Hey Linda! Great post. I remember that May Pole dance and it was a lot of fun. It has become an important part of Beltane now too. I think back to those early days at Beltane often- the people that came in those early years all seem to have progressed a lot and now we are the old school. I remember when we were all young enough to be new school. LOL.
ReplyDeleteyes, its a bit of a fright when someone indignantly accuses you of being the "old guard", as if there is a use by date on ideas! However somewhere back in the days of the dinosaurs I can vaguely remember a young and indignant witch getting a bit hasty with her "old guard" for their obviously antiquated ideas. Hmmm. Just as well this is a living tradition, not a fossilised heirachy, despite the accusations of certain folks!
