Samhain Coloring Page for the Morrigan

Samhain Coloring Page for the Morrigan October 31, 2014

I’ve been too busy to think, which is pretty normal this time of year. There’s costumes to make, coloring pages to draw, candy to buy, and stuffie pumpkins to sew. (It’s a thing. Don’t judge me.)  I often feel a little torn between the secular aspects of Halloween and the spiritual side of this time of year.  The balance that I’ve found is that for the month of October I go full swing into modern traditional celebration.  Costumes, fake blood, skulls, you name it we do it! Then there is the sugar rush of trick or treating.

I switch focus after that.  I take the gory stuff down and switch it out for pictures of great-grandparents and beloved dead.  We light candles and give offerings until Thanksgiving, which seems to work for me.  In the middle of that is our grove Samhain celebration. As part of getting ready for our feast for the Ancestors I was working on creating some content for the younger set, including a coloring page.  I thought I’d share this with the internet world, since I’ve complained often enough that there aren’t many really good coloring pages for pagans.  This year our grove is celebrating in a Celtic style, so we are asking the Morrigan to be our gatekeeper.  She’s not usually called on as gatekeeper, but it’s what people wanted, and honestly, my grove has always been a little idiosyncratic anyway. So without further ado, coloring page goodness.  Enjoy!
