Some Bealtaine customs trace to the 9th-century Irish record. Sanas Cormaic describes two fires and cattle driven toward them. Some came from English May Day traditions absorbed over centuries. The Green Man was coined as a term in 1939. Handfasting has Old Norse origins. Each custom is traced to its actual source using Sanas Cormaic, Kevin Danaher, and Ronald Hutton. #IrishFolklore #Bealtaine #Paganism #FolkHistory https://juniperdivination.com/history-of-modern-beltane-traditions
