The power of spring equinox

Every moment contains an opportunity.

The question is, how can you seize the opportunity in each moment and feel harmoniously connected to seasons of your life.

In this article we will explore 3 keys that will make you enjoy the power of the spring equinox even more.

key 1: Time to balance things out

The spring equinox marks an important moment in the year. It is the middle point between winter and summer. In terms of yin and yang, we could say that winter is a very yin introvert season. While summer is a very yang outward going season. And spring is right in the middle. It is the balance point where yin and yang are in balance.

One part of the word equinox is “equi” and connected to the word “equal” or the same. The word night is derived from the Latin “nox”. So spring equinox marks the time of the year where day and night are kind of the same length. I say, kind of, because the extact same lengt of day and night is a few days before the spring equinox and is called equilux.

But anyway, the important thing is that this is a moment of balance.

And what happens in our bodies reflects what happens in nature. So this is a beautiful moment to enhance your sense of balance. Balance between the yang and the yin. This could be: balance between your work and personal life, balance between how much time you spent on action and how much time you spent on relaxing, balance in your relationships, balance between your masculine strength and feminine softness, balance between …

Just think about it for a moment. Where in your life do you long for more balance? What is one thing you can do this week to experience more balance?

KEY 2: Growing life energy

While the yin and yang power are equal around the time of the spring equinox, the yang is surely rising and growing. You can see it all around you how nature bursts opens with beautiful colours, the sun becomes warmer, the days longer. You will soon feel more energised just through the colourful images of flowers, the sounds of birds and the light of spring. Farmers usually live closer to these natural rhythms. They feel when it is time to come in motion and start to work the fields. You can connect with the natural rhythms even if you are not farming. Whatever your work is, this is a good moment to use the growing life energy to get up a bit earlier in the morning and work on the things you love, so you can prepare a good harvest…

Take a moment to reflect. Where can you take some more actions, to prepare for a great harvest of that what brings you joy.

key 3: Renewal

The last keyword is renewal. Spring is a time of fresh innocence. It is a great moment to renew yourself, try out new things, reinvent your business, heal your body and heart, reconnect with your own innocence. You can be young on the inside, no matter what age you have. There is an eternal fountain of flowing energy that comes back after the harshness of winter, again and again.

Remember yourself as a teenager, as a child. Remember the fresh energy you were born with. The moment before people start to imprint their ideas in you, the moment before you were hurt, … Just close your eyes for a moment and connect with your deepest memory of your own pure energy. Keep connecting with that fountain of youth inside of you, to renew yourself again and again.

Where do you want to experience fresh energy in your life this spring?
