1st May
Fresh growth covers the ground, juicy and lush. The air is abuzz with busy bees and the Earth is decked out in her prettiest flower dress - it's the wedding day of the Goddess and the young Sun God. Fully grown and fertile they join in loving union. Nature is celebrating with them and everywhere, love is in the air. The fires of Bel are lit and people join the wedding feast of the May King and Queen, jumping the fires to purify their souls and showing the corn how high to grow.
Beltane is a time to celebrate love and life and the marvellous miracle of fertility. It is a time of divine ecstasy - full of potential yet to take shape.
Magical collections
Fire ~ Action, will-power, creativity, insight, initiative, courage, drive, enthusiasm.
Air ~ Ideas, concepts, thought, knowledge, mental powers, logos, reason, visualisation, understanding.
HOW TO BURN INCENSE:
Place a self-igniting charcoal disc on a fire-proof surface. The charcoal disks can be ignited simply by holding a match or lighter to the rim. When the entire disc is glowing red hot it is ready to use and you can place a little pinch of incense on top
