Beltane Blessings

[mumofeight]

Wishing you all the blessings of Beltane

And to you

(although I'm not celebrating it personally until the astrological date of 5th May)

I may have to join you on the 5th then StG - DS has the mouth sores again so I ain't gonna be having much time for anything for a few days

Happy Beltane Mo8

Pretty much what you did last year would cover it

Sorry, I'll try to be serious now. Apart from the sex there are other things you can do.

I've cut and pasted this from an email I sent to someone asking the same question

Beltane - a fertility festival but also a festival of clearance, getting rid of the last vestiges of winter. One of the elements of Beltane is the Beltane fires. If you can, have a bonfire, it symbolises the clearing of the old and the coming of the new. If you can't then light candles instead.

The children can collect fresh flowers (especially May blossom) and other symbols of Spring/Summer. Wear bright colours, put flowers in your hair, enjoy! One of the most important things is to have lots of fun, especially the children - imagine running in the fields, collecting flowers, enjoying the sun. Children are the future and Beltane is about looking forward.

Happy belated Beltane! This is my favourite time of year - so fresh and full of spirit. Got a 6 week old lo so didn't get out to do my usual thing this year but he's so worth it! My own little affirmation of life. x
