Beltane

In the Celtic year, Beltane is a month of beginnings and the promise of life to come. The crops were planted, the lambs and calves gamboled beside their dams. Handfastings were celebrated, the first since the old year ended at Samhain. And they celebrated the joining of the Young Lord and the Maiden in that ritual as old as time that promised the continuence of existence for all here below. What new things will you bring to life this year? What gardens do you plant? Partake of the joy and power of the season to empower your own spiritual life with the ecstasy of the Gods.

I hear the Goddess

I hear The Goddess
when The Full Moon dances in my eyes.
Skyclad I am.
She is here,
whispering my name.

Cast the circle,
let the world stay out
my spirit is in ecstasy:
a world within, a world without.

Mother be thou adored.

I hear the Goddess,
drinking my sisters' wine.
Love permeates every pore
of my being, the power is here.
the power is mine.

Mother be thou adored.

I hear the Goddess,
Two perfect words I have:
Perfect Love and Perfect Trust.
I am at one with the divine.
I am stardust.

Mother be thou adored.

My Lady I am in your womb of flower,
connected to your mysteries and sacredness.
Draw a crescent Moon on my forehead again
for I shall eternally be your daughter.

Mother be thou adored.

Karla Bardanza

"When one defines oneself as Pagan, it means she or he follows an earth or nature religion,one that sees the divine manifest in all creation.The cycles of nature are our holy days, the earth is our temple,its plants and creatures our partners and teachers.We worship a deity that is both male and female, a mother Goddess and father God,who together created all that is, was, or will be.We respect life, cherish the free will of sentient beings, and accept the sacredness of all creation."
