    About this ebook

    Ostara is also known as the Vernal or Spring Equinox, Eostre, Alban Eiber, Bacchanalia, Lady Day, and Festival of Trees. It is celebrated on or about March 20-23, depending on the lunar cycle.

    The Vernal Equinox is the official first day of spring, exactly six weeks since Imbolc, so really it doesn’t matter whether or not the Groundhog saw his shadow; spring officially begins now. The light and dark, feminine and masculine are equal; the energies of earth, sky, water and air are balanced perfectly.
