A charming May
When you think in May, the idea is overwhelming, usually always the same for all the years that summer is at your doorstep. As if only the summer season is important and before there was nothing else. Ischia, in its entirety, but also in this fifth month of the year, has its own characteristic linked to that transition period that the ancients had consecrated to Apollo. Better, more than one. Altogether, as it looks so much to the visitor as attentive to the islanders, they intertwine, walking along roads, paths and paths of the whole territory that in certain respects tells us about itself and traditions with the actions of man. These are acts of will, passion, coming out of the karstic path where they had plunged through the centuries to return, and to slip on the surface. Passion, in fact, becomes medium, form and content.
From father to son, is handed over to the cellar Mazzella that occupies one of the most spectacular spots. On this ischia mix history, legends and science. The recent “miraculous” Nitrodi water research study, known since Roman times for its beneficial effects, was that the grove and the source were considered sacred by the Romans themselves, and was carried out by Professors Maria Costantino and Amelia Filippi of the University of Salerno. Research again confirms the properties of this water, which, if used, can give relief both to the treatment of some skin diseases but it can restore the body to its natural healthiness. May is the month of roses and transition. In the middle Ages, it used to celebrate it by planting in front of houses with poles and gifts. The first day of the month is dedicated to Flora. It is no coincidence that Ipomea, at the Negombo Thermal Park, is an event not to be missed in May, in order to celebrate the flourishing and explosive Nature. May gives us a chance to widen the perception of the senses, and our horizon and research, which does not exclude the simple walk to discovering fantastic scenarios, becomes the central tool for building the field where diversity, or what only to us Individuals look different, combine through beauty, regeneration, smells, and make personal vibration almost universal.
