With the upcoming celebration of Halloween on October 31, believers are getting ready to observe two consecutive days: All Saint’s Day and All Soul’s Day. These two holidays are commonly observed by practising Catholics, making them religious celebrations. However, you can observe the spiritual aspect of this holiday without adhering to the religious traditions connected to these days.

For cannabis enthusiasts, this means observing the days with the plant. Here are some ways you can honor these days with cannabis.

Celebrate the All Saints’ and All Souls Days with Cannabis

Meditate with Marijuana

These two celebrations hold religious connotations, which often require some sort of prayer. Whether you are the religious type or you simply want to observe these holidays for personal reasons, you will need to enter a meditative state in which you will be able to get in touch with your beliefs and traditions better. For many religions throughout history, marijuana plays an integral part in meditation.

From Hinduism and Buddhism to Chinese and even early Christian practices, experts assert that cannabis was used by our ancestors to enter a meditative state. In fact, early Indians were some of the first people to consume cannabis through drinking. Bhang lassi, a yogurt or milk drink infused with the plant, was traditionally consumed for meditation.

So, if you are a cannabis enthusiast who wants to combine this celebration with our beloved plant, you are certainly on track. This plant is known to elevate the mind by improving cognitive and creative functions, while also giving users a sense of calmness, a state of mind that is perfect for praying and meditating.

Get Together with Family and Friends

Aside from prayer through meditation, some families observe this holiday by getting together. Often this includes prayer, as well, but one thing is for sure: there will be food. If you are tired of eating out with your friends and family, you might want to whip up some dishes to serve to your guests.

Just like the early Indians, you can infuse your food and drinks with cannabis. If you prefer to eliminate the psychoactive effects of the plant, you also have the option to use CBD oil when cooking. This will give your cooking a cannabis twist while making sure that you and your guests will not be experiencing any mind-altering effects. You can also mix this with drinks you plan to serve.

By adding this ingredient, you can have a more energetic gathering, while enjoying a calmness that cannabidiol provides. This cannabinoid also has medicinal attributes making it a perfect addition to your recipes. Just make sure to inform your guests about your plan to include cannabis as some people may still have reservations about the plant.

Celebrate Your Own Way with Cannabis Products

If you plan to spend the day on your own but still observe the holiday, you have the luxury to celebrate it however you want. Aside from meditating to get in touch with your spiritual self in order to practice the religious aspects of the holidays, you can observe it by commemorating your deceased loved ones.

This is favorable especially if you do not adhere to the religious implications of the celebration. You can do this by listening to their favorite songs, looking back on your memories with them and even making art about them.

Being spiritual does not necessarily equate to being religious. If you are a marijuana enthusiast who wants to observe these days in your own special way, then cannabis can definitely help you create your own traditions for All Saints’ and All Souls’ Days.

In the past week, Canada entered the second phase of its cannabis legalization. Now, more than ever, the country is focusing its efforts towards improving recreational marijuana for the whole market.

While Canadian regulators were quick to provide input and legislations with using marijuana leaves and CBD products, the government seemingly took some time in coming out with regulations for cannabis-derived products, such as CBD oil edibles, vaping products, and even beverages.

Now that there are new rules in place, individuals who are just getting used to the laws in place might be a bit confused now that there are more products on the market. If you are one of these individuals, make sure to read ‘til the end to know what you can expect during the second wave of marijuana legalization in Canada.

What Exactly is Cannabis 2.0?

In a nutshell, Canada’s cannabis 2.0 is the second phase of marijuana legalization in the country. In particular, the Canadian government finally approved marijuana derivates into the market. Under this new wave, the market already welcomed a slew of cannabis edibles, CBD extracts, vaping pens and paraphernalia, and beverages. The second installment came one year after the country finally legalized recreational marijuana use.

What Phase 2 Means for Canada

This momentous occasion marks Canada’s foray into a wider market and newer product categories available to the public. By exploring this relatively untapped market, Canada’s marijuana industry could reach up to a whopping 2.7 billion Canadian dollars.

At the same time, this new venture means more attractive business opportunities not just for individuals in the nation, but also for interested companies who are looking to invest in the country. More than this, the second phase of legalizations brings increased awareness not just to the benefits of using recreational marijuana derivatives, but also to the implications of using these cannabis products as part of daily life.

Things to Expect from Cannabis 2.0

• Cannabis Products to Grace the Market

Although it may be quite obvious, it is still worth noting that the Canadian market is slated to welcome more cannabis products onto its already growing sector. Some of the highly anticipated products on the market included edibles, beverages, vaping goods and accessories, and the like.

Though the public will be on their toes in anticipation of new goods on the market, potential customers and businesses alike can expect trepidation when it comes to using vapes, especially after numerous health scares and vaping-related illnesses in various parts of the United States and even Canada. Medical professionals believe that when vaped, marijuana oils could potentially have a harmful effect, which is why further studies in the field need to be conducted.

• Different Market Strategies

Individuals who are anticipating new businesses who sought approval from the Canadian health government can expect the employment of different marketing strategies. For example, Aurora Cannabis aims to provide its goods – including concentrates, edibles, and vapes – at a more affordable rate while still preserving its use of high-quality marijuana.

At the core of this company is its expansive range of edibles, with baked goods, chocolates, and gummies taking lead to invite consumers to take part in their offerings. Alongside this, the company maintains that its ability to produce numerous goods and meet market demands will set it apart from other competitors in the field.

• Delayed Public Launches

Granted the marketability of these goods holds so much potential, audiences awaiting production for these items can expect a delay in public launches. For one, companies who applied for their licenses must wait 60 days to be approved by Health Canada. Not to mention, there are still inspections and assessments to be made within the industry.

Are you ready to watch these historic events unfold? Keep your eyes peeled for new cannabis derivatives and you might just be lucky enough to score one once these roll out in stores near you.
