This time around we'll expect the Summer Solstice on the 21st June, and for this there are many interesting times. It's believed this is when things are mystical, magical and enchanting. It's also when the veil is lowest and people see ghosts, strange creatures, fairies, goblins and many other spirits. In ancient times it was considered very dangerous for paranormal forces to try and harm by causing havoc. Our ancestors warded them off by making big bonfires, wearing talismans, herbs, carrying protective stones and metals, chanting and drums.
Its believed that ferns bloom with a special magic flower only on the eve of Midsummer. It's blue in colour and can be sown by gathering of fern seeds. If sown at midnight, the blue flowers will grow from them during Midsummer Eve and help with magic powers, including treasure seeking and invisibility. This is part of old English folklore.
Romantic spookiness? The solstice in Summer could help young women foresee their future husbands. This folklore involved many similar tales. Find some herbs including St John's Wort, roses and yarrow, make sure these are placed under the pillow. Get some good sleep and the dreams will be about their future husbands. Another one is to silently cook a meal, sat nothing at all, and put an empty plate and chair at the table. The astral form of the future husband should arrive!
