Ostara and Full Moon

Hello

After a very turbulent new moon period, which knocked many of us for six, we have the spring equinox at 22:01 GMT on 20th closely followed by the full moon at 01:45 on the 21st.

The equinox is marked as the Ostara Sabbat, a moment of equilibrium in the day lengths with hopefully the wild winter weather behind us and the blazing heat of summer yet to come.  The word was 'borrowed' by the Christians and became Easter of course. 

In the Human Design year Ostara always falls with the Sun in 25, the gate of innocence, and the Earth in 46 the gate of embodiment and serendipities which feels just right for Springtime!  This year we have Mercury in retrograde in 22, the gate that has been making a big mark this month, the gate of grace. 

Alongside Mercury in 22 we have Aphrodite, Prosperina and Klotho ... what a lovely collection of energies gracefully gathered.  Prosperina is in part about Springtime and rebirths and is the Greek equivalent of Persephone, Aphrodite is of course about love and Klotho is one of the Fates, the weaver of life associated with births and beginnings.  With Mercury retrograde perhaps take some time over the next few days to review - "Inside, the strength of simplicity and self-knowledge.  Outside, the beauty of acceptance and gentleness."  BBW - 22.

The Moon and Earth's position for full moon is 46 line 3 ... this from Hilary Barrett "If you are committed to change and progress, it is up to you to move on.  Travel straight through towards your objective; do not linger here waiting for the echoes to talk to you."

The Rune stepping forward for this time is Perthro, you can read more about it in February's post but to sum up it's about chance occurrences, serendipities, opening to new knowing, very appropriate with the Earth in 46 :-)

I shall be back next week with April's transits.
