&lt;p&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ostara / Eostre / Spring Equinox&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sun enters Aries&lt;strong&gt; |&lt;/strong&gt; Color: White&lt;strong&gt; |&lt;/strong&gt; Planting Day &lt;strong&gt;|&lt;/strong&gt; Waxing Moon&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As Spring reaches its midpoint, night and day stand in perfect balance, with light on the increase. The young Sun God now celebrates a hierogamy (sacred marriage) with the young Maiden Goddess, who conceives. In nine months, she will again become the Great Mother. It is a time of great fertility, new growth, and newborn animals.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The next full moon (a time of increased births) is called the Ostara and is sacred to Eostre the Saxon Lunar Goddess of fertility (from whence we get the word estrogen, whose two symbols were the egg and the rabbit.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Christian religion adopted these emblems for Easter which is celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox. The theme of the conception of the Goddess was adapted as the Feast of the Annunciation, occurring on the alternative fixed calendar date of March 25 Old Lady Day, the earlier date of the equinox. Lady Day may also refer to other goddesses (such as Venus and Aphrodite), many of whom have festivals celebrated at this time. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Traditional Foods: &lt;/strong&gt;Leafy green vegetables, Dairy foods, Nuts such as Pumpkin, Sunflower and Pine. Flower Dishes and Sprouts. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Herbs and Flowers: &lt;/strong&gt;Daffodil, Jonquils, Woodruff, Violet, Gorse, Olive, Peony, Iris, Narcissus and all spring flowers. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Incense: &lt;/strong&gt;Jasmine, Rose, Strawberry, Floral of any type. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sacred Gemstone: &lt;/strong&gt;Jasper &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Special Activities: &lt;/strong&gt;Planting seeds or starting a Magickal Herb Garden. Taking a long walk in nature with no intent other than reflecting on the Magick of nature and our Great Mother and her bounty.&lt;/p&gt;

This is a really personal post, so shove it if you don’t like it. 

Most of ilex_amethyst’s post, which is shown below my own comments, can be said of myself, give or take a few things. It inspired me to write all this, so yeah. Bear with me.

 I don’t have a husband, but I do have a wonderful boyfriend. I have 3 older brothers and 1 younger sister, so I’m that awkward kind of middle child. Both of my parents were alcoholics and drug addicts. We lived in squalor; all I can say is to imagine filth, no food, and no electricity. The memories of all that happened there are too many, too vivid. At age 2 I was taking care of my infant sister while my brothers were in school. She’s like my child. Hard to describe.

My siblings and myself went into the foster care system…no way to describe it unless you’ve been in it. Afterward 1 brother, my sister and myself lived with our grandparents; my other 2 brothers got sent to another grandparent. That split-up was so hard on all of us.

 Sometimes I’d give anything to have no memory of anything before age 15. 

I never, ever want to be a child again. All I ever wanted as a child was to be grown up, and I’m glad some wishes come true.

&lt;p&gt;and they’d rather be kids again…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I grew up without a home most of the time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Swapped around from family to family.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was dragged to churches that scared me by different family members.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Watched as my mother tried to kill herself with drugs and sliced her pretty skin to try to deal with…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description><link>http://what-not.tumblr.com/post/19236203059</link><guid>http://what-not.tumblr.com/post/19236203059</guid><pubDate>Tue, 13 Mar 2012 10:55:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0qz6mmj991r07wr5o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://what-not.tumblr.com/post/19211965724</link><guid>http://what-not.tumblr.com/post/19211965724</guid><pubDate>Mon, 12 Mar 2012 21:22:33 -0400</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
