Autumn Equinox Meditation September 2024. The Autumnal Equinox is Sunday, September 22, 2024 in the northern hemisphere. The September 2024 Equinox marks the first day of fall and the start of Libra season. The Fall Equinox is one of only two days per year when the sun is directly about the Equator; dividing night and day into equal parts.

The Autumn Equinox spiritual meaning is one of preparation. We shift our focus to the beginning of Autumn and a season filled with change, reflection and gratitude. We find an internal and external balance, much like the equator, and purposefully pause.

When the seasons change, there is an abundance of energy available for us to use to our advantage.

WHAT IS THE AUTUMNAL EQUINOX?
The Autumn Equinox occurs when the sun crosses the Earth's equator, marking the official transition from summer to fall. The fall Equinox brings shorter days and a shifting felt by all. The Fall Equinox marks the date where the day and night are equal in length. The balance of light and dark represents a powerful spiritual metaphor and reminder in our own lives.

HOW TO USE THE ENERGY OF THE AUTUMN EQUINOX
The Fall Equinox marks a time to appreciate all the things about our internal and external world that we have learned from so far this year. There is wisdom in the lessons and the obstacle is the path. It can be challenging to find the light, and the equinox is a time to reflect on the positive ways your challenges have protected you and brought you something even better than you initially hoped for.

What challenges have you faced over the past year? Perhaps it's too early to fully grasp their purpose; however, I encourage you to try to find any positives that came from them. The present is never permanent, and every obstacle will pass.

GRATITUDE FOR THE AUTUMN EQUINOX
It's time to reap the rewards of your hard work and to reflect on all the many blessings in your life. The Equinox reminds us to glance out over our bountiful life and to see everything that has sprouted along the way. Perhaps you've finally let go of a bad habit you've carried with you for years. Or learned to be more present in your daily life and interactions. Maybe you've learned how to live in the present by practicing mindfulness each day.

Today, I encourage you to honor the experiences.To honor just how far you have come.

WHAT IS MABON?
Mabon is a pagan holiday celebrating the Autumnal Equinox with a traditional harvest festival. It takes inspiration from ancient Celts who would give thanks to nature for the harvest and to pray to their gods and goddesses that the crop would carry them through winter. In the northern hemisphere, we celebrate Mabon in September and the southern hemisphere celebrates Mabon in March.

The name Mabon comes from the Welsh God, who was the son of the Earth Mother Goddess. However, there is evidence that the name was adopted in the 1970s, and the holiday was not originally a Celtic celebration.

Apples are a common symbol of Mabon, or the second harvest. Pagans might pick apples and give thanks to the gods for the bountiful harvest before them. Some might perform a Mabon ritual to restore balance and harmony to their lives, as this holiday honors a day with equal parts light and dark.

Celebrate Mabon with a simple ritual or festival of your own as a reminder of all you have to be grateful for as we mark the passage of time towards another season ahead.
