This is the time of Springs return, the joyful time, the seed-time. When life burst forth from the Earth and the chains of winter are broken. Light and Dark are equal, it’s a time of balance when all the elements within us must be brought into a new harmony.

Mother

The Sun grows strong and Kore, the Dark Maiden returns from the Land of the Dead cloaked in the fresh rain, with the sweet scent of desire on her breath.

Where she steps the wild flowers appear. As she dances, despair turns to hope; sorrow to joy; and want to abundance.

Crone

May our hearts be open with Spring. Blessed Be
