Ostara


Ostara is a Wiccan sabbat celebrated on the spring equinox, which is between March 19 and March 22 in the Northern Hemisphere. On the spring equinox, day and night are of equal length, from then on the days become longer than nights. It is a celebration of the end of winter and the beginning of the cycle of life. For Wiccans, Ostara is the day when the Goddess and God join in sacred marriage. So, Ostara celebrates the coming of spring, new growth and fertility.
Named after the Anglo-Saxon fertility goddess, Eostre, Ostara, which means ‘the Eastern Star’, is associated with the symbols of hares and eggs. To celebrate Ostara many Wiccans exchange colored eggs and plant an herb garden. It is also a time to reconnect with nature. Associated with Ostara are spring flowers, jasmine, seeds, ginger, nutmeg, frankincense, sandalwood, moonstone, rose quartz, jasper and the colors blue, pink and red.
Just as a side note, Ostara and Eostre have the same roots as the word ‘East’. They are not etymologically related to the word ‘estrogen’, which comes from the Greek oistros, meaning ‘frenzy’.

  1. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR.TAKUTA) THAT HELP
    ME GET MY EX HUSBAND BACK, AM SO HAPPY
    My name is LUCY SETHI from USA .I am here to
    give testimony on how I got my husband back.
    My husband left me for no reason 3 years ago.
    He moved in with another woman, I felt like
    killing myself, my life became very bitter and
    sorrowful. Then 1 day, a friend of mine told me
    about a great spell caster that is very good and,
    he said he gave him some lucky numbers that he
    played in a lottery and he won. I didn't believe it
    because I've worked with so many of them and it
    didn't work. He begged me further so I decided
    to try this great spell caster called DR TAKUTA. I
    still didn't believe. I used the spell he gave me
    and the next day I received a call from my
    darling husband Thomas last month. He
    apologized and came back to me. He even gave
    me 10,000USD as a means of compensating me.
