Embracing Change with Equinox Energy
Summer is slowly coming to an end, and Autumn will soon embrace us. Wherever you are this Autumn, on Saturday September 22 is the Autumn Equinox.
As we step into a new season, the upcoming equinox brings with it a powerful reminder of change and balance that exists in the natural world. It’s a time of transition, renewal and embracing change.
Navigating Change: Lessons from Nature
Nature has a wonderful way of teaching us about change and adaptability. Just as the Autumn leaves transform, we too can learn to gracefully accept the changes that life presents us. The Earth doesn’t resist the changing of the seasons! She welcomes all the phases of life.
The equinox is a gentle reminder that change is a natural part of existence and that by embracing it, we can find new opportunities for growth and transformation.
The Equinoxes are about “balance.” The autumn equinox corresponds with the astrological sign of Libra. The symbol for Libra is the scale which is associated with …you guessed it……balance.
How do we achieve balance in times of stress? A vital question, as we gear up to 2025!
We can follow the example of the Earth . . .
The Joy of Surrender
It’s natural for humans to try to hold on, but limitation and death are lovely players in this cosmic orchestra. This may seem counterintuitive. But imagine a world where no one and nothing dies. Overcrowding is one thing, but what would we eat? What solace awaits those suffering from injury or chronic pain? It would not create such a lovely world.
For some, surrender is a dirty word, in a domination culture. It reeks of passivity, of victimhood, of failure. We don’t like to contemplate surrender. We like to force victory!
Our resistance doesn’t stop the flow and ebb that happens in every aspect of life, it
only bogs us down. And if we can let go of our resistance, the cycle of life will carry us effortlessly forward. Here are a few suggestions to carry you mindfully into the new season.
REFLECT: Take some time to deeply reflect on the past months. What have you accomplished? What lessons have you learned? What do you want to let go of?
LEARN ABOUT THE WISDOM OF TREES: and their symbolism. Trees have deep symbolism in many cultures. Explore the wisdom of trees and how their growth, shedding of leaves and resilience can inspire our own journeys.
THE POWER OF SOUND HEALING: Delve into the healing properties of sound, such as singing bowls, chanting, and sound baths.
MEDITATIVE NATURE WALKS: Select a natural setting that resonates with you…any place with minimal human disturbances. Use all your senses to connect with your surroundings. Notice the colors, shapes, and patterns in the environment. Listen to the sounds of nature Find a Labyrinth: Use search engines, social media, and online maps to find labyrinths near your home.
Live Miraculously!
