The Vernal Equinox

Today marks the equinox, the point of balance when day and night are the same length. For deciduous trees, this balance point in the cycle of growth and dying back is a moment of great beauty, the time when their colors shine the brightest.

What balance point are you at in your life? How do the transitions allow you to shine?

The Daily Compass offers words and images to inspire spiritual reflection and encourage the creation of a more loving, inclusive and just world. Produced by The Church of the Larger Fellowship, the Unitarian Universalist Congregation Without Walls.

    Love your site. Just a note for you: this is autumnal equinox. Spring is Vernal. Thanks for the focus questions.

    I’m sure you meant the “Autumnal Equinox,” not the “Vernal,” which is in spring … ?
