The autumn equinox is upon us. Leading up to it, I kept thinking that it was going to be bittersweet because the summer was ending. Although it is in a way sad because the warmer days are behind us again everything has a time and a place and now is the time for warm scarves, hot drinks, fires and hugs.

On the equinox the amount of daylight and night is equal. To me this is profound and helps me reflect and remember that you get to choose between the light and darkness, but to also fully embrace both. Without light there is so darkness and vice versa. To be in the darkness or to feel down is not inherently bad it is just the contrast to lightness. So feel both and then choose and set the intention for what you want in your life.
