For Ostara? Lots of Easter like stuff, LOL!! Decorating and hiding eggs, celebrating the Spring Equinox, Bunnies, and lots of feasting Most of the stuff with the mainstream Easter celebrating are derived from Ostara/Pagan roots!

Is there any planting ritual for spring? I have an urge to do something to celebrate the earth and planting and new life...?

As the saying goes, when a door slams shut in one place a window opens somewhere else. After staring at the door for many years, it finally occured to me to go look for the open window. I discovered I like sunlight and warmth much more than peeling old doors anyway, so I climbed out the window and reveled in my discovery. I will never sit behind a closed door again, no matter how comfortable my chair becomes. Me
Mel, I'm glad you found your own open window and stepped through it.
Yes, there is! We blessed some seeds today, and our high priestess is going to plant them for us. Normally we would bless seedlings, but the storms and such have thrown off the planting plans
Imbolc is the Spring planting festival, so now is the time to plow, prepare and plant
