Finnish Witches And Their Magical Rituals (16 Photos)

https://www.thethings.c ... s-16-photos/

Do you believe in magic? How about witches? There are a lot of things that happen in life that seem pretty magical, and sometimes, it's nice to believe in something other than the norm.

There are definitely some real deal witches out there, and a lot of them are supposedly Finnish. Finland is said to have had a pretty big population of witches during the period of the 1500s until the 1800s. In fact, in Finland, witches are part of a ritual before the Easter holiday and it sounds equal parts interesting and adorable. Children dress up like witches and go house to house, giving people chocolate eggs, which sounds like a hybrid of Easter and Halloween for sure.

Hi Ursus,

Thanks for sharing!

I just got back from FINLAND.
I spent some time in OULU the capital of Northern Scandinavia.

I still have to process some of the information I found in the history museum there.

Bright Blessings,
Morgana
