I’m reading this post a day late (May 2nd). I had already decided to spend the day in the garden but didn’t have any specific plans. Now, thanks to you I will be “meditating, touching the soil, listening to the birds and smelling the new green growth. I’m going to give thanks for the health and strength of my body, and then I’m going to bring a branch of blossoms {or some cherry blossoms that have fallen} into my home.” And if I’m not too shy at dusk, well, I’ll give the dancing a try, too.

Lovely, lovely post, Tess. Beltane is completely new to me. I learn so much from you. Yes, I echo kigen’s comment — you have an eco-spiritual understanding of life. Happy May to you.

I have been a big fan of Loreena McKennit’s music for a long time and thank you for sharing this wonderful clip of her performance. BTW, I’m still dancing on 02/05 …

Blessed Beltane! Was there ever a better day to dance?

Thank you for joining the dance party! I love Loreena and am grooving along with you as I sit here and listen.

@Genie Sea: welcome, thanks for visiting and dancing.
@Blisschick: well of course you know the very first thing I did when I read your comment was run to Amazon and look up Missing Mary. I’d heard of the author in another context I can’t now remember, but the book went into my shopping cart immediately!
@Christine: thank you for the comment and of course for the linky love, and congrats again on your three-year blogaversary.
@kigen: ‘eco-spiritual’. I like that. Hmmm, I may have to make more of that phrase here. It’s very important to me. I belong to a group called Greenspirit (http://www.greenspirit.org.uk/index.shtml) whose ethos I like very much.
@Lissa: I’m glad you found it a beautiful lesson, and thanks so much for visiting and commenting.
