Yes, Spring is here. March 20th. 2021, marks the vernal “Spring” Equinox.
For many it is the time to pay their respects to the earth, the sun and all it supports. Castlerigg Stone Circle is one of many places where, not just those of the Druid Faith, but those who just love, respect and have a care for our environment, visit on this special day.
This megalithic Stone Circle, high above Keswick in Cumbria, sitting in the shadows of Blencathra and Helvellyn, has over all the centuries been a place of special significance, especially at the two Equinox’s and the two Solstices. Many believe that the positioning of these stones was deliberate, and do align with stars and sun.
Visit Castlerigg, no matter your believes and I am pretty sure you will find it a special place… at anytime in the seasonal clock.
Whatever you are doing this ‘First’ day of Spring….
Please Remember to ….
Stay Safe …. Be Kind…. Look After Each Other
20th March
