Renewal, rebirth, tool sharpening.

Spring ushers in important observances by most cultures and religions.

Nearly everyone–Pagans, atheists, druids, Scots, Picts, regular people, animals, your oddest relatives, city people, and the most pale indoor white collars you know–notice the natural world more. Even plain honest fleshy folk we grew up with in the American Midwest: they do a move, a dance, a jig, or an inspired stylish waddle to celebrate.

It’s only primal. We all refuse to ignore rebirth, renewal, new life cycles, being here now–and the possibilities of bold fresh starts.
