Spring Equinox – Ostara – Seasonal Festivals Incense
When the days grow longer than the nights, the mood shifts: inward turns outward, stagnation gives way to new beginnings. Ostara is an incense blend for precisely this moment in the cycle of the year – light, floral, and clear. It's perfect if you want to bring fresh energy into the room, release burdens, and consciously mark the start of the brighter season.
Ostara – Spring Equinox in the Annual Cycle:
Ostara refers to the annual festival celebrating the spring equinox, which takes place around March 20 or 21. At this time, day and night are approximately equal in length. After this, the light continues to increase.
In many European traditions, Ostara was associated with the beginning of visible growth. Nature awakens, plants sprout, and the cycle of the year enters a phase of increasing activity.
Ostara is based on the astronomical position of the sun and is therefore slightly dependent on the date. Natural rituals and the conscious perception of balance and new beginnings accompanied this section of the annual cycle.
Today, Ostara is primarily understood as a cultural and nature-related tradition that makes the transition to spring and the balance of light and darkness visible.
