What are the real origin of Halloween?
This video delves into the rich history and symbolism of Halloween, tracing its roots back to ancient civilizations and their veneration of deities. Contrary to popular belief, Halloween is not merely about death and witchcraft; it symbolizes life, renewal, and the cyclical nature of existence. The video highlights the Sumerians' worship of the Anunnaki, the oldest deities venerated on Earth. It also addresses the Church's orthodox views on Halloween, emphasizing the need to look beyond religious biases. The video touches upon Brazil's Day of the Dead and the growing popularity of Halloween in the country. It explains the origins of Halloween, linking it to the Celtic celebrations of Samhain and Beltane, which mark the end of summer and the beginning of winter. These festivities are deeply tied to the cycles of nature, the sacred masculine and feminine, and the balance of universal forces. The video delves into the Sumerian mythology of Inanna's descent to the underworld, highlighting the cyclical time where either the god or goddess represents death, renewal, harvest, and balance. Inanna's tale is recognized as the first mythological story of resurrection. The video establishes connections between Beltane, Halloween, and the celebrations of the resurrection of the goddess of love and fertility, emphasizing the undeniable links between these festivities. The transitions from cold to warmth, from solstice to equinox, are deeply tied to our life cycle. The video concludes by addressing the "trick or treat" tradition, urging viewers to enjoy the festivities irrespective of their religious beliefs and to respect others' practices.
