Our Beltane Celebration
Yesterday was Beltane, but DH (darling husband) was feeling really sick so we decided to celebrate it this Saturday instead. This Saturday is the Super Moon, or the biggest full moon of the year. Since Beltane is about fertility we are transplanting my seedlings then, even though it is a full moon. We are both sick today, which is why we decided to give ourselves some more time before our celebration. One of the things I love about Paganism is that dates aren't "set in stone," like they are in Christianity.
