I love all the sabbats but some are a bit more low-key than others. Ostara has always been like this for me though I usually do a nice Ostara/Easter altar. For a few years we weren’t sure whether to celebrate Ostara or Easter but now we kind have rolled them into one. I still do my ritual on ostara but we have our feast on Easter. It seems to make the non-pagans in the family pretty happy.
For Ostara (which was March 21st, this past Sunday) I had lunch with my brother and his wife here at the house while I burned some pretty candles he had made for me specifically for the holiday. They were blue and pink pillars that I anointed with Ostara oil (that I made myself last Ostara) and I did a small ritual that made use of seeds which we then cast to the winds. Almost as if on cue we had a rainstorm. It was lovely.
