In ancient China, the desire for a son gave rise to rituals both intimate and uncanny.
One custom called for a woman, less than three months pregnant, to dress in her husband’s clothes and hat before dawn. She would circle a well three times counterclockwise, 1/2

The birds were singing extra loud this morning. I made my Brigid’s cross. Also made soda bread and some honey cinnamon farmers cheese for a gathering later. Happy Imbolc!

What a great project to preserve Ukraine's folk traditions: neweasterneurope.eu/2025/05/21/i... #ukraine #folklore #folktraditions #folkloring #preservingheritage #folksongs #folksinging #folklorethursday #preservingtraditions
I grew up hearing Ukraine’s village songs. Now we are helping young people bring them back. - New Eastern Europe
Some of Ukraine’s most endangered dialects and singing traditions lie in areas now devastated or depopulated by Russia’s invasion.

Followed Bristol’s magical Jack in the Green yesterday; a lush May Day tradition dating to the 1700s. A leafy, flowered Jack is paraded with music, dance, & joy to welcome summer. Bristol keeps tradition alive! Blog soon.

Seen Jack in the Green?

1/2 Don’t miss Bristol’s Jack in the Green tomorrow (Sat 2 May)
He appears just once a year, welcoming summer with a wild, music-filled procession from the Harbourside to Horfield. A Bristol tradition well worth seeing in person.
Go and find him
