    Death, Dying and the Spirit World

    Crossroads

    After attending a local gathering of the Death Cafe', which is a discussion group abut Death and dying, I decided to focus the October Crossroads show on these topics. As the season turns and many things are in the process of going back to the Earth, many cultures honor this by celebrating Halloween, The Day of the Dead, (Dia de los Muertos) and the ancient celebration by the Druids , the Celtic people and others, Samhain, where the veil between the worlds of the living and the non-living is thin.
