Samhian

 Traditionally the end/start of the year.

This was the time of no-time when chaos reigned and the barrier between the Otherworld and ours was weakened, if not completely removed.

This was the time when those prepared could travel to the 'other side'.

The time when the dead were remembered and feasted as though they were still with us.

Cailleach Beara, the grey hag mother, rules this festival
