With the changing of the seasons comes time to reflect on how well you are feeling and how satisfied you are with your life. If Winter is approaching, there can be a feeling of melancholy that is hard to shake as the days grow longer, colder and darker. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere, you may find your spirits lifting as the days grow longer and the evenings lighter.
The equinox can change people’s moods but also signify changes in astrological energy that can have an unseen effect on those who are energetically sensitive. While the positioning of the moon and planets in your solar system rotate systematically and routinely, subtle shifts in solar and planetary energy can have a significant impact on people’s moods and behaviours. Those who can feel shifts in energy through the Earth are particularly vulnerable and may find themselves experiencing random mood swings or picking up vibrational energy that either brings them down or knocks them for a six with a higher frequency.
Either way, the equinox is an ideal time to meditate on what is no longer serving you and letting go of past hurts, negative thought patterns or situations that are keeping you in a holding pattern. It is the perfect opportunity to challenge your belief systems and to stretch yourself beyond normal limitations. It is time to assess possibilities that you may have not previously considered, and to allow yourself to dream. It is also a perfect time to reassess your health and lifestyle and to listen to your body.
Here is a simple meditation to help you to reposition yourself into a more positive mindset around your health, lifestyle and personal relationships. If you are out of balance, this meditation should help to clear and align your energies to allow healing to occur. You may wish to light a candle, hold a crystal or to have gentle music playing. Make sure, also, that you are well hydrated.
Meditation
Take a few slow, deep breaths, grounding yourself into the floor and centering your energy in your heartspace. Intend that you are connected to the universal energy of oneness and protected in your space. Call upon your angel guides to be with you and to guide you in this meditation.
See yourself now on a grid, standing where two lines cross. This signifies the equinox and the changing of the seasons. You are in the universe, with the Earth below you and the beautiful light of the Source of Creation above you. As you stand on the grid, crystalline energy builds and aligns with your chakras. As you continue to breathe in and out slowly, intend that anger, sadness, grief and any other negative emotion are now released from your body, cells, organs and energy fields. Whatever it is that you have identified as needing to be let go of or resolved, such as addictions, toxic relationships, worry about money or feelings of worthlessness, encapsulate each one in spheres of energy and breathe them out. Thank the universe for this opportunity to change what no longer serves you in your life and watch each sphere go out to the universe and up into the light, where it is absorbed and resolved. As each sphere is let go of and sent to the light, your body becomes lighter and more relaxed. You also find yourself becoming one with the grid and being healed by it.
Once you have let go of all that needs to be released, healed or changed, focus on the love and blessings in your life. No matter how small they may seem, or how much adversity you may be facing, give thanks for everything that makes you smile, that fills you with gratitude and that you can feel positive about. Then as you continue breathing in and out, focus on the future as you would like it to be. See it firmly in your minds eye and pour all of your love and positive intention into it. Whatever you need or want to create in your life, such as better health, a child, a new home or financial security, bring it into being by seeing it, believing in it with unwavering faith and thanking the universe for it’s creation for you highest and best in the best timing and form for you. Fill it with joy, love and golden light, then let it go with faith that it will be so. Then, looking down at your feet, see yourself stepping off the crossroads on the grid and over the threshold to a new beginning.
When you are ready, breathe your energy back down to the ground and break ties with the meditation. You may wish to write down some thoughts or any messages you may have received.
