Our beloved sister city is struggling to leave behind the dark days it lived under severe lockdowns, especially now when Halloween ceremonial ribbons for NYC decorations will enchant the residents of the Big Apple and call them to celebrate seasonal dates that are immensely more frightening than any virus. The whole 13 weeks of autumn, from Equinox to Samhain, also known as All Hallows Eve, or “Halloween,” are ceremonial celebrations to the forces of darkness, beyond terrifying in their significance. At least according to the manuals of occult, satanic rites. Especially because if successful – and this untouchable global community of Satanists appear unstoppable in their insatiable greed and perversions, the dark autumn, will lead to a darker winter. Scared already? Wondering if you will be able to get your hands on the perfect orange ceremonial ribbon? Alternatively, a shiny, beautifully intense shade of pure black-hole-black, extra-wide ribbon for the sacrificial altar? Worry no more NYC planners! There is time yet to prepare for Halloween in NYC, another night of ultimate evil!
Orange and the Meaning of the Autumnal Equinox
Our calendar is split up into four parts of thirteen (13) weeks each. You heard right. Thirteen. These are seasonal dates that correspond to spring, summer, fall, and winter. The rituals of darkness operate in all seasons but none more important than autumn and winter. Starting with September 21. According to Witchipedia, the Fall (or Autumn) Equinox celebration that takes place when the Sun enters Libra on September 21 is a time to give thanks to the waning sunshine, a time to give thanks for the harvests of the year’s crops. Pagans, called “wiccans”, celebrate the Fall Equinox. And they do so with festive ribbons, prepared in anticipation of the feast with oils to form imprints. At ceremonialsupplies.com we use other, less primitive forms of printing and engraving. The Wiccan Fall festival was named Mabon in the 1970’s although it has always been celebrated since humans made a ritualistic connection between cycles of the earth, and our dependence on them. September 21 also commemorates the time of delicate balance between strong opposing forces, such as life and death, and light and dark, cold and hot, red and blue, with the acceptance that after this period of balance, there will be a dip into darkness and death for a while until March 21, the Spring Equinox when everyone will plant food again! The color orange is the most prominent color in nature during this time. Light orange, golden orange, deep orange, blood orange, orange red, are all shades associated with the harvest colors, the falling leaves of autumn, and, ceremonial ribbons! Ceremonialsupplies.com has a range of ceremonial ribbons color orange, golden, reds, and lusty black in different width sizes to help you decorate anything from a conference room office costume parade, to an exquisite ballroom masquerade ball this Halloween.
Satanists’ most sacred and holiest of days is October 31, the time when earth begins to enter its darkest days; a time when nothing is sown because crops don’t survive the cold – represented later in the winter months by icy silver and snow white. Fall is a time of harvest, guided by the spirit of laborious enterprise. It’s a time when the heat and warmth of the sun becomes vulnerable to darkness and cold. Wiccans, who aren’t necessarily Satanists, celebrate this festival too, but they relate it to Gaelic traditions and Latin American tradition holds November 1 as the “Day of the Dead” – which is the day after Halloween night. Halloween is a time to remember those who have passed on; it celebrates the end of long days and light, and prepares for the dark, cold, months ahead. Black ceremonial ribbons and orange ribbons are in abundance on Halloween, although Thanksgiving festivals celebrated in November also feature the colors of nature’s harvest where orange is king! Streaming ceremonial extra-wide orange ribbons and black ribbons from a chandelier, extending it off to the sides, creates a canopy effect under which the spells of costumed entities mingle in ghostly, ghoulish, or otherworldly enchantments. The white satin ribbon strapped mummy will look lavish among the guests, and will suddenly disappear amongst the long strings of ceremonial ribbons holding black and orange balloons. Ceremonialsupplies.com will enchant you with the perfect ceremonial ribbons for the gathering of all Halloweeners in anticipation of the stroke of midnight, upon which time the dead will openly blend and circulate among the living! They’ll appreciate the decorations in their honor and will let you know in their own, special way.
Full Bloom Thanksgiving NYC Cornucopias of Fall Colors
New Yorkers, like all people who live in seasonal climates, are alert and attentive to the first signs of autumn; it comes with the turning of leaves from green to yellows, oranges, reds, and browns and a mixture of a magical purple color. These colors, represented in different width sized ceremonial ribbons create an atmosphere ripe to feature the feast of Thanksgiving, celebrated on the last Thursday of November. It is a time of gathering and reinforcement for the coming long, dark, nights. Thanksgiving in NYC is a vibe like no other. The city is home to 9 million people from different religions, and different ethnic backgrounds that range from simple and honorable traditions, to cruel initiation challenges of death and killings. Somehow, someway, New Yorkers find a way to give thanks. Every day is a day of thanks, but all religious customs, and these are all based on ancient rituals of gratitude exchanged between humans and the world we live in, point to the month of November as one particularly dedicated to the acknowledgement of the end of a cycle; the celebration of a repetition already rushing toward us. Red continues to be a vibrant color during this season, in its tones of burgundies, rust, purples, greens, and browns. Giant bows, small bows or a mixed use of different sizes of ribbons using these deeper tones makes a great way to frame or highlight windows and doors, maintaining the continuity of the fall color décor. Not to mention that NYC skyscrapers favor these colors for the lighting that dominates the famous landscape at night; like the color of distant galaxies in space. Immerse your guests in the natural colors of the Thanksgiving season from feast to fast, and shop ceremonialsupplies.com for luxurious color ribbons that will vibrate to the tune of the season.
