Forest Harvest, Woodmill, Staffordshire DE13 8PG

Ostara, also known as Alban Eilir, is the moment of perfect balance — where light and dark meet as equals, and the Earth exhales into new life. Celebrated around Sunday 22 March 2026, this is the festival of sowing seeds, intention, and gentle momentum, as the light strengthens and the land begins to awaken.

This is the Light of the Earth — not yet blazing summer fire, but a steady, nourishing glow that encourages growth from within.

🌿 Sacred Presences

Ostara carries the fertile, life-quickening energy of Ostara, the Green Man, and Lugh — forces of renewal, guardianship of the land, and inspired action. Together, they remind us that life is returning, creativity is stirring, and the path forward is opening.

Awakening Spring

Ostara invites us to step gently forward, to honour what is ready to grow, and to trust the quiet intelligence of the Earth as it rises into life once more.

As the day and night stand in perfect balance, we gather to honour renewal, growth, and the awakening of the Earth. 

This sacred gathering will include

✨ Creating a sacred circle to open our hearts and unite as a collective.

✨ A soul journey into the depths of our being, connecting with the Wild Woman within.

✨ Earth Balancing Meditation and Sound Healing to align our bodies into the higher vibrations.

✨Invocation of Goddess Rhiannon to awaken and activate the power of the Divine Feminine within us.

Step into this sacred space to embrace the energies of balance, renewal, and the blossoming of life. Together, we’ll honour the turning of the wheel and the beauty of Ostara.

A Note on Energy Exchange

As the cost of materials, website charges and the time and care involved in holding sacred space continue to rise, there has been a gentle adjustment to the energy exchange for gatherings. This allows these events to remain sustainable, lovingly held, and rooted in integrity, while continuing to offer a nurturing, high-quality experience.

Thank you for your understanding and for supporting this work as it grows and evolves.

We look forward to sharing this powerful celebration with you!

Blessings of Ostara!
