I’ve released a new tune for the spring equinox (as the first part of a year-long project), but given how the name of the associated neopagan festival (Ostara) is derived from the Anglo-Saxon deity Ēostre who also lent her name to Easter, It doubles up as an Easter tune. Even features chicks pecking.

The #equinox is on the 20th. Still have a little under 2 weeks to plan.
I finally put my Wheel of the Year-themed cross stitch patterns on my ko-fi shop (for free/pay what you want).
I've been wanting to do that for a long time, but never found the spoons for it.
I spend a lot of time making these four years ago and I'm still quite proud of them 😊
It's Lammas/Lugnasadh in the southern Hemisphere today, celebrating the harvest.
Harvest festivals always seemed to make the most sense to me when I was a kid, celebrating something important and real.
Blessed Imbolc!!!
Happy #february
Rabbit,Rabbit, Rabbit!!

The Sun Greets Us In The Morning
I will never crave the sunlight the way I do at Imbolc. I’m not a fan of the heat, so eventually the sun and I will settle into a grudging detente through the summer. But now, when it had been so cold for weeks, cloudy and grey, when I have been leaving the house in darkness and coming home bare minutes before the sun sinks towards the horizon, my spirit reaches out towards the sun with such yearning.
At Imbolc, the sun is up noticeably earlier in the morning, and sets around dinnertime. While the weather hasn’t changed and may not for a while yet, the lengthening days lift my spirit. I turn my face to the sun to get every scrap of light on my cold face. This winter has been a frigid one, with snow accumulating without respite. It’s beautiful, but at Imbolc, I feel how temporary it is. The Wheel continues to move. At Imbolc, the energy shifts, and I feel more alert, emerging from my winter burrow rested and ready for new adventures. I didn’t know if I’d make it to rested this winter, but for the last week or so, I’ve been bursting with energy.
It feels strange to be full of life at the same time we watch the world contain such pain. It’s strange to be just a border away from a country being pushed into authoritarianism, but heartening to see the resistance coming from people protecting their neighbours, their communities. This Imbolc-tide, I set an intention to help as I can, and to be vigilant at home to protect against our own versions of these people who want to harm and divide. I also intend to joyfully create in the face of destruction, to turn my mind to new projects and to strengthen the web of community around me. The Sun returns, and the Wheel reminds us that it always does, that change is inevitable.
Happy Imbolc!
Trying to stay focused on a spark of hope this Imbolc, as the light returns. 🕯️🌻
This year it feels like I need to really concentrate to see the light in the dark, instead of it coming to me, as it used to, like the sun at dawn.
