The celebration of May 1st, or Beltane as it is known in Wicca Circles, is one of the most important festivals of our religious year. I will attempt here to answer some of the most often asked questions about this holiday.hat does the word Beltane mean? Dr. Proinsias MacCana defines the word as follows: ... the Irish name for May Day is Beltane, of which the second element, 'tene', is the word for fire, and the first, 'bel', probably means 'shining or brilliant'. 1 The festival was known by other names in other Celtic countries.
Beltane is one of the eight annual festivals or âsabbatsâ on the pagan calendar. While the holiday, also known as May Day, is most closely associated with fertility, it is also a community festival that brings together friends and families in public celebrations that traditionally incorporate bonfires and maypoles.long with building bonfires, modern-day pagan observances of Beltane also include dancing around a maypole with ribbons tied to it. The ceremonial folk dance performed around a pole hung with ribbons is not exclusively associated with Beltane and is also a common folk practice across Europe on May 1.
