I thought Beltane was May Eve. Is this just because I have no idea what I'm talking about? :-)
Could someone more knowledgable than I parse out an historically accurate background for Beltane (and thus for
May Day) that is distinct from the modern revival?
-- I will do a Samhain on it (tomorrow, I'm off out for dinner with my wife) and root out this undue emphasis on Neopaganism. It is an old Celtic festival and deserves better treatment than this. sjc
