As we enter the season of Autumn, we tap into our past to reflect and prepare for the months to come. In this workshop, we’ll utilize holistic techniques including yoga, meditation, journaling, and discussion to reconnect with yourself in alignment with the Equinox.
It is the summer’s great last heat,
It is the fall’s first chill: They meet.
–Sarah Morgan Bryan Piatt
Autumnal Equinox
The Autumnal Equinox is an astronomical event that marks the start of Fall. The full moon that occurs nearest to the Autumnal Equinox is called the Harvest Moon. Around this time, the full Moon rises around sunset for several nights in a row, which traditionally provided farmers with just enough extra light for them to finish their harvests before the killing frosts of fall set in. Normally, the Moon rises about an hour later each night, but around the time of the fall equinox, the angle of the Moon’s orbit and the tilt of the Earth line up just right and cause the Moon to rise only about 20 to 30 minutes later each night for several nights in a row.
