SPRING EQUINOX 🌱
The land around us is beginning to bloom, earlier this year too 👁️
The sun will move from Virgo to Libra, light will balance dark and the season shifts to spring. Welcome Ostara - the festival of rebirth, growth and new beginnings 🐣

Welcome this threshold with us at temple Maenad this Saturday 7-9pm @ Library Portal.
Welcome springs arrival 🌸
Build a small altar using natural symbols from the land. Seeds, flowers, feathers, snakeskin, eggs and vines (Jasmin is popping off right now).
This recognition helps you see the transitions mirrored in yourself 🪞
Honour the land spirits 🧚
They’re pretty active in spring! Leave an offering of flowers, nuts or seeds as reciprocity with the land you walk and work upon.
Balance 🌞
We move from dormancy to rebirth, dark to light, slumber to ascent. Focus your attention to what you can rebalance ⚖️
Watch the sunrise 🌅
Take a dawn walk, notice the shifting land and season. As you move into the light, ask what is being illuminated in your life?
Notice what is happening in nature… These will become your seasonal cues for years to come.
Work with flower 🌷
Use flowers in your spell craft to honour beauty, temporary cycles and our own ability to bloom.
Make a wreath, bundle or crown. Charge it with power, protection or charm 🌸
Reflect 📖
What wants to grown through you now? What needs to bloom? Journal your seasonal firsts, your intentions and spend some time asking yourself what you value? Venus in retrograde will reflect these questions 🤔
Sow Seeds both physical and spiritual. Plant seedlings or sow seeds in freshly tended gardens.
Infuse a seed with intention, plant it and watch it grow 🌻 I use sunflowers, as they will bloom at the summer Solstice. Consider your intentions and make practical steps towards them.
Breakfast - Make a breakfast feast symbolic of restoring energy. Include eggs, fresh seasonal fruit and veg, pancakes and/or solar buns. Invite friends to feast with you 🍳
Spring cleaning 🧹
Sweep stagnant energy from your home, open windows/doors, smoke cleanse with lavender, wash your floors with mint and basil and welcome fresh energy in.
