New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| It is the first blush of spring. The pussy willows press forth their furry heads expectantly and epimedium push their delicate fairy petals up from the dark, black dirt. Winter's edge begins to fade as wondrous new life emerges. The belly of the Goddess is swollen with the God's seed as the ripening rhythm of spring calls forth her babe. Across the land the fairies gather in preparation, collecting blessings and well wishes for these new arrivals. A child is born! Cast your wish for the little prince or princess with this simple baby blessing. To ensure the baby's wisdom and joy plant an iris bulb in a clay pot. With a silver marker, write your wish around the outside of the pot, wrapping your words in a spiral around the bulb to energize your blessing. Gift the new parents with this offering tucked in a box with sprigs of arborvitae considered to be the "Tree of Life."
