The Autumn Equinox on September 22/23
is considered one of the biggest and most powerful energetic turning points of the whole year.
This is where we experience equal hours of night and day.
The energy is all about bringing balance, new directions, and soul expansion.
Symbolically and spiritually, the equinox is a time of introspection, reflection and giving thanks.
How does it relate to manifesting?
Well…energy flows where attention goes.
That means that when you focus your attention upon the things you want,
you feed them with powerful energy and they begin to manifest.
Feelings of gratitude and self-reflection support your manifestations with high vibrational frequency,
and you can harness that during this year’s equinox,
aligning your energy with the natural world and setting some intentions for the new season ahead.
Do you make a point of recognizing and celebrating the Equinox?
I love to hear about your stories, please share and reply to me.
This is an ideal time to let go of what no longer serves you,
and create space for new evolution and change.
Here is a beautiful way to connect to the real you and celebrate the Autumn Equinox
with a manifesting ritual and an Autumn Altar.
Crafting an altar really just means making space somewhere in your home
to create a beautiful area that connects with the energy of the season and aligns you with that frequency.
For me, it’s a way to feel more present, and enrich my meditation and spiritual practices.
It’s something I have been doing for years, and every time this season returns,
I am reminded of the beauty of balance, introspection and healing through nature.
Here’s how I create my Autumn Equinox Altar:
I find beautiful, symbolic objects out in nature and bring them in to arrange in my space.
Think flowers, red leaves, pumpkins or gourds, pinecones, apples, acorns,
wheatsheaves – whatever is available to you that resonates deeply with the season and all it symbolizes.
I choose a place to decorate in my home, somewhere out of the way of bustle,
where I can go and be quiet and reflect.
Next, I add candles, crystals, and anything that makes me feel connected to these energies.
I like to diffuse essential oils and choose scents such as sage, rosemary, bergamot, and sandalwood.
Anything earthy and natural feels great to me.
You can also add anything personal that represents something you desire or wish
or even just feel connected to at this time.
Photos, poems, handcrafts – whatever feels right in your heart!
The idea is to create an altar that makes you feel uplifted,
intune with the high frequencies of the Equinox and inspired to manifest your dreams.
Written Intentions
Write down your hopes, intentions, wishes, and desires for the coming season.
Place these written notes around your altar.
This is a process to manifest your desires and focus your attention and energy there.
Make these as beautiful as you wish to enhance the energy of this ritual
by using special paper and pens – whatever makes your feel happy.
Be sure to create your intentions as simple as possible, clear,
and positive using present tense language.
For example, I am increasing my income every moment.
I am attracting the most wonderful, loving relationship.
I am experiencing incredible health.
It just gives your intentions the power and active energy required.
The idea is to return each day to remind yourself of your intentions
and focus your energy on what you wish to manifest.
The energy of the Autumn Equinox will assist you.
I usually take just a few minutes each day to meditate on my intentions by my altar,
choosing to luxuriate in the space I have created there.
Let your altar be a unique space where you can express your creativity and desires with ease.
There are no rules here, this is about you filling the space in a way that is meaningful to you alone.
By reviewing and reflecting upon your intentions throughout this season and especially around the Equinox,
you will maintain a focused mind and clear energy on your desires.
The beauty and natural abundance of this season will fill you with positive energy,
may it bring you closer to living your manifestations.
