Beltane Fire: Igniting Passion & Creativity in Life
Soulful Sundays Digest April 27, 2025
As the wheel of the year turns, we arrive at Beltane, the Celtic fire festival that falls on May 1st, also celebrated as May Day. This cross-quarter sabbat sits between the Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice—a threshold moment when spring matures into summer and the earth is bursting with life, color, and fertile potential. In ancient times, Beltane was a celebration of vitality, passion, fertility, and union. Communities would gather to light sacred fires, leap over flames for purification and blessings, weave ribbons around the maypole, and celebrate love, sensuality, and the blossoming of the land. It was both a spiritual and earthy celebration—honoring the divine spark within all things and the joy of being fully alive.

"The relationship you have with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have." —Jane Travis
Take a moment to reflect on the quote above from Jane Travis. How you speak to yourself, how you honor your needs, and how you show yourself love and kindness directly shape the relationships in your life.
