The Autumnal Equinox or Mabon arrives on September 22nd. The Sun once again crosses the celestial equator, and we find ourselves in a time of equal night and day. This time brings with it harmony and a balance of light and dark, a time when we are preparing to invite in the darkness and the longer nights. It is a time when we are reminded to slow down, to rest, to change our schedules to bring in more ease and embrace this time of stillness as we are adjusting to the coming absence of light.
The 22nd also marks our transition from earthy Virgo into airy Libra. As we welcome the changing energies, allow yourself to embrace the flow of harmony, balance, and peace that comes with it.
This season of beauty is coming in with a gentle intensity, you are being asked to make decisions, to embrace the duality of this energy and accept the assistance that is being offered to help you embrace your inner masculine and feminine as you find balance within yourself.
We are still in the energy of the New Moon and Eclipse portal so don't forget to work with those energies as well as the changing of seasons.
So embrace this time of reflection and look back on all that has transpired. Take a look at your accomplishments and how far you have come, take pause to feel gratitude, and send love to yourself just for being you. You are here, and you are doing it. You are living this life and experiencing all that it has to offer. This is what you are supposed to be doing, living, experiencing, and growing constantly! Be proud and humble, let go of past mistakes, and love yourself completely. Feel pride for how far you have come and for all you have learned. You are amazing, powerful, and full of so much magic. Know that and celebrate it!!!
Rest, reflect, and allow yourself to have this time to replenish your energy while rejuvenating your body, mind, and soul.
You may be feeling more social or have a need to gather, listen to that, have a bonfire, share food, and bring in this season with gratitude, love, and friendship.
Here are some of my favorite Mabon activities:
Setting up an altar
Baking
Crafting
Making leaf piles
Going on hikes
Gathering with family and friends
Bonfires
Cuddles around a fire with lots of stories and laughter
However you celebrate this time is perfect, do what feels good and brings joy!
I hope you have a beautiful equinox and you are filled with peace and magic this season, I'm sending you so much love.
