Taphimba Aselote akale ndikukhazikitsidwa kwa Ufumu Woyera wa Roma. Titha kupitilirabe, tsopano, ndikusintha kwa All Hallow's Eve. Mukudziwa, ngakhale tchuthi chachikhristu chitha kukhala pamavuto pazaka zambiri. Zowonadi, poyambirira, samatha kusankha nthawi yakukondwerera.

Tidamva m'nkhani yomaliza kuti Papa Gregory I adakhazikitsa All Hallows Eve, koma zinali zovuta kugwira madera onse aufumu. Papa Boniface IV adatcha Tsiku la Oyera Mtima Lonse pa Meyi 13, 610 CE ngati tsiku lodziwikiratu kwa iwo omwe adafera chikhulupiriro chawo osavomerezedwa ndi tchalitchicho. Pambuyo pake m'zaka za zana lachisanu ndi chiwiri holideyo idasunthidwa mpaka Novembala 1 ndi Papa Gregory Wachitatu kuti atsatire All Hallows Eve. Tsiku la Oyera Mtima onse, kwakanthawi, amatchedwa Hallowmas. All Hallows Eve idakhala All Hallows Even yomwe idafupikitsidwa kukhala Hallowe'en.

Pamene tchalitchichi chimapitilira kupondereza Aselote ndi moto wawo ndi chisangalalo, chinthu chimodzi chabwino chomwe chidachitika panthawiyi ndikusiya nsembe. Aselote sangakhulupirire kuti azimitsa moto, koma adasiya kuwotcha anthu ndi nyama pamoto. Akhrisitu amangogwirizira chilango cha imfa pomwe chimavomerezedwa ndi tchalitchi. Inalinso nthawi imeneyi, pomwe Akhristu pamapeto pake adayikanso zikhulupiriro zawo mokwanira kutsimikizira Aselote kuti kufunika kwa moto kulipo kuti satana akhalepo m'malo molemekeza nyengo.

Tsopano, tiwonjezere tsiku lina lokondwerera kuti tiganizire lomwe lingagwere nthawi yomweyo. Ngakhale pali kutsutsana kwakanthawi kuti zidachitika liti, akuganiza kuti mu 988 CE Tsiku Lonse la Miyoyo lidakondwerera koyamba ndi Abenedictine abbot Woyera Odilo. Idayikidwa pa Novembala 2 ngati tsiku lina kupempherera iwo omwe adakanikira ku Purigatoriyo (zikuwoneka kuti amafunikira masiku ambiri kupempherera anthu osaukawo). Tikudziwa kuti munali mu 1000 CE pomwe Papa Sylvester II adavomereza mwambowu.

Pakapita nthawi, mpingo wachikhristu udakumana ndi vuto lawo loyamba. Ngakhale kuti ufumu wa Roma unali utapita kalekale, Tchalitchi ndi Papa anali, komabe, akulamulirabe. Panali pa Halowini mu 1517 pomwe Martin Luther adayambitsa zomwe zimadziwika kuti kusintha kwa Chiprotestanti. Achiprotestanti anali osagwiritsanso ntchito njira zachikunja zakale kuposa Tchalitchi cha Katolika, komabe amapitilizabe kuchita zikondwerero zam'masiku. Panali china chake chomwe chinali chokhazikika kwambiri mwakuti amangopitiliza kukondwerera kutha kwa nyengo yokolola. Mwina, zinali chabe chifukwa chakuti amafunikira kupumula kumapeto kwa ntchito yonseyo. Mwinanso chinali china chomwe chidawayitanira pamlingo wokulirapo.

Nthawi yochulukirapo idadutsa ndipo mbiri ya tchuthi chathu, limodzi ndi mbiri yonseyi, imasokonekera m'mibadwo yamdima, Khoti Lalikulu lamilandu komanso kuyambika kwa mayesero a mfiti mdziko lonse lapansi. Aka kanali koyamba kuti mfiti ziyanjane ndi Halowini. Matsenga achikhalidwe ndi miyambo ina idayamba pakati pa anthu ndikuwonongedwa kwa gulu lachi Druid. Ochiritsa amphamvu ndi opanga zithumwa anali kufunidwa pafupipafupi ndi anthu am'mudzimo akamavutika. Kuwombeza inali gawo lofunikira pazochita zawo ndipo adagwiritsa ntchito malingaliro ndi mphamvu za Halowini komanso kupindika kwa chophimba kuneneratu zamtsogolo ndikulankhulanso ndi akufa mobisa. Ndipo ngakhale ambiri amafunafuna amuna ndi akazi anzeru kuti apeze thandizo, amathanso kuloza zala mwachangu kwambiri ngati machiritsowo sagwira ntchito ndikuimba mlandu wochiritsayo. Unali ntchito yowopsa kunena pang'ono!

Tikudziwa kuti mbiri yakale yapakamwa idasunga miyambo ina m'mitima mwa anthu ngakhale nthawi yoyipa kwambiri m'mbiri yathu, ndipo chifukwa chomwe tikudziwira izi ndikuti pamene anthu aku Europe adayamba kuwoloka nyanja kupita ku America , tangoganizani chomwe chinayambanso kukwera? Halowini idapulumuka paulendo wovutayi ndipo idayamba kugawira madera osiyanasiyana, ndikuchita zinthu zatsopano ndikugwiritsabe ntchito kuyambira kale. Koma izo… ndi za nthawi ina.

Tatsala pang'ono kufika kumapeto kwa ulendo wathu. Ndikukhulupirira kuti mwakhala mukusangalala ndiulendowu kudzera m'mbiri ya tchuthi chomwe timakonda. Bweraninso ndi ine sabata yamawa pamene tidzatsatira Halowini kuyambira masiku atsamunda mpaka masiku ano ku United States!
