As a time bearing in mind one about ends and a new one begins, Celtic tradition teaches that the cloak separating the divergent world from the supernal realms is particularly thin and open within Samhain. In attract to the "break" in the seepage of time, Samhain is an respite for severe mystical modification. Correspondence Lag B'Omer, mystical bonfires lay claim to a gift in the devotion of Samhain.
The word Samhain derives from the Proto-Celtic word "samani", which wherewithal "display" (cognate to Sanskrit "s'amana"). The Hebrew equivalent to Samhain is the word from the grounds meaning "assembling", "gathering" and "bringing together". This grounds is found in "Tehilim 147:2"...
"The L-rd rebuilds Jerusalem; She gathers in the exiles of Israel."

The at first word in this pasuk is "boneh" from the awfully grounds as Binah, a female sefirah of the "dark" not here emanantion. Honestly, the at first part of this pasuk reads resembling a rule "build Jerusalem Hashem!" The Forecast She is She who instructions it be done.
