Equinox! Refresh & Renew.

Deep in our bones live
the memories of our ancestors.
The rhythms of the seasons
resonate through the multitude of branches
of each family tree.

Now.
The rhythms of the seasons
are fragmented and unraveling,
no longer tied to weather patterns,
plant germination and animal migrations.
No longer in sync with rainfall and snowstorms
and heatwaves and cold streams that swirl around our planet.

Deep in our bones live
the memories of our ancestors.
Phases of the moon:
dark moon, half-moon, and bright moon,
travel through the storied constellations
night after night
after night,
each and every night for millennia.

Now.
We can still depend on
the sun and the moon,
on the cycles of the planets.
We are connected
to all of this.

Now.
The Equinox
the still point,
one breath, one brief moment,
a milestone of balance.

Affirm.
Each one of us
is a culmination,
a budding leaf tip,
a unique branch
of an ancient family tree.

We can still depend on
the instinctual wisdom
that hums from the heartwood
and flows through our lifeblood.
We are connected
to all of this.

Equinox. Refresh & Renew.
Begin again
and again and again.

The Equinox
the still point,
one breath, one brief moment,
a milestone of balance.
Begin again
and again and again.

Soon the days will grow longer and already people are restless to spread their wings. “Between a Rock and a Lightning Bolt”, this year is a good time to break patterns, innovate and redesign how and where we’re going. The Equinox is a wise time to pause, reflect and engage with the here and now.

The Equinox is at 2:32 am PDT, no matter if you’re sleeping. How may you greet the arrival of the Equinox on March 20?

“When you begin to touch your heart or let your heart be touched, you begin to discover that it’s bottomless, that it doesn’t have any resolution, that this heart is huge, vast, and limitless. You begin to discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, as well as how much space.”
Pema Chödrön

Seeds of Inquiry and Contemplation

How may I surrender to earth’s intelligence?

What is my intuition saying now?

Am I listening?

Imagine yourself as a flowering branch of your ancient family tree. Even if you don’t know much about your lineage, call to your ancestors and listen.

“Walking. I am listening to a deeper way. Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me. Be still, they say. Watch and listen. You are the result of the love of thousands.” Linda Hogan, Native American poet, storyteller and author.

It takes persistence and honesty to listen and understand.

“The unconscious wants truth. It ceases to speak to those who want something else more than truth.” Adrienne Rich

Don’t give up. Be kind to yourself. Be steadfast in seeking your truth.

“The difference between a life lived actively, and a life of passive drifting and dispersal of energies, is an immense difference. Once we begin to feel committed to our lives, responsible to ourselves, we can never again be satisfied with the old, passive way.” Adrienne Rich

The sun, the moon and the planets are your allies in seeking truth. They offer parameters, milestones and timing. They open doors – if you are willing to step through the threshold to deeper understanding and self-acceptance. I welcome your inquiry as we stand at the crossroads. I offer navigation in the mystery through astrology and tarot.
With Love,
Jacqueline
