Spring Equinox Ritual Guide: Balance, Renewal & New Beginnings

The Spring Equinox, also called the Vernal Equinox, marks the magical moment when day and night are in perfect balance. In the Southern Hemisphere, it usually falls around September 22–23, welcoming us into the season of growth, fertility, and fresh opportunities.

Spiritually, the Equinox is a time to release the old, embrace balance, and plant seeds of intention for the months ahead. Below, you’ll find a step-by-step Spring Equinox ritual with crystals, essential oils, journaling prompts, and affirmations to help you align with this powerful seasonal energy.
