Goddess Ostara

Now, I don’t need to tell you how bad these lasts couple of years have been. We’ve been hit by a plague that not only took lives, but jobs, careers, and businesses. For the first time in my life-time whole cities were shut down in effort to save lives and restore balance. Many of us have had a difficult time manifesting. Some of us, have had a major string of bad luck. We just can’t seem to catch a break. In this video, I am going to explain why we go through entire bouts of bad luck. And how we can change our fates and future by reaching out to the beautiful goddess of Easter, Ostara.





Who is the goddess of spring?



Ostara played by Kristin Chenoweth was most recently featured on American Gods Season one, episode eight. In it, she is bubbling, bursting with light and joy, and quite content with her arrangement that she has with the New Gods. You see Ostara made the same deal as Old Saint Nick. Both Easter and Christmas would be major Christian holidays. But pagan rituals such as Santa Clause’s Christmas tree, and the Easter bunny’s-colored eggs would still be observed. This allowed the Old Gods to siphon energy from the one and true god, Jesus Christ. But after just one encounter with the old god of war, Odin, Ostara decides that she’s not happy with her new arrangement. In fact, she feels misrepresented in the media. Afterall, her worshippers had taken her for granted. They failed to pray to her. They failed to make proper sacrifices. And most importantly, they failed to understand the purpose of rebirth, sacrifice, and balance.

Ostara is traditionally known as the goddess of fertility. And she was often summoned during the spring and vernal equinox to bring about a strong and fruitful harvest. However, with the manufacturing of farming and agriculture, there isn’t much of a need for an Ostara pagan festival, or the need to worship and pray to Ostara for that matter. Now, if we’re hungry we jump into a forty-thousand-dollar cars and head out to the grocery store. However, long ago, finding food was very difficult. In fact, our ancestors were literally starving while hunting. And sometimes it would take them days even weeks to land a good meal. Many of them died in the process, and those who did, were offered up to the gods for their sacrifices. Crops and livestock were just as difficult to maintain. Droughts and cold weather made vegetables and fruits difficult to grow, and chicken coups and pigsty were often raided by foxes and wolves.



The history of the goddess of Ostara



Today, we don’t have a problem with food. In fact, it’s safe to say that we probably have too much of it. Only today, we have a different problem, money. Money, much like food is eaten way by creditors, bill collectors, and children who constantly need new clothes and shoes. We suffer from demotions and job losses that can put us into a real financial drought. And we are constantly marauded by the wolves that are also our business competitors. In many cases, we’re doing just as badly as our ancestors did. We’re not starving for food, but we’re starving for money. And we all know the kind of stress that we endure when money is tight. Poverty simply isn’t good for our mental health or state of mind. Yet, as the years progress, it seems that more and more of us are slipping into the depths of destitution.



Understanding the goddess of fertility and easter



Now, I go on a major bitch rant in other videos about manifesting and abundance. While there are others who simply believe that manifesting is all about belief. I believe that manifesting is all about energy, or chi, or ashé, or power source. And many of us simply cannot manifest because we don’t have enough energy. In many cases, we don’t know how to tap into this energy, and in others, we fail to make the proper sacrifices to attain this energy.





Did the Aztecs sacrifice humans?



And this is the piece of the puzzle that many of those manifesting and law of attraction gurus get wrong. Manifesting is all about sacrifice. And the more you wish to manifest, the greater the sacrifices you must make. Our ancestors knew this, that’s why they had cruel and even inhuman practices of sacrifices by today’s standards. In fact, it wasn’t unusual from them to throw people into fiery hot pits of lava. In the Aztecs culture, people would often volunteer to be sacrificed. Afterall, it was an honor to have their corpse grounded and then stirred up into soup or dinner dish. I know, all of this sounds odds to us, and fortunately, we don’t need to kill and eat others to make our sacrifice.





Human sacrifices are necessary



We can make our sacrifice by simply letting go of the things that no longer serve us. We can make our sacrifice by letting go of toxic people, a dead-end drama infested job, or even a bad habit that is stunting our growth. I talk about nature’s balance in many of my other videos. If there is too much negative energy, then nature will whip up some natural form of disaster to destroy those negative elements. Sadly, since many of us are removed from nature, we have intrinsically forgotten how to purge our souls, bodies, and minds, from negativity. As a result, degradation sets in. And we spiral down into a rut of apathy and self-destruction.



Making sacrifices on the Vernal Equinox



In this state, you won’t be able to manifest much of anything. Or worse, you’ll manifest all of your pent of fears and the horrors of your subconscious thoughts. And then, you’ll give up, thinking that none of this stuff works. When in truth, the magick didn’t work, because you didn’t do it right. The first thing that you have to do is make a sacrifice, a real sacrifice. Now, intrinsically, you know what that is. It’s something that you’re afraid of walking away from, or someone you don’t want to let go. It’s a bad habit that has been eating you up alive and stunting your growth. Then, you can work to recalibrate by reaching out to the goddess Ostara. You can do this on the vernal equinox, the day of balance, where there is just as much light as dark. And lastly, start to think about the world that you want to create. Think about the joy, the happiness, the prosperity and good health, and most importantly, think about sacrifices that you will make and continue to make on your journey to manifesting.



What do you guys think? Do you think that we’re so detached from nature that we’ve forgotten about the importance of sacrifices? Do you think that manifesting is about belief and not energy?
