The Wheel of the Year turns once more, as Solstice’s magic fades and the seasons begin to change. There are powerful blessings on this ancient Celtic holy day of feasting, fire, and thanksgiving. Named for the vow the Shining God Lugh made to His mother Taitliu, it is an ancient crossroads that celebrates the First Harvest.

Arise, dearly beloved ones, and let us make merry this happy Midsummer’s Day! Join me today, for I wish you a blessed Litha! May our magic rise up, shine, and, as our ancestors taught, bring healing, joy, and transformation.

Tonight is a powerful magical cusp, as we come to this holy threshold. The Wheel of the Year now turns, and in the Northern Hemisphere, the Light reaches its climax. Let us celebrate joyful Midsummer’s Eve together.

Merry Meet! Today is one of the holiest, happiest, most beautiful celebrations in our sacred year! It is Beltane in the Northern Hemisphere (and Blessed Samhain below the equator). The veil between the worlds is most thin, and our ancient alliances with the Faery world, as well as Nature, are honored. May joy be yours.

Now gather round and prepare for this most holy and joyful sacred celebration! Tonight is May Eve, also known as Walpurgis Night. There is powerful, Earthy magic flowing in all things at this cross-quarter between Spring and Summer, when we celebrate burgeoning life and Nature’s wild, unrestrained beauty. Rejoice!
