It was just a few days ago that the first Snow Drops poked their heads above the soil and let the warmth of the spring sunshine fall over the top of them. Here in Wisconsin, along with the sound of the Sandhill cranes returning from their migration south, this is one of the first signs of spring…and something that I absolutely cherish. Though by this point each year I’ve likely already spent weeks daydreaming about getting back outside into my garden, it’s the discovery of the year’s first snowdrops that tells me that Spring is officially on it way. Keep reading to discover how to celebrate Spring Equinox with crystals and a card spread!
This is the time that I start my transition from my Imbolc altar to my Spring Equinox altar, do a bit of spring cleaning in my sacred space, and begin to welcome in the magic that this season has to offer. At this time of change and transformation, which feels stronger this year than it ever has, I also look for some guidance and direction – sometimes tuning into my inner knowing as I listen to the wind on a blustery spring day, or paying attention to the symbols that surround me on an early spring hike, but most often by pulling a few cards, with intention and anticipation for the what they may share with me.
Set up your Ostara Altar with me!
Ostara welcomes in the Spring, the return of longer days, and the renewal of the land. At this time, plants and animals are beginning to wake up from their winter slumber, and nature seems to come alive as the earth begins to warm. As the land thaws from its winter freeze, seeds can be sown, new crops can be planted, birds and bees return to the sky, and livestock born at Imbolc are growing and being reared by their mothers.
To share some inspiration with you this season, I’ve pulled together a list of the best crystals and a card spread for the Spring Equinox!
Some of my favorite crystals to work with on and around the Spring Equinox are:
- Pink Calcite – a stone that represents the energy of spring blossoms unfurling and their qualities of expansion and sweetness.
- Golden Calcite – a crystal that represents the radiant light of the sun and its qualities of energizing and renewal.
- Aqua Calcite – a stone to represent the energy of new shoots emerging and their qualities of growth and healing.
