We totally did not plan this, but Sandro's sailing

We totally did not plan this, but Sandro's sailing partner for the last 4 weeks qualified for the junior championship at the @american_yachtclub today and tomorrow and asked Sandro to crew. So here we are. There are two teams from ( @thewaterfrontcenter ) The WaterFront Center , which Sandro and Nevada have both been sailing out of. Go 4126 and 4848! Let's hope the bolt holds.

Turn Back Tuesday, only because it is steaming hot in NYC right now and we want to imagine that we are cooling off.

Ostara and the Easter Bunny Cultures and religion

Ostara and the Easter Bunny

Cultures and religions have celebrated the arrival spring with different customs and traditions around the world. The vernal equinox is the time where night and day are of equal length and in perfect equilibrium of dark and light. Ostara/Eostre known is known as the Germanic goddess of dawn and spring. Pagans honor the arrival of Ostara in the month of April with festivals.

One story of Ostara may perhaps be the origins of the Easter Bunny. The Goddess Ostara arrived late one winter and when she arrived she found a pitiful bird who was dying with his wings frozen in the snow. Lovingly, Ostara cradled the shivering bird and saved his life. Since the bird could no longer fly, because of his frost-damaged wings, Ostara turned him into a rabbit, a snow hare. She also gave him the gift of being able to run with astonishing speed, enabling him to evade all the hunters. To honor his earlier form as a bird she also gave him the ability to lay eggs one day out of each year in all the colors of the rainbow. She named him Lepus.

Some say that Ostara made Lepus her pet and others say that he became her lover. Eventually however, Ostara lost her temper with Lepus, maybe because he was involved with another woman. She jolted him into the skies where he would remain for eternity as the constellation Lepus (The Hare), forever positioned under the feet of the constellation Orion (the Hunter). Ostara later remembered all the good times they had once enjoyed, and allowed Lepus to return to earth once each year, to give away his eggs to the children attending the Ostara festivals held each spring.

Whether you celebrate Holi, Nowruz, Easter or the Goddess Ostara, one thing is certain, the year is now waxing and light is beginning to defeat dark. The Sun is gaining in strength and the days are becoming longer and warmer. As we move past the point of perfect balance on the journey through the Wheel of the Year. We look forward to the summer days ahead, and know that it will not be long before Winter will arrive again.
