I was blessed to visit your beautiful country when I was a child in 1968. When I had to go home after only 3 months, I declared just before boarding the plane at the top of the stairs, “I’ll be back England!" And so began my love affair with England! I have yet to keep my promise to myself but I know I will do so. Oh, to be at Glastonbury at Beltane! Blessed be 🎉🥳🦋

Why would the 'Celtic' fire festival of Beltane - and its association with the movement of livestock to the high summer pastures - be celebrated in leafy English Glastonbury?

[@darceyhurworth4324]

because beltane can be celebrated anywhere in the world by whoever chooses to, its associations run much deeper than the moving of livestock to higher pastures, it is a celebration of summer and fertility for the year to come, and with glastonbury being such a beautiful part of the country with such a high number of pagan and spiritual people there its no surprise that their celebrations for the festival are so extravagant 😊

​​@@darceyhurworth4324 Looks like a mashup of every pagan and cod pagan trope imaginable to me. And I suppose 'Beltane / Bealtaine' has more of a neo-pagan ring to it than May Day - no matter how historically inappropriate. Still, everyone is having a nice time and that's the main thing.

Hilarious that pagans fill in censor forms
