Vernal Equinox

When I actually get my research done, and get more rituals and High Days up, this will go under the appropriate section… but, I needed to record this:

Spring begins in the Northern Hemisphere on March 20, 2012, at 1:14 A.M. (EDT).


Mar 2 2012

It’s been a full year

My journey has stopped and started, and lurched around here and there, and I’m still not done by a longshot. I have yet to actually begin the documentation that will finish my Dedicant Path, and here it is – one calendar year later – and I feel I’m perhaps closer, but, not so deeply in to the material that I’m comfortable submitting a dang thing.

It doesn’t matter. It’s the journey that counts, and I’m overwhelmed right now. There’s no hurry.
