Blessed Beltaine/May Day!

It's that time of year again!
(NSFW)

Have a blessed day everyone! May your hopes and dreams blossom into reality!

For a bit o' history, May 1st was the time of year that the seeds sown early in the year would start to blossom. To encourage a good harvest, people would celebrate this time of year with fertility "rituals".

It's also how weddings came to be most blessed and popular in June - it was right around that time that women would find out they were bearing the "fruit" from the May 1st rituals.

omg that video made me laugh hysterically.

Those World of Warcraft people have too much time on their hands, but I guess everyone knows that already.

I love the video.

I think I'll celebrate by whining in a corner.

If you celebrate Beltain properly, it will cure your ills

Actually if I celebrate *properly* I suspect I will be completely unable to move tomorrow.
