Urban Shaman Donna Henes' 39th Annual Eggs on End: Vernal Equinox Celebration in Bowling Green Park in New York welcoming in the first day of spring on Thursday, March 20, 2014. At the precise moment of the Spring Equinox, this year at 12:57 PM, a raw egg can be stood on its end bringing good luck for the rest of the year and dozens of participants were glad to see winter go at the ceremony. Henes has been organizing this event for 39 years. Participants reach for their eggs. (© Richard B. Levine)
