Today is a big holiday in the natural cycle of the year. It's Beltane, also called May Eve or Walpurgis. When I saw it on my calendar a few days ago, I was confused for a moment. What's this holiday about? OK, it's half way between the spring equinox and the summer solstice - what, already? Then I remembered. Fertility!

Retailers are fond of saying "Location, location, location." It's the key to retail success - at least, prior to the internet. Location is all.

Artists need a fertile imagination. For us, fertility is all. "Fertility, fertility, fertility!"

Today is the day to celebrate the gift of imagination. To see relationships, to spark ideas, to open to gifts that float into the mind - this is the gift of gifts. Without this gift, art couldn't exist. Without this gift, we wouldn't be human.
