How to spell Equinox – September 2022

First things first: what is the September equinox?

No matter where you are in the world, on the equinox September 22 It is one of two days per year when the hours of the night are equal to the hours of the day (hence the term “equi-nox,” or similar night).

Why do we celebrate it? Hellenistic astrology has its roots in the Enlightenment traditions of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia and Greece. Because these regions are located in the Northern Hemisphere, the ancients associated the September equinox with the start of fall – a time of harvest and transition. From now until the December solstice, the days will get darker. The leaves will turn crimson and wilt. The wind will feel more crisp on our skin, and whatever harvest we’ve gathered, we’ll have to endure it until the next growing season.

If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, the opposite is true. At this point in the year, life has returned to Earth, marking the beginning of spring. During this symbolic rebirth, the soil thaws, shoots emerge, and the flowers release their fragrance.

The point is this: wherever you are in the world, the equinox turns the wheel of the year and usher in a new season.

Rituals to Honor the September Equinox

Since ancient times, humans around the world have marked both the March and September equinoxes as special, powerful, and even sacred. Some cultures built monuments, some made pilgrimages, and others gathered to feast, celebrate, and perform rituals, which helped align them with the energies of the new season.

Because of this, we want to offer you some ideas on how to engage with the moment yourself. Here are six rituals to help you honor the seasonal change.

  1. Happen in nature. Visit your favorite body of water, park, farm, or go hiking. If you have a garden, devote time to gathering the fruits or vegetables that are ready to be picked.
  2. Take A moment to enjoy your personal harvest. Enjoy all the hard work you are doing, gathering, or bearing fruit this year. Thank you. Share this with friends. Celebrate your progress and how far you have come.
  3. restore balance in your home. Clear out your closet and junk drawer. Give or sell anything that seems like extra weight. With equal hours of light and darkness, this equinox brings an opportunity to recalculate inside and out.
  4. conduct An energy clearing in your home. Complete the ritual of cleaning each room, clearing all the deadlocks. Sweep in the direction of your door – then exit the door. Sending away stagnant energy will help you enter the new season afresh.
  5. to adorn For your home and/or altar with seasonal foliage, such as roses, apples, pinecones, gourds, leaves, or anything seasonal for the area you live in. Make your space into a sanctuary that celebrates the season.
  6. Meditation, or do an exercise that helps restore mental balance. (If you need some ideas, we have an abundance of guided meditations Chani App,

Scorpio daily horoscope – 31 May 2022

The energy around you is in tune with a lot of emotions and it’s all for the power of tomorrow’s new moon, and it will continue to act on you and affect your emotions and your heartbeat in the weeks to come. You have a remarkable ability, in the best of times, to pluck the depths of your and other people’s feelings. But still more because of the intensity of what is happening internally and externally. If your emotions are telling you that you feel that way, there’s no such thing as too intense for you today, but you can still keep a lid on it if you have to. What superpower is your moon revealing?

Mercury has entered its shadow zone on the 25th of Virgo – to look back and complete our transformation into Libra and Virgo

The shadow region is defined by the period where a planet turns retrograde, and where it goes directly after the retrograde period. In this case, Mercury turns retrograde on 9th September into Libra. It will retrograde back to the 25th of Virgo, where it stabilizes directly on 2nd October, the birthdays of Mahatma Gandhi and Groucho Marx. It casts a shadow zone between 25 Virgo and 9 Libra, and on August 21 Mercury enters 25 Virgo, the degree where it will go SD in early October. I will be writing some articles about the upcoming retrograde which will be posted as we get closer. So now we begin an 8-week round of three phases on the first 9 degrees of Libra and the last 6 degrees of Virgo. We will have old Virgo and Libra returns related to people and events that affected our lives in the past. It would be “looking back” in memory of past work and partners, past service and the people we once looked up to as equals. It brings up memories of former Virgo and Libra experiences so that...
