GODDESS CALENDAR MARCH 2024
Make Spring Equinox your Happy Goddess New Year! Choose a project for Women’s Herstory month and share your findings. Celebrate Juno Lucina and the women in your life for Matronalia with little cards and presents to tell them how special they are. Honor International Women’s Day by working to inspire inclusion. How can you celebrate the women in your life and raise awareness? Soothe the angry beast of Sekhmet with an offering of beer mixed with pomegranate juice! (She also likes dark chocolate!) Track the planet Venus in your astrology chart and welcome the influence of Astarte. Tie a strand of your hair to a cherry blossom tree to find love. Take a blessing to your favorite water source for World Water Day and the Water Goddesses. Give an offering of pink cupcakes for Lakshmi’s birthday. Chant Om Mani Padme Hum for Kuan Yin 108 times for her birthday. Luna is calling you to moonbathe on her Feast Day! What does the radiant Moon Mother tell you?
