May Full Moon is Flower Moon, especially potent when it falls so close to Beltane and the Festival of Flora…. both festivals of fertility and renewal. It’s a month that demands attention. Even nondescript streets transform into urban paradises with blossom blowing everywhere and gardens bursting into new life. Notting Hill houses are suddenly covered in fragrant wisteria; intoxicating scents waft from the lilacs that overhang garden walls; in Holland Park a carnival of tulips fills the walled, Dutch Garden. Kew becomes a magical Eden full of remarkable beings. Blackbirds are singing, calling from the gateway between worlds. Pan is everywhere, dancing through bluebell filled wood and round lake shores.
The Flower Moon is a good time to tune in to renewal and to reawaken neglected passions. If you really want to write, the longer days make this the time to begin. Or if you want to dance, to dream, to walk barefoot on the grass… You can shed ‘musts’ and ‘shoulds’ like winter clothes and do what you desire with a spirit of joy and freedom. Invoke the Moon Goddess with candle, incense and flowers and she will help you journey deep into the underworld.
Merry Moon, Bright Moon, Flower Moon be
the fire that burns for Green Man and me
Flora, Venus, Sulis, Pan
Between earth and Sky
May Blessings flow
And all things grow.
