Beltane (Patreon)

This year Spring is really cold in Scotland. Weather was not good enough to have a Beltane bonfire so except for nice nature walk we celebrated indoors. Our altar focuses on the fairies. They used to live in the garden but falling apples broke their wings in autumn. I fixed them up before Beltane and decided to give one of my fairies a makeover. I used nail varnish to paint the wings, hair and flower crown. I am not sure if we will put them outside this year or not. I'm still thinking about it. 

This year the last true night of the spring fell on Walpurgis Night. We took down the moon sun catcher and hang it over the altar to mark this transition. We also had  a lovely evening walk few days before Walpurgis Night to enjoy last of the night before it returns in August.
