Circle for Ostara Spring Equinox

At the Spring Equinox, the day and night are in equilibrium -- light and darkness are in perfect balance. Yet light is in ascendance; in the days that follow the darkness gives way to the growing light. It is a time to embrace both the light and the darkness, to acknowledge the dualities within ourselves, to bring polarities into balance, and honor the balance in all things. Traditionally, bonfires were lit on this night and cattle were driven between the fires to purify them and promote fertility. People leaped over the flames for fertility and good luck. We will surely color eggs, but maybe we can get to the fire jumping if anyone is able/willing to.
