The mouth of fire. The threshold. The hearth relit.
Béal tine — the mouth of fire. This is Bealtaine: not the fire of destruction but the fire of revelation. The fire that shows you what was always there but could not yet be seen. And this particular lunar cycle carries an extraordinary gift — the full moon and Bealtaine fall on the same night. The mouth of fire and the fully lit moon, both fully open, together.
Every hearth in Ireland was extinguished at Bealtaine and relit from a single sacred flame on the Hill of Uisneach. What have you been running on — what fires were lit in a different time for a different reason — that you are now invited to let go? And what new flame, carried home from something shared, might you relight in its place?
The threshold is ahead. This guide walks with you across it.
