Ostara Blessings to all. The Spring Equinox - when night and day are both at equal length. If you go out late afternoon you might just catch the rising Moon in the sky at exactly the same time the Sun is about to set. Early in the next morning you can also see the Moon in daylight just as the Sun is rising. In between these two events is a period of complete balance between day and night, Sun and Moon, masculine and feminine, light and dark, God and Goddess.

This is a special point of balance, on this day light and dark are equal, but the light is now surpassing the dark as days will grow longer and nights shorter, warmth is taking over cold, life is taking over death, today we truly say goodbye to winter.

This is a time of major transformation for the earth. The great wheel has turned as we pass into a new season. We notice new buds forming on branches, the birds will start returning and animals will come out of hibernation, flowers will start to shoot up and fields and grass will become lush and green.

The young horned God is growing stronger and the Goddess is in her maiden form. The young Sun God takes notice of the Maiden Goddess and the stirrings within them seem to be felt in all living creatures. All the world seems renewed, refreshed and bursting with possibilities
Ostara is an Anglo Saxon and Celtic fertility festival worshiping the Goddess Ostara or Eostre as she is also known. Eggs and rabbits are her fertility symbols. The egg resembles new life and birth and the rabbit signifies fertility.

The Horned Sun God also known as The Oak King or the Lord of Light, the God of the waxing sun and the Gods Pan, Cernunnos and other Sun Gods such as Sol, Apollo, Attis, Ra and Horus are also worshiped on this day.

Eostre is the Saxon version of the Goddess Ostara. Her feast day was held on the first Full Moon following the Spring equinox. this is the identical time as the Christian Easter when Jesus was said to be resurrected from death, they adopted this day for Jesus resurrection when they were converting Pagans into Christians. The Sun God Attis who was born via a virgin birth is resurrected each year during the time on the Spring Equinox. The Goddesses Ishtar and Persephone were also both resurrected from death on Ostara.pn

Ostara is a time of newness and rebirth, it is a time to clean up and clear out all our old junk, this is where we get the term spring clean from. But it isn't just clearing out our homes it is also clearing out the junk and negative energy that we carry around with us. Let the new energies of the Sun and the Spring rejuvenate us. Welcome in the new, breath new life into you and look to the future with hope and optimism.

The Spring Equinox is a time of balance of both light and dark, it is a time to look within ourselves and balance our thoughts and emotions and to find balance in our lives. To embrace our dark and our light equally as one cannot exist without the other. This is a time to stop, relax and enjoy our personal achievements, whether they be from toiling in our gardens, working at our jobs, raising our families, or just coping with the hustle and bustle of everyday life. What we put into life we will get out, what we plant now can grow into something amazing.

🌕 Grand Rising under the Wolf Full Moon — First Supermoon of the New Year 🐺✨

Grand Rising Beloved,

The Wolf Moon rises as the first full moon of the year, arriving as a supermoon — closer to the Earth, brighter in the sky, and heavier with meaning. Its light presses gently on your spirit, inviting you to call yourself back.

This moon is named for the wolves who howl through the deep of winter — not from loneliness, but from connection and power. They call to their pack. They claim their place. They do not shrink to survive. They remember who they are.

The Wolf Moon invites you to:

• call back your wild self — instinct-led, untamed, and true
• reclaim your power after seasons of dimming or silence
• stand rooted in your truth, unapologetic and whole

As a supermoon, its pull is amplified. Emotions rise. Truths surface. What has been sleeping within you begins to stir. This is not chaos — this is awakening.

Winter reminds us that power does not vanish in the dark. It rests, gathers, and returns — stronger, clearer, ready.

So let yourself howl if you need to — in breath, in prayer, in intention.

Call back your wild.
Call back your power.

✨ Affirmation ✨
“I call my power home. I honor my wild knowing. I rise rooted, radiant, and whole.”

The year has begun.
The light is strong.
And you rise with it.

Blessed Be
Mystic Mana 💜

The winter solstice guided meditation/cacao ceremony was such a beautiful evening of souls gathered together to journey into their heart spaces. So much gratitude for those that joined me and trusted me to guide them through their own personal journey during the longest night of the year. Excited to make this an offering for the spring equinox, summer solstice, autumn equinox and winter solstice each year. Stay tune on my page for future listings of this beautiful offering.

With the encouragement from the participants of October‘s witchy workshop, I put together a new witchy workshop for the holiday season … witch bells and Yule blessing balls. So much gratitude for those who join me for a beautiful evening of crafting and learning about some other witchy rituals/tools. I absolutely love how they all turned out and how everyone put their own twist on how they wanted to decorate them.
