“Ostara is Here”

Writes Brigit Anna McNeill . . .

Beautiful and growthful Ostara is here. A time where birds sing plants awake, where bumble bees begin to speak their low hum in response to the vibration of pollen, when greens, buttery yellows and golds begin to colour in the bare earth, where blossom and leaf bud open and the forests and hedgerows are once more blooming with medicine.

The voice of wild life force and growth is once more whispering, vibrating and singing within the trees, the nests, the little rooted ones, warm fleshy bodies, the tiny ones and the feathered.

May you too let yourself feel that life force, may it sing to you of life, of beauty, of regrowth, of dreams. And may it be to your body and soul, a beautiful wild guide.
