Introduction :
Every year we celebrate Beltane on 1st
May, it is the last of the three spring fertility festivals, the others
being Imbolc and Ostara. Beltane meaning bright fire or lucky fire, it
is celebrated with feasts and rituals. In old Celtic traditions it was a
time of unabashed sexuality and promiscuity where marriages of a year
and a day could be undertaken but it is rarely observed in that manner
in modern times. However on May eve, bless your garden in the old way by
making love with your lover in it. Make a wish as you jump a bonfire or
candle flame for good luck and make the day more memorable.
