Beltane 2009

Making the Greenman and the decoration for the maypole.

















Jumping the fire for fertility and good fortune for the year to come. (This is actually done at the end of the celebratory rituals)





















The ladies trying to "deflock" the Greenman and him chasing us (another fertility symbol) - and yes I squealed when he chased me lol. And dancing around the maypole to raise the sun and bring in the summer season.
