What is Beltane?

Observed on May 1st, Beltane marks the halfway point between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice. It is a day blooming with fertility, creativity, and new beginnings, embodying the vibrant energy of the season. Fertility rites, joyful dances around the Maypole, flower garlands, and warm, crackling bonfires are all ways we celebrate the fertile land and our connection to it.

This is a time for:

  • Union and Harmony – Celebrate love, whether in relationships, family, or the balance of masculine and feminine energies within yourself.
  • Lighthearted Revelry – Dance, sing, and create rituals that fill your heart with joy.
  • Community and Connection – Share blessings with others, from giving May baskets to honoring sacred groves and water sources.
  • Magic and Renewal – Invoke spells of passion, love, harmony, and prosperity under the Beltane fire's glow.
