Beautiful spring will be with us soon in the Northern Hemisphere, bringing with it signs that nature is awakening from her long winter slumber and new life will flourish throughout our countryside… vibrant colours, sweet scents, and songs of love.
Astronomically, the Spring (Vernal) Equinox of 2024 will be 19th March at 04:06 GMT (23:06 EST).
Fact: Equinoxes happen twice a year, this is when the sun is directly above the equator, resulting in equal day/night. Here in the Northern Hemisphere Spring officially arrives and in the Southern Hemisphere, Autumn (Fall).
From mid-February onwards the days will be getting lighter by approximately 3 mins per day up until late April or early May. This means we will have more time to ‘touch grass’ get outside and enjoy those longer days. Reconnect yourself with nature. There is growing evidence that promotes spending time with nature and its positive benefits when suffering from certain mental health disorders.
‘Living in the moment is essential as it reduces the external pressures of everyday living, allowing you to slow down and take in nature’s sensory extravaganza – the fragrant scent of lavender, the warm breeze against your face, the sound of waves crashing against the shore… have you ever looked up and noticed cloud formations and how pretty they can be. These are examples of living in the moment, being at one with the natural beauty that surrounds us and many of us rarely notice. Mother Nature at her best’ Nomadify 2023
Enjoy nature at her best lovely people. Spring, new growth, fresh hopes, new possibilities, transitioning. Make the most of the season of love and rebirth… its a delight, my favourite.
