Spring Equinox

 

Spring Equinox is the time of year when lightness and darkness are in equilibrium. Equinox means "equal night," and anywhere on the Earth, given a level horizon, the Sun rises due East, and sets due West. Equal day and night. Then the balance tips and light dominates the days. As the days become brighter and warmer, new life emerges, birds sing and we all wake from the gloomy spell of winter - spring is here!

With this movement and re-awakening from hibernation we naturally want to stretch, to reach out, to sense what we want for ourselves from the abundance of the coming year.  This feeling is a joy to establish in our lives, the feeling of the new energy within nature and the world. Every one of us has felt this since childhood directly or though the natural world around us, we will each have our own memories of it. Equinox is a time to consciously re-connect with it, to meditate in search for a sense of renewal and direction, to heal the heart and soul after the darkness of short days, to allow ourselves to blossom and grow stronger for the forthcoming year. Take this time to spring clean the mind, get rid of winter- blues and unwanted past influences, to concentrate on new plans. As those seeds planted when the autumn leaves turned and lay dormant through winter are now visible above the surface of the Earth so the ideas we’ve been nurturing over the winter become manifest to others. Celebrate them in this new phase of life.
