Autumn – A new astrological cycle, the equinox and potent supportive forces to help us let go

Astrology wheel

How have the energies of this year felt for you? How is your body and energy feeling as summer starts to wind down and the days get cooler in preparation for our winter hibernation.

The equinox in March marks the beginning of Autumn in Australia and from an astrological perspective it’s the beginning of a new astrological cycle, when the sun enters Aries on the 20th March. As we’ve all spent the last month submerged in the watery emotional depths of Pisces (the final sign of the zodiac), Aries brings us fiery, courageous and initiatory energy that ignites us into action. Then add into the mix the seasonal change of Autumn, which is associated with the Lung and Large Intestine Meridian (energy channel) and the element of metal in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It’s all about letting go (Large Intestine) of what no longer serves you and grieving (Lung) that loss. What heavy outdated baggage have you been carrying around in your thoughts, your energy and your environment?

Autumn is a potent opportunity to let go of what no longer serves you and create space to welcome in new fresh energy. When we understand the seasonal cycles and work with their energy as opposed to resisting through control, we get into the flow of life. You’ll feel supported and connected. If you resist, you might find health ailments set in like fatigue, illness, rigidity in the body, emotional overwhelm. Your body is trying to signal to you that you’re out of flow! The sun in Aries will give you that kick start and courageous energy to help you process this baggage and let go.

I will note that the Piscean energy is still influencing us as a collective with the North Node (NN) transiting the sign of Pisces. It commenced in January this year and will be in Pisces until the end of July 2026. So what does this mean?

It means that the direction we are heading, our evolution (as a collective) is being influenced by Piscean energy now. We’re being called to slow down, reflect, create, look inwards, surrender, heal and feel more connected to something beyond the physical. It’s encouraging us to move away from the opposing sign Virgo (South Node) energy where we may have been very task oriented, perfectionists, overly analytical or critical of ourselves and others. It’s not to bag on Virgo as we’ll need this energetic influence again when the NN enters Virgo in about 30 years. The focus for our collective soul evolution now is of the Piscean flavour.

Pisces energy is compassionate, deep feeling, intuitive, creative, boundless, connected to non-physical realms and the universe. It can also have the tendency to escape, daydream, be overly trusting and stay in unpleasant situations. To connect in and utilise the empowering qualities of Piscean energy, take time to ground yourself daily and become aware of your physical (feeling) body. Allow the dreamy and ethereal qualities of Piscean energy to inspire your creativity and allow this energy to flow through you.

Calm you mind through meditative or reflective practices to open up your intuition (higher wisdom) and channel any insights into your life. 

The next 18 months the energies will be supporting us to move beyond our attachment to the physical realm and open ourselves up to the interconnectedness and energetic support of the unseen realms. To tap into that higher guidance, spiritual wisdom and loving support that is around us always.

If you feel ready to utilise these cosmic forces with the power of energy medicine, book in for a Kinesiology balance. Each balance removes a layer or layers of outdated patterns that no longer serve your growth. I also incorporate astrology and numerology into my balances, plus a whole range of other modalities. Feel lighter, more liberated and empowered with a Kinesiology balance.
