Purim Ostara - Spring Equinox

Ostara is the Germanic Maiden Goddess of the spring. She lends her name to this festival. Her symbols are the hare, spring flowers, and, of course, eggs. This year the Spring Equinox sabbat falls on a Sunday, which is associated with the Sun, new beginnings, and success. Pick up some fresh flowers for your home. Dye some hard-boiled eggs for the sabbat with your friends and family today. Go ahead and make Ostara baskets for your kids. Include Ostara's hare (the chocolate bunny), hide those eggs, and have some fun! Also, don't forget to go outside and celebrate the beginning of spring. Look around you, what signs of the approaching spring do you see? Are daffodils and crocuses blooming? What about the buds on the trees- see how they are swelling? Celebrate the turning of the wheel of the year by spending some time in nature!


Ostara, gentle Goddess of the spring,
Sweet Maiden, new beginnings you do bring.
Your symbols of the hare,
eggs, and springtime flowers,
I'll include into my own magical powers.
By this sabbat's magic, the spell is spun,
For the good of all, bringing joy and fun.
