A Monument to Our Connection to our Universe! The Horn Needs Your Help!
One of the most powerful discoveries given to us by science has been learning the astounding and glorious history of how we got here. A key part of that discovery was the finding of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation (CMB, see picture above), literally the glow of the Big Bang or Great Radiance itself! The actual structure which gave us our earliest baby picture of ourselves is now under threat from developers, but you can help save this sacred site for both future generations and our own kids!

Happy Spring Equitherm (Beltane)!
Celebrations
Attraction! Our world reawakens, and we see beauty around us! In addition to each of us finding beauty in our world as part of our connection to our Universe, our wider body of humankind is also finding new beauty – such as this discovery of a new species of orchid, just in time for Beltane! Also, just after Beltane, many of us enjoy Star Wars Day, May 4th.
Some of the ways many of us are celebrating Beltane were published ~ a week ago, and now we also have many online & in person celebrations and rituals to attend, as we like (see list of links in that post published last week). Plus, hat tip to Mark Green for posting this useful article about ways to celebrate Beltane with kids, without the need to focus on human sexuality (not that there’s anything wrong with that, Jerry). Beltane also reminds us of the symmetry of life and death, – as Glenys does here. For some of us, the celebrations will be later this week – the actual midpoint between the Equinox and the Solstice is May 5th, and this year, with Beltane falling on a weekday, the coming weekend has plenty of events planned. And of course, for those of us in the Southern Hemisphere, Happy Samhain! However you are celebrating, may your be celebration be blessed.
This is an updated version of our annual Spring Equitherm post.
The May Cross-Quarter (Vernal Equitherm or Beltane) is less than two weeks away! + online celebrations
The Vernal Equitherm (Beltane) is coming! While Beltane sweeps over our whole Northern Hemisphere (with Samhain in the Southern Hemisphere), it’s especially obvious in California, where historic rainfall has given birth to a similarly historic superbloom! Check out the flowers celebrating Beltane throughout so much of that state!
