light.
