Feel joy in this time because of the Earth itself and the Blessings of our home. On October…

  Can I give you what you need  as a wish giver? I may and will so, for what you truly need will given. So mode it be, through the source of all. Wiccan. Now enter the time of darkness, May first.

This week, we celebrate Beltane! Beltane occurs on Friday, May 1.  It's a festival of Fertility and Love as we welcome the flowering of Nature's Return. In our mythology Beltane represents the Mating of the Goddess and the God. It's The Original White Wedding!

           One of Tree, one of falling leaf. Teach all of Wicca of life in the circle. Of spring and the beginning and of new life coming forth; our youth and childhood as is your will. And tell us of summer, a child no longer, in the full green leaf of young adulthood. Teach now of autumn, the changing colors beautiful, rich and showing the wisdom as you change, in the beginning of the fall. Falling to the earth, in the way of the spirit and faith, as elders becoming and glad to be so. And…
