Your Fall Equinox 2018 horoscope is here

The Fall Equinox is a crucial point in the solar cycle when, for the Northern Hemisphere, the Sun drops below the celestial equator and heads south into the lower half of the sky. It's a point of equal day and night. From this point on night will grow longer than day.

The Sun enters the cardinal sign of Libra on this day. It's the time of the harvest when we give thanks for the fruits of the earth. The Sun will move through Scorpio and Sagittarius, before reaching the Winter Solstice in December.

The Mayans knew these Equinoctial points were important; so much so, that they built the Kukulkan Pyramid in Chichen Itza which was aligned in such a way that twice a year at the Spring and Fall Equinoxes, the setting sun would hit the northeast balustrade wall casting triangular shadows that undulated down the staircase like a serpent slithering down the steps.

A large sculpture of a serpent's head is at its base, so that when the shadow of the serpent reaches the bottom of the pyramid, it unites with the sculpted head of the serpent i.e. Kukulkan. The engineering and construction of such a pyramid is astonishing.

Make a list of your hopes, dreams and aspirations. Write everything down and light a candle. The Equinox takes place on Saturday the 22nd at 9:54pm ET. 

Keep that list in your bag, wallet, desk, nailed to the wall or glued to your forehead. It will serve as a reminder of where you are going. Look to the Sun for guidance. Stay connected! The Sun will warm your soul, inspire your heart and give you the energy to make miracles happen.
