Full Wolf Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Wolf Moon (Native American) at 13* Cancer will culminate, January 3, 2026, 2:03 am pacific/5:03 am Eastern (Ephemeris). This Cancer Full Moon is about activating your speaking abilities. Knowing that your friends and loved ones need constructive conversations with you.

In this transformative period under the Cancer Full Moon, the cosmos is beckoning us to engage in meaningful dialogues. The emphasis is on activating our speaking abilities. Our voices hold the power to heal, inspire, and connect to our family and friends. As long as we detach from negativity and embrace constructive conversations. It’s essential to follow our best advice, guided by a clear sense of right and wrong. Putting a touch of enthusiasm into our speech. As we organize our thoughts, we should be vigilant of red flags, recognizing when situations may lead us astray. This clarity of thought will empower us to articulate our dreams, desires, and aspirations, both for ourselves and those around us.

This lunar phase also lets us know that listening becomes as vital as speaking. We should explore but not linger on what has hindered us in the past… be it a lack of knowledge, a health regime, or emotional barriers. But it’s important to honor our personal paths and realize that every bump and heartache has created you a bigger and better person.

As we stand at the threshold of renewal, we must acknowledge that this moment is a gift, allowing us to reconnect with our soul’s intentions. The journey of self-discovery and reawakening involves embracing the innocence and readiness we possessed at birth. We are called to reclaim lost parts of ourselves, merging them back into our essence. Life is an adventure, and as we embark on this journey, we realize that the path to balance and harmony is often marked by simplicity and common sense.

What could make you win

What could make you content

—-The flame within your soul is to be reignited, your verve, your ideas, talents, solutions, and decisions are to be seen. Whatever is dormant is now active.

*How to become powerful: You must have role models to emulate; you don’t always have to be liked, but you must fulfill what people need. You will have to have a “Strategy and Skill”. You will keep strategizing, knowing how to guide yourselves and others into growth and abundance. Be careful, as you can end up working in boring jobs for many years and gain no real power or prestige. You can want recognition. But there is only one thing to remember and again plan for, power has “an end”. You will be usurped by the younger generation or go out of vogue in some way. If you can be fair and aboveboard, you’ll gain respect along with money. You can keep going forward, having a great life, well-earned, and be treated nicely in old age.

*Using your Intuition: Using your intuition and psychic ability to move forward. Feeling good about the decisions you make. Knowing when wrong feelings happen, they can indicate going in the wrong direction.

*When meditating, remember you’re going to go past your mind, and it’s set ideas, and proceed toward the heart, taking it deeper, releasing false sentiments, and just float in your divinity, going deeper and deeper to your very essence. Reaching into the core of your being. Shift into knowing you will begin to float in calmness as the eclipse takes away anxiety and confusion, replaced is gifts of knowledge and wisdom, quality of time, and being one with your adventure on earth.

—– “The most basic of all human needs is the need to understand and be understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them.” —Ralph G. Nichols

Item : The Sacred Circle
Meditation By Tara Sutphen

 Following Tara’s “under the stars” induction, you travel to a sacred stone circle in the middle of a meadow. Here, in the center of the circle, you meet a beautiful woman dressed in chiffon. As she chants, you experience an expanding vortex of power within: “Where light meets darkness … where the beginning encircles the end … where joy nullifies pain … we now choose to slip between the worlds beyond time, beyond space, and we invoke the positive powers of the Universe to assist us to manifest our desires.” Chakra balancing is followed with an inspiration ritual in which you open your heart and mind to the limitless positive potentials of life on earth. You withdraw an object from a box that relates to your purpose. Walking counterclockwise you recall a happy event from the past and transmit the vibrations into the present. A clock becomes a symbol placed in the circle to assist you make the most of your valuable time. Much more. 30 Minutes.TS216

SHOUTOUT LA article with Tara Sutphen

by Tara Sutphen, posted in spiritual

Meet Tara Sutphen | Author, Hypnotherapist, Metaphysician & Radio Host

December 22, 2025 Leave a reply

We had the good fortune of connecting with Tara Sutphen, and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tara, we’d love to hear what makes you happy. Tara:  Looking inside to be cheerful. Even when I’m not sure of what that looks like, as happiness is a work in progress of fleeting feelings. Life is about presence, being genuine, and authentic. So many people struggle with shyness, lack of confidence, and fear. I love hypnotherapy as it bolsters the spirit, eases the mind, and sparks the body into activation. I use my psychic and hypnotherapist abilities to offer solutions. There is always a way out. My inner happiness may not always be giddy, but I’m deeply content; my path came early… to help others is my calling. Oh, and, deep happiness for me too… is to love horses, I do horse therapy too.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans, and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work. Tara: I could say it wasn’t a planned career, but every person I’ve met and all the events I’ve experienced are predestined. I faced many trials on my journey, which gave me a great depth of empathy and understanding. I am content and fulfilled with my purpose. I have always combined hypnotherapy and psychic ability together with my clients, students, and seminar groups.

At merely six weeks old, I danced with death, a fragile infant caught in a 7 1/2 hour surgery, given last rites, and not expected to survive. The NDE I had gave me an awareness that would guide me. As a baby and toddler, I was very aware of everyone’s issues and feelings. At eight years old, I was hemorrhaging and moved onto the operating table just as I had the last gasp, experiencing the euphoria and white light and having conversations with Ethereal beings. Yet another close call further deepened my awareness of mortality. It was during these moments that my psychic abilities emerged even further, leading me to connections with shaman, priests, and holy humans. They recognized in me as a kindred spirit, a vessel of untapped potential, and approached me easily. When I was young, I thought everyone experienced this…my world has been filled with “the seers”.

Raised in diverse environments, from the streets of the San Francisco Bay Area to the serene landscapes of Alaska, my upbringing was infused with a rich tapestry of cultural influences. The deep connection to nature, my horses, and the spiritual realm is evident in my practices, as I incorporate elements of shamanism and mysticism into my sessions.

I found that the combination of hypnotherapy and psychic intuition created a powerful synergy. Hypnotherapy allowed clients to access their subconscious, uncovering hidden fears and traumas, while my psychic abilities offered insights that transcended the conventional therapeutic boundaries. When I first ventured into the realm of hypnotherapy, it was with a sense of curiosity and purpose. I began to psychically connect using my innate divination skills. I sought to delve deeper into the subconscious of the querent. The practice of Telepathy, Clairvoyance, Clairaudience, Clairsentience, and Automatic-Writing became bridges, allowing me to channel insights and messages that emerged during in-depth trance sessions. In this sacred space, clients would often relive their past traumas, uncover fragments of past lives, or past experiences of this life, where they sought my perceptions in each session. I’d uncover hidden layers of their issues while they were under hypnosis. I would be looking for solutions and seeking direction for their issues and problems. My experiences fostered a profound understanding of life, death, and the unseen forces that bind us all. This unique journey has not only shaped my career but has also sculpted my philosophy toward healing and self-discovery.

My purpose has crystallized into a mission of healing, understanding, and growth. The trials I faced—each near-death experience, each moment of vulnerability—have become my greatest teachers, guiding me to serve others with compassion and insight.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?Tara Exploring the Soul of Los Angeles with Friends!

When welcoming a friend to the vibrant city of Los Angeles, I always aim to craft an experience that is as refreshing as it is fulfilling. Upon picking them up at the airport, my first stop is always “Cafe Gratitude” in Venice, known for its nourishing, plant-based dishes that leave you feeling energized and inspired. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, perfect for rekindling our friendship after a long flight. As they head off to bed I give the a Nuskin rejuvenating and hydration face mask to use.

After a restful night, before coffee, I offer them a Lifewave X39 patch, to stimulate light wavelengths which help activate stem cells. I then love to introduce my friends to the healing power of horses. We head to the most serene location, my barn, where I offer horse therapy, allowing them to connect with these magnificent creatures. Whether it’s on a massage table or engaging in shamanic exercises, this experience is transformative and grounding. Following our equine adventures, we unwind with infused herbal teas at The Healing Tree in Thousand Oaks, a cozy spot that promotes relaxation and rejuvenation.

As the sun sets, it’s time to indulge in the culinary richness of LA. The city is a treasure trove of Mexican cuisine, and I often recommend Sabor in Valencia for a delightful dinner. The ambiance is enchanting, and the flavors are authentic, making it an unforgettable dining experience. Other favorite evening spots include The Odyssey in Granada Hills, where you can enjoy stunning views alongside delicious meals, and Cafe Habana in Malibu, known for its vibrant atmosphere and flavorful dishes.

For a touch of elegance, Gracias Madre in Beverly Hills offers a unique twist on traditional Mexican food, featuring organic and locally sourced ingredients. If my friends are in the mood for a romantic setting, Tra di Noi in Malibu is a must-visit, combining Italian flair.

During their visit, I also love to explore the natural beauty of the area. We stroll through the Huntington Gardens, a serene escape filled with lush landscapes and diverse plant collections, or visit the Lake Shrine, a peaceful spot ideal for meditation and reflection. And of course, no trip to LA would be complete without a wander along the beautiful beaches, where the sound of the waves provides a perfect backdrop for heartfelt conversations. Gallery’s, movies, plays and events are a must in the city as well.

Lastly, I often set up a session at my treatment room for some hypnotherapy from me, allowing my friend to unwind and explore the depths of their consciousness in a supportive environment.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?“Born Again to Be Together” is a heartfelt testament to the profound connections and unwavering support that shape our lives. Central to this narrative is Cynthia Hudson, the inspiring owner of Aspiring Magazine, whose encouragement ignites a flame of creativity not just within me but in countless other Angelenos. Her friendship acts as a beacon, guiding us to produce work that not only inspires but also aspires us to reach new heights.

The bonds I share with my best friends, Carmen Anderson and Marla Maples, are woven through decades of unwavering support and soul-deep connections. Each shared laugh, tear, and triumph adds layers to our friendship, making it a sanctuary where we can be our true selves. I often reflect on how fortunate I am to have collected such incredible individuals in my life. They are the very essence of humanity—kind, encouraging, and relentlessly uplifting.

Family plays an equally significant role in this tapestry of love and support. My family—William, Hunter, Cheyenne, and Everest—stand by me like pillars, offering strength and reassurance. The love from my brothers, Scott and Jason, my sister Amy, and our dear mother, Marianne, is an unwavering force that reminds me that no matter the challenges we face, love is always the answer.

This narrative isn’t merely about the people who surround me; it’s a celebration of the community we build together—a community that thrives on encouragement, camaraderie, and the shared belief that we can achieve greatness when we uplift one another. In a world that often feels chaotic, these relationships remind me that love and support can conquer all, and together, we can rise and aspire to be even more.

In my book “Soul Writers,” I have woven the essence of my friendship with Jess Stearn into a tapestry of shared wisdom and exploration. Jess was not just a friend; he was a kindred spirit, a beacon of light in my life, and our decades-long friendship.

Jess Stearn (April 27, 1914 – March 27, 2002) was an American journalist and author of more than thirty books, nine of which were bestsellers. We met in Hollywood at an Italian restaurant where people came to sing “opera”. The Lords of Fate clapped that day. Jess soon introduced me to my future husband, whom I married on his deck overlooking the ocean in Malibu. Each baby I had, he was present with the family in the waiting room. But he was especially tickled when I had a baby on his birthday! All holidays and everyday life was filled with camaraderie.

As we navigated topics like the power of intention, the significance of dreams, and the potential of human consciousness, I felt an exhilarating sense of awakening. He taught me that the boundaries of reality were often self-imposed, and that the exploration of metaphysics and the paranormal was not just an intellectual pursuit but a deeply personal journey toward understanding oneself and the universe.

As the years passed and my own work began to unfold, I started to realize how profoundly our paths had intertwined. Coincidentally, my research and pursuits began to mirror some of his own. The themes we once discussed—reincarnation, the nature of consciousness, and the exploration of psychic phenomena—found their way into my professional life. I found myself writing, teaching, and sharing insights that echoed the very ideas we had passionately debated on those warm evenings filled with laughter, wonder and lots of orange juice and/or my home cooking..

The experience of automatic writing has been both humbling and exhilarating. It is as if Jess, in his new form, is still passionately exploring the very questions that once consumed him. Each session feels like a dialogue with his spirit, as if we are continuing the conversations we once had, albeit on a different plane of existence. The messages that emerge are often profound, shedding light on the nature of the soul, the continuity of consciousness, and the interconnectedness of all beings. He challenged me to think critically and to embrace a unique voice, reminding me that every story is worth telling.

Full Harvest Moon

Full Harvest Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Harvest Moon (Native American) at 15* Pisces will culminate on September 7, 2025, 11:09 am PDT/ 2:09 pm EDT (Farmers’ Almanac). This full moon is also a Total Lunar Eclipse: The eclipse will be visible across Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and much of Europe and Africa on Sunday night into Monday morning, local times. Viewers in most of the Western Hemisphere, including North and South America, will miss the event. The September lunar eclipse will reach its maximum phase, when this Blood Moon is fully immersed in Earth’s dark umbral shadow. Almost 77% of the world’s population will be able to witness the entire total phase of this eclipse, according to Time and Date.

This Pisces Moon has asked us to quiet down and reinvent ourselves. Rebirthing a new you, or an idea to bring to light. Tapping into your deeper self. You are to reduce worry and reform long-term opinions and beliefs. If your life isn’t changing for the better it’s time to rework your thought process and your daily habits. Especially as we have a total lunar eclipse, when we have an eclipse, it’s time to change or let go of something holding us back. Take time to meditate on what you’d like unblocked or cleaned up in your life, as it brings something exciting or illuminating to each of us.

Find time for simple pleasures, take baths, meditate, get a massage, silence our minds, draw, paint, do alone things. Get yourself a good book or write in your journal. No complaining, only solutions and your genuine desires and goals. No need to reflect at this time. You’re being asked to search for your peaceful place, to find rejuvenation, you’re getting ready for a brighter future, and to master the goals you set before yourself.

How to Gain a Calm Mind:

  • Don’t overthink

___ Rebirthing is a deep personal journey. There can be worn-out methods of how you’ve done things before. Whether it’s been failed relationships or losing your confidence and footing. Maybe you’ve been struggling with your health. Clear your mind of toxic thoughts. Clear your body of toxic waste. You can regain yourself step by step. Ideas + Effort = Progress. You can manifest in various forms — whether through religion, meditation, nature, or personal reflection. Cultivating Mindfulness through Meditation: Meditation and Hypnosis Programming are powerful tools for growth. You need only to begin…

—— Transitions are a part of life, allowing for perpetual renewal. When you experience the end of one chapter, allow yourself to feel the emotions of loss and rebirth. A bud gives way to a new flower, which surrenders to the fruit, which gives rise to a seed, which yields a new sprout. Even as you ride the roller coaster, embrace the centered internal reference of the ever-present witness. ~David Simon

Lughnasadh

by Tara Sutphen, posted in spiritual

Lughnasadh

By Tara Sutphen

Lughnasadh is the harvest and reaping of great rewards; it is also a day of feasting. Lugh is the Celtic God of Light, and this Pagan Sabbat is the midpoint between the Summer Solstice and the Autumn Equinox. Some bake a figure of the “corn god” in bread, and then symbolically sacrifice and eat it. The tradition of eating and sharing the first fruits, vegetables, and grains of the season started with Lughnasadh in Ireland. In England, it became the medieval festival known as Lammas Day. In keeping with the Lughnasadh tradition, the first grains were offered to the gods, the form of a baked loaf of bread. The loaf was blessed and cut into four pieces, with one piece placed in each corner of the home for good luck.  

The non-sporting competitions in festivals were singing, dancing, poetry-reading and storytelling. Trial marriages were performed, couples would join hands through a hole in a slab of wood. The experimental marriage would last one year and a day, after which it was annulled without question.

Celtic festivals like Lughnasadh was an opportune time to make political, social and economic deals. All weapons and rivalry’s were laid down so the neighbors could get to know one another. Chieftains held important meetings, farmers would make trade agreements about crops or cattle for the coming season. 

A common tradition of Celtic festivals were to visit holy wells. People would give offerings to the wells and decorate them with flowers and garlands, they could leave coins or clooties (cloth). They would walk around the well in a sun-wise direction praying to the Gods.

Summer Solstice

by Tara Sutphen, posted in spiritual, Tara Sutphen

Summer Solstice, Midsummer, Litha

By Tara Sutphen

20th/21st June

“In the world’s audience hall, the simple blade of grass sits on the same carpet with the sunbeams, and the stars of midnight” – Rabindranath Tagore (Indian Poet, Playwright and Essayist, Won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913, 1861-1941)

Summer Solstice marks the end of the waxing year. And the rays of the sun directly strike one of the two tropical latitude lines. June 21 marks the beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere, as winter begins in the southern hemisphere. On this day, the earth’s “circle of luminescence” will be from the Arctic Circle to the Antarctic Circle. The equator receives twelve hours of daylight, as there will be 24 hours of daylight at the North Pole and 24 hours of darkness at the South Pole.

All over the world people honor this day as an important reminder of the apex of light and to cast away evil and their problems. Northern Hemisphere inhabitants use June 21 as the day of celebration, but the splendor of light lasts from new moon to full moon.

Worshipping the Sun’s great power, all cultures celebrate in some way. Celts and Slavs dance around bonfires while Chinese marked the day honoring Li, the Goddess of Light. The celebrants of modern and ancient ceremonies tune in that life comes from the sun. It is life giving and life supporting. We’ve recently had the good fortune to have electricity, greenhouses, and shipment suppliers. How will you celebrate? We all may not get a chance to dance around the bonfire but it’s a time to bask in the light, sit in the sun, cast our worries away and awaken to our lives.

Full Flower Moon

Full Flower Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Flower Moon (Native American) at 22* Scorpio will culminate, on May 12, 2025, 12:58 PM PDT/ 3:58 PM EDT (Farmers Almanac). 

This Full Flower Moon is about improvement and refinement. How are you fairing in your everyday way of being. What areas do you need to recover emotionally or physically.  The first stages to bounce back in areas of health and vitality are self-compassion, plenty of sleep, and mild exercise. This moon reminds us of renewal on a cellular level. Quiet the mind and get centered again… you take the world for a ride, it doesn’t take you for one. Betterment is a key to progress.

The three indicators of burnout are:

  • Insufficient energy or fatigue
  • Being negative or feeling cynical
  • Performing poorly

This is not the time to feel ineffective, meek, or unmotivated; as others are set in place to help through struggles. Whether through listening to common sense, polishing your skill set, or being open to your elder’s/mentors’ suggestions. Throughout this month, stop to listen often, take notes, and proceed effectively.

Recovery:

  • Professional counseling, hypnotherapy, massage, or a support group
  • Monitor stress level – keep a journal
  • Change our mindset
  • Have a cup of tea
  • Nature watching
  • Taking a walk
  • People watching
  • Yoga
  • Stretching
  • Exercising
  • Epsom salt bath
  • Vagus nerve self-massage
  • Hypnosis
  • Massage
  • Set boundaries for yourself
  • Set boundaries for others
  • Healthy eating
  • Sleeping well
  • Good hygiene
  • Finding a hobby

When you’re going through bumpy times, it’s best to become aware of them. Proceed toward refocusing on the positives in your life and not the negatives. We can become disillusioned by people, especially when they show acts of unkindness. But that is on them. 

You know when you’re being unkind to yourself. We can all be very far from where we think we should be emotionally or energetically. We can base values outside ourselves, instead of working on what creates our inner wholeness. We are given many shamanic and natural signs, where we are asked to turn away from dissension and negativity, and step toward our brighter futures, where we are getting into the practice of getting better and better. 

Journal Questions:

Are you constructive or destructive:

  • About yourself
  • Or others
  • Family
  • Friends
  • Work arena
  • Neighborhood
  • City
  • State
  • Country
  • World

Are you trying to be invisible – or are you outwardly visible?

Are you seen as Constructive or Destructive?

  • House
  • Love
  • Family
  • Parents
  • Mate
  • Children
  • What do you want and why
  • Constructive or Destructive
  • Love
  • Career
  • Job
  • Health
  • Relationships
  • Friendships
  • Happiness
  • Exercise

How can you change: List 3 things if not 3 sentences

  • Love
  • Career
  • Job
  • Health
  • Relationships
  • Friendships
  • Happiness
  • Exercise

 Your Aspirations:

  • Spiritually
  • Emotionally
  • Intellectually
  • Materially
  • Physically

Relationships, friendships, and work can become less uncomplicated with shared enthusiasm.  Patience is a virtue, especially when listening to others’ wisdom and expertise. We learn how to achieve together in tandem. A lovely heart begins with ourselves and extends toward the goodwill of others. Trusting our intuition is a big component. Not everyone has your best interests at heart. But you can, by having the best intentions for others. It is important to live our truth… our progress is to regain our livelihood every day. It is a part of our fate and purpose to be the best we can be.

—— 

“Tears fall like liquid leaves 

into the streams and full, 

autumn-coloured rivers of our blood 

And liquid leaves become crystal 

in our winter fortress 

before they flow 

shifting, changing 

rich red by grace of autumn 

and fertile in the spring” 

― Tamara Rendell, Realm of the Stag King

It’s about tapping into “the good” in your life, and not the bad. We create our reality every day and to live with rose colored glasses might be the suggestion of the pink moon.

No grinding into the next hours or days, every day should be pleasant. It starts with us and how we expect it to be. We should come to expect balance and beauty, not opinions, snide remarks or terseness. Our health depends on our will to be of higher mind. 

Lacking passion is fatal. So it’s up to you to find it again, and again. The divine spark is in you, holding sacred space in your heart and mind.

Spring Equinox

Spring Equinox, Ostara, Eostre, Easter, Vernal Equinox

By Tara Sutphen

Spring Equinox is March 20, 2025 and marks the mid-point of the Waxing Year, the nights and days are balanced once again; the time when Kore, (Persephone) was believed to have returned from the Underworld where she had ruled throughout the Winter. The spark of light, born at Winter Solstice has reached maturity, and from here onwards, the days progressively grow longer than the nights.

Western culture proclaims this the first day of Spring. Older traditions called the Spring Equinox, Ostara; the time of the festivals of the Grecian Goddess, Eostre, and the Germanic Ostara, both fertility Goddesses of Dawn. These influenced the naming of the modern-day Easter Holiday. New greenery bursts forth from sleeping seeds in the countryside, as metaphorically, pagans also plant their own seeds for future goals, future projects and growth at this time. Decorated eggs, being symbols of fertility are symbolic of Ostara.

In days gone, Europeans gave gifts of decorated eggs to new brides, in the hope that they would bear many children. Similarly, bowls filled with eggs were given to farm workers by the farmer’s wife, to ensure a rich harvest. Most all cultures see the egg as a symbol of Life; the actual home of the Soul. In Russia, decorated eggs are still given as gifts to loved ones and buried in graves to ensure rebirth. The women gathered the eggs only from hens which were around a rooster and decorated them, allowing no one to watch them work as they transferred the goodness of the household to the designs on the eggs, thus keeping evil away. Dyes were mixed to secret family recipes and special blessings placed on each egg.


Colors of Ostara Eggs:

White:

Purity

Yellow:

Wisdom, a successful Harvest, or Spirituality

Green:

Spring, rebirth, wealth, youth, growth, happiness

Blue:

Good health, clear skies

Orange:

Power endurance, ambition, courage

Red:

Happiness, hope, passion, nobility, bravery, enthusiasm, love

Brown:

Enrichment, good harvest, happiness

Purple:

Faith, trust, power

Pink:

Success, friendship, love

Black:

Remembrance

Lore:

The custom of eating Hot Cross Buns also has pagan origins. The Saxons ate buns that were marked with a cross in honor of Eostre; Ancient Greeks consumed these types of buns in their celebrations of Artemis, Goddess of the hunt, and the Egyptians ate a similar cake in their worship of the Goddess Isis.

There are conflicting ideas as to what the cross symbol represents. One suggestion is that it is a Christianisation of horn symbols that were stamped on cakes to represent an ox, which used to be sacrificed at the time of the Spring Equinox. Another theory relates to

—Moon worship; the bun representing the full Moon, and the cross, its four quarters. Christianity gave new meanings to the symbolism of the buns, saying the cross represented the Crucifixion Cross. Thus, superstitions arose crediting these buns as being charms against evil, so after Good Friday, people would save one or two of them to hang in their homes as amulets. During the festival season and indeed, for a long time afterwards, fishermen would carry these Easter buns in their boats, for protection.

The Spring Equinox defines the season where Spring reaches it’s peak, with the powers of light increasing. The God of Light, (Llew), now gains victory over his twin, the God of Darkness. Llew was reborn at the Winter Solstice and is now old and strong enough to vanquish his rival twin and mate with his Mother Goddess. The great Mother Goddess, who returned to her Virgin aspect at Imbolc, welcomes the young Sun God’s attentions and conceives a child. The child will be born nine months from now, at the next Winter Solstice, when the cycle closes, only to begin anew.

The Easter Bunny is another symbol which has obvious links to fertility, rebirth, and the abundance of life which is evident in Spring.

Eostre was a playful Goddess whose reign over the earth began in Spring when the Sun King journeyed across the sky in his chariot, bringing the end of Winter. Eostre came down to Earth then, appearing as a beautiful maiden with a basket of bright colorful eggs. Eostre’s magical companion was a rabbit who accompanied her as she brought new life to dying plants and flowers by hiding the eggs in the fields.
