Celebrations will be starting soon.  If you don’t have anything special planned yet, you can still make this time special with a couple of these simple activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Start off your Beltane celebration with an early morning walk through a local  park or forest.  This can lift the spirit and be fun for everyone,  humans and pets alike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gather up some plants or flowers to display in your home. \u00a0They will remind you \u00a0of the Earth’s fertility and the blessings \u00a0that lay ahead. When I was young, my mom would take us out to gather flowers on April 30th. My siblings and I would make paper baskets, fill them with the flowers we picked and leave them on the doorstep of friends and neighbors on May day. It was a wonderful way to share the blessings of the season!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mom and daughter or friends could braid each others hair and  weave in a few tender blossoms.  And be sure to buy or make a special loaf of bread or  treats for your feast. You’ll find a few recipe suggestions, along with  activities for children, sabbat lore and traditions on our <\/a>Beltane holiday page.   <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are in the southern hemisphere, visit our Samhain holiday page <\/a> for traditions, lore, activities and recipes  for that sabbat.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever season you are celebrating in your part of the world, I hope your holiday is a wonderful one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Peace and health be with you,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
