May 1, 2023 – May Day.
Mary’s Day – Queen of the Angels.
Mary of the Flowers. Mary Crowned with Flowers.
Bring Flowers of the fairest, flowers of the rarest.
Beltane, a fire festival – cross quarter day between spring equinox & summer solstice.

Pluto stations retrograde today – 0.22 degrees Aquarius.
Re-enters Capricorn May 12th.
Continues its retrograde ’til Oct. 10th back to 28 Capricorn.
Then moves slowly forward.
This is our week of pilgrimage in dreamtime, walking together to the Wesak Festival – the Buddha Full moon on

Friday – the lunar eclipse, Cinco de Mayo – the festival wherein the Lord of the World blesses the world via the Buddha & the Christ. We are all called to this festival.

We prepare this week.
I wrote about Pluto retrograde on Night Light News.

Everyone turns inward. We all become Persephone.
We eat pomegranates to keep ourselves awake in the underworld.
We begin to understand the potency of Pluto – Lord of the world that is hidden, a Scorpio world. In the underworld of ourselves we prepare to become Disciples, Initiates & Adepts.

We have no protection. We drown to our old life. As the new life appears. We shed our skin. We are blinded. We are in the fires of purification. We arise, a phoenix, then an eagle.

No one is immune to this purificatory process.
Every person, nation, kingdom. It is a step in our evolutionary progress. Part of the Path.

Music – song we sang as children in Catholic school.
My mother was May Queen. I too was May Queen.
Dedication to Mary, Queen of the May.
