What Is It? Ostara is a sabbat celebrating the Spring or Vernal Equinox. Modern Witches have been celebrating it since at least the 1950’s, and possibly even earlier.

Elephant Journal: 15 James Dean Quotes on Life & Purpose to Remind us Who we want to Be.
James Dean. Forever cool. Forever iconic. Forever frozen in time.
Ever since I first learned of his existence after watching his most well-known film “Rebel Without a Cause” in my high school English class (one of only three movies he ever made), I was immediately in awe and instantly smitten with the young man on the screen who acted with so much intensity, so much realness—and I became obsessed.

Inner Journey: PERSONAL POWER
“The deep root of failure in our lives is to think, ‘Oh how useless and powerless I am.’ It is essential to think strongly and forcefully, ‘I can do it,’ without boasting or fretting.”
— Dalai Lama
Angeles Arrien says that whether we are male or female, we need to develop three kinds of power. People who hold these three powers cannot be ignored.
- Power of presence – Being really present in each moment
- Power of communication – Speaking my truth
- Power of position – Being willing to take a stand
“A man’s true state of power and riches is to be in himself.”
— Henry Ward Beecher
“We are no longer puppets being manipulated by outside powerful forces; we become the powerful force ourselves.”
— Leo Buscaglia

Women and Men
“The sexes in each species of beings are always true equivalents – equals but not identicals.”
-Antoinette Brown Blackwell, The Sexes Throughout Nature (1875)
Isn’t it great that we’re not identical? We complement each other. It’s the yin and yang, the shiva and shakti, not opposites but an energetic combination of elements. We each do our part in sustaining the species. We’re here with each other, and for each other.
