The Seed. a tarot spread for ostara.
1. The Soil.
Where have you grown? While it most certainly is the dawn of a new day, keep in mind your roots are proof that you have already come a long way. The soil is your past. What lesson can you learn from days gone by?
2. The Weed.
You wish to flourish and grow strong, but there is undoubtedly something that is stunting your progress. What are your obstacles, what’s holding you back?
3. The Seed.
Within your immediate future, which area of your life will you first see signs of growth? Which seed has taken hold?
4. The Sun.
The love and support of others is helpful. But the will to grow comes from within. Let the sun be a reminder of what you need to keep in mind in order to help yourself grow.
5. The Rain.
A blessing in disguise. Understand that not all things are always as they seem. Grey skies can sometimes bring you down, but like the sun, rain too is necessary. Through struggle, you will find strength. What blessing in disguise is upon your horizon?

Rustic Milk + Honey Cake. 🥛🍯🌿
Ingredients: - Yellow cake mix. - Three eggs. - Honey. - Milk. - Vegetable oil. - Powdered sugar.
1. Prepare the cake mix as described on the box, but substitute the water in the recipe for ¾ parts milk and ¼ parts honey. If you have to estimate, that’s okay. 2. Add a little more honey. Life is short. 3. Bake at 350 degrees for forty minutes, continually checking after the thirty minute mark to make sure it’s not burning. Plunge the tines of a fork into the body of the cake; if it pulls out clean, it’s ready. 4. Pull out of the oven and set to cool. Sprinkle powdered sugar across the top for a delightful effect. Decorate with berries or citrus if you’re feeling extra fancy; remember, they’ll topple off in a very endearing manner when you cut into it to serve.
This simple rustic cake is very easy to make and will please you and whomever you choose to serve it to. It is excellent for Imbolc, Ostara, and (if you add a little cinnamon and nutmeg), Mabon.

She of the Saffron Robe and Beautiful Hair. Nocturnal One, Keeper of the Keys. Hekate, hear me. Upon this night the path is open. Approach the crossroads of the world and be with me. Keeper of Ancient Wisdom, She who guides the souls of the dead across the river. You who are black as night, red as blood, wise as time everlasting. You who are The Pale Mother.
Be present at this my hallowed rite. I bow to you, Lady. With scent and flame I make offerings to you. With honey and cider I pour a libation to you. I have given my blood that you may know me. Keep me, for I am one of you special breed. I bow before you Hekate. Come, hear me, know my name, be with me. Invocation of Hekate
I invoke you, beloved Hekate of the crossroads and the three ways. Saffron-Cloaked Goddess of the Heavens, the underworld, and the sea. Tomb-Frequenter,, mystery-raving with the souls of the dead. Daughter of Perses, Lover of Wilderness who exhalts among the deer. Night going one, Protectress of Dogs, Unconquerable Queen, Beast-Roarer, Disheveled One of Compelling Countenance. Tauropolos, Key holding mistress of the whole world. Ruler, Nymph, Mountain Wandering Nurturer of Youth. Maiden, I beg you to be present at these sacred rites. Ever with a gladsome heart and ever gracious to the oxherd.
Orphic Hymn to Hekate I call Einodian Hecate, lovely dame, Of earthly, wat'ry, and celestial frame, Sepulchral, in a saffron veil array’d, Leas’d with dark ghosts that wander thro’ the shade; Persian, unconquerable huntress hail! The world’s key-bearer never doom’d to fail; On the rough rock to wander thee delights, Leader and nurse be present to our rites Propitious grant our just desires success, Accept our homage, and the incense bless. Hymn to Hekate Hail, many named mother of the Gods whose children are fair. Hail mighty Hekate of the threshold. Shape the course of my life with luminous light and make it laden with good things. Drive sickness and evil from my limbs, And when my soul rages about worldly things, deliver me purified by your soul-stirring rituals. yes, give me your hand I pray And reveal to me the pathways of divine guidance that I long for. Then shall I gaze upon that precious light. Whence I can flee the evil of our dark origin. Yes, give me your hand I pray And when I am weary bring me to the heaven of piety with your winds. Hail, many named mother of the gods whose children are fair. Hail, mighty Hekate of the threshold.
