Blessed Beltane - 1st May 2025

Beltane is the cross-quarter day that marks the mid-point in Spring. We are now half way between the Spring Equinox & the Summer Solstice.

At the Spring Equinox new life was just beginning to emerge. But here, at the beginning of May, there is no denying that the Earth has been reborn.

Beltane pulses with the vibrant energy of life, renewal, and passion. Celebrated at the height of spring, it marks a time when the natural world is bursting into bloom and the earth feels alive with possibility.

This ancient festival is infused with fire, fertility, and connection—between people, nature, and spirit.

The energy of Beltane is playful yet powerful, encouraging us to embrace joy, ignite creativity, and honor the sacred dance of growth and transformation. It’s a season of blossoming dreams, when we step boldly into the light and celebrate the warmth and abundance returning to our lives.

To celebrate Beltane you can carry these crystals;

Ruby in Fushite to balance masculine and feminine energy

Aventurine- for fertility, growth and a positive outlook

Emerald- For passion and commitment to plans ahead

Bloodstone- for Vitality, courage and manifesting your desires

Here’s some wonderful questions to ask yourself at this time of year …

1. What is bringing you great joy right now?

1. What do you feel inspired to devote your spring energy toward?

2. What parts of yourself do you feel most confident about? Where do you need to boost your self-confidence?

3. What do you hope to grow in your life?

Celebrate Beltane;

🌼 Flower power your home 🌼

Decorate your home with yellow and orange flowers

The Beltane tradition of decorating with yellow and orange flowers seems to be another form of fire symbolism. If you can’t manage an actual bonfire, adorning your home with a beautifully bright bouquet of yellow flowers to honor the element of fire is a great alternative.

☀️ Make sun water ☀️

Sun water is basically water that has been charged under the sun. Since Beltane is a fire-festival honoring the growing sun, making sun water seems particularly appropriate as a Beltane ritual. Here’s how to do it.

Fill a jar with water and pop the lid on.

Hold the jar and set an intention or even just say a prayer over the water. Since we are making Beltane sun water, I’d focus on what I’m trying to grow or accomplish this season: Hold your water in your hands and focus on your intention. Speak it out loud if that helps, and visualize success. Really feel into it.

Charge your water in the sunlight for 24 hours -as it’s a new moon at the same time you will get a perfectly balanced energetic double whammy!

And that’s it! use it in a bath, sprinkle or spray it around a space you want to cleanse, or water your house plants with it.

Beltane is a celebration honoring nature’s incredibly fertile energy at this time of year.

Nature has an amazing ability to reproduce itself, and in such a stunning & beautiful way. It’s important to honor this power that nature holds – a power that we, as humans, also hold. Right now, when the Earth is bursting with fertile energy, is a powerful time to acknowledge & celebrate the fertility inherent in all life.

Happy Beltane everyone! Xxx
