More or less halfway between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox- I've recently learned more about the calculation of Cross-quarter Days, and it's not that straightforward! There are traditional dates, often rationalised to fall at the beginning or end of months, or meshed with Christian dates, and then there are the actual solar dates- not so simple as so many days before or after solstice/equinox... Anyway, for me a general idea of mid-way works well enough- I'll make my natural observations over a number of days, anyway, and if I have time and energy for ritual, it will depend on days off work and weather! So, Happy Waiting for Spring for all of in still cold places, for those of you actually seeing spring, Happier still!
