Spring at Paradise Flowers Tampa, Fl
We are in Spring 2012 this should be an interesting year because of the Mayan Prophecy.
The hint is in the name given to this time of year; Easter. It comes from the Teutonic Goddess named Eastre or Eostre. She was the spring Goddess, and symbolized renewal and fertility. Her followers were reliant on food crops springing from the dormant ground each year. A translation of Eastre gives us “radiant dawn” and that is exactly what spring was to those who had suffered through a long winter.
Death and rebirth are common themes in mythology, with the old needing to die so that fertile new grounds could be prepared. Not only is this an analogy for crops, but also for spiritual growth and the physiology of the body.
Resurrection is represented many times over with themes in shamanic death and rebirth, the journey of the Fool in tarot, and ultimately in enlightenment. According to Gnostic schools of thought, the Christ myth is one of spiritual death and rebirth resulting in enlightenment, and not about a physical death and physical resurrection. This is one reason that the resurrection of Christ is tied to a pagan spring calendar, as it symbolizes new life and new awareness.
