Description
On or around the twentieth of March, the sun crosses the celestial equator and day and night stand in rare, fleeting equilibrium. For those who follow the Irish Wheel of the Year, this is not merely an astronomical event — it is a spiritual threshold, a hinge point in the year where the dreaming of winter must begin to become the doing of spring.
The Spring Equinox: Balance Beneath the Blossoms is a deep, practical companion to this sacred turning, grounded in authentic Irish mythology, sacred landscape, and centuries of living folk practice. Inside you will find the mythology of Aengus Óg, Boann, the Dagda, and Danu; the archaeology of Loughcrew’s Cairn T; Irish folk customs surrounding seed blessing, holy wells, and animal omens; expanded rituals for solitary practitioners and groups; seasonal recipes including nettle soup, spring honey oatcakes, and equinox dressed eggs; and guidance for practitioners in diaspora on adapting Irish seasonal practice to any landscape.
Written by a priest of Irish Paganism with over thirty years of practice. Part of the Wheel of the Year Companions series from Forgotten Rites Publishing.
