falls between Ostara & Midsummer
A Sabbat that celebrates fertility & fire. A bonfire is traditionally lit at sundown or moonrise with potent, aromatic herbs tossed into the flames. A candle can be used symbolically if a bonfire isn't possible, but it is good luck to light a flame of some sort.
This is a celebration of the sacred, sexual union of the god & goddess. A good time for blessings and any fertility rituals.
generally a day of carefree celebration with dancing, games & feasting.
