Ostara (March 21st), the spring Equinox, also called Eostra's Day, marks the first day of true spring. On Ostara the hours of night and day are equal. This is always a good time to plant seeds for your garden. If you have an altar and wish to decorate it, you may want to get a cloth that represents spring. I have a light blue one myself. Green, light blue, yellow, pink, these would be good colors.

You can put items on the altar that represent spring. Fresh flowers, branches from budding trees, symbols of spring fertility. Eggs are a really good representation of spring. Crystals you could use are, amethyst, rose quartz, pale aquamarines, and moonstones. Some incense include; jasmine, nutmeg, cinnamon, and frankincense. Some good food for Ostara include: bread, fresh greens, beans, and of course EGGS!!!!!!

There are also many activities you can do on Ostara, they are really fun and great to do if you have kids. You can bake some bread, string up plastics egg as a garland over your door, you do this by drilling a small whole in the eggs. You can dye your eggs and decorate them however you wish. You can plant a few seeds either indoor or outdoors. Taking a walk in nature is always fun :D
