Blessed Beltane





Summer at Alberon


Last night the Wheel turned to Beltane. I dreamed long and slept late.
Now yesterday's rain has drifted away. Clear light-reflecting droplets sparkle off the trees here - tiny fire in the growing green.
This morning I am cutting into fluid silk of emerald green - the Lady's colour. Some time today it will become a dress for this new summer season.

I love this time of wholeness and heat. Now the Lord of Light joins with his Lady in the Great Rite.
This radiance of light and magnetism of love are all around us now.

Beltane is the traditional time to honour the creative process within ourselves and in the connected world without. The season calls us to love life freely and to embrace it passionately.

Energetically it lights the fire at the solar plexus, demanding we translate our dreams into action with passion and confidence. It lights the fire of the heart, demanding we connect and reconnect in trust and surrender to the force of love. It lights the fires in the head calling forth our unique creative expression.

Essentially Beltane demands we follow our calling - to love, to make and to Be.



May you find your Light in this Season
Thrice filled may you be:
Embraced by your lover
Enriched by all Life
Enlightened by one Spirit
Thrice Blessed this Beltane



The Great Rite

Through wild wood he came
teal eyed lover of mine
to stand shore-wise waiting
Clear of mind, open hearted
he called
anam carraigh come to me

Through sea-blue swell I came
oiled grey silk gleaming
to stand shore-wise breathing
Still of mind, open hearted
I called
anam carraigh love with me

Through days of ages
fields of being
we stand heart held singing
One of Mind, open hearted
We unite
anam carraigh we are Home
