BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Folklore and Mythology Spring Equinox

I agree Lauren. I love that feeling when I close my eyes and look toward the sun.... I can feel the healing rays penetrating me and warming me, even it it's still a wee bit chilly outside.

We had snow and cold cold weather on the Equinox, but by Wednesday it started to warm and today my crocus and hyacinth are showing their colors. The other day I saw a robin so big she MUST have been ready to lay eggs. we have a magpie nest and a robins nest in view of the front yard <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I love Spring

Yesterday I took my kids to the park and I actually got sunburned! It was just so amazingly beautiful, and I never got hot... didn't even think about it UGH!

Fiona, your garden sounds wonderful! How lucky to have seen the robin! We have an abundance of sparrows, crows, mockingbirds, and a hawk or two that show themselves. They are all enjoying the spring weather I think!

Back to the regular Welsh drizzle today & rain came in through my bathroom ceiling last night, so feeling a bit sorry for myself <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I think it's time to emigrate! I fancy a place where you risk sunburn in March <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Oh good heavens Lauren! Rain coming through the bathroom ceiling does not sound good at all!

You are certainly welcome here in southern California. March, while not usually known for sunburns, is certainly a splendid time to visit Disneyland <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
