religion

So, y'all probably don't know this about me because I don't identify very strongly and I don't talk about it a lot because it can be a bit controversial, but I semi-identify as a neopagan. If asked, I'll usually says I am an "agnostic neopagan" because I'm not 100% what it going on out in the great cosmic soup of the world, but I do believe in the divinity in nature and an amount of multiplicity in divinity as well. When I was 12, and periodically since then, I got really into Wicca, specifically. When I'm feeling spiritual, I tend to like to express it in sort of "witchy" ways.

ANYWAY, the point of all that is that today is Beltane! Or May Day. This is the one pagan holiday I celebrate almost every year, although usually just by wearing flowers in my hair and/or celebrating fertility in a non-babymaking way. I like to celebrate the solstices and equinoxes as well, but I don't always remember to celebrate those for some reason...but Beltane always sticks out to me. I think it's because it's when things start to get warm, and I want to commune with nature more. And I like that it's a sort of sexual holiday. >:)

Well, I'm off to look at flowers, maybe see if I can find a maypole to dance around. Anyone else celebrating Beltane today? What are all y'alls religious leanings anyway? I don't want to start any controversy, and I know religion can be a touchy subject, but I'm curious, if you want to share.

Have a nice, summer-y day. :)
