Just thought I'd throw in some useful little Ostara tid-bits, fun ideas and stuff to-do
• Dye Eggs: Always fun & use them to decorate your altar.
• Planting Seeds: Ostara is a time of new beginnings!
• Pick Some WildFlowers: Don’t forget to thank them!
• Take A Walk: Appreciate and celebrate nature.
• Make A Spring Incense: 3 parts Frankincense, 2 parts Sandalwood, 1 part Benzoin, 1 part Cinnamon and a few drops of Patchouli Oil.
• Mix A Sabbat Oil: 3 drops Patchouli, 2 drops Musk, 1 drop Carnation
Symbols: Rabbits, Birds, Sun, etc and other Spring Animals!
Oils: Lotus, Ginger, Magnolia
Herbs: Violet, Daffodil, etc and other Spring Flowers!
Colors: All Pastel Colors!

Yay, spring. It snowed more this winter than I can ever remember. But then the last few days were really warm. I'm going to sew some clothes; namely, a baby pink two piece dress and a blouse and petticoat to wear under it. It's going to be sweet lolita style. I know it's an unorthodox way to celebrate, but hey, everyone needs some clothes for the warm weather. I think I'll sew it in a Circle.  ;D Maybe I'll make some of that incense too. I love patchouli, even though my family probably thinks it smells gross. |

Oh its SO spring TODAY! I saw many birds (seagulls to be specific) flying outside! And it was SO warm...silly me to go out in my winter jacket!  Katheros - naw, its not that "unorthodox"...plus as a wiccan you can pretty much decide which way you want to celebrate as long as it still holds its initial purpose and suits you! And Ostara is a time of new beginnings, so its a great time to sew some new clothes yourself as well! Oh patchouli incense is awesome! my family hates it as well...they jsut hate incense in general, they think it stinks! So it *is* very generous of them to put up with me burning incense, candles, etc! Blessings, Happy Ostara all! |
