The Origins of Halloween
How and when did we start celebrating Halloween!
The costumes, candy and trick or treat traditions as part of the Halloween celebration as we know it are relatively modern and they became popular in the first decades of the 20th century.
History traces Halloween back to the ancient religion of the Celtics. Celtics believed that the days around November the 1st were days when the line between the world of the living and the world of the dead became very easy to cross. They believed that at that time hostile supernatural forces were active and ghosts and spirits were free to wander as they wished.
Celtic beliefs lived through the centuries and in various forms still stay active in many cultures.
In many parts of the world November 1st is still time to remember dead relatives and loved ones. In the United States, however, it grew into something much larger - into the fun, carnival like holiday - the Halloween.
In recent years other countries, like Germany, under the influence of American culture have adopted Halloween and started celebrating it American way.
In the years to come we can expect nothing less than further spreading of the fun Halloween traditions.

Black Cat Symbolism
Black cat is a well known symbol often related with Halloween... find out why.
If we add tho the dark look the fact that black cats like all other cats like to go out at night and that their eyes look pretty impressive in the dark there is no doubt where the myth of a dark and dangerous creature comes.
Black cats are often associated with witchcraft and occult which are always mysterious practices hidden from the wide population. Just remember that the fear of unknown is hidden in many of us. No wonder that the black cat gets the bad reputation.
There are many superstitions that involve black cats. A black cat crossing your path brings bad luck... one of them says. Nobody wants bad luck and we are all at least tiny bit superstitious.
With all the negative and dark reputation black cats receive it is no surprise that they are a symbol of Halloween. The spooky and scary creature is just what Halloween needs to make it even more exciting.
