Celebrate With Us
Panthers' Gate community is honored to host a TWO day Conference in honor of the Spring Equinox and the Celtic Goddess of Fertility and Growth.
Ostara, the German Goddess of Spring and Dawn, honors the renewal and rebirth of Mother Earth and spirits alike. The Celtic Tale of Ostara speaks of a very special party that honored the beautiful goddess. All the animals in the Kingdom were excited to shower her with gifts!
The Hare, a totem animal symbolic of immortality and abundance, looked everywhere for a gift but could only find his last egg. When offering his only egg to Ostara, she blessed the Hare as a very special animal because he had given everything he had to her.

Why We Celebrate Imbolc
Imbolc is the mid-point between Yule and Ostara, and one of the three Fire Festivals. It is a celebration of beginnings, community, and coming out of hibernation after the deep of winter! Being that we are a root school, we honor this festival to further the tradition of the first seed, the first egg, the first blossom of fertility, where Imbolc represents the setting forth of promises renewed.
We wish to inspire hope for the spring's energy, to help all who gather here to feel empowered throughout the year of 2023 and to look forward to the brighter and warmer days ahead.
