Right fellow Silkysteppers, seeing as there has been a little interest in this festival, I have done some homework.
Actually I have written an essay on it!!!!
:sorry: If any of you would like to learn some more about the event, then here's a link:
Beltane Festival
As the posts are limited in the amount of words you can input, and due to the volume of info I found, it has run to 3 posts!!!!
Thanks to Ruthierhyme, it has now been merged into one linked post - Thanks
It is interesting and worth a read though. (I
would say that after typing over 122,000 words for your interest!:rotfl:)
Anyway, I hope I can shed some light on the event (no pun intended) and if you do happen to celebrate, please let us know how you did.
