Episode 5 May - Oak Apples, Beltane and Changelings
In this episode I take a look at the festivals and customs of the month of May, both those that are still celebrated today and those that were celebrated by our ancestors but ave now faded away. I look at Beltane and May Day and how the Christian church pinched some of these ancient customs and festivals and adapted them into something different.I also take a look at how some of the plants and flowers blooming in this month had a significant part in the May celebrations and how they helped our ancestors connect to this special month. I take a little look at the fairy folk and some of the plants they are associated with.If you want a more detailed delve into each month, take a look at my monthly zine which takes a look at the seasonal folklore, nature lore along with a few seasonal projects and recipes to help you get the most out of each month and enjoy the seasons. https://www.hedgerowandmoor.co.uk/collections/almanac-subscription-pre-order-now-openAlso check out the blog for more seasonal tips and how to connect to nature. https://www.hedgerowandmoor.co.uk/blogs/news
