Autumnal Equinox 2019
The autumnal equinox ranges from the 21st to the 24th. This year it occurs on September 23. Although there is some debate about the exact date, an equinox is about balance…12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. It is a time of releasing burdens, ‘letting go’ of what no longer serves us, hurts or restricts us. Finding our balance is finding solid ground upon which we can stand.
“At no other time does the earth itself let itself be inhaled in one smell, the ripe earth; in a smell of the sea, bitter where it borders on taste, and more honey sweet where you feel it touching the first sounds, containing depth within itself, darkness, something of the grave almost.” ~Rainer Marie Rilke
Equinox blessings!
