Ways to Celebrate Beltane

Spend Time Outside

Beltane is celebrated outside, surrounded by nature. Sing, dance and be merry.

Light a Fire

Have a bonfire or light a candle. Fires were lit during traditional Beltane celebrations, and remain a key component today.

Green

Wear green, bring green into your home. Allow the vitality of the colour green to refresh and nurture you.

Commit

This is a time of sacred union. What can you commit to? A person, a new practice, a new habit, a new way of showing up.

Use this time to commit, or recommit, to those things that are important to you.

Create Something New

Spend some time tapping into your intuition, and use your passion to bring a new project to life.

Everything Flowers

Bring flowers into your home, make a flower crown, create a daisy chain, plant some flowers, give some flowers to a friend.

Refresh Your Altar

Add some red to your altar to tap into the energy of passion, and add some green to represent the fresh starts.

Honour The Hawthorn

Hawthorn is the tree of Beltane.

Dance with it sing with it, hang ribbons from it. The ribbons represent wishes, but make sure you use something will not damage the tree or environment, think (fast) biodegradable ribbons.
