Virginia spiderwort in bloom

Following the trail to see where it goes

Visited a historical area today and I felt like dressing up a little.

I was in a springtime mood today and the weather was lovely.

Spring flowers are here!

Spent the vernal equinox on a hike and the weather was perfect

Brigid In the Kitchen - Traditional Prayer

Brigid, bless the things I create

And the things I did not create:

Honey from the hive,

Milk from the cow,

Salt from the sea.

Ostara Oomancy

Oomancy, the art of egg divination, is a perfect activity for Ostara (the Spring Equinox) because of the strong association between the egg, the world, and new life.


You Will Need

  1. Two bowls
  2. Boiled (still hot) water
  3. An egg
  4. One white and one black candle (in safe holders)
  5. Moon water (optional)


Preparation

If it is part of your practice, cast a circle. As you sit with your ingredients before you, centre yourself. Ground yourself in the present moment by focusing on your breath, the sensations of your body, and your connection to the earth.


Casting

Boil a pot of moon water and carefully pour it into one bowl.

Set the bowls between the the black and white candles (black on your left and white on your right). Place the egg between the bowls and yourself.

Light the black candle and say:


Sister moon, shine your wisdom on this reading.


Light the white candle and say:


Brother sun, infuse your energy in this reading.


Cup the egg in your hands and hold it over the empty bowl and recite the following:


Sister and brother in equal time

Guide this vision and make it mine.


Crack the egg and, using the shell and empty bowl, seperate the white from the yolk. Drop the white into the hot water and read the patterns it creates as you would tea leaves.


Notes

Egg: symbolises the world and rebirth

White and Black Candles: represent the equality of night and day on the Ostara.
