Beltane

Beltane (April 30th-may 1st) is one of the four major Celtic festivals of the year and marks the beginning of Summer. The Goddess is decked in green and her wells and springs are believed to be at their most fertile and magical.

(The Malvina Well used in this image was sculpted by Rose Garrard and can be found in the centre of Great Malvern,Worcestershire.)

Beltane belongs to the following groups:

1 In The Beginning - Ancient Practices, Faerie World, Fantasy Art, Myths, Legends, and Fairy Tales, Practising the Dark Arts, Spiritual Art, Symbolism in Art and The Healing Journey

    Thankyou everyone :-)

    The carved pilars were photographed at Kilpeck Chapel in Herefordshire, England.One of the oldest chapels in the country and which is still awash with Celtic and Pagan symbolism,from a time where the Old ways and the New religion were still entwined.
