The Spring Equinox this year arrives on March 20. Earth’s axis is then perpendicular to the sun, making day and night just about equal. Birds return from their southern winter homes, plants emerge from the ground, animals emerge from hibernation, and we humans also emerge from our own winter hibernation and seasonal affective disorder. We spend more time outdoors, plant our gardens and become more energized.
Symbolically, it’s a time of re-awakening, renewal, rebirth, transition and balance. Many cultures mark this time with special celebrations and rituals. Perhaps your own culture or family has a special way of honoring this time.
Dori will lead you through a short deep breathing and relaxation exercise, then a seasonal meditation, followed by a creative response inspired by that experience, such as a drawing, collage, poetry, dance, or music as the spirit moves you. Discussion will explore how Nature re-emerges in spring, and what is emerging for you.
There is no cost.
No experience necessary.
