Did you know that many ancient traditions honoured this time and had (some still have) celebrations marking the sun’s crossing of the celestial equator? The Mayans, the Egyptians, the Pagans, and the Persian Nowruz “New Year” all recognised this sacred transition.
The Spring Equinox, taking place on March 20th, symbolizes balance, new beginnings, fertility, and renewal. This is an exciting time to set your intentions for the year ahead.
I know we did that more or less around the “New Year,” but symbolically, and in alignment with nature’s cycles, this is a powerful moment to do so.
There is something truly liberating about letting go of things that no longer serve a purpose and have simply been taking up unnecessary space. Plus, it creates a healthy balance of giving and receiving!
Balance is key for this Equinox. I know many of you might be tempted to focus on manifesting, but I’d like to invite you to reflect on your life: What are you thinking, feeling, or doing in excess?
Take this time to reduce what no longer serves you to create greater harmony.
Manifestations can turn into obsessions, and that imbalance can block flow. If you’ve been constantly seeking or chasing something, I’m not saying to give up, but maybe take a break.
Only you can judge if you’ve done enough—or someone who can objectively help you. That’s usually where my role comes in.
That being said, I’d like to share some practices you can do from March 20-22 to align with this powerful cycle:
Spring Equinox Practices
Sunrise & Sunset Meditation
Dedicate a day to meditating at sunrise and sunset. Let it be a gratitude practice—truly appreciating all that you have and all that you wish to bring into your life.
Light a White or Yellow Candle
This symbolizes light, clarity, and renewal. It’s also a great time to honor your living and working spaces.
Write & Bury Your Intentions
Instead of burning or storing your intentions, write them down and bury them in a pot of soil along with seeds. Water them daily to activate the growth of your goals.
Smudge & Clear Your Space
Use sage, palo santo, or incense. Move counterclockwise, starting from the right side of your main door, and focus on the corners of each room. Mentally affirm: “Cleanse and purify.”
(If you want to learn more about this and passive manifestation, join my online or in-person training on April 12.)
Decorate with Fresh Flowers & Plants
Place them in the East and North of your space for abundance and growth in 2024.
Ground Your Energy
Walk barefoot indoors or outdoors (on grass or the beach). Visualize roots from your sole chakras (the center of your feet) extending deep into the earth.
Gaze at the Sun & Moon
Look at the sun and moon for 7 seconds only during sunrise or sunset (to avoid harming your eyes). Set the intention for solar energy to energize your aura and lunar energy to bring wisdom.
Listen to Frequency Music Before Sleep
Your energy is more open than usual—use sound healing to balance your left and right brain. My favourite is Super Mind (which I do daily). It’s on sale now—you can get it here.
Give Away What You Don’t Need
Before letting go of items, thank them first. This shifts you into an abundant mindset and prepares you to receive new blessings!
Sip Herbal Tea
Cleanse and refresh your body with a warm cup of herbal tea.
Spring Equinox Affirmations
Write these down 21 times on the Spring Equinox and plant them in the soil:
My life just keeps getting better and better.
I, (your name), live in harmony and balance.
Abundance grows every day in my life.
