Happy Spring Equinox (late)

[Gameface]

Or happy Easter if you celebrate it that way.

The Equinox was March 20th.

Rituals and Traditions

Modern astronomy aside, people have recognized the vernal equinox for thousands of years. There is no shortage of rituals and traditions surrounding the coming of spring. Many early peoples celebrated for the basic reason that their food supplies would soon be restored. The date is significant in Christianity because Easter always falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the vernal equinox. It is also probably no coincidence that early Egyptians built the Great Sphinx so that it points directly toward the rising Sun on the day of the vernal equinox.
The first day of spring also marks the beginning of Nowruz, the Persian New Year. The celebration lasts 13 days and is rooted in the 3,000-year-old tradition of Zorastrianism.

Happy Easter and paganist/shamanist new year and new rose to everyone and peaceful Kurds not the ones that stir up violence with using nevruz.

I hope this spring goes lovely and brings joy and prosperity to all.


God bless us, everyone.
