Ways to Celebrate the Equinox as a Force for CHANGE

~ Fire Ritual. In a fire safe bowl call upon the Goddess of fire (Artha, Ostara, Eostre), your guides, and ancestors as you light your fire. Write down on paper all that you’d like to see transformed in this world. 

~ Fire Gazing. With a fire or candle, gaze into the flames and feel your own inner fire begin to rise. Speak aloud “Artha, Goddess of Fire, please help me manifest my desire: (speak your deepest desire)."

~ Build/Draw a Labyrinth. This is an ancient symbol used throughout the world to balance the right and left hemispheres of the brain. 

~ Chant Fire Songs! Singing can be a wonderful way to expel stuck energy. One of my favorites:

Firebird's Child- S.J. Tucker

~ Spend some time at the liminal times of the day (dawn and dusk) and meditate on the equal parts day/night. Pay attention each day to the growing daylight and feel your own energy become refreshed and renewed!

~ Research the Earth Based mythology around the origins of Easter, Eostre and Ostara as Goddess of fertility. It’s fascinating to learn to true story of why we dye eggs and celebrate rabbits this time of year! Learning the true Herstory of these traditions can be a powerful way to reclaim balance in the spiritual world as well.
