Spring Equinox is Thursday March 20th at 4:59 pm Central Time.
The earth has received the embrace of the sun
and we shall soon see the results of that love.
Every seed has awakened
and so has all the animal life.
It is through this mysterious power that
we, too, have our being.
~ Sitting Bull
This year, I am celebrating Spring Equinox away from the land I live in–in Mexico on vacation!
When we left Minnesota last week, all of a sudden, Spring rains had begun, melting our 2 feet of snow and creating a treacherous, icy landscape, with very real threats of flooding.
The embrace of the sun is being received by the atmosphere, creating rain instead of more snow. The trees are receiving this information and sending it down to their roots, and the buds are counting the hours of daylight until it’s time to pop. This love between sun and earth is beginning to awaken seeds and animals.
How can you let this mysterious power of being awaken you?
This is a question I have taken with me to Mexico.
In the meantime, I offer you practices and rituals from past blogposts so you can align yourself with this great turning of the seasons.
Choose something to support what you need right now in your life to allow this mysterious power to awaken (in) you:
-
- An invitation to begin again.
- A ritual for cracking open and nourishing the seeds that want to burst into life.
- A ritual to stay awake and release what is no longer needed into the earth.
- A practice of smiling into Spring.
- A ritual to nourish your dreams for your life.
- A ritual to breathe into life-affirming vision.
- A ritual to release obstacles to growth.
