13:00 - 16:00 3rd May 2025
More InformationBeltane Women’s Circle & Flower Crown Celebration
Come celebrate the magic of Beltane with an afternoon of creativity, connection, feasting and full-on blooming energy.
Set in a beautiful bell tent in the countryside, with a roaring fire outside for us to gather around whilst feasting on afternoon tea!
Beltane is an ancient festival celebrating fertility, fire, and the full bloom of spring.
It is a beautiful time to honor life’s abundance, set intentions, and celebrate the blooming energy of the season.
It sits right between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice—the moment when the earth is bursting with life. Traditionally, people would light two great fires and pass their cattle between them, believing the flames carried the sun’s energy and would bring protection and abundance for the year ahead.
We will be incorporating a beautiful fire ritual into our afternoon, with a bonfire (weather permitted.) or a flame at the center of our circle.
We’ll be crafting flower crowns, sharing stories, eating lots of lovely treats and connecting in sisterhood — all while embracing the wild, joyful spirit of this ancient festival with a fire burning next to us!
Flower Crown Workshop: Creating flower crowns is a powerful way to honor Beltane’s connection to nature and fertility. Flowers have long been symbols of growth, beauty, and the cycles of life. As you weave your crown, you’ll have a chance to reflect on your intentions and infuse your creation with your hopes and desires for the season ahead. Wearing a flower crown during the circle is a reminder of your connection to the earth and your own inner blossoming.
All equipment will be provided and you will go home with a beautiful crown.
What to Bring:
A journal and pen for intention-setting
A shawl or blanket incase it gets a bit breezy!
What to Expect:Flower Crown Workshop: We’ll have a spread of fresh, seasonal flowers (each with its own meaning), and you’ll get to weave your own crown as a symbol of your personal intentions.
Meditation: A guided meditation focusing on awakening, blooming, and connecting to the earth’s energy.
Delicious afternoon tea: Sandwiches, scones, cake and a whole lotta tea!
Intention-Setting Ritual: Take a moment to reflect on what you’re calling into your life and infuse your crown with that energy.
Storytelling & Connection: Once we’re crowned, we’ll sit in circle to share stories, laughter, and anything that’s stirring in our hearts.
Sacred Circle & Closing Blessing: We’ll close with a gentle blessing, sending everyone home feeling grounded, radiant, and deeply connected.
Come as you are — leave crowned, glowing, and ready to blossom. - 44th May 2025
