A poem for you on Beltane, the traditional May 1st, Gaelic Fire Festival:


May you remember the sun that lives within you--
steady, radiant, quietly powerful.
 
As we honor Beltane,
the turning toward light, warmth, and becoming,
may your own inner fire rise to meet the season.
 
May it illuminate the places within you
that are ready to bloom.
May it soften what has been held in shadow,
not by force, but by gentle presence.
 
May you feel the warmth of your own essence--
not something you must earn or create,
but something that has always lived within you,
waiting to be trusted.
 
May your path be guided by this inner sun,
your choices warmed by it,
your offerings to the world infused with its light.
 
And as the earth opens into fullness,
may you too open--
in your own timing,
in your own sacred way.
