The Mini Witch's Guide to Beltane Holiday covers Beltane Holiday deities and Beltane Holiday flowers with Plants By Laurali! This witchy holiday is associated with bonfires, maypoles, the May Queen, and floral decorations. Get ready to wear flowers in your hair!
When I think of Beltane Holiday, I think of weddings, wearing flower crowns, and decorating with ribbons! Beltane is one of those holidays that makes you want to celebrate life.
Most of all, Beltane Holiday makes me think of the fairies! This time of year, the nature spirits emerge and show their true colors. You might see them in the garden, walking around your neighborhood, or at your local park.
The flower fairies become more prevalent this time of year due to the Spring Equinox! When the days get warmer, the veil between the natural world and the fairy realm becomes thinner, allowing moments of clarity to shine through. This makes for the optimal time to spot a fairy or gnome!
I take nature walks several times a week, during which I often converse with nature spirits. I usually feel a warm, sparkly energy when I’m around them. They are easy to talk to, and I feel like I can tell them anything.
If working with the fairies is something you are keen to do, this is the optimal time of year to do it! The nature spirits live in flower blooms, dwell in trees, and tend to gardens. However, let it be known that they will expect something in return.
Fairies don’t work for free! They might inspire you to pick up trash, plant a garden, deadhead a flower, or wear living flower barettes. They enjoy sweet, sparkly offerings like honey, nectar, gemstones, and bells that chime.
But that’s just one aspect of the Beltane Holiday! This holiday is often associated with love, romance, and celebration. I associate Beltane with the four of wands tarot card!
The Beltane holiday brings us that much closer to summertime and all that goes along with it! Think late spring and early summer. Think long, languishing days and magical summer nights!
The Mini Witch’s Guide to Beltane Holiday
Welcoming Beltane Holiday means inviting the early days of summer into warm settings! This witchy holiday represents fertility, abundance, and renewal. It’s a period when the light increases upon the earth!
I consider this a time when romance is in bloom! There might be weddings to attend, romantic moments with the one you love, and love is in the air.
I also think of Beltane as a holiday of passion, as it is associated with fire symbolism! Fire, much like the sun, clarifies and burns things off. It ignites the spark within!
You might find yourself in a forward momentum during this time. During this season of life, you’ll feel motivated, inspired, and ready to take on the world!
The increased light and longer days make for more time to do the things you love and enjoy. You might spend more time in the garden, taking spring hikes, and camping under the stars. It makes you want to spend more time outdoors!
In this case, you might like to try the Hiking Pretty Spell for Natural Beauty and Attractiveness! Beltane makes you feel like the belle of the ball, bringing out your natural beauty and charms. It’s a great time to practice glamour magick!
This is why working with the fairies is essential this time of year! The fairies are shapeshifters, and they can help transform your look, wardrobe, and style in a fun, whimsical way.
When I think of Beltane deities, I immediately think of the fairy queen! Goddess Aine is an Irish fairy queen associated with summer, flower magick, and fertility. She denotes all things Beltane, including that divine spark within!
If you ever find yourself lacking inspiration and faith, Aine is the fairy queen you most want to call on! She will give you the courage to take a leap of faith and believe in yourself.
When Beltane comes around, think early summer magick with a sprinkle of springtime! Beltane tends to bring out the nostalgia within us. You might find yourself doing some inner child healing, as well as enjoying childhood magic pastimes.
