Preparing for Beltane

Beltane is a traditional Pagan sabbat celebrated by many people today.  It spans the night of April 31 (May Eve) and the day of May 1 (May Day).  Other names include Roodmas and Walpurgisnacht.  The many themes associated with Beltane can give you ideas for planning a ritual or gathering.  Good books include Beltane: Springtime Rituals, Lore and Celebration and Celebrating the Seasons of Life: Beltane to Mabon.  For seasonal music, consider Beltane: Songs for the Green Time or From Imbolc to Beltane.
