As summer fades and autumn arrives, we come together to honor the turning of the seasons with a community ritual centered on balance. The autumn equinox is a rare moment in the year when day and night stand equal — a natural reminder of the harmony we seek in our own lives.
Our gathering will be led in a gentle, secular style, open to all who wish to attend. The ritual will invite both participants and observers, ensuring everyone can engage at their own comfort level. Those who choose to participate may share reflections on balance in their lives, engage in guided meditation, and join in a closing gesture of gratitude. Observers are warmly welcomed to witness, listen, and hold space for the group.
Together, we will explore:
• The astronomical and symbolic meaning of the equinox
• How balance shows up in our personal lives and creative work
• A 10-minute guided meditation on breath, presence, and connection
• A closing practice of gratitude and community
Rituals at Lavender Studios are designed to create a brave and welcoming space where voices are heard without judgment and where community connection is nurtured. By gathering in this way, we honor the passage of time, the cycles of nature, and our own personal growth.
Whether you come to speak, meditate, or simply observe, you are welcome. This evening will be a chance to pause, reflect, and celebrate the balance of light and dark — both in the world around us and within ourselves.
