A formula of blended Herbs and Resins created this amazing incense mixture for the celebration of the Sabbat Beltane / Beltaine – FERTILITY AND FIRE.
As the weather heats up and the plants of the world burgeons with life, an exuberant mood prevails. Folk dance around the Maypole, emblem of fertility (the name “May” comes from a Norse word meaning “to shoot out new growth”). We come to celebrate a day of fertility and abundance, full of revelry, feasting and merrymaking in honor of the budding crops and new growth all around us. Festivities of dancing around the Maypole and leaping over the ritual of fire in joyful celebration.
May 1st was the midpoint of a five-day Roman festival to Flora, Goddess of Flowers. The name “Beltaine” means “Bel’s Fires”; in Celtic lands, cattle were driven between bonfires to bless them, and people leaped the fires for luck. The association in Germany of May Eve with Witches’ gatherings is a memory of pre-Christian tradition. “Wild” water (dew, flowing streams or ocean water) is collected as a basis for healing drinks and potions for the year to come.
For those of other paths and traditions it is the time of all Goddesses & Gods of Fertility and Fire.
