Welcome to May. The season of Beltane, when the position on the wheel of the year marks the halfway point between the spring equinox and the summer solstice.

Beltane is a time of growth.

A time to stoke our creative fire held deep within our bellies.

A time to celebrate optimism and life.

A time to frolic like a randy squirrel.

Take time to notice what is happening in Mother Nature’s world. Listen for Spring Peepers …

or for the call of a Pileated Woodpecker deep within a wooded area.

Look up and watch for Chimney Swifts darting across the sky. Their unique chittering call is another way to identify them.

Look down and catch the growth going on at your feet.

Spend some time by a river and watch for the herons.

Delight in the blessings Mother Nature offers as the wheel of the year spins and the dance continues.

Blessed Beltane.

Blessed be :]

Mi manchi profondamente, mio ​​amato immortale.
