Halloween Invitations for Halloween Party Celebrations
Halloween Invitations for Halloween Party Celebrations
Planning a Halloween Party, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/halloween/ can be plenty of fun but you can have an even better time choosing your Ghost Halloween Invitations, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/halloween/halloween-invitations if you know a little bit about the history of the season. Let's start with the origins of the date and name. The name is actually a corruption of All Hallow's Eve. You see, All Hallow's Day was a religious event for the worship of Catholic saints. The festivities always took place on November 1 so October 31st became known as All Hallow's Eve. Of course, the day was significant long before the Catholic religion became a dominant force in Europe. For the Irish Celts, the day was known as Samhain and was celebrated as the last day of summer and the first day of the new year.
Now that you know why you always send out those Invitations Halloween for parties at the end of October, you might have developed an interest in the origins of some of the other festive traditions, including trick or treating. In part, this idea came over with the Irish who had to flee their homes during the mid 19th century because of the Great Potato Famine. They brought with them the idea of wearing costumes for Samhain. However, the door-to-door begging came from a practice known as souling. Christians walked between villages asking for soul cakes - a type of bread baked with currants.
When the beggars received the cakes, they would pray for the person's deceased relatives to assist in expediting their movement to heaven from limbo. Souling eventually became combined with the costumes and with the threat of tricks. Of course, most of the tips were relatively harmless back in those days, including tipping over outhouses. One cute idea is to serve soul cakes to everyone who receives Halloween Party Invitations, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/halloween/halloween-party-invitations.
Of course, there are plenty of other traditions, too. What kind of Kids Halloween Invitations, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/halloween/kids-halloween-invitations wouldn't include a mention of bobbing for apples? That tradition may also date back to ancient Europe, too. When the Romans conquered most of the continent, they decided to incorporate some of the Samhain traditions into their own and vice versa. In fact, the Romans had their own Halloween Birthday Invitations, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/halloween/halloween-birthday-invitations for a day celebrating Pomona in October. Since she was the goddess of fruit and trees, it made sense that her symbol was the apple. Is that a coincidence? When it comes to deciphering the facts about Scary Halloween Invitations, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/halloween/scary-halloween-invitations traditions, there are no coincidences.
Jack-o-lanterns are definitely another Halloween party tradition. But this is one tradition that is an amalgamation of two different traditions. One of the traditions involves the story of Jack that comes from Ireland as well. Jack was not a very nice person but one night he made a mistake and decided it would be funny to trick the devil into being trapped in a tree. The devil was so angry that he cursed Jack and made him wander the world for an eternity with only a carved, candle-lit turnip for light. These became known as Jack's lanterns. Of course, this doesn't mean you should replace the pumpkins on the Halloween Invitations, http://www.holiday-invitations.com/ turnips.
Actually, no. When the Irish immigrants arrived in North America, pumpkins replaced the turnips because they were larger, more plentiful, and easier to carve creatively. Furthermore, pumpkins were already a popular symbol of fall during Harvest festivals. The transition for Jack's turnip lantern to the grinning pumpkin Jack o'lantern for your Halloween invitations was really a blending of Celtic and North American symbolism.
