Ostara.....The Mother Gaia Cracks Open the Shells to Our Rebirth. For years Easter and/or Ostara were dark times for me....Not any more.
The veil has lifted to a fresh start. I always had faith that the sun would indeed return. This year it feels very new and different but in the past 4 it felt very cold and sad.
My beloved Mamaw passed on Easter Sunday 1981 and in 2012, on Good Frday, my Mother also left this realm.
After that I no longer could see the yellow, green, and pink life and couldn't feel the sun's gentle arms.
Even though this passing winter was a warmer one in the NW Ohio region, it was the same dreariness.
And now that it's over.....Warmth, peace, and light reign.
Letting go can be difficult when your belief is that the foundation of your being has fallen away. I did not think I had the strength to build a new one. When my youngest daughter got a full time job and I found myself alone in a space of family love with her absence.....I suddenly knew it was time to begin spreading the mortar and finding new stones. My husband feels it too.
As partners and as individuals we each will be laying a strong base for better days with the sun on our backs.
I always tell others "Blessings abundant". It's time to accept it for myself....As the cup begins to overflow, so shall I be standing in it's path.
