Event Description

At the time of the Spring Equinox, or Ostara, the Alder is flourishing on riverbanks, roots in the water, bridging that magical space between both heaven and earth.

The Alder month is called Fearn by the Celts, and pronounced fairin.

This is a time for making spiritual decisions, magic relating to prophecy and divination, and getting in touch with your own intuitive processes and abilities.

Alder flowers and twigs are known as charms to be used in Faerie magic.

Whistles were once made out of Alder shoots to call upon Air spirits, so it's an ideal wood for making a pipe or flute if you're muscially inclined.

WEEKLY TAROT

Week of 8.2.26

If you have felt trapped and unable to take a step forward, this week's Eight of Swords encourages you to look deeply into yourself and determine what’s needed to set you free. You have the ability and means to untangle yourself from this mess, but you might be choosing to stay suspended instead.

Clear your head and ask yourself what’s stopping you. What’s keeping you stuck in place? Are you overthinking everything? If so, it might be time to bring things down a notch and make a decision. Sometimes doing that is all it takes to loosen your restraints and set you free.
