The Fall equinox marks a time of transition when nature invites us to balance light and darkness. It's a sacred time to ground ourselves, reconnect with the Earth and express gratitude for the abundance in our lives. This ritual is a beautiful way to celebrate this season while strengthening our connection with the Earth element.
Autumn, with its golden colors and cooler days, reminds us to slow down and honor the harvest - whether physical, emotional or spiritual. By taking a moment to express our gratitude, we create space for more abundance and clarity in our lives. Here's a telluric autumn ritual you can practice on or just after the Fall equinox:
Materials required
A tiger's eye stone
A candle (preferably red, brown or gold, in connection with autumn and the Earth)
Incense or fumigation stick (optional)
A notebook and pen to record your gratitude reflections
Create a sacred space: Choose a quiet spot, indoors or out, where you won't be disturbed. Light the candle and, if you wish, the incense or the fumigation stick to purify the space.
Take a few deep breaths: Sit comfortably and take three slow, deep breaths. Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth to relax and center yourself.
Connect to the Earth: Hold your tiger's eye stone in your hands. Close your eyes and visualize roots extending from the soles of your feet, down deep into the Earth. With each inhalation, feel these roots grow stronger, and with each exhalation, imagine them sinking deeper, to the center of the Earth.
Gratitude for abundance: When you're feeling grounded, take out your notebook and write down three things you're grateful for this year. This could include accomplishments, relationships, learnings or unexpected blessings.
Closing: Thank the Earth for its support and extinguish the candle. You may choose to keep the stone close to you or place it on your altar to continue to benefit from its energy during this season.
This ritual allows you to reconnect with the Earth's nurturing and protective energy. By expressing your gratitude, you open the door to new opportunities and positive energies in your life. Tiger's eye helps balance energies and develop mental clarity, while protecting you from negative influences.
The autumn equinox is an invitation to honor our accomplishments and prepare our spirit for the season ahead. May this ritual bring you grounding, gratitude and abundance in the months ahead.
