The Spring Equinox

The Spring Equinox is (20. March 2025)

This beautiful festival is often called Ostara which means the festival of fire. There are equal hours of light and dark as we celebrate and honour the Mother of Rebirth. During this time and turning of the wheel we can paint eggs which symbolise the rebirth of after the long dark months of Winter.

The Earth really does come alive now, the stirrings of Imbolc (February 2.) now come to full bloom and the preparations in nature begin for the blooms of Summer in June at the Summer Solstice.

At this time we pray for the light to enter any place in our own lives to diminish the darkness within. We ask for courage and enthusiasm on our spiritual path.

How to celebrate the Spring Equinox

Spring cleaning - this could be preparing garden, cleaning the house or clearing out your wardrobe.
Bring yellow flowers into your home.
Get outside and notice the buds and new flowers.
Refresh your altar.
Celebrate the move from the darker months of Winter into the longer and lighter times of Spring & Summer.

The Spiring Equinox is a powerful time to manifest. Below is a little ceremony I am sharing with you for Manifestation.
