About this Event
Celebrate the Spring Equinox through floral artistry and tea as we honor the earth's renewal and the perfect balance of light and dark. Ostara is linked to the Germanic goddess Ēostre, the goddess of the dawn who, according to some, represents fertility and the arrival of spring. (More on that in a moment.) The vernal equinox is about balance, renewal, and the return of the light.
What to Expect:
We'll begin with a mindful tea ceremony, sampling curated herbal blends that celebrate spring awakening while setting intentions for what we want to plant and nurture in this new season. You'll learn the Victorian language of flowers and discover the hidden meanings behind roses, chrysanthemums, alstroemeria, and other spring blooms—then select flowers that speak to your intentions for renewal and growth.
Rachel will guide you through creating a beautiful arrangement to take home while sharing stories of spring traditions and seasonal symbolism with fellow participants. We'll provide materials for writing intention cards to tuck into your bouquet, making each creation a living reminder of the seeds you're planting for the season ahead.
