~ Last time at Meadow Sweet Grove ~ A Victoria Sandwich makes for a Merry May ... May was never supposed to be a month of isolation for those who celebrate May Day or Beltane... or just love the official beginning of summer. It's the Merry, Merry, Month of May! Accompanying that should be all kinds of outdoor May revels like a procession or parade, Morris dancing or weaving ribbons while dancing around the maypole and crowning a Queen of the May.

FOLKLORE & MAGIC
~ Hitting New Heights with Your Hippogriff ~
Hippogriff illustration by Gustave Doré
Are you looking to find your real self ... or return to it? You could try approaching a Hippogriff.
Harry Potter was able to do what Draco Malfoy could not. He showed the Hippogriff Buckbeak respect; and as a result was treated to a fantastic ride ... a literal expression of his rise to new spiritual heights. Harry was understandably shaken in approaching the Hippogriff because this creature has the potential to rip him apart with its talons if displeased. But, even if accepted, there still lies the greater fear of relinquishing that little bit of control over the course of your life; and potentially meeting your destiny. Harry trusted, and accepted that challenge.
I think we are all a little envious of Harry, but there is no need to be, because at some point we all reach that time where we want to meet our Hippogriff. My advice is to be respectful and thoughtful to your guide and and to trust him; because what you will find will be worth the temporary madness.
