Earth Traditions presents: Lifting the Gossamer Veil - For Those Who Come Behind Us...

At Samhain, the place on the Wheel directly juxtaposed to Beltane, we often refer to the 'veil.' "The veil is thin - the ancestors beckon...

At Beltane the veil is also very thin. Fae and other spirits are very much in evidence but the energy is lighter, sweeter and different. Perhaps a peek behind the gossamer veil will show us what's to come, the seeds that will grow into the legacy, the footprints we leave for our descendants.

Beltane is about how we birth and nurture the future.
