May Day
May Day is still celebrated in many parts of the world. The Irish especially love this folk festival. They decorate trees and bushes and hold dances out doors to welcome the beginning of the summer. On relics in Assyria, we see ribbons fastened to the Tree of Life.
Here is a fun site that explains all about this festival and the traditions.
Be Inspired,
