Equinox is coming! Equinox is coming! Ostara!

Tonight, tonight, it's equal day and night.

To acknowledge the balance between light and dark; to revere the growing strength and energy of the Sun who is now strong enough to conquer darkness; to acknowledge the time of new beginnings; to bless new goals and projects; to thankfully reflect on the gifts of fertility.

It is the time of the Green Man, that energy inherent in every cell of the natural world.

Tonight, 8:07 p.m. (Eastern) is the Vernal Equinox. (I know, that sounds kind of dirty, doesn't it?)

For observing the sabbats, I just found this GREAT spot on the Web, Archaeoastronomy.com. Check it out.
