How Each Zodiac Sign Can Manifest Abundance On The Autumn Equinox (9/22)

The autumn season is one that is filled with abundance.

The harvest brings an overflow of crops, as some seeds are being sown for next year and reserves are being preserved. While modern life has taken us far from the agriculturally-centered society we once were, the imprint of our ancestors still remains. Fall and its doorway, the Autumn Equinox, carry the energetic resonance of a time of gratitude, where hard work pays off. 

Some know this day as Mabon, but the Autumn Equinox is a time where the day and night are equal, marked by the Sun’s move into the zodiac sign of Libra. It’s especially powerful to take stock, express gratitude for what we have, seek balance and harmony as we set intentions for more abundance. This year the equinox falls on September 22, and on the same day action-oriented Mars transitions into deeply passionate Scorpio, a rather favorable place for the ambitious planet. Our overall motivation or drive really ramps up. Read on to find out what intentions cosmically align with your zodiac sign, and a mini ritual to perform to claim your abundance. 

Aries

This fall you’re manifesting a love so divine. Whether you’re single and looking for the one, or wanting to upgrade a current relationship, all romantic endeavors are cosmically supported for you Aries! The Autumn Equinox is the perfect time to put your intention and heart out there.  Your dream love affair is waiting for you this harvest season.

Ritual: Light a pink or red candle to call love, passion and romance into life on September 22. Sit with it (of course, never leave an open flame unattended) and meditate or journal your amorous intentions. If you don’t have time to do this, simply charge a piece of rose quartz with your intentions in your window all day and night to call in more love. 

Taurus 

If relationships are starting to feel like work, it’s time to call in greater ease. As the day and night are at a balance, ask the Universe to help you do the same in your close and personal connections— everyone from family to friends to lovers. This time a year is all about restoring order and balance in close kinship. 

Ritual: Wear the color green on September 22 to open your heart chakra with the intention of  receiving love in return. Don’t just stop at what you wear either. Order green food or juice to nourish your body, carry a green crystal on you or go for a walk and try to notice as much green as possible before it fades. Connecting with this color helps you feel confident and more secure as you open your heart to an abundance of love.

Gemini 

Let the Universe know you’re open to receiving inspiration on September 22. The Autumn Equinox might just light a fire within. You can expect to get a lot of bright ideas, and the discipline to work on them with the current planetary transits. You’re about to create something wonderful but need the space to do so. 

Ritual: Use the start of fall to physically declutter and energetically cleanse. Burning rose-petal and sage smudge sticks or incense could do wonders, but bells, sprays or sound frequencies work just as well if you need a smoke-free method. Whichever cleansing route you choose, be sure to open all your windows so the stagnant flow has a place to go. Get rid of anything outdated that no longer vibes or serves you. Ritually clean up to invite the new.

Cancer

During the fall you get to align your creative spirit with your home and this lights you up. The Autumn Equinox  can be an abundant time for you indeed Cancer, and offers a chance to call in more love, comfort, or perhaps a new home entirely. Pour your imagination and inspiration into a craft or decorating and watch how magnetic you and your home become to blessings.

Ritual: On September 22, or near this date do some intentional and seasonal decorating. Brew a cup of tea or grab a PSL, put on your favorite playlist and let your creativity take flight. Go one step further with this yearly ritual and give a specific intention to each decoration, i.e. A scarecrow to protect your property or garden. A cinnamon scented wreath to invite financial abundance to your home. You get the picture!

Leo 

The Autonimal Equinox may just bring some peace to your local environment and passion to your home. This is a day to get cozy in your surroundings and build more stability or security. September 22 presents an ideal window to perform any home protection rituals. You can really beef up your energetic defenses, that way you don’t take any unwanted drama or emotions back to your kingdom— so you can focus on obtaining and maintaining abundance. 

Rituals: Whether you hang up a specific charm to keep negative energy at bay or place salt near your entrances fortify your homebase. Make a ceremony out of it. It doesn’t matter if you’re hanging an evil-eye, wreath, cross or other symbol of protection; bless it and fill it with your intention of protection. You can use holy water, palo santo or whatever else you feel called to use to orient your item. 

Virgo 

The final harvest of the year is filled with so much abundance, and your wallet could follow suit. September 22 is an excellently charged energetic day to call in more money to your world. However, you’re logical enough to know it takes more than just a dream to manifest, and you’ll have all motivation to really upgrade your mindset when it comes to finances.

Ritual: On the Autumn Equinox, put together a money bowl and leave it in a sacred but accessible space. Fill a small bowl with rice, coins and cinnamon sticks. Write your intentions down on some whole bay leaves, and stick them in the bowl as well. As you build it, think about what you are trying to manifest, i.e. financial freedom, a promotion or success in business— step into the feeling of obtaining it. Sprinkle a ring of salt around the brim when finished for protection. Recall this feeling when gazing upon your money bowl. 

Libra

Don’t forget that the start of fall also marks the start of your season. This makes the entire autumn, but especially the equinox itself an ideal time to manifest sheer self-confidence, love and drive to chase your dreams. As Libra season and fall kick-off on September 22 do what you can to raise your vibration. Show yourself all the care and adoration in the world. 

Ritual: Wear your favorite outfit, dance your heart out or take a deep and relaxing bath. Pamper yourself with that spa treatment, buy yourself flowers. Write a love letter to yourself, detailing how amazing you are. You’re worth it, make sure you let yourself feel it on this day and abundance is yours for the taking.

Scorpio

Your season falls smack dab in the middle of autumn, meaning that the equinox is a wonderful time to find or regain your inner peace and independence. This time of year is all about letting go of what no longer serves you before embracing what’s new. Around September 22, try to pay close attention to your dreams, as they contain messages from beyond. 

Ritual: Before you lay down to sleep, set the intention that you’ll remember any important phrases or symbols to decipher the meaning. Use an amethyst or moonstone crystal on your nightstand or under your pillow to help with clarity. Keep a journal near your bed to immediately record upon waking. The process of writing down the recollections could help you recall more details. Use the dream messages in your everyday life to step into your true power and toward abundance.

Sagittarius

As a child of late autumn, the start of the season is the best time to really hone in on your ultimate hopes and wishes. To truly call in your desires, some purging or undoing is also needed. Take the time to decide what you want and what you need to let go of. On September 22 perform a little burning and empowerment ritual. 

Ritual: Burn a small piece of paper (in a fire safe container) with what you want to release written on it; be it a job, trait or habit. Perform this with the intention of exchanging what you’re kicking to the curb for what you want to manifest. As you watch it burn to ash, know the replacement will appear just as fast.

Capricorn 

You know you can have it all, Capricorn, but the fall can serve as a nice reminder. Around the Autumn Equinox on September 22, really focus and visualize what you want to achieve. You’ll probably be motivated to start planning, but you should get a bit creative first. This is the perfect time to make a vision board, as the cosmic energy puts a spotlight on your public sector and achieving. Inspirations first, and strategy second.

Ritual: Get cozy, light a seasonal candle, put on some relaxing music and grab your materials. You can use magazine cutouts, printed images, stickers or any other scraps laying around. Piece together words and images that evoke what you’re trying to achieve and get to work creating!  Before you know it you’ll be managing your dreams in real time.  

Aquarius 

Autumn not only brings abundance but can be a powerful time for deep reflection too. Embracing the latter, the need to go within to find the answers will set you on the path to achievement and success. How can you shift your everyday narrative to get you to where you want to be? 

Ritual: On September 22 go for a mindful walk, preferably among nature. No music, or podcast— just your thoughts and the path ahead. Only use your phone to make voice memos or use a pen and notepad to document your insights. This could bring about your next big breakthrough, and lead you right to abundance.  

Pisces

The veil is thin, and you probably feel this more than most. The fall has deep spiritual significance, and this holds especially true for you Pisces. You should treat the Autumn Equinox like a sacred day, one where you start to prioritize connecting with God, spirit and the soul within. Your team of ancestors, angels and spirit guides are readily around and at your disposal— they’re just waiting for you to notice and acknowledge them. 

Ritual: Set aside some time to connect with higher powers on September 22. Do this through any form of divination you feel called to (tarot, tea leaves, etc), meditation or prayer. You can find a calm and sacred place, go out into nature or perform your practice in the comfort of your home. Whichever feels right. Just make sure you’re grounded so you’re ready to communicate. Be open to receiving messages from the divine and your advisors on the other side. This may provide guidance on your path to fulfillment and abundance.  

The Autumn Equinox reminds us that life is a sacred balancing act. One that is about honoring our personal evolution and opening our hearts to gratitude, insight and abundance.
