Ignore the negative comments, they're really not worth worrying about, your video content is natural and honest so keep it up, contact the pagan federation if things are really bad as they can offer a lot of support. Have a great Beltane
How would one contact the pagan federation? Fb? You tube? Thanks in advance.
Here in Germany it is tradition (at least where I am from - close to cologne) to cut down a young birchtree and decorate it with colorful ribbons. Usually young guys in love cut them down and put them in front of the house or under the window of the beloved in question. It is called a May - tree....you do not have to be in a relationship to receive a tree...you can also get wood shavings which mean the opposite...someone really does not like you, if you are receiving those. The tree gets placed during the night whilst there are a lot of parties around. In the more rural areas will be bonfires. There can be tree theft and other mischievous acts. Greetings from Germany ;)
In germany we also celebrate Walpurgisnacht on the 30th April, the witches night for dancing :D I have a local moot that I'm going to tonight, not sure what is planned but it will be Beltane themed for sure :)
That’s interesting! Isn’t that how the leprechaun in that one story tricked the man into not finding any gold? By tying red ribbons on every tree in the forest?
Super interesting, thank you for sharing! 💚
Lovely video Luna
Thanks so much…
I connect with nature during every season but here in Shropshire everything is bursting into life so it’s magical as you say to see the sun dragging the plants out of the earth!
Happy May Day for tomorrow and PLEASE continue to bless us with your interesting content
I really enjoy it and have done since last year Samhain when I found you ❤ xxx
I’m glad that I’m not alone in the sentiment of tearing up when bees are enjoying my garden. 🥲🪴🐝 much love from America, happy Beltane! 🔥🐮💐
The BBC ought to snap you up for a fab series. I love how authentic your videos feel next to many others, and appreciate how much it must take you to put all this knowledge together. Thank you. ✨️
Thank you :) 💚
The Fire is life, and life is a goddess. Touch something green and alive every day, but especially at Beltane.
What if I live in Arizona and nothing is green? 😂
im celebrating beltane with my bf! he's starting to get into witch craft and we're so excited to celebrate together!!
Yay more witches!
Love your videos don't stop ,there are many viewers who are looking forward to your videos!
1st timer here! Kept seeing this video pop on my suggested feed and very happy i watched.
Im in USA and overall our culture has "forgotten" so much of where tradition began. I have been on my witch self learning journey for 1 year so far and its truly beautiful to step into this part of me that i have always felt was there. I never had a elder family member teach or even speak of practices but I have a very strong feeling my full German Grandmother did in secret.
Thank you for your work and I hope you keep sharing your knowledge for us baby witches.
Today to celebrate May Day i wore a shirt thats yellow with flowers, pink stone on me, I wiped this mornings dew on my face for eternal youth, and picked some spring flowers to leave at my doorstep with a slice of bread as a gift to keep the faeries happy.
Happy Beltane everyone!

The Trolls are brutal and ever present, cowards all of them. Your videos and presentation are quite lovely! 🙏
You made me think that some of the chores I have to do this time of year can be a way to connect with nature and welcome summer. I always have dead leaves on my lawn from last Fall that I didn't have time to rake. Instead of seeing it as an annoyance, I realize it's a great opportunity to get some exercise and get some sun light.
That is a lovely way to think of it and helps bring a bit of magic into everyday life 💚
Omg, I can't believe people are leaving mean and scary comments. I'm so sorry to hear that. I absolutely adore your history and folklore videos (and all of your videos haha)! I'm so sorry people suck. : (
Please don't let those morons bring you down. You, "The Green Witch" and "Hearth Witch" are my favourites!
Agreed. That’s what morons do. It means nothing.
Thank you, I love those creators too 💚
Air my breath, fire my spirit, earth my body and water my blood what a profound awakening to our connection with all in nature. Leave the mobile at home when heading out for a walk ❤
you seem like such a lovely person, i’m sorry people are cruel :( i really enjoyed this video!
This was a very fun, relaxing video about this great time of year. All my flowers are coming out too, like dandelions, lilacs and tiny lilac-colored flowers. I love how you touched on just about everything regarding Beltane, Mayday, Walpurgisnacht- the many names!
I’m glad you mentioned the people being mean-spirited as well - and it sounds like they committed UA-cam Community Guidelines violations - and I’m glad you’re continuing to make this kind of historical and folklore-filled content AnyWay. It is them who should not be posting things. I’m grateful to be viewing positive healthy wholesome content like yours.
💚 Omg seeing this thumbnail absolutely made my day!!!!!! 💚
Currently in the southern hemisphere where the leaves are twirling through the air in all different colors. While I'm happy to be snug by the fireplace and enjoying a hearty meal it almost feels nostalgic to see the pretty spring imagery and remember about flowers and butterflies!
Looking forward to seeing footage from your Beltane gathering too. I don't currently know of a similar celebration in this country but now I'm looking at the indigenous calendar to see if they have similar fertility celebrations between spring and summer 🧚✨
Never thought I would see the day when I'm actually asking google which time period cattle were introduced lol!!! 🐄🔥
That sounds so lovely! I hope you have a great season 💚
Thank you Luna for this big worldly community that respects other people and their beliefs. Your content is true and comes from spirit that is why bad people respond in fear. Keep going and we the believers will always stand behind you! Beltane Blessings!💐
Here in Dorset, we’re having a Beltane festival in Cerne Abbas, on the Cerne Giant, beginning at 5AM. Later we’re moving into the village.
🔥🌸🌼
Great talk about Beltane, I appreciate all the research you put into your videos.
Liked your 😂slaughter of Irish celtic 😂 on Beltaine. Looking forward to the rest. The bone fires (from which we get bonfires) were to drive the mist (which was the source of diseases in olden times) before they went to the high fields to fatten and nurse with the young. It was a celebration to free themselves into the growing year after winter. And get ready to send the crops after sowing. I'd like to introduce you to the works of my teacher Elen Sentier. If you wish, I can relate to you how I found many traditions.
Wonderful summer vibes. I just realized its Beltane day tomorrow on 1 May. The sun is out today here in Hertfordshire. For your region to be sunny is a definite sign of summer approaching. The vibe reminds me of paintings of humans and animals sitting together to picnic in harmony in green pastures. Regarding intimacy during this time of the year i particularly find the effects of hormones such as oxytocin, progesterone, and prostaglandin on dairy farmed animals such as cattle, sheep and goats which are used for milking . I have always loved sheep and I am sure that's why horses are attracted to me. Regarding your community post. You're welcome. I hope you had a chance to read my advice too. Again I suggest having somebody else to monitor and delete negative comments so you don't have to see them or be effected by them.
Don't stop making content, love your videos.😉
Ohhhh I love your videos! Very educational and inspiring. Please don’t stop because of some hating people. You definitely can’t please everyone but those that look forward to your videos, LOVE THEM!!! Thank you for taking time to make them for us!
Thank you for the kind words 💚
Thank you for this! I enjoy your videos and learning more about paganism and related topics. Your content seems cozy, wholesome, and I cannot imagine why anyone would leave horrible messages! Take care and guard yourself - the internet can be a bonkers place! ✌
Thank you!
I'm so happy you decided to continue with the youtube videos, i love how informative you are because of all the research you do, sending hugs
Merry Beltane.
Love your videos. They are so genuine and interesting. Never stop being exactly who you are. Don’t allow negativity to affect your soul journey. 🦋🌞❤️
Thank you! 💚
Love your videos. Here in the Welsh Marches Birch is super important to this festival. People would fix a Birch sapling to their door post for protection. This was referred to as a Maypole. Also Birch is very important to Frigg /Freya/Brigid/Ffraed. You might find the book The Folklore of Herefordshite by Mary EllaLeather interesting.
Keep inspiring us with your great content❤
Super interesting! 💚
So glad you’re still continuing to make these videos! 😊 xx
Thanks for the post Luna 🙂🙂
I appreciate how thorough this video is, thank you :) Blessed Beltane to you 🌸🩷🦋
You have a lovely peaceful speaking voice (and that means THE WORLD TO ME thank you. It’s very hard for me to focus otherwise). This video is so informative and also soothing (not distracting background music.. I just) I thank you so so very much!!! You have a beautiful soul and are awesome!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for the kind words! 🥰
Thank you for a genuine, charming and Informing video.I felt like your comments resonate with me this Beltane.Keep posting you're clearly a caring lovely person who is connected with nature and folklore.Bright blessings this Beltane😊
Thank you for all the work you put into your videos. I really appreciate all the knowledge❤
Your videos are amazing!! So much wisdom and knowledge, thank you so much for sharing ❤️ Also don't worry about what others say or write the haters and pervs, you have powerful spirits watching and protecting you. Happy Beltane 😊
Thank you! 💚
🎩😺Hi, I vaguely remember having to do maypole dancing at junior school 50 years ago. Don’t forget young hawthorn leaves. They go well in a salad and great for a snack if out walking.
I love that you make it so easy and accessible to be part of the rituals etc. very inspiring, thank you. 🌻
Hi another great video with lots of fantastic ideas for Beltane..I cannot believe its here already. Ive planted some Sunflower seeds they always make me smile.Have a wonderful Beltane.
Thank you! Sunflowers are lovely 💚
Happy Beltane, thank you for the video and the inspiration.
In Sweden every village lights big bonfires. Valborgs evening we call it, i guess its kinda of the same as Walpurgisnacht. Then some also celebrate "Blot" based on the viking culture. Interesting with all cultures and history.
Very interesting :) 💚
You did a great research for this video. Thanks for sharing. 🖤🍀 I’m already doing most of the things you suggested. Here in Germany we have maypoles that differ from region to region. I just made my own little maypole. I don’t have people to celebrate with, but I celebrate with my sister and my niece. 🖤 Best wishes ! 🤗
Thank you for watching! That sounds lovely, I hope you have a good Beltane 💚
My first Luna video-I’m so glad I watched, I’m looking forward to more videos!😃
Blessed Beltane Luna! ❤❤❤ I love your content, it's such a breath of fresh air and brings me so much peace 😊
sorry to hear of the negativity you've had! I thoroughly enjoy your videos, love your accent (I'm a midlands Brit) and feel I've learned alot about my lands history from you so thank you! Hope you enjoyed your Beltane gathering as I'm watching on the 3rd
Thanks for the lovely video. Happy Beltane 🙂
Amazing stuff I'm Scottish but I have 29% Ulster in me which is class when I found out as I love CúChulainn so it's cool I have blood from where was raised he's my idol.

Lovely!
Yay just what I need ❤
I just love your videos ❤
Very informative and a pleasure to watch
Thank you for sharing x x
I appreciate your video. It helped me celebrate.
We got monsoon eminent end of June...time to plant some trees!!
The cows were driven between 2 fires in a ritual of purification before they were driven up into the hills to their summer pastures.
As the seasonal round mirrors the progression of human life, Bealtaine commemorates both the arrival of summer and the reckless exuberance of youth.
Love the video! Thanks so much for making it, i learnt a lot. Will be my first time celebrating this year so i will definitely include some of your ideas in the day! 💚
This is a lovely video. I listened to it while winding yarn by hand. ❤ New subscriber here. I can't imagine why anyone would send awful comments, it makes me sad.
You're such a beautiful soul, I love your energy It's so comforting. Thank you 🌺
I love your content I’m a new Wiccan so I am learning from you thank you ❤

Take a look into Welsh Fairy Folk Lore. So sorry people make nasty comments. I really love your content :)
Your videos help us learn about our family's heritage. There is a lot of Irish and Scottish influence in Canada.🇨🇦 My family included. Thank you for that.✌🙃 happy spring!!.
My ritual is unpacking the bike and shorts from winter storage then take a decent ride.⚘🍃🌷
Sounds great, enjoy!
Beautiful video my lovely! Please keep doing what you are doing, you present things in such a sweet, honest and informative way and I don't know how anyone could possibly find anything negative to say about your channel. Beautiful top Luna at the beginning and the tapestry on the wall behind you. I am sure you must have been asked before but I've missed the answer, where did you get the tapestry and the lovely top for that matter if you don't mind sharing please? x
I’m a new subscriber! I’ve celebrated Beltane today. I’ve really enjoyed your video and I’m so interested to watch about fairies 🧚♀️
Welcome! 🧚♀️
🔥 video
Hello from Sweden. Nice one and interesting here it is called Valborg i gues after that Germanic Saint. We light huge public bonfires and it is a big thing in university city's/towns for the students to party.
But you put up your May pole at midsummer. I always wondered about this. Perhaps because summer comes later in Scaninavia, the northern parts anyway. I'm from Norway.
@@kirstimeretearnesen1202 Yes whe celebrate Valborg at 30 april and light bonfires. Midsummer whe celebrate at the end of June and dance round "maypoles" whe cal them midsommarstång wich translates to midsummer pole. Midsummer has to do with the summer solstice to do or the tradition I think.
Sending love ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the information
Plz do more videos screw the negative ones
Nice video. We do also Beltain in Czech, all variations, ritual fire, burning witchies, kissing under bloomy cherry. 👍
Love that!
sticks and stones, i know its easy to say and its hard to ignore negative comments from negative people. i used to get upset at what someone i didnt even know would comment on some social media site but thats all they are is negative and misery loves company. if their comments are negative and threatening on a video you made, theres something wrong with them...keep up your work. you have people in your corner that appreciate the work you put in.
Please Please ignore the negativity!! I can see and feel you're speaking from your heart whenever you talk about this subject and that's all that should count. Your heart is your queen. Protect her with bravery and pride of who she is!❤
Thank you so much 💚
Think I saw you at a gig a couple weeks ago (Midnight/Cyclone/High Command) in Newcastle
Yes I was there, great gig :)
@@Lunaleodrune Cool! I didn’t say hi incase it wasn’t you haha
Oh my gosh, I wanted to send you a nice comment too...! Wonderful video. Beautifully told, the only thing I would add are crystals. What kind are we putting on our alters...? I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess lots of Citrine to represent the sun. Maybe if you're feeling generous, some recipes or traditional dishes I can look up... 😉 lol. I am very thankful for your videos and others like it. I always practiced alone, but now I finally have an alter (a big one..) I sometimes get a little lost on how to decorate. I find that when all else fails, my intuition kicks in, and I just take a look around me. If you follow the seasons, there's really no "wrong way." I serve a goddess too, so I have fun incorporating things, smells, objects, beverages, food, etc.. I try to include her in the celebration by adding some of her favorite things to the alter, along with as many really traditional decorations, so for me, more candles than normal, and lots of flowers. I think I might even make a flower crown, too. Screw the haters, you keep doing what you do. I enjoyed the video. I thought it was very informative. I'm excited to see how you and your friends celebrate Bealtaine. Have fun...! Bless ✨️
Totally agree that intuition is the best way to go. That sounds lovely, enjoy! 💚
I've been loving your videos, I hope you don't get put off by nasty people
❤❤❤
So sorry you have to sift through such hate. Keep doing the great work you're doing!
Not very familiar with this but thanks for sharing

Happy tears are usually about release of endocannabinoids
