    Is anybody else doing anything worthwhile tonight?

    I know next to my birthday and All Hallows' Eve, this is one of the nights I look forward too the most every year -

    Just wondering if I’m alone in my love of this day…


    I learned that every man needs a woman,
    who understands without question,
    when he wakes up in the night...

    Beltane Eve......Kinda like Halloween/Samhain where the veil between the the two worlds are thinest!

    You're not alone! I hadn't heard of it either, but I blame my country for that
    I looked it up on WikiPedia.........(Nerd!)

    This thread hasn't been very popular, so I'm guessing there's a lot of folk who haven't heard of it/don't o anything for it.

    I did the Wikipedia thing too, freudstein- I have never heard of it before, but I'm all for new traditions (or really old ones!). How amazing would it be to see one of those huge festivals in person?
