Beltane, celebrated on May 1st, is one of the ancient Gaelic festivals marking the changing of seasons. Alongside Samhain, Imbolc, and Lughnasadh, it forms a key part of the Celtic wheel of the year. Rooted in pre-Christian traditions, Beltane is associated with fertility, fire, and the return of life and abundance to the earth.

It started simply enough. In the summer of 1947, something crashed on a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. The nearby Roswell Army Air Field issued a press release stating that they had recovered a "flying disc" . Just hours later, the military did another press release saying it was merely a weather balloon. But by then, the seed of doubt had been planted. 

Long before mermaids enchanted Western sailors and storytellers, the waters of ancient China were said to be home to their own merfolk, the Jiaoren. These beings have swum through centuries of Chinese folklore, their shimmering legends a blend of beauty, mystery, and deep ecological symbolism.

Imagine walking in the forests in eastern Europe, it's a nice day. Then suddenly you lost track of where you are and where you came from. A mysterious wind blows up and distorts the surroundings. Then voices echoing throughout the woods, scaring you. You look around and what you see is a giant plant-like humanoid, walking towards you. Who is this giant being? And is it a friend or a foe? 

Time travel is the ability to travel through time, and it's an activity humans have been fascinated with sine we became aware of time. Some people say time travelling is a possibility others say nay,we are stuck in this time and can't move through it. Some try to build machines and others think you can only time travel through your mind or through some glitch in the matrix. So what is time travelling and is it a mere fantasy or a reality?

Spring Equinox, Ostara or the Resurretion of Jesus; this moment marks the first day of spring, with the light triumphing over the darkness. The earth begins waking up, plants start to sprout from the ground, and animals come out of hibernation. But what is it really about? 

You most likely already heard about the Bermuda Triangle and it's eerie way of making ships and aircrafts disappear into thin air, never to be heard from again. But what is a triangle, really? And did you know there are other “triangles” which have similar behaviour as the Bermuda Triangle? 

The cold breeze from the highlands ruffles your hair as you are standing by the brink of Loch Ness. Suddenly a flipper breaks the surface and something emerges. This something might be a piece of wood, and the "flipper" might be a branch of said piece of wood. It's really too far away to tell. It could also have something to do with the legend of a being dwelling in the deep waters of the Loch. 

Imbolc and Gŵyl Fair y Canhwyllau (pronounced roughly: Gweil Fair uh Kan-hoo-lai) are two different, but closely related, ancient festivals that mark the transition from winter to spring. With roots in both Celtic and Welsh-Christian traditions, these festivities remind us of the eternal cycles of nature and the hope of brighter days.

In a small town in Washington State, one early morning, in the summer of 1994, gelatinous blobs began raining down. However, the extraordinary phenomenon did not end there. Soon after the blob-rain, people started getting sick. This strange phenomenon became known as the Oakville Blobs.

Powerful, mysterious and fascinating – angels and archangels have long been a link between the divine and the earthly. But how did their story begin, and how have their roles changed over time?
