Here’s to the ones still
fighting quiet battles
with tired hearts and
hopeful spirits.

You may not be where you
want to be yet, but you’re still standing… and that’s everything.

Keep going,
you’re stronger than you think.

The Parshell (or Irish Samhain Cross) is a traditional charm woven on Oíche Shamhna, Samhain Night, to protect the home and household through the year ahead. Made from two rowan twigs bound with red thread and sometimes also woven with wheaten straw, it wards off the mischief of the Sídhe and any ill luck.

When the new Parshell is hung above the doorway, the maker recites:
“An donas amach, is an sonas isteach, ó anocht go dtí bliain ó anocht”
(Misfortune out, good fortune in, from this night until a year from tonight).

Old Parshells are then moved to the rafters, shed, or byre, as a new one takes their place. A quiet act of protection and blessing, carried through the generations of Samhain nights in Ireland.

I’ve been making these for years, keeping this tradition alive, and have a number of old ones that will soon move out to the sheds. Now is time to visit the Rowan tree, offer a small gift, and ask if she has any twigs to share for this year’s Parshell.

I wish more people understood that grief isn’t just being sad and crying.
Grief is being angry, being numb, being broken, and being everything in-between
Grief is so different for everyone and you just have to go thru the motions and roll with the punches.
When you’re grieving the loss of someone you grieve for what was and what will never be, grief also takes a big toll on your mental and physical health.
Grief is LOVE with nowhere to go.
Grief is trying to remind yourself that “this too shall pass”
Grief is forcing yourself out of bed to shower and eat.
Greif is isolating yourself
Grief is surrounding yourself with people and things to distract your brain from reality
Grief is ugly and rough, so if you cannot understand why people grieve so hard for so long and so deep consider yourself lucky to not understand.
