For those who are a little over-organized, the moment is to occur in an hour or so, if I remember what the time and date site said. We can finally say that Spring is Here (even if the weather isn't agreeing completely)

Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Lol. I was going to mention the weather.
Actually , it's a pretty nice day today where I'm at for a change.

Meh. My day is middle of the road, good and bad. Kind of 50/50.
My partner got himself out into the sun for quite a while today, using his walking poles. There are still snow and ice obstacles, but soon...soon...

Your day is in flux? Makes sense, 50% raven / 50% ... is that a bear?
No wonder I felt in balance today.

I like this when the length of sunrise to sundown is 12 hours long; we had a brutal polar vortex smack us hard here in Illinois with sub 20 below zero temperatures at the end of January; I'm so glad the outdoor temperatures here now are warmer than in my freezer ...

Canadian wintry weather lasts too long for my liking.
And a Happy Naw Ruz to all as well. Our new year breaks the fast, so I am now having a cup of tea
Regards to all, Tony
And mine...just haven't figured out how to fix it yet...
The full moon is in exactly 59 mins. where I am.
Indeed. Lovely full moon and nice weather. Happy Spring.

I celebrated with a festival for Gaia, and bought her a bunch of scented narcissi (or perhaps they were narcissuses…)
The scholar (or perhaps the pedant) in me cannot resist pointing out that the definition of spring as beginning at the equinox is only used in astronomy — though why they need a special definition escapes me. The OED defines spring as "the season when vegetation begins to appear" — the beginning of February for me, although not for some of you!

There are many Springs...Astronomical, Astrological, Meteorological, Biological...of course for some areas, these distinctions are not particularly relevant, and other kinds of seasons hold sway...and those in the Southern Hemisphere are experiencing the Fall season...
