As a season is three months long, and in line with historical tradition, the British Summer begins on May Day, when we are surrounded by the beauty of flowers. May Day is also known as Beltaine -from bel/goodly, and aine from tinne/fire. This is a time when all hearths (the sacred centre of the home) were cleansed, and newly lit from beacon/ Temple fires. May is the time of fertility and rapid growth. As the flowers fall, the fruits swell, watered by the torrential rains of June, and ripen in the heat and electric storms of July.
