Yesterday, September 22 we experienced the Fall equinox at 9:30 a.m. EDT.
Typically the equinoxes represent the equal division of day and night. The Spring equinox (Ostara) celebrates new beginnings and fresh starts. The Fall equinox (Mabon) celebrates reaping the rewards of your hard labour and gathering the harvest. The Fall equinox is a time of reflection on the harvest of your achievements and often considered a time of change. It is linked to the sign Libra which above all else is a balancing sign. The balance that you need to strive for is the knowing of what you need to hold on to and what you need to let go of.
Some consider this a time of sacrifice as you now reap the rewards of your labour and if you have not sown the seeds of life in the manner you should have, you may have to sacrifice because of these shortfalls and count your losses.
Astrologically, the Fall equinox represents a balancing point of our self-image and any disapproval that is found in our view of ourselves. We should review our goals in achieving our life’s quest and the conquests we have made in our lives. This review will assist us in recognizing our abilities and true selves.
On the opposite side, the spring equinox is linked to the sign Aries and Aries begins things and initiates action. These two points (spring and fall equinox) are known as cardinal points. The cardinal points in the horoscope are known as action points. They are used as timing devices and lead to activity, drive, ambition, and involvement. During these cycles, you should consider this as a time of action -- either related to the start of something or the end or culmination point of whatever action you have already taken.
It is a time to actively pursue a course of action, to take control of your life and push forward in the direction of your choice. Cardinal signs are action oriented and strive for activity that is often personally initiated. This will be the time for you to make things happen. Do not wait for or rely on others.
This will be the time to push ahead or count your losses and set new things in motion. Use the energies of the equinox to push you forward and make the changes you need to and address any situation that needs addressing. The time has come to move beyond any stagnated stages of life that have held you back. Now is the time to reap the rewards after a busy season of planting the seeds and nurturing growth. These efforts are now ready to be harvested.
