Hey witches! As nature awakens from its winter slumber and the days begin to lengthen, we come to Ostara, the spring equinox, a time of balance, renewal, and fertility.

Ostara, also known as the Spring Equinox or Eostre, is a pagan holiday celebrated around March 20th in the Northern Hemisphere (September 20th in the Southern Hemisphere). It marks the arrival of spring and the balance between light and darkness as day and night are of equal length.

The holiday is named after the Germanic goddess Ostara, who represents fertility, renewal, and the dawn. Many customs and symbols associated with Ostara are rooted in ancient pagan traditions and folklore. Some key aspects of Ostara celebrations include:

Celebrating the Equinox: Ostara marks the arrival of spring and the rebirth of life in the natural world. It's a time to celebrate the earth's renewal, the return of longer days, and the promise of new beginnings. Here are some ways to honor Ostara and celebrate the beauty and bounty of the season:

🌱 Planting Seeds:

Get your hands dirty and plant seeds in your garden or indoor pots to symbolize growth, abundance, and new life.

🥚 Decorating Eggs:

Embrace the ancient tradition of decorating eggs, a symbol of fertility and rebirth. Paint, dye, or decorate eggs with symbols and colors that represent the themes of spring and renewal.

🌸 Nature Walks:

Take a walk in nature and immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and scents of spring. Notice the blooming flowers, budding trees, and chirping birds as you connect with the energy of the season.

🕯️ Rituals and Ceremonies:

Hold a ritual or ceremony to honor the equinox and invoke blessings for balance, harmony, and renewal in your life. Light candles, burn incense, and offer prayers or invocations to the goddess Ostara and the spirits of spring.

🍃 Feasting and Sharing:

Gather with loved ones for a festive meal or potluck to celebrate the abundance of the season. Cook and share dishes made with seasonal ingredients such as fresh greens, herbs, and spring vegetables.

Here are some ideas for recipes for Ostara:

Hot Cross Buns (Cross Quarter Buns): These tasty pastries are often enjoyed during the pre-Easter season of Lent. The decorative cross on top represents a Christian symbol, but you can infuse your own Pagan beliefs into it. Consider associating the four quarters of the cross with elements, directions, moon phases, seasons, Tarot suits, or fire festivals. To make your own, start with your favorite muffin or roll recipe and create an X on top using raisins, currants, or scored dough. Mint Chutney: Mint chutney is a versatile condiment that pairs well with various dishes. Keep in mind that the term “chutney” covers a wide range of culinary options. Roasted Lamb: For many ancestors, lamb was a symbol of spring and rebirth. Roasted lamb can be a delicious centerpiece for your Ostara feast. Dairy Products: Dairy is associated with fertility and new life. Include cheese, milk, cream, butter, and other dairy items in your Ostara meals. Eggs: Eggs symbolize new beginnings and potential. Hard-boiled eggs, deviled eggs, or egg salad are great choices. Spring Greens and Fresh Herbs: Celebrate the awakening of nature by incorporating fresh greens like spinach, kale, and spring onions. Use herbs like parsley, chives, and dill to add flavor and vibrancy to your dishes. Seasonal Crops: Asparagus and fiddlehead ferns are early spring crops that align perfectly with Ostara. Check in your area what is available! Marshmallow Peeps: While not traditional in ancient practices, these colorful marshmallow treats have become an iconic part of modern Ostara celebrations

Embrace the Magic of Ostara: Whether you're planting seeds, decorating eggs, or simply basking in the beauty of nature, Ostara offers a magical opportunity to connect with the energy of spring and celebrate the renewal and rebirth of life. So gather your friends, set your intentions, and let the magic of Ostara guide you on your journey into the light! 🌼🌿

Spring is a time of rebirth and growth. Consider working magic related to these themes.

Explore magical aspects of:

Serpents: Symbolism and folklore. Eggs: Associated with new life. Spring Flowers: Use blooming flowers in your magical workings. Daffodils: Early bloomers with magical purposes. Rabbits: Beyond the Easter Bunny. Magical Gardening: Growing plants as a magical act.

Remember, Ostara is a time to celebrate the return of light, growth, and the promise of warmer days ahead. 🌸🌼🌞

Two New Kits Coming to The Sims 4 April 20th

The Sims just announced that the Greenhouse Haven & Basement Treasures Kits will be released this week!

[ Original Post ]

A Plant Playhouse for Any Gardening Lover

The Sims 4 Greenhouse Haven Kit provides a Sim with a serene retreat from the hustle and bustle of the busy world. Sims can create a peaceful and serene greenhouse in their home with lively and versatile gardening decor.

From weaving their way through a cluttered greenhouse, to relaxing alone amongst the foliage, The Sims 4 Greenhouse Haven Kit has something for every Sim with or without a green thumb in this new, dedicated gardening space

Sims can design the greenhouse of their dreams with beautiful glass pane windows and doors that fit together seamlessly. In the gardening house, Sims can decorate their space with a plethora of gardening objects, including starter seedlings, stacks of pots, a planting table, hanging flower baskets and more.

Find Your Comfort In the Passed Down and Well Loved

The Sims 4 Basement Treasures Kit encourages Sims to create the classic hand-me-down basement room, challenging Sims to deviate from the pristine and embrace the imperfect with grungy and aged decor. From Grandma’s old, worn furniture to thrifting finds, every piece has a story and potential for new life.

Sims can return home and relax in their favorite spot on worn, torn and well loved chairs or couches from the past. Life is for living - and Sims can walk down memory lane with a milk crate of vinyl records, old trophies and family photos, worn trunks and more.

From stains to soils and everyday wear and tear, there is comfort in the flawed, passed down and lived in. Items like an older model TV (still functional but not in its prime) and dusty trinkets add to the grungy space, with these lived-in items creating a comfortable basement.

Sophie profiles night-flowering plants to prove gardens can be enjoyed by early-birds and night-owls.

Under the harsh midday sun, it's easy to think gardening is purely a daytime activity, but plants don't put down tools when we do. With careful planning it's easy to bring your garden to life at night, adding extra dimensions for nocturnal pollinators. Sophie shows us that gardens can be enjoyed day in and day out.

Night Flowering Plants

Plants pollinated by butterflies and bees are at their brightest and most fragrant during the day, because that’s when their pollinators are most active. But not all plants are pollinated by bees and butterflies. Some plants are pollinated by nocturnal creatures like moths, bats and beetles, so these plants need to look and smell their best in the dark.

For pollinators that can't see well in the dark, they can be attracted by fragrance. Night-scented plants respond to the temperature drop in the evening. It triggers a chemical change in the petals where the volatile compounds become highly concentrated, and therefore more fragrant.

Some plants don't put on perfume but do respond to the fading of the light. In the plant world, it's called the nyctinastic rhythm, which is a bit like a circadian rhythm for plants. Typically, night flowering plants have white flowers because they have the best chance of reflecting light at night.

Madagascar Jasmine | Stephanotis floribunda *

This evergreen climber produces bunches of perfumed, white flowers over glossy, green foliage. It’s traditionally used in wedding bouquets and is reputed to have the best perfume of any climber. It's cold and frost tender and does best in a protected position next to a wall for radiant heat. In frosty areas, keep it undercover in a polyhouse or indoors. Stephanotis is related to Hoya and is non-toxic to pets so it can be a valuable addition to your indoor collection.

Chilean Jasmine | Mandevilla Iaxa *

This woody-stemmed climber has exquisite flowers with a sweet-vanilla scent that is most prominent in the evenings. Unlike other Mandevilla, which are sub-tropical plants, this one is cold and frost tolerant, even in the Adelaide Hills. The fresh, green leaves are deciduous in colder climates, but it will be semi-evergreen in milder climates.

Chinese Star Jasmine | Trachelospermum jasminoides *

This climber certainly packs a fragrant punch with its small star-shaped flowers, hence its name. Sophie’s grows this together with the Chilean Jasmine over the front doorway, and they are both members of the frangipani family. Star Jasmine are very versatile and can be grown over a topiary frame, on a trellis, as a ground cover, or even indoors if it has access to enough light.

New Guinea Bean | Lagenaria siceraria

It's not just ornamentals that are in the night scene. The New Guinea bean is in the bottle gourd family and produce long fruits with white flesh, and a flavour between zucchini and cucumber. Their white flowers open at night and emit a sweet fragrance to attract their nighttime pollinator, the hawk moth. This plant not only looks and smells good - it tastes good, too.

Cape Jasmine | Gardenia jasminoides ‘Florida’ *

Gardenias love acidic soils. This cultivar has beautifully scented semi-double blooms that appear in warmer months. Plant this in the centre of the pot to enjoy its height.

Star Jasmine | Trachelospermum asiaticum ‘Flat Mat’ *

This groundcover is perfect for a pot and can be planted towards the front, so it trails over the sides. It has dark green foliage and a crisp white star-shaped flower with a heavenly perfume.

Sweet Alice | Lobularia maritima

Perfect for edges, borders and trailing over pots, Alyssum or Sweet Alice gets its name for its wonderful fragrance. This plant is an annual though should self-seed in its pot.

* While Stephanotis, Mandevilla, Trachelospermum and Gardenia have "jasmine" as a common name; a "true" jasmine is from the genus Jasminum. Most Jasminum species are considered an environmental weed in Australia, so plant these instead to enjoy their impeccable beauty and scent, responsibly.

Begonias in the Fall: A Burst of Color for the Cooler Months

As the vibrant summer flowers begin to fade, begonias step into the spotlight, offering a fresh wave of color and texture to autumn gardens. Known for their stunning blooms and striking foliage, begonias thrive in the cooler months, bringing a unique charm to fall landscapes. Whether nestled in containers or spread across garden beds, they prove to be versatile companions for those looking to extend the beauty of their outdoor spaces.

Begonias are not only loved for their radiant hues but also for their adaptability. These plants flourish in partially shaded areas, making them ideal for the shorter, cooler days of fall. Their ability to thrive in different conditions, from garden beds to indoor pots, makes them a favorite among gardeners who seek both ease and elegance.

One of the key advantages of begonias in the fall is their remarkable ability to withstand cooler temperatures without losing their vibrancy. While some fall plants may wilt or fade with early frost, begonias remain resilient. This makes them perfect for regions where the transition to winter is gradual, allowing gardeners to enjoy their stunning blooms longer into the season.

As autumn settles in, begonias can effortlessly bridge the gap between the fading summer blooms and the winter dormancy. Their resilience, combined with their vibrant colors, ensures that your garden remains alive with beauty well into the season. So, this fall, let begonias add a final burst of brilliance before winter’s quiet embrace takes over.

Beginner's Guide to Starting Your Vegetable Garden

Starting a vegetable garden can be one of the most rewarding activities for anyone interested in fresh, homegrown produce. Whether you have a spacious backyard or just a tiny balcony, growing your vegetables is both fun and sustainable. Here's a beginner-friendly guide to help you get started on your vegetable gardening journey.

Choosing the Right Location for Your Garden

The first step in creating a successful vegetable garden is picking the correct location. Vegetables thrive in areas that receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. Therefore, it's essential to choose a sunny spot. If you're working with limited space, container gardening or raised beds can be just as effective as a large plot in your yard.

In addition to sunlight, consider the soil quality. Good garden soil should drain well while also retaining moisture. If the soil is heavy clay or too sandy, it may need amendments such as compost or organic matter to improve its structure.

Deciding What to Grow

As a beginner, it's essential to start small. Choose a few easy-to-grow vegetables that you and your family enjoy eating. Some ideal options for beginners include:

Tomatoes: A versatile and productive choice.

Lettuce: Proliferates and can be harvested over several weeks.

Carrots: Great for loose soil and ideal for containers.

Peppers: Relatively easy to grow in warm climates.

Zucchini: A fast-growing and productive vegetable.

Consider your climate and growing season. Warm-season vegetables like tomatoes and peppers thrive in summer, while cool-season crops like lettuce and spinach prefer spring or fall. Research which vegetables are best suited for your region's climate and start with those.

Preparing Your Garden Bed

Once you've chosen your vegetables, it's time to prepare the garden bed. If you're using containers or raised beds, fill them with a high-quality, well-draining potting mix. For traditional garden plots, start by loosening the soil to a depth of 12-18 inches.

Remove any weeds, rocks, or debris from the planting area. If your soil quality is poor, consider adding compost or other organic matter to improve its fertility. This will provide your vegetables with the nutrients they need to grow strong and healthy.

Planting Your Vegetables

After preparing the soil, it's time to plant your vegetables. Follow the seed packet or plant tag instructions for spacing and depth. Different vegetables have varying space requirements, so pay attention to how much room they need to grow.

If you're planting seeds, make sure they're spaced evenly and lightly covered with soil. Water them gently but thoroughly after planting. For seedlings, dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball and place the plant in it, covering the roots with soil and gently pressing down to remove air pockets.

Watering and Mulching

Proper watering is critical to the success of any vegetable garden. Most vegetables need about 1 inch of water per week, but this can vary depending on your climate and soil type. Water deeply and infrequently rather than giving shallow, frequent watering sessions. This encourages the roots to grow deeper, making plants more drought-resistant.

Adding a layer of mulch around your plants helps retain soil moisture, reduces weeds, and improves the overall health of the soil. Organic mulches such as straw, grass clippings, or shredded leaves are ideal for vegetable gardens.

Managing Pests and Diseases

One of the challenges of vegetable gardening is dealing with pests and diseases. To reduce the likelihood of problems, consider using natural pest control methods like companion planting, which involves planting certain crops near each other to deter pests. For example, marigolds can repel aphids, while basil can improve the growth of tomatoes.

Keep an eye on your garden for any signs of pests or disease. Early detection is critical to preventing the spread of these issues. Handpick insects when possible, and use organic insecticides only if necessary. Regularly rotating crops also helps minimize disease buildup in the soil.

Harvesting Your Vegetables

The most exciting part of vegetable gardening is, of course, harvesting the fruits (or vegetables) of your labor. Harvesting times will vary depending on the crops you've planted. Root vegetables like carrots and radishes can be harvested when they reach the desired size. Leafy greens like spinach and lettuce can be picked as soon as the leaves are large enough to eat. For vegetables like tomatoes and peppers, wait until they are fully ripe for the best flavor.

Harvest regularly to encourage continued production, especially for crops like zucchini or beans, which produce heavily. Enjoy your fresh vegetables right away, or preserve them by freezing, canning, or drying them throughout the year.

Starting a vegetable garden is a rewarding and educational experience. With careful planning, attention to your plants, and a little bit of patience, you'll be enjoying fresh, homegrown produce in no time. Whether you have a small balcony or a big backyard, gardening can bring a sense of accomplishment and a deeply fulfilling connection to nature.

I've finally put the balcony in order! There was a fun extra week of winter at the end of May that delayed the final purchases, but I've now covered all the basics.

Got a decent amount of herbs including an unplanned curry plant because putting them next to rosemary in the nursery is plain unfair to easily distracted people. Three geraniums including a hanging one there on top of the cat perch (I have given up, that box is just the cat perch now). The early spring pansies and carnations are still going strong, while only one of the petunias is in full bloom already. My beloved Sky varietals are delayed as usual. The African daisy needed a prop stick, it's so tall already!

Lost the ivy to a very cold spell in winter (and/or neglect during surgery recovery) and one juniper to the cats. The other two junipers and the Virginia creeper are going strong and enjoying the early spring though, had to discourage the creeper from creeping over to the upstairs neighbours!

Last year was... well, it was last year, which I usually sum up as "Four funerals and a wedding plus losing a major organ after half a year of worrying it's cancer". A minor garden this year but I'm hoping to keep it going during my summer absence and into the first frost. Gonna try overwintering the geraniums too, there's room for them enough indoors.

(Indoors is slightly sparser without most of my mother's plants, though I still need her to take at least one overlarge ficus, I don't need three. Got two new potted hydrangeas though, they remain utter disasters who need So Much Water.)

Balcony fencing remains the best cat proofing method because versatility and durability. One set of fairy lights expired over the winter, so I got a replacement and a table lamp for evening reading. The recent availability of cheap good exterior lights remains a wonder.

ϟ minseo loves baking, absolutely loves it. she will bake in excess, every time, to always make sure there is more than enough to go around for everyone! her favorite treat to make is croissants, because she loves how versatile they are and how fun it is to roll them into shapes.  ϟ she is almost never seen without her signature, rose earrings — a gift from her mother when she was a child, and a piece of her she will never let go of.  ϟ minseo doesn’t work because she has to, her parents left her an inheritance that would leave her comfortable for the rest of her life, but she works because she is trying to put herself out there and meet as many people as she can. if she didn’t work, she likely would spend a lot more time at home than she should. ϟ minseo hasn’t told anyone about being a sailor scout, let alone about the powers she worked on when no one was watching… and she wonders if any of the other scouts have made their way to evermore, though she figures if they had, they’re doing the same as her; hiding.  ϟ minseo knows the plane crash that killed her parents was a freak accident… but she can’t help jumping when she hears one flying overhead. thankfully, evermore doesn’t have an airport… and since she can’t leave, she doesn’t have to worry about flying anywhere. ϟ her plants are her babies; the loves of her literal life. her entire apartment is covered in them; they hand from the ceiling, their vines dangle from cabinets, she has the most intricate and fun-colored pots. gardening is a comfort for her, and the air in her apartment?? so clean. so nice to breathe in.  ϟ being a sailor scout  is one of the greatest honors, and minseo takes it INCREDIBLY seriously. she knows everything about her planet, and spends almost all of her free time (you know, when she isnt tending to her plants or baking out her ass) working on her skills. ϟ minseo is, alas, a hopeless romantic and a serial crusher. if kwon isn’t crushing, she’s dead, because even when she gets married (her ultimate dream, by the way)... she’ll still be crushing on her husband, and on celebrities, and on cute boys she sees on tiktok, and on random men who come into the cafe and smile when she gives them her change. kwon is a lover, and okay, she is a little boy crazy. OKAAAY, insanely boy crazy. ϟ minseo has recently realized she’s like… insanely good at figure skating. so, another hobby of hers is spending time at the frozen one ice rink and working on skills she has no business trying on her own. she hasn’t broken any bones… yet.
