It's Beltane!

It's the first of May which means it's the mid-way point between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice. Some say this is when the increasing light of each day seems to get faster, when the sunrise appears even quicker towards it's fastest point South on the horizon.

It's when the energy of Spring tends to increase in energy. Things bloom faster, plants grow more, love begins to fill the air.

I love celebrating these points in the year as it connects me to the larger bodies of the earth and planets in the sky. We're all orbiting around something, tilted on our own axis, lining up with other things along the way.

At the time of Beltaine, I think about the intentions I set 6 weeks ago at the Spring Equinox, what I hope to grow from the seeds that were laying fallow all winter. What has sprouted up, what's growing quickly, what could use more fertilizer or a different watering regimen. This pertains to both my physical garden but also the garden of my inner life.

I'm also looking forward to the Summer, where the light of the day will shine on everything. Where all will come into the light. What can I do to make the most of the next 6 weeks as the energy of the earth will increase?

What can you do to make the most of this time for yourself?
