Happy Ostara! I'm spending some extra time in the gardens today, even though our overnight lows this week prevent me from doing anything very serious with that time.

I typically don't, but a bonfire with friends sounds like a fun tradition to start.
While I do have a brush pile stacked and ready to go, my area is currently under a high fire danger warning due to the dry and windy conditions. Maybe the autumnal equinox will have more favorable conditions.
It's a very warm and springy day here in Salt Lake, supposed to be 67 degrees. But I'm sick with a bad cold, so - no celebrating. I managed to get through the winter without getting sick, but now - of course now I come down with it.
We have been trying to celebrate the solar holidays more but the spring ones haven't felt right. It's still so cold and we got 7 inches of snow forecasted this week. We might celebrate more when it feels like spring. Likely at Beltane.
Goodbey winter depression!
