This
 maiden is Lava, Slavic goddess of spring, beauty, love and fertility.  
With the arrival of the vernal equinox, she was said to return to the 
earth from the underworld each year, bringing spring with her.  An 
appropriate card to draw, as tomorrow marks the equinox here in the 
northern hemisphere.  The birch branch she carries reminds me to sweep 
out what is useless, and look with fresh, clear eyes.  This image, with 
its flowers, green grass and animals, encourages me to open my mind to 
new ideas.  As the equinox is a time when day and night are equal, it is
 a nudge for me to adjust what is out of balance in my life.  Here in 
the South, the azaleas and dogwoods are in full bloom, as if nature is 
having a celebration.  Perfect timing, as today is my 23rd wedding 
anniversary.

Each
 day is filled with potential and possibilities, but my attitude and 
mindset can ignore them all.  "I don't have time.  I don't know how.  I 
don't want the responsibility."  This card persuades me not to miss 
chances I might regret later.  You just never know what may sprout from 
the seed that is planted.
