Meditation for the Fall Equinox
Meditations on the Seasons
Across time and cultures, people have organized their lives around the rhythms of the seasons—using stories and rituals to guide their survival and make meaning of their lives. The cycle of the year is marked by eight key points: the solstices, the equinoxes and the midpoints between them. This eightfold pattern reflects nature’s cycles of growth, change, death and renewal. In eventful times, this annual cycle offers a steady rhythm—an invitation to pause and reconnect with the world around us.
Fall Equinox
The fall equinox is the halfway point between the summer and winter solstices, and marks the second of three traditional harvest festivals. Summer is winding down and autumn officially begins. This threshold is a time to tune into the changing season, give thanks, and reflect on what’s still growing in your life and what’s coming to an end.
Our virtual time together includes:
- A short talk on seasonal themes and history of this time
- Guided meditations and reflections
- Time to journal or share
Optional: If you wish, bring something that symbolizes balance, gratitude, or the harvest season—a candle, an apple or root vegetable, leaves or acorns, a favorite stone, or anything in fall colors.
Cost: $25. Payment details are on the registration page. If cost is a barrier, scholarships are available—just email me and let me know.
