So Spring is officially here! With the 20th March marking the Spring Equinox, the time when the hours of daylight and dark are equally balanced. Overall marking a time of Balance and Wholeness.
It’s time to welcome in all the new energy and transformations you desire for the year ahead.
This is a time that, until the eighteenth century, was considered by many parts of Europe to mark the start of the new astrological year. When even way back when, people would perform rituals to cleanse out old energy in both themselves and in their homes.
At a deeper spiritual level the equinox is thought to represent:
“the period of struggle between darkness and light, death and life. It occurs when the night and day will be equal, and the journey of the Sun to actually get there also signifies the journey of the Universe.
The importance of the spring season is that the daylight will start increasing, so we will experience more light such as illuminating, reminding us that the light will always return to earth. Hence, this equinox is the representation of new life and light, new beginnings, path, and seeds.
As the day and the night will be equal on the 20th of March, this equinox will also be the representation of our needs for balance during this period. It will be the time of new beginnings, renewal, and growth. We can say that this equinox is definitely the best period of the year, in order to focus on some new projects, or get rid of something which doesn’t serve us anymore, and to find the balance we need in life”.
Essentially, these ideas, like so many of the best healing and development tools ideas, actually originated in ancient times.
When people were arguably way more connected to the earth, themselves and the wider universe I’m guessing because they had less distractions and life was simply slower.
Basically, the Spring Equinox is practically, physically, emotionally and spiritually a Fabulous time of energetic opportunity.
Even more so this year, given there’s a full supermoon tonight too. Making this an unusual and even more powerful occurrence – not since 2000 and not until 2030 do they occur so closely together.
Enjoy,
