For the Files: Eostre/Vernal Equinox 2012

Eostre eggs after dark.

After the panic of learning we were a day off schedule (no thanks to that accursed Llewelyn calendar), we had wee bit of a scramble with the eggs, then Hubby had a sudden & unexpected date with a commercial freezer... sigh. 

But by dusk, we made it out to the tree with our eggs, thanks & wishes. 

Eggs, gratitude & dreams for the Equinox.

Twenty-four beautiful Spring eggs, courtesy my mother's hens. Creme, freckled brown, olive green & blue. 
Twenty-four notes, twirling in the breeze. Our messages of gratitude & our wishes, offered to the wind.
Brown (foundation) papers, three a piece, record that for which we give thanks.
Green (growth) papers, three a piece, record wishes for the new season which rushes forth.
Hanging little eggs on tiny brass wires, under the twinkle of the three planets.

This morning,

Sunrise, here in the balance, hanging at the midpoint.

Spring has sprung.
