As the Autumn Equinox arrives, we stand on the edge of balance,
The world, poised between light and dark, day and night.
We honor the balance within ourselves,
The harmony between our inner light and shadow.
In this season, we are invited to slow down, to reflect,
To gather the harvest of our thoughts, our deeds, our hearts.
We accept this invitation with open hands,
Gathering love and compassion like golden leaves.
This is a time to deepen our spiritual roots,
To seek wisdom in the turning of the earth.
We root ourselves in the sacred,
Drawing strength from the quiet depths of our souls.
Let us walk the labyrinth of balance with mindful steps,
Guided by the love that unites us all.
We walk in the spirit of compassion,
Holding space for each other in this shared journey.
As day and night embrace in perfect equality,
We too embrace the fullness of life’s dualities.
In this sacred moment, we find our center,
And with grateful hearts, we move forward in peace.
