The Spring Equinox, or Vernal Equinox, represents rebirth, vitality, awakening after a slumber. A new year of energy bursts forth in March, much more than our traditional calendar observation in January. In the Northern Hemisphere, we’ll celebrate the spring equinox on March 19th, 2024. There are many ways to acknowledge this time of change. Some suggestions are to meditate in nature, go for a slow walk in a park, sit next to running water and let all of your senses open up. Journaling, gentle stretching, and making crystal grids are also excellent ways to celebrate the beginning of spring. There are a number of crystals that resonate the energy of spring, help to perk up your energy, and allow you to have a greater focus on manifesting new beginnings and starting new goals for yourself. Here are some of our favorites for the Spring Equinox.
