Celebrating the Spring Equinox

03.20.2012

Today is the Spring Equinox. Or Autumn equinox for the southern hemisphere. The day when the light and the dark are equal. It’s the start of a new season. It’s also the Persian New Year.

I love that nature gives us moments to pause. Moments to celebrate.

It’s a wonderful day to watch the sunrise or sunset.

Or to think about a garden (here in Michigan we can’t plant most things yet).

We always go on a nice, long walk to greet spring.

We eat eggs, asparagus, spring greens, cheese and other spring foods.

I like to eat lunch outside when the weather cooperates.

Remember your connection to nature today. Bring a more natural rhythm to your day. What can you do to celebrate the Equinox?
