We are 29 days past the vernal equinox. The moon is just past full at 99.2% and waning.
Some of us are observing Ramadan, some of us are observing Passover’s third day, and some of us are celebrating Easter today. Orthodox Christians will celebrate Easter a week from today.
My household is secular lapsed Catholic; my adult children will be here to observe the holiday. It’ll be the second holiday we’ve been able to spend together since the pandemic began. It’s the first time I can think of when there hasn’t been a single candy Easter egg in this house.
It’s just as well there are no extra calories here because we’re going to indulge our omnivore natures and gorge on standing rib roast with apple pie for dessert.
Whatever benchmark or holiday you observe, with family or by yourself, feel free to shout out here in this open thread.
Wishing the rest of your spring season warmer, lighter, safe, and restorative.
