Spiritual Self-Care for Lung Season
According to TCM, lungs have an association with the emotion of grief. (Read the Spiritual Meaning of Lung Illnesses). When we do not take the time to rest and fully process our grief, it can get stuck in the lungs, making us more vulnerable to coughs and respiratory illnesses. Overthinking and being overly busy can sometimes be a defense against the emotion of sorrow.
The Spiritual Meaning of the Autumn Equinox
The word equinox is a Latin word meaning equal night. The Autumn Equinox, usually falling around the 22nd of September, is a time when day and night are roughly equal in length. At this turning point, the fall season begins and nights become longer than the days in the Northern Hemisphere. (In the Southern Hemisphere, the Autumn Equinox falls around March 22nd.) Energetically, the Autumn Equinox is a time of balance and pause, a transitional moment between the bright half of the year and the dark half of the year.
