1. why do we actually celebrate the dance into May?
The dance into May is actually a spring ritual with pagan origins. It celebrates fertility and the start of the warm season (which I can well understand). With dance and music, people want to honor the gods and spirits and strengthen their own life forces.
Today, the first day of May is more about celebrating the joy of life and spring. In many places, classic dance-into-May parties and maypoles are celebrated. 🐞

3 Why is the dance into May also called Walpurgis Night?
The name originally comes from St. Walburga, who lived in the 8th century. Her feast day was actually May 1st and so her vigil (a religious service held on the night before a feast day) was celebrated on the night of May 1st.
Over time, pagan traditions and Christian customs merged. Walpurgis Night was associated with witches and the devil, as it was believed that spirits were particularly active on this night. Today, it is a celebration of spring and a reminder of old traditions. ✨

Labour Day is a public holiday because it honors the historical struggles of the labour movement and its achievements for better working conditions and social justice. The movement originated in the USA, where hundreds of thousands of workers went on strike for an eight-hour day in 1886. Today, the day continues to serve as an opportunity for trade unions and political parties to demonstrate and rally.
