HAPPY HALLOWEEN: Samhain/Old Irish!

The ancient festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-in), the origin of Halloween that celebrates the end of the "lighter half" of the year and the beginning of the "darker half." The meaning denotes the end of the harvest and the end of summer. The beginning of dark, cold winter times often marked with human death.
BTW, the definition of Samhaim, it is a Gaelic festival or another Irish name or Scottish Gaelic name for November. Another one of its meanings is disambiguation. Disambiguation means to remove the ambiguity from; to make unambiguous. Ambiguous means doubtful, uncertain, lacking clarity of meaning or open to more than one interpretation.
