WHY EQUINOXES
Equinox means equal night. The equinoxes prepare us for the change in mother earth's energy. The Autumn Equinox is the peak of Mother Nature's abundance. Day and night are in equal length and we enter the sign of Libra. We honor the dance between the seen and the unseen, the known and the unknown, the active and the receptive, creation and destruction, conscious and unconscious, death and rebirth, light and dark. W give thanks for our blessings. An attitude of gratitude opens our hearts to increase the flow of love and abundance in our lives.
