Beltane Day
The Festival of Flowers, and the welcoming of the good spirits of the dearly departed and the friendly sprites and fairy-folk of previous ages. It is immensely lucky when it occurs during a New Moon or Full Moon cycle between the 1st and the 5th days of May. This Sabbat marks the “coupling” of the God and the Goddess, and is most favorable to fertility, and the conceiving of merry-be-gots or, love-children who are happy and often fortunate in life despite not having been born in traditional wedlock. This is a time for creativity and the exulting in one’s natural gifts and talents.
