Letting Go of What No Longer Serves: Autumn Equinox Meditation

Join us for our observance of the autumn equinox, where we’ll commune together outside in nature, weather permitting. The autumn equinox is a time of balance and equilibrium between the light and the dark, when the length of the days and nights are equal. The nights continue to grow longer as we descend into winter. Autumn is also a time of letting go of what no longer serves us, just as the leaves and plant life die and fall to the ground in colorful beauty, leaving seeds to be reborn in the spring.

Communally participating in seasonal shifts is a time-honored practice. Through connection with nature, listening, sound, and silence, we’ll make a journey of descent through the labyrinth and release what no longer serves us. If you wish, bring an object that represents something you wish to release in your life, to be left on the altar during our journey.
