The Circle Is Open But Unbroken

Even if it only happens once a year, the deep and subtle magic of Samhain remains. And last night, Hono'o-chan has once again affirmed this for all of us who attended the gathering. The ritual was no less a wonderful experience -- even if it were more informal -- than last year's, and the feast was absolutely good both to see and taste. There were new friends to connect with, and old ones that were missed, and on each one's lips at the end of the evening were the words:

From my heart
to these hands
to your heart,
take all the love you need
and pass it on.
You would have loved it, R.
