Ostara

Also known as the Vernal Equinox, Alban Eiber, Bacchanalia, Lady Day and Jack in the Green Day, the Sabbat of Ostara is named for the ancient German Virgin Goddess of Spring (and of course, let us not forget Eostre, from whose name the Christian 'Easter' was born). Archaeologists estimate that the Spring Equinox was first celebrated as a religious festival in tribes and clans as long as 12,000 years ago. It's no wonder then that many of the equinox stories from Greece, Rome, Germany and the Nordic lands tell of the Deity's trip into the Underworld. After being in the land of the dead, they return to Earth and bring new life with them. This death and resurrection theme is a common thread in the stories of Persephone, Hera, Odin, Osiris, Attis, Orpheus, Dagda, Mithras, and even Jesus.

Being an Equinox, Ostara is a time of balance as well as new life. It is a good time to plant an herb garden. Even if you don't have a yard, you can plant herbs in flower pots or window boxes. They can be for medicinal purposes, to cook with, to make tea from or any other reason you can think of to plant and use them.

How the Ostara Egg Came to Be

The modern belief that eggs are delivered by a rabbit, comes from the legend of the Goddess Eostre. Eostre was walking one fine Spring day and came upon a beautiful little bird. The poor bird's wing was badly injured and Eostre, feeling great compassion for the little creature, wanted to heal it. But the little bird' wing was so badly damaged that Eostre knew it would never be able to fly again even after She healed it. So, Eostre decided to help the bird by healing it in a way that would give it mobility and a little something more� She turned it into a rabbit!

During the transformation, the rabbit retained the ability to lay eggs. The rabbit was so grateful to Eostre for saving its life that it laid a sacred egg in Her honor, joyously decorated it and then humbly presented it to the Goddess. She was so pleased and so touched by the rabbit's thoughtful gift that She wished all humankind to share in her joy. In honoring her wishes, the rabbit went all over the world distributing these beautifully decorated little gifts of life and continues to do so even today.
