Birthing Peace Spring Equinox Celebration
March 21, 2012
Honoring the Changes
We invite you to join us in the celebration of this magical time of year where we are called to join with nature in the exuberant process of rebirth.
After the dream-time inward journeying of winter Nature shifts Her energy to begin the ‘rebirth' process. Seeds are planted; the Earth comes alive and is fertile. Within Her gentler breezes and warming days Nature beckons us to be lively participants in this story of creation.
Through meditation and ritual we will take time to be conscious participate in the cycles of creation, remembering and giving thanks to that which gives us life.
Protection, Fertility, Wisdom, Strength, Gratitude and more will be the essences we will use to breath new life into what is yearning to burst forth in yourself and in the Earth.
The Birthing Peace Ritual is intended to create a flow of Peace energy that will ripple around the world bringing joy and ‘the promise a fertile tomorrow' to all it touches.
We will begin promptly at 7pm.
DONATION: Suggested $10 - $15
PLACE: Spirit of the Earth, The Living Centre, 5871 Bells Rd., London, ON.

About the Spring Equinox
Spring Equinox, also know as Ostara (Eostre), occurs in the middle of March approximately March 21st. It marks the beginning of Spring and the time when days and nights are of equal length. In many traditions this is the start of the new year.
Ostara (Spring Equinox) is the beginning of the fertility festivals. Buds begin to push their way through the earth to reach the strengthening sun's light; animals breed; the energies of Nature shift subtly from the torpor of Winter to the exuberant activity of Spring. It is a time of new beginnings, of action, of saying goodbye to the old and making room for the new. The light will continue to increase until the Summer Solstice June 21st.
Dates:
The 21st of March ~ Spring Equinox
The 21st of June ~ Summer Solstice
The 21st of Sept. ~ Fall Equinox
