Spring summer, where the energy of Spring invites the abundance of Summer. It's nature's wisdom and a feast offered to us of Dandelions. In this podcast episode I talk a lot about the health benefits of the humble yellow dandelion. What to eat the dandelion with and I include a recipe for making Dandelion Beer.

I muse about the Celtic fire festival that happens in May. In the Celtic tradition the season where we transition from Spring into Summer is called Beltane. The energy now is expansion and the natural environment is bursting with anticipation everywhere.

"We too can begin a new life, one that brings satisfaction and enrichment, whether this is by singing, dancing, running through the waves, walking barefoot on the grass or making love under the stars. Beltane is a wonderful time for expressing who you truly are.”

This quote is from 'Mrs Darley's Pagan Whispers: A Celebration of Pagan Festivals, Sacred Days, Spirituality and Traditions of the Year' by Carole Carlton.

Spring summer nature's wisdom

As you start to connect more with nature's wisdom you'll find yourself become more aware of the changes of season. Spring time feels springy and early Summer continues that essence of bursting up and out. I love the inspiration I gain from Morning Altars written by Day Schildkret . I describe what it's like to go out on location seeking nature's wisdom. This is where I mooch and forage for items from nature's wisdom to create a mandala. The sunshine is a feature of both Spring Summer. I explain how to enjoy a bit of sun hugging!

I've had a few of these over the years. This is a popular book that delves into nature's wisdom the 'Country Wisdom & Folklore Diary'. This is available from www.talkingtreesbooks.co.uk

The book 'Sacred and herbal healing beers, the secrets of ancient fermentation' is full of amazing historic information on the subject and nature's wisdom. Written by Master Herbalist Stephen Harrod Buhner his website lists all his books.
