Beltaine is a Polish folk band. The group name is derived from a Celtic holiday celebrated on the night of April 30 and May 1. Beltaine Celtic name corresponds to the month of May. The Celts divided the year into a bright and a dark part, or a warm and a cold part, and May 1 was the start of the bright and warm part of the year. Beginning of light and warm semester for them was cause for celebration; it meant abundance and fertility. To celebrate this day on the night of April 30 to May 1 the Celts first put out the fire, and then rekindled it from scratch, which would mean the defeat of darkness and all evil forces. Those fires that they were singing by and dancing had Holy character for Celts and were kindled from nine species of wood, which must include the oak, which for the Celts was a sacred wood. The fire from the sacred fires were transferred on May 1 to homes, which was to assure a success in the new year. More information...
