| Hi guys,
I just wanted to wish everyone a very peaceful, fun filled and loving Bealteinne.
What is everyone doing to honour and celebrate this ancient festival?

| i didn't do any proper rites, however, i did feel something that day... like sort of being surrounded by this warm, thick steam, comforting and calming. it took away a weight i didn't even know i was carrying! | |

| Well, I meant running naked through the woods and mating with anyone of the opposite sex you come across... but hey lots of chocolate will do | |

| Fertility on all levels and all aspects, not just about producing physical offspring but also about creating the opportunity for the Mabon to enter your life. That's how I celebrate Bealteinne

| What's the Mabon? I've only heard that name as an Autumn festival. I, urum, celebrated by myself, that night. I was never entirely sure what it was about either, but kind of spent the day prancing around, going "I'min Hawaii I'min Hawaii!" It is so lush and wild where I am, it did for the day by itself. No chocolate for me, though. Hope you all had fun, and sorry this is a week late! | |

| The Mabon is the Divine Child, the offspring from the union of the God and Goddess, the balance of masculine and feminine, all things in each other and everything......... in essence 'he' is the gold of spiritual alchemy, the absolute balance.
The Great Rite is celebrated at Bealteinne, the coming together and union of the God and Goddess, male and female, masculine and feminine........ and we can honour this by recognising that physically, mentally or spiritually. But all spiritual purpose is to reach the state of balance, to become the Mabon.
