What you need to know about the
Celebration of Love 2024
This year, the Celebration of Love will be on 20th April 2024!
The Celebration of Love is always booked on a “rising” Moon – that is between New and Full Moon. People celebrating this day are based all over the world, and we say to all of them: “The Celebration begins in the morning when you get up, and lasts right the way through till the end of the night.” This helps to avoid complications caused by time zone differences, and gives us all several hours to plan our days. Remember, the important thing here is that you celebrate with all your heart. It does not matter whether you choose to work a “formal” ritual, or whether you want to celebrate by enjoying the glory of Nature, or the blessings of close family, or by pampering yourself all day. It is the fact that you do anything you do in the name of Love that will add your energies and good wishes to those of every other participant.
Previous Celebrations have been enjoyed by several formal groups of people, many family units, couples, friends and individuals who all placed love at the heart of their day.
When it comes to preparing decorations for your house, getting candles ready to burn on the day, preparing your own loose incense and so on, these activities will generally carry greater weight if performed after the Moon has gone New. As for collecting together or buying the things you might need – rose scented incense sticks, general crafts materials, bath oil ingredients and so on – this can be done in advance of the New Moon.
Many of us read the Prayer To Love either out loud or to ourselves, every day from the New Moon, so this year that lead up and preparation will start on 10th April, which is the day after the New Moon.
