Beltane High Tea
The History of Beltane
May 1. In the northern hemisphere, this quarter day marks the traditional (as opposed to the astrological) beginning of Summer. It is colloquially called May Day, Floralia, and Walpurgis Night. The word Beltane loosely translates to “bright fire” and it is the beginning of the “Light Half of the Year” for the Fae.
​
For the Fae, this is the time of year where the seat of power changes hands to the Seelie Court, and they will be in their strength until Samhain. It is a major holiday, celebrated with maypoles, flower baskets & tea.
