The Fall Equinox marks a rare intersection of the Sun and the celestial realms creating a potent planetary alignment, heightening the alchemical frequencies for intentional creation. From a seasonal perspective, this is a time of harvest. We reap the great bounty of our gardens of plenty — both physically and metaphorically.
Are you inspired by what is flourishing in your life right now?
At this auspicious time of the Equinox, we have the opportunity to triangulate the potencies of our personal intention with the alignment of the sun and the celestial realms to experience new levels of abundance — abundance of love, vitality, clarity, support, and tranquility.
Fall Equinox Essential Oil Formula
- 4 drops Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) — grounding, earth harvest
- 1 drop Cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) — fire, vital force
- 2 drops Ginger (Zingiber officinale) — warming, activation
Blend these essential oils (preferably organic) into two tablespoons coconut oil and apply a dime-sized amount to the palms of your hands. Rub together and breathe in for about 30 seconds right before and right after your visualization to anchor the energy within your being.
Fall Equinox Visualization
Find a comfortable seated position. Close your eyes and ground your energy into the earth. Take three deep breaths, releasing any tension or distraction with each exhale.
Envision the golden light of the autumnal sun streaming into your crown chakra. As it descends through your body, it illuminates everything that has grown and flourished in this past season — your relationships, your creative projects, your healing, your wisdom. Let yourself receive and celebrate this harvest.
Then bring your awareness to what is ready to be released — the leaves that are ready to fall, the husks that have served their purpose, the old growth that is composting into rich soil for what comes next. With love and gratitude, breathe these outward on the exhale, returning them to the earth.
Finally, plant one clear seed of intention for the winter season ahead. What do you wish to gestate in the quiet darkness of winter, ready to emerge at Spring Equinox? Breathe this intention in with golden light and seal it in your heart.
Affirmation: “I celebrate the harvest of this season with gratitude and grace. I release what is complete. I welcome the sacred pause of winter. I plant my seeds of intention for the season ahead. Blessed be.”
