Did you know May is named after Maia, the Roman goddess of growth? That tracks, because in May everything suddenly decides to grow at once – flowers, weeds, grass, and somehow your to-do list too. It’s the month where nature flips the switch from “slow and sleepy” to “full chaos mode.”
It’s also one of the most unpredictable months weather-wise. One day feels like summer, the next feels like you accidentally time-traveled back to March. May doesn’t believe in consistency, and honestly, that’s part of its charm.
