Will there be nakid dancing around the May Pole to the north of me? :biglaugh:

Beltane or Walpurgis Night is the festival centering around the planting of crops and fertility as I remember.

In Satanic circles who are less concerned with the cycles of nature but more with the machinations of evil it is refered to as Grand Climax. Additionally every 28 years when the Satanic calander revolves it culminates in a year long series of celebrations of evil known as "The Feast of the Beast" The next one by the way is 2009 next year...... :evildenk:

Just in time for the elections where we will crown a new beast........ :blink:

No nekkid dancing up here WhiteDove.

The last of the snow just melted a few days ago.

Still colder than a witch's ****.

If we're lucky -- the long johns will be *retired* for the year, in another month or so.

Thus saith the Lord of the Frozen Chosen.

(I would that you were HOT or COLD).

Obviously -- we have been chosen to be COLD! :biglaugh:

Im no neopagan but Happy Beltane to you all as well

---It is one of the great times of the year where I am, and always reminds me of this old Tull song

"Cup Of Wonder"

May I make my fond excuses

for the lateness of the hour,

but we accept your invitation, and we bring you Beltane's flower.

For the May Day is the great day, sung along the old straight track.

And those who ancient lines did lay

will heed the song that calls them back.

Pass the word and pass the lady, pass the plate to all who hunger.

Pass the wit of ancient wisdom, pass the cup of crimson wonder.

Ask the green man where he comes from, ask the cup that fills with red.

Ask the old grey standing stones that show the sun its way to bed.

Question all as to their ways,

and learn the secrets that they hold.

Walk the lines of nature's palm

crossed with silver and with gold.

Pass the cup and pass the lady, pass the plate to all who hunger.

Pass the wit of ancient wisdom, pass the cup of crimson wonder.

Join in black December's sadness,

lie in August's welcome corn.

Stir the cup that's ever-filling

with the blood of all that's born.

But the May Day is the great day, sung along the old straight track.

And those who ancient lines did lay

will heed this song that calls them back.

Pass the word and pass the lady, pass the plate to all who hunger.

Pass the wit of ancient wisdom, pass the cup of crimson wonder.
