Beltane or May Day is a Pagan holiday that means the cold days of winter are over. As the days get longer and warmer, we see the rebirth of the earth itself: bulbs come up and bloom, birds sing as they return from their migrations to build nests. All around us are symbols of fertility, growth, warmth and light. It is the time to have a Beltane Ritual, May Day party or Beltane Festival, to celebrate the end of winter.
