Who can lay claim to a holiday, or a holy day?
Today is the first Sunday after the first full moon, after the vernal equinox. If ever there was a pagan-y way of fixing a feast on the calendar, that’d be it. But no matter. The quickening of spring-time is among the most natural and most welcome causes for celebration. It’s no wonder we share it so widely among our disparate selves and our many varied tribes.
So whether today is your Passover or your Paschal, dedicated to Eostre or Ostara, or perhaps it’s just a particularly notable day for you to chill and enjoy the turning of our seasonal wheel…so be it, and peace and happiness be upon you and yours and upon us all.
