Friday 20th March 2026 the Northern Hemisphere will welcome spring with the arrival of the vernal equinox.
Vernal meaning “of the spring”, “new” and “fresh,” and equinox derived from the Latin aequus meaning equal and nox meaning night.
On the Vernal Equinox we experience a balance of the day and the night, equal amounts of light and dark on the same day. Essentially, the hours of daylight — the period of time each day between sunrise and sunset — have been growing slightly longer each day since the Winter Solstice in December, which is the shortest day of the year, in terms of light experienced.
Even after three months of lengthening days, we still see less light than darkness over the course of a day. The vernal equinox marks the turning point when daylight begins to over take the darkness and we experience more life force creative energy within our minds and bodies. So what does that mean?
As the darkness diminishes and the light increases you may feel a building of imaginative and creative energy, perhaps a lifting of the fog and a dropping of the sleepy blanket that you have been curled up in for the past few months of winter.
In the darkest months of the year we are encouraged by the energies to go within and be in the silence of inner darkness or death. Where we go wrong is in fearing that our inner world has gone dark and that the light will not return. Just as the world turns on its axis and brings about the return of the light turn after turn, we can rely on the return of our own light & energy and richness of our internal garden.
It’s difficult to trust that your life has purpose and meaning even when you are not being productive, but it is the rhythms and cycles of Earth that show us and encourage us to rest in darkness and allow for the light to unfold us and help us blossom without forcing or making things happen.
Finally it’s here we come into balance.
