Sending Beltane blessings of joy and light to you! 😘
Beltane or Bealtaine - named after the Celtic God, Bel meaning ‘Bright One’ and paired with the Gaelic word for ‘Teine’ meaning ‘Fire’ = “Bright Fire ” 🔥.
The Celtic fire festival celebrates love, fertility, friendship, union, new life and 🌞 !
This turning of the year, will leave behind the winter and transition from spring heading into summer 🌞.
The veil is thin between the two worlds, an opportunity to make our offerings of sweet milk, food and flowers to the mischievous fae folk 🧚♀️.
Also today expect great magickal presence as the Full Flower Moon or Blossom Moon 🌸🌝 falls on this blessed Beltane day. This Flower/Blossom Moon brings with her an abundance of growth, life and vitality in full bloom. 🌻🌼🌷🌺🌸🪻🌹.
Between now and the summer solstice there will be big manifestation energy bringing with it much freedom, creativity and transformation.
Much gratitude and blessings to you on this ‘Day of Fire’ symbolising purity and protection. 😘🌞🌸🙏🔥🕯️🪻🌺🌼🌷🧚♀️🌝

‘Dancing under wide open skies brings us to full presence - to feeling that we are part of this precious planet; we get to shed the sense that we have to do it alone. We don’t just dance on earth, but with earth, as earth.’

Happy Spring Equinox blessings to you! 🌞🌕🍃🐰
Where light and dark meet as equals before we move into the light here in the Northern Hemisphere. And Happy Autumn Equinox to those of you in the Southern Hemisphere! 🍁🍂
Ostara marks the Spring or Vernal Equinox, I like to celebrate this day as the New Year, a time of creation and rebirth. Nothing but sunshine 🌞 here in the UK, bringing much warmth and light into our souls 💛. Looking forward to the longer lighter brighter days and more time outside. Perfect kite flying weather too 🪁💨! 😘🌞🌕💛

Sending you many blessings as we celebrate the Lunar New Year today, beginning on the 17th February 2026.🧧🥳✨
Today is such a magical special day as the Chinese New Year coincides with the New Moon (in Aquarius ♒️ ) Solar Eclipse. ✨
This Lunar New Year, we welcome the Year of the Fire Horse 🔥🐴. This will bring bold, courageous energy. Expect reinvention, decisive forward movement and being fearless whilst holding this dynamic energy.
The Fire Horse is all about empowering us to take courage, and to go for our dreams and passions. Our desire is awakened as we shift from the slow 🐍 energy to a bolder and faster pace of the Fire Horse. 🔥
As well as the Lunar New Year, today the 🌞 and 🌑 will align in a rare celestial moment as the Moon passes in front of the Sun. The Moon won’t fully cover the Sun hence the annucular solar eclipse known as the Ring of Fire - creating a truly stunning halo in the sky.
This pairing of the Fire Horse and the Solar Eclipse will create sudden shifts and accelerated change. Solar eclipses act like a cosmic resets ✨. What is meant to move forward will thus move very quickly. It’s time to see things as they truly are. Giddy up folks and hold onto your reigns!
Have a wonderful magical day, lovely you! 🏇🌑🌚🌞♒️🐴🧧⭐️🥳😘

Imbolc blessings to you dear lovely folk. ✨
Today we celebrate the cross-quarter festival, Imbolc - also known as Imbolg or
St. Brigid’s Day (fertility goddess).
This festival marks the half-way point between winter solstice and spring equinox.
Imbolc is an ancient Gaelic festival of fire begins at sunrise on the 1st February and ends at sunset on 2nd.
Imbolc means ‘in the belly, referring to the pregnancy of ewes at this time and the stirrings of new life. 🐑
There is a call for coming out of hibernation with signs of spring bulls beginning to grow, shoots stretching and pushing out of the soil, the earth warmed by the increasing strength of the sun. 🌿
On this day, it is common to light a candle or fire to embrace the seasonal shift of increased light and warmth. 🕯️
This is the time to celebrate the return of life to the land and to the spirit. A time of hope, rebirth, resurgence, renewal and awakening. 🌿✨
Will you be celebrating this special day?

Happy super moon blessings to you! 🌝
Wolf Super Moon in Cancer.
With the clear skies the past few nights, the moon has been so stunning 🌕. It will be at its brightest today, the 3rd of January 2026 at 10.03hrs GMT.
January’s full moon is named after the howling of hungry wolves but it’s also often called the Moon After Yule, Old Moon and Ice Moon.
It is the fourth consecutive Super Moon in a row and the last one until November 2026. According to the Farmer’s Almanac, the Super Moon will look roughly 30% brighter and up to 14% larger.
The Wolf Moon is a symbol of new beginnings of rest and reflection before we begin again. Ask yourself, what would you like to bring from the darkness into the light?
Our spiritual healing, deep emotions and intuition are super heightened and intense with the Super Moon. Feel the call to come back home to your authentic Self.
My ‘Wolf Moon’ greeting card can be purchased from my Etsy shop, /shop/MettaandMagic

Winter Solstice, 21st December at 15:03hrs GMT.
My loves, we are welcoming the winter magic feeling the joy and hope of the returning warmth and light as we celebrate the shortest day and longest night here in the Northern Hemisphere.
From now on bit by bit the days will lengthen and we shall look forward to the warmth again.
Winter Solstice is also known as
Hibernal Solstice. What a wonderful reminder to cosy up, pull into our inner stillness and darkness, a time to reflect and explore our inner quietude and sacred dreaming.
Traditions on this day include decorating the home with evergreens, lighting candles, burning a Yule log, feasting and gathering together with loved ones. How will you be celebrating the Winter Solstice?
Sending bright and beautiful
Winter Solstice blessings to you on this quietest point of the year.
