The earth begins to pulse with life; the seeds have germinated and the time of harvest is announced. Much energy is reaching the lands of the Southern Hemisphere, which vibrate with life.
This Esbat has few traditional rituals. It is chiefly a time of connection with the earth, but you may create a ritual for this night; I suggest healing, fertility, and prosperity work.
RITUAL
- Water
- Seeds
- Fruit
- Green, yellow, blue, pink, and white candles
- Basil incense or another herb that raises the vibration
- Music
- Preferably an outdoor setting
- Seeds for decoration
Open the circle. Put on music, even through headphones, and begin to move until you let go. Dance until your body feels warm and vibrant. Do not be ashamed: your divine parents have known you since before your birth and rejoice in your joy. Lie on the ground, breathe, and feel your warmth flow into the soil in a perfect exchange, where the earth energizes you and you energize it with the rhythm of the heartbeat. Give thanks to Mother Earth, Gaia, and make vows of love and honour in her name. After resting, eat and drink, setting aside the Gods' portion. Give thanks and close the circle. Leave the food on the altar or at a tree until the candle goes out, or for three hours, then bury it.
It is done!
