Hello, Beautiful and Magical Soul-
We are standing at a threshold today.
The Spring Equinox is here, one of only two moments each year where light and darkness share equal space across the Earth. A moment of perfect equilibrium. A sacred pause between what has been and what is ready to become.
And if I’m honest… this has always felt like the true beginning of the new year to me.
Not in the middle of winter, when everything is still and inward and quiet, but here.
At the turning.
At the awakening.
At the moment where life begins to stir again.
This is what many ancient cultures honored.
This is what shamanic traditions have always known.
We are leaving the stillness of winter.
The introspection.
The unraveling.
The deep, quiet medicine of the North.
And we are crossing into the medicine wheel through the East.
Into light.
Into movement.
Into vitality.
Into possibility.
The wheel is turning.
For thousands and thousands of years, people have honored this sacred transition by recognizing it as a time of renewal, rebirth, and emergence. A time when the Earth itself begins to awaken… and we, as soulful humans, are invited to do the same.
You might feel it already.
A soft stirring.
A quiet pull forward.
A sense that something within you is ready to bloom.
There is nothing you need to force here.
This is simply a moment to notice…
What is ready to grow?
What seeds are asking to be planted?
What parts of you are asking for light?
What is asking to be released?
What is Spring Equinox?
Across many cultures, this time has been deeply revered.
In Celtic and European traditions, the Goddess Ostara is honored as the bringer of light and fertility. And you may even begin to notice her presence moving through your world in subtle, sacred ways.
For me, I always start seeing rabbits everywhere…..sometimes even before they’re “supposed” to be out, while it’s still winter.
Eggs are another symbol. ( especially Robin Eggs)
Flowers beginning to bloom.
All of it reflecting that quiet awakening… that abundance… the Earth coming back to life.
In Mesoamerica, temples were perfectly aligned with the rising sun…..a testament to the deep reverence for the balance of shadow and light.
And within many shamanic traditions, we are beginning the collective and personal journey through the medicine wheel into the East, the energy of healing.
This is the energy of Golden Eagle Woman.
New beginnings.
Inspiration.
Fertility.
It carries the element of air.
The color green.
And is associated with Archangel Raphael…..the energy of healing, restoration, and renewal.
When we begin to weave these traditions together, we start to feel the deeper wisdom that lives beneath them all.
This moment is sacred.
A time to honor the cycles within your own life……just as much as the collective turning of the Earth.
A Few Simple Ways to Move with and Honor the Energy
You might create a fire ritual by writing down anything you’re ready to release.
Old ways of being, patterns, beliefs, misaligned agreements, ways you’ve been showing up in your life, your business, or your relationships.
And then offering it to the fire.
Letting it be transmuted.
You can work with water by taking a dip in the ocean or a natural body of water if you’re somewhere warm, or creating a bath ritual at home.
Add Epsom salts, baking soda, essential oils, flowers… allowing the water to cleanse your energy, your field, and your body.
You can journal.
You might ask yourself:…..What is something that has been longing to come into the light… that I’ve kept hidden in the shadows?
You can plant seeds……physically or energetically.
Holding a seed in your hand, breathing your intention into it, and placing it into the Earth.
Or you can do a journeying inward… planting seeds within your inner world… and allowing them to be nourished by your devotion.
5. Spend time outside.
This is the best way (IMO) to feel and receive the energies.
I usually will do some sort of Shamanic ritual to honor the elements and work with the energies of this transition.
And as you move through today, just begin to reflect:
What have I been holding onto that is now ready to be seen?
What desires are ready to flourish in this next season?
Where do I need to release in order to fully step into what is becoming?
What seeds am I planting this season?
Name it.
Claim it.
And begin to witness it.
I would truly love to hear what’s alive for you.
Have a beautiful, expansive, and nourishing Spring Equinox.
Hugs,
Nichol
