Beltane & Maypole
April 30, 2023
This Sunday we will learn more about Beltane & the traditions of the maypole.
“The Gaelic May Day festival, Beltane, is traditionally observed on the first of May and falls between the spring equinox and summer solstice in the northern hemisphere. To celebrate, people adorn their homes with May flowers, make May bushes, light bonfires, visit holy wells, and feast!”
