That was just a superstition, now the only reason we have it is out of tradition, but I doubt anybody really takes it seriously nowadays.

~"GroundHog Day" was originally Imbolc, a celebration to encourage the Light to come back. Lots of candles involved, it was later Christianized and called Candlemas. The first day of Spring is on the vernal equinox, March 21st in the Northern hemisphere and September 22nd in the Southern hemisphere-- and reversed of course for the first day of Fall. It's the same all over, you guys. Summer Solstice in the North is Winter Solstice in the Southern hemisphere. Same days, just the opposite season. We're all on the same planet, kids....

Now you know why GreenWillow is the mythical and all-knowing fairy that she is. What would we do without her?
