    What It Is

    Day and night are equal; from here on, light wins. The goddess Ostara (Eostre) — from whose name we get Easter — walks with the hare and the egg, symbols of fertility and resurrection.

    How to Observe It

    Plant something today, even a single seed in a cup. What you begin now will bear fruit at Lammas.
