As the Earth’s axis aligns with the Sun, equal amounts of daylight and darkness cover the planet. This Equinox is more than a transition from seasons, it’s a festival of awakening and rebirth. As we transition from one season to the next we have deep change acknowledged by the arrival of the Equinox on March 20-21st. Beyond the change in seasons, this powerful moment holds deep spiritual significance, symbolising the soul’s rebirth, growth, and awakening, and all of this to mark an energetic shift to regain our personal power.

Renewal energy fills the air as the Earth readies us to go through shifts and awaken further into parts of us that have been lying dormant.  We will need some parts of us to be put aside to recharge for later and some parts of us opening up with a new breath of life. 

For those in the northern hemisphere going through the spring equinox the days grow longer, and the warmth of the sun returns with power to grow things. In the southern hemisphere we will be going into the cooler months which enable us to hibernate and grow our creations; still generating power but Autumn brings the focus on power and growth internally and spring brings that focus externally.

This awakening mirrors the rekindling of who we are and it’s quite common for many to go through spiritual upgrades, becoming more sensitive to the natural ebbs and flows of life which inspires new ideas, dreams, and a sense of aliveness and connection.

The Equinox also marks the beginning of the astrological new year. The energy of new beginnings, encouraging us to take risks, assert our will, and embark on courageous journeys, especially within, as that’s where it all begins.

Cultures worldwide have long recognised the March equinox as a time of balance, renewal, and new beginnings. Ancient civilizations celebrated it as a pivotal moment for growth and transformation, aligning with the Earth’s physical and spiritual rejuvenation.
