april showers bring may flowers...woke, went outside and put my hands in the strawberry patch to pick up some morning dew to rub softly on my face. a gaelic ritual for this first day of may.
the welcoming of a fertile year and may day.
see this interesting link about beltane, the pagan version and symbolic meaning of May 1st:

i like the "Beltane is also about being naked. Not necessarily nakedness of the body, but nakedness of the soul, of removing the veils we put up between the world and our true self: even of removing the veils we put up to hide our true desires from ourselves"
may your day be filled with joyful abandon
So much kitty love to you, Julie. Happy May Day, thanks for the blog, the insight, the sharing.
ReplyDeleteSee you tomorrow night at Beltane.
