Ostara ~ Spring Equinox ~ Honey Poppyseed Cake
It is also a time to celebrate the Goddess of Spring and Dawn, Eostre, for which the Spring Equinox celebrations are named after and as legend has it transformed a bird into a hare and the hare responded by laying coloured eggs.
Other celebrations and dates of note are: St. David's Day (March 1st, Wales), International Women's Day (March 8th), Holi (March 8th, Hindu), Ramadan (March 10th, Muslim), World Pi Day (March 14th), St.Patrick's Day (March 17th, Irish), Mothering Sunday (March 19th, UK), World Down Syndrome Awareness Day (March 21st) and Rama Navami (March 28th, India), Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday (March 29 to April 21st, moveable March or April).
Baking with honey is essential during Ostara and the Spring Equinox as it celebrates the awakening of bees and plant life; while the poppy seeds represent fertility and abundance. Happy Ostara and Spring Equinox to all who celebrate!
