Setsubun Hallowbean Festival (10/25/24)

Halloween (and thanksgiving) is celebrated around the world in a variety of forms, often in ways westerners, and particularly Americans, would find confusing or out of place. Setsubun in Japan is a spring cleaning festival which helps to cleanse the home of evil spirits, something which, from an American perspective, would incorporate elements of both Imbolc, spring cleaning, and Halloween. Dia de los Muertos in Mexico, Correfoc in Catalonia, Basler Fasnacht in Switzerland, Gai Jatra in Nepal, Matariki in New Zealand, Fet Gede in Haiti, Awuru Odo in Nigeria, as well as Hungry Ghost in southeast Asia, are all examples of man's attempt to bring in good fortune while purifying himself of evil in the form of ignorance, darkness, cold, and the like.
