Ostara/Eostre

The Goddess Ostara, or Eostre, is associated with fertility and it is during spring that she breathes new life into all us. Mother earth revitalises the life energy around us, and spring emerges with blossoms of effervescence and growth. As the days become brighter and the nights warmer, we find balance in light and dark.

Ostara is a time of birth and replenishment. It is an ideal opportunity to re-energise the body, stimulate the mind and invigorate the soul. Take some time to enjoy the exhilaration of restoration, find some balance within ourselves and embrace the nourishment and love waiting for us.

Illness

A prolonged period of illness takes its toll in every aspect. We feel emotionally drained, physically tired, mentally fatigued and spiritually depleted.

Many of us believe that an ailment or sickness can be a way that the body communicates with the consciousness that a change is in need. I too believe this to be true. When our physical and mental states are exhausted it is obvious the message is to slow down. A time to take care and nurture ourselves back to revitalisation. Stress can be a major factor for all of us, living in this hectic place that is constantly speeding up, and can manifest in differing ways.

Meditation is particularly useful to refocus and maintain positivity, to check in to see where we have overloaded. It is here that the necessary adjustments present themselves.

On a divine level, illness can be the body eliminating toxins for greater spiritual enhancement, clearing the path toward ascension.

And if nothing else, feeling healthy again is a reminder of how wonderful it is to have vitality, to have a clear mind and feel alive.
