Spring Equinox // Ostara
HAPPY SPRING EQUINOX / OSTARA
This time of equal day and night, of the sun crossing the celestial equator to create dancing aurora, feels like magic!
The balance between Winter and Summer, night and day, darkness and light, death and life, teasing us with the blossoming that awaits
It’s a time of growth, as we sprout from the seeds we’ve been tending, maybe planting new seeds into the fertility of our emerging energy, trusting in the promise of Summer
Perhaps also still shedding the skins of Winter, finding this beating drum of life’s rhythm potentially both enlivening + exhausting (especially if we didn’t get enough rest in the darker months!)
For me, Spring brings with it the wisdom and power of water (I am aware that in Druidic maps it is Air - for me that is Autumn!). The earth of Winter creating the holding river banks that allow us to explore, play, get curious about what is alive and stirring within us through Spring
Witnessing all that is present with curiosity and reverence
The sensuality of opening ourselves up to the contractions and the expansions, the spanda, that is life. To the wonder, the awe of being alive
So I lay my self at the feet of life with a big fat YES on Spring Equinox. With deep respect to Nature, Source, Universal Flow, Consciousness, Great Mystery, Goddess, Grace, whatever word resonates for you with the profound power of opening to the realities of our own unique existence and how our thread weaves into this great web of life
May the renewing energies of Spring tend to what is waiting to blossom, revealing the new that is emerging with love and patience
May the cycles of the seasons remind you that you are allowed to begin again.
And again
With love and power
