Today we experience equal parts day and night.
It is a balance point. A pause if you will. We so often strive for balance in our lives, our inner pendulum swinging between action and rest, work and home, self care and tending to others needs. Balance is not something we live in. Instead we are always playing with and seeking balance. We find ourselves balanced for a moment here or there. A day, a week, a month. But inevitably we find our pendulum swinging once more. Nature does this too. These points of perfect balance come at the equinoxes, during the first and last quarter moons and those halfway points between seasons. There are moments where nature’s pendulum swings too. Full and New moons, the Solstices and the pivoting moment when a season changes. I invite you on this day to play with balance. Explore the following questions. What does balance mean to me? Where does my inner pendulum tend to swing? When I feel into the energy of balance, where do I long for this in my life? Are there action steps I can take to bring my inner pendulum a little closer to my center. The equinox is also the second harvest festival. This is a time for gratitude for all we are harvesting, have harvested and will harvest. Ask yourself, what am I grateful for? Who am I grateful for? And if there are people in your life you are feeling grateful for, let them know. The more we share our gratitude the more it grows. Blessed Autumn, the Season of the Witch has officially arrived.
