There are Hispanic/Latin cultures that have the Day of the Dead https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead
Celtic cultures celebrate Samhain https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samhain
Certain Scandinavian countries keep a closely guarded celebration of Álfablót https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%81lfabl%C3%B3t
In America we celebrate Halloween https://www.history.com/topics/halloween
What do all these have in common?  They all celebrate the mystery of death. 
At Haus Rheinwood, we have no problem declaring today as Ancestors’ Night!

I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me.  I’m grateful for the strong German heritage you’ve provided. I look forward with eager anticipation to the great family reunion on the other side.  I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.

He climbs down from the trunk, must tell me his tale
When I carve the Runes right.

Rune Lesson:  Sometimes ice can be very destructive.  Think about glaciers.  When they move, they destroy everything in their path.  At the same time, they make way for better things.  Sometimes WE have to be broken down to have our born-again experience.  We remain calm.  We are renewed. 
*from destruction to re-creation

Back onto the door knocker project as my brother came over with his variable speed cordless drill.  It went well enough until the metal part came off.  Now I have to come up with some way to keep it up.  I up a but of curvature in it to match the curvature of the board and am attempting to gorilla-glue it first.  I MAY, once its dried, try to drill a couple of small holes to accommodate a couple of screws.
*
The project for the dried corn cob went exceedingly well.  It was so simple in design it couldn’t have been any easier.  I didn’t have it up all that long and it was already visited by my squirrel friends.

Held my own ceremony for the ancestors.  Candles and incense.  Nothing fancy.  Very simple.  Expressing my heart.  Moving for me.  For me, this is THE MOST solemn night of the year.

God/dess Meditation: Saturday/Saturn’s Day/Tag der Fruchtbarkeit/Day of Fertility (UPG), Frouwa/An: Freya & Ing-Frô/An: Frey:
Frouwa, most lovely of all goddesses; who could not love you?  Women as their own inner glory and highest attainment as the self-made woman, men for your beauty, passion and strength. Praise to you for the gift of life, and for the love that makes life worth living. Remind us always that it is the strong who love the best and the most, and that only the mighty can truly be gentle. Fill our lives with passion and lust that we may live our lives to the fullest. WE GIVE YOU MOST A HEART-FELT HEIL, FROUWA, as we honor the Frouwa that resides in us all!

Ing-Frô/An: Frey, you’re the Great God of Fridu (all-encompassing safety and protection), Ar (peace, good seasons), the good harvest and prosperity: you are indeed the god of this World. When the day to day wears us down remind us of pleasures and joys. Help us recall the wonderful excesses that brought our lives into being and which sustain the human spirit during good times and bad. Without you, there would be no life and certainly little delight. Thank you, Ing-Frô, for the rushing life spirit and the eternal play of passions that make our lives fruitful.  WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, ING-FRÔ, as we honor the Ing-Frô that resides in all of us!
