One section was appealing. I belong to a pyrotechnic organization and they use the “Green Man” as a symbol of passing the torch. A real torch is involved with a man dressed in foliage and sometimes a woman and child as the carrier(s) to signify moving from one event location to the next. Fertility is not involved but there are lots of explosions. :rofl: The image below is one of the symbols of the organization (PGI)

They’ve got some great ideas there! I particularly like this one they listed:

If you go out at sunrise on Beltane, take a bowl or jar to gather morning dew. Use the dew to wash your face, and you’re guaranteed a perfect complexion. You can also use the dew in ritual as consecrated water, particularly in rituals related to the moon or the goddess Diana or her counterpart, Artemis.

I’m up at sunrise almost every day - I’d just have to remember to run outside and collect some dew! Seems like a great ingredient to bottle up and have on the shelf for spellwork :purple_potion: :sparkles:

Thanks for sharing, @amanda6 - happy early Beltane!
