Thank Christ Happy Spring All

[lapd]

Thank Christ January is over, what a month, way way too many three tones!

Now its spring, longer days,warmer. Lots of the greatest people ever born in February
And the month of love ( although most of the three tones were caused by love)
So take a step back and spread the love too much crap in world, leave this place in peace.

Going to bed soon, so only a few hours tonight to wear sandwich board.

Big love to all.

How did you know I was one of the greatest?
My birthday is at the end of the month, but not saying which date of course.

This thread could get nastt.

So they have changed it.
When I went to school. Winter was November, December and January. Spring was February, March and April.
Always thought myself that winter should be the four months November to February. Spring should be 2 months March and April. Summer should be 4 months May, June July and August. Autumn 2 months September and October. But some idiots keep insisting that there are 3 months in a season.

Happy Imbolc or Saint Bridgetts day!
First day of Spring is today according to the pagan Calendar
The Hill of Tara would have been the place to be last night and this morning. Between the triple full moon last night and the sunrise this morning lighting the Mound of Hostages.... Bet the party is still going.
Wishing I could have been there dancing around the fire.

To be fair, the old Irish way is based on the length of days, so Dec 21 is mid-winter, and 23-Sep is mid Autumn (September = Mean Fomhair), which is why they taught that (and I think still do) in Irish schools. So if June 21 is mid summer, it stands to reason that 23-Mar is mid-Spring and so Spring starts 45 days before 23-March, so roughly the start of February. But meteorlogically the coldest months of the year are December, January, February and the warmest are June, July, August which is how most northern hemisphere countries and met.ie define winter and summer.

I like your idea though.

Dec 21 the shortest day of the year. Or winter Solstice is actually New Year's Day in Paganism . The turning of the wheel, the death of winter and conception of Spring.
