Autumn Equinox Rituals for Manifesting Balance


1. Harvest Gratitude Altar


Create a simple altar with seasonal item, apples, dried leaves, acorns, alongside your beloved crystals.


Light a candle and recite what you're grateful for: relationships, career, health or even the little joys. This ritual helps ground your energy and open your heart.


2. Balance Meditation


Sit comfortably with a half-lit candle. Hold a grounding crystal like smoky quartz, closing your eyes and breathing deeply into the centre of your chest.


Imagine balancing dark and light energies within you, surrendering what no longer serves, while welcoming fresh potential.


3. Moonwater & Crystal Charging


Fill a glass jug with fresh rainwater (if you’re lucky in UK weather!) or filtered water. Place a clear quartz point, green aventurine and citrine around it.


Leave out overnight to soak in the equinox moonlight. Use this “moonwater” the following morning to cleanse your crystals or mist your space, amplifying clarity and abundance.


Crystals Perfect for Autumn Equinox Rituals


  • Clear Quartz: The Master Healer, amplifies intentions and balances energies.


  • Green Aventurine: Attracts growth, fresh starts, and harmonious change.


  • Citrine: Sparks joy, confidence, and the warm glow of new opportunity.


  • Red Jasper: Guides courage and stabilises your emotional foundations.


Pro Tip: Arrange them on your altar in a semi-circle around your candle or moonwater jug. This layout channels a flow of balance and support for your intentions.
