May Day has become known primarily as a Communist holiday, divorced from the meaning it held for our ancestors when it was celebrated as Beltane. The Communists appropriated what had always been a holy day of the European people, a sacred day on which they did not labor, and turned it into a materialistic, secular holiday, devoid of any real meaning. The National Socialists, instead of banning May Day, instead embraced, celebrating the hard-working laborers in the worker’s Reich.
By organizing May Day celebrations, starting right after coming to power in 1933, the Reich was able to gain support from the “salt of the earth” in Germany, championing their cause. There were fireworks, an air show in Berlin, with songs that praised labor going out over the airwaves all day, and of course, Hitler’s speeches that honored the German worker as being a great patriot and the backbone of the nation. Berliner Morgenpost had been an outlet for the political left, but praised the National Socialists for their May Day festivities.
The worker’s Reich was not about setting the working class against the business owners; on the contrary, they sought to build a unified folk and eliminate class hostility. The National Socialists had a concept of Volksgemeinschaft, which means “people’s community”, something of a racial soul that unified the different people of Germany, connected by “blood and soil” in a kind of organic macro-organism.
We should learn from the National Socialists about bridging the gaps that divide our folk, instead of incessantly warring with each other in a contrived paradigm, with the “leftists” and “rightists” always at each other’s throats. We need to show our folk that Capitalism and Communism are simply two sides of the same jewish shekel, and both have resulted in the Chosen ones running the show.
One of the major problems is that our people are materialistic, lacking a strong spiritual connection with one another and with our land, which allows us to be divided and easily conquered. This is one of the reasons it is imperative that we end the control our enemies maintain over not only our politics (eg, labor rights), but also our sacred festivals. Let us reclaim them for ourselves!
For more on the ritualistic aspect of May Day, we turn to Seana Fenner from Odinia:
Our Odinist rituals and holidays help us to connect with our own culture and with who we are. At times, the fire inside of us has been so dampened or lessened by the strange and artificial conditions so many of us live in that we sometimes forget that we are alive. We no longer see the primacy of the life force, or the beauty of nature, and lose sight of the fact that all of this is an adventure, a miracle… Odinist holidays like Beltane and May Day bring us to life again in that they help us to remember what is most important and vital to us.

From the most ancient beginnings of our Pagan past, Beltane, also known by more Christianized names such as Valborg, or Walpurgis, has been celebrated at the heady time of May Eve. It is a holiday of purification, of new light and life, of freedom, and of fire. In this season, since time immemorial, our people have sent their herds to summer pastures, driving them through the center of two bonfires built on a hill, and singing songs and incantations to ensure their health and fertility after the long Winter season. People also passed through the healing flame 3 times ritually or leapt over the fire 3 times.
The ashes of the Beltane fires were placed over the crops to make them fertile and were also smudged on people’s faces to impart fertility to them as well. There was feasting, a sacred Beltane cake was made, and very interesting and intricate ceremonies we still have records of were performed. Libations were poured to the Gods, and European people still performed such rituals continuously, asking for their blessings, until relatively modern times. […]
Fire is a central part of the symbolism of the life force of our folk. It is a sign of magic, fertility, and tribal unity. Like the sacred tree, the holy flame represents the heart and soul of our being and our immortality, not just individually, but also in the sense of going forward and backward in time to our ancestors, to us, and to generations yet unborn.

As we know, fire ceremonies were very important to the National Socialists. Not only did they have their powerful torch rallies, which continue with European nationalists to this day, but they also came up with the Olympic flame ceremony and the passing of the torch, which has happened ever since.
Many brilliant flames of our European blood were lost in World War 2, consumed by the firestorms of the Allied Holocaust (see Hellstorm, released May 1, 2015), but the flame of European resistance to jewish tyranny was not entirely extinguished. In recent years it has been rising higher and higher, with it now growing into a massive bonfire.
I know the odds seem stacked against us, but we must not let the fire of our people go out, submerged by endless waves from the 3rd world. Let us look to history for inspiration. Let us build our future on a solid foundation.
