E52: A Different Kind of Halloween | Con...

SHANNON O’HARA
About this episode

These days we celebrate a lot of holidays where we no longer connect to the origins.

Embracing true ability is something Shannon knows too well, especially when it comes to Halloween. Listen to her share her story on how she embraced her natural abilities with Entities.

Today we celebrate Halloween and Dia de los Muertos with food and candy, but are we embracing the legends and origins behind these holidays? Do they need to be relevant to us in order to celebrate?

Key takeaways:

  • Halloween is essentially the Talk to the Entities Holiday
  • Lack of belief in the spirit world is a relatively modern phenomenon that was instituted by religion and then solidified by the religion of science
  • How much of your magic, mystery, possibility and energy have you hidden in the dark so no one would judge you for it?
  • Don’t refuse something that is a natural ability and capacity to you
