🍃May Eve Flower Offering🕊🌱🌳
🍃With ye month of May upon us, my heart fills with such wonder. Why, May is not only the month of the fae, it be the month we celebrate Bealtaine which is the greeting of summer, and all she offers.
🕊In celebration and gratitude, I have created a little flower mandala, made from a kind offering from the faery folks favourite Lily of the Valley bush, Cherry blossom Tree and the whispering Willow Tree.🍃I shall leave my mandala as a May Eve offering to all the elementals and nature spirits, as the veil between the worlds shall be thinning in May.
🍃And, as I stood bare footed upon the grass listening to the birds and feeling the gentle drops of spring rain, there be such an earthy scent filling the air.🍃Why, if for only a moment in time I felt such an inner peace and a deep connection to our dear old Mother Earth🍃
🍃Another lovely little ceremony that I like to do on the eve of May Day, is to leave a glass or jug of cold water outside over night. Making sure mind, that I place the glass or jug where it will meet with the morning sunrise. The suns first glorious rays on May Day morn will energise the water, so the water is perfect for drinking or washing with🍃
May Day Eve blessings 🧚
