DAY 1119: Samhain Part II

My ancestor candles are burning. A flowers and a skull were added to my altar. I also drew the "Journey" card from the Samhain oracle deck, but it went missing almost immediately ... taking a journey of its own.
I went to the cemetery about 11pm, offering German chocolate and the Italian liqueur Strega, flowers, then I lit the sparkler that was distributed at the funeral of my cousin's wife with a note that read, "You will shine in our hearts forever." And shine Julie did tonight.
