Spring Equinox 3/19-3/20

As we celebrate the Spring Equinox, a time of balance between light and dark, ancient wisdom from various cultures reminds us of the powerful forces of renewal, fertility, and cosmic order that this season embodies.

Osiris, god of fertility and renewal, symbolizes the cycle of death and rebirth. Ma’at, goddess of balance, teaches us to honor the harmony between light and dark during the equinox. Hathor, goddess of love and fertility, brings abundance and new beginnings, tied to the Sun’s life-giving energy. Oya, the Yoruba goddess of transformation, clears stagnation and ushers in new growth, reminding us that change is vital to life’s cycle. Eostre (or Ostara), goddess of dawn and fertility, embodies renewal and balance. Her symbols—hares and eggs—represent new beginnings and growth, influencing modern Easter traditions.

As we step into Aries season, we are called to embrace bold new beginnings and ignite the energy of transformation. Aries’ dynamic fire encourages us to act with passion and intention, making this the perfect time to plant seeds for the future.

This equinox, as we enter the new astrological year, we are invited to honor the balance of light and dark, reflect, and begin anew. May the wisdom of these ancient deities guide us toward harmony, transformation, and abundant growth.
