BELTANE `
Hope everyone is enjoying… well you know, life!
It’s all around in the southern hemisphere…Life that is, the birds, the bees, the flowers turning and opening towards the sun. Days are longer, enjoying animal /creature watching at this time of year, the snakes are very active due to the warmth.
Had 2 red bellied blacks find a spot near the porch, sunning themselves on the rocks.
The insects have made their return, Dragonfly’s and butterflies everywhere.
Also my least fav ….spiders …..
Spring has always been my favored time of the year. After winter, it’s so alive.
Celebrating the return of the sun.
This time of year always reminds me of the THE EMPRESS in the tarot.
Enjoying the sun outside, laying on the earth amongst the flowers. She’s rocking out and gives no shits.
Coming out of the cave after the cold of winter. A celebration of life and creativity. Ready to give birth to new ideas/creations that have been growing & percolating through the rest period.
The seasons all have their reasons. We learn, we grow, we let go. The wheel turns always.
I try and follow the seasons because it makes more sense. Nature and animals are the biggest teachers.
I was going to do a ritual yesterday after I did some cleaning (Seriously that probably was the ritual…spring dusting & cleaning ) My intention was to make a altar for Beltane, but I had a nana nap instead.Oh well !!
That’s the thing, do it when it feels right. As I’m writing this, I’m watching the swallows checking out the porch rafters, I think they are looking to build some new nests? They have their nests in the big shed.
Maybe looking for a change of scenery? Doing their own spring cleaning maybe? Beautiful day for it anyway!
As the wheel continues to turn,until next time, may the lightness and fire of Beltane fill you.
May the Force be with you :)
