Autumn Equinox 2024

20240921_114212

Night and day,
Near perfect balance;
Equinox.

The equinox, simply put, is when the sun is positioned exactly above the equator, so for a moment both night and day have equal length.  A moment of harmony.  Here in the UK that moment will be at 01.43 pm today, Sunday 22nd September.

From today, here in the northern hemisphere, the days will grow shorter, as the earth transforms towards a new season.  The autumn equinox opens the doorway to winter.  Are you preparing for the change of season: to rest, recharge and dream?

Happy autumn equinox.

A glorious day out, stopping first at Strandfield (I will post about there on another day) then visiting here at Carlingford in the Republic of Ireland.  The return journey was on the ferry across Carlingford Lough back to Northern Ireland, UK (Greenore to Greencastle) finishing with a very late lunch in Warrenpoint.  I will do this trip again and hopefully I’ll remember to take more photos! 🤔 I forgot to take my hat, perhaps that’s the reason, but the weather was amazing!
