At the Equinox
September 7- 29, 2024

At the Equinox includes ceremonial objects and assemblage that reflect upon some time-honored traditions and spirituality of the Fall Equinox, a universally acknowledged season when the sun crosses the equator going from north to south. It represents completion, harvest, and preparation for the dark nights and cold days of winter. Peoples and cultures that have maintained a strong connection with the earth have recognized the equinox as one of the four moments of the sun—the four directions or cardinal points. It is the season of adulthood and the fulfillment of one’s purpose; the acceptance of becoming an elder where many spiritual traditions share stories, traditions, meanings and teachings; and imparting what we know and value ourselves as individuals and a community. Cultural and spiritual aesthetics can be a window into universal themes that acknowledge our original teachers and the Earth and all sentient beings who dwell within it.
