Autumnal Equinox

Can you feel the changing location of the sun in our skies? Is there a snap or chill in the air (Northern States)? Do you feel a pull to travel to the goes within place? The Autumnal Equinox is fast upon us as the Sun enters Libra at 5:05 AM EST. The balancing for a brief while of light and dark offers a moment of for us to pause to reflect, a sense of being out of time briefly as Grandmother Earth takes a great inhale. This is a time for celebration of the Summer's harvest ...a time to reflect on the bounty of your hard work, give thanks for the blessings that you have, and make preparations for the coming winter months. As the light and dark is balanced, may the light and dark within you be also balanced.

I adapted the words from a beautiful poem from an Autumn Ritual that reflects the Beauty of this Season:

I have a light in the darkness
A light for the coming days
I have a light to follow
I find joy in all I do
I bring joy to all I love
Joy will flow in my life
In the North the winds will be gentle
In the West the days end will cradle me
In the South the warmth be with me
In the East the Sun will shine on me
The Power of Life Reverberates within me!
