Spring Equinox Rituals

At Spring Equinox, in the east of the wheel, the sun crosses the celestial equator moving north. The day and night are in perfect equipose: All over the world on that day, they are of equal length. What was conceived in the darkness of winter is now born. Newborn life is fragile and vulnerable, yet pulses with the vital power of the life force within. The first sprouts are peeking up out of the earth. 

Spring Equinox is the peak of the power of birthing creativity into form --- an opportunity to increase your energy and outward thrust so that you birth your dreams into the material world. 

After today, the days will be longer than the nights.
