Whether it’s the change of the seasons, a fun night to play, a ritual of grief and renewal, the thinning of the veils between the living and the dead, Dîa de los Muertos, whatever it means to you, the end of October is significant in many traditions.  In this episode of Paradigms we hear from songwriters before we hear their witchy magical soulful and very personal songs.

There’s also a reading from Zenna Henderson’s book Ingathering, The Complete People Stories.

The cycles of life, death and rebirth are celebrated throughout the world.  Finding the divine in the cycles of nature, accepting and working with the cycles of nature, as part of nature and not her conqueror, has been central to human cultures in the past, and, if we are to survive, will be again.

Music by: Fleetwood Mac, Travis Knapp, Cyd Reiman, Reclaiming, Nightsong, Luis Mojica, Brooke Scofield, and Suzanne Sterling.
