Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! Flat Creek in November, 2024. Much changed by the force of the hurricane floods in Sept. 2024. The deck of the bridge is now under that pile of debris.

Beltane

 Happy May First!

...an ancient celebration of spring from the traditions of those who honor and live with the earth seasons!




I will be joining a group of women this afternoon to dance a May Pole, enjoy the flowers, and recite some old wise words for the earth and those who love her.

Today's quote:

"Holy persons draw to themselves all that is earthly. . . .
The earth is at the same time mother,
She is mother of all that is natural,
mother of all that is human.
She is the mother of all,
for contained in her
are the seeds of all.
Greetings to you, lovely and loving Mother!"
