隔天就是5月,夏天來了,準備來狂歡吧!Jeff J Mitchell/Getty Images
gettyimages英國蘇格蘭的年度「朔日祭」(Beltane Fire festival)再度來臨,為了迎接5月夏天的到來,當地居民、遊客全湧到山丘上圍著焰火、隨著音樂手舞足蹈起來。
這項源自居爾特民族傳統的祭典,最早多半用來祈求六畜興旺,人們會把象徵火焰的5月花裝飾牛隻,再牽著牛群繞篝火幾圈,達到平安、繁衍興旺的願望。
來到現代,這項傳統祭典每年都吸引約上萬遊客圍觀,號召祭典的團體「朔日之火」(The Beltane Fire Society)是由一群自發性的音樂家和舞者組成,他們一方面維護傳統,也同時藉著活動來替音樂和藝術團體募款。
