My Top 5 Tips To Welcome In The Fall Beautifully With Astrology… Celebrate the Autumn Equinox and Libra season with these helpful hints and beauty rituals!

Wave goodbye to your golden glow – we’re out of the long stretch of summer and now comes fall…

Mid way through the astrological calendar is Autumn Equinox and Mabon – read more about the astrological significance, here.

This is the very beginning point of Libra Season (September 22nd or 23rd – October 22nd); we can enjoy a shift in energy and a new beginning now – winter is still to come, yet we can embrace slightly cooler vibes across our beauty…

The word equinox is Latin for ‘equal night’, and Libra is the zodiac sign most tied to relationships, balance and equality – ying and yang, the marriage of light and dark.

Day and night are equal but our nights are due to grow longer, so lets embrace Autumn Equinox – or Mabon – and mark the moment!

So, when is autumn equinox?

September’s Equinox is Saturday September 23rd 2023 at 7.50 am BST

What can you do to align with the cosmos, celebrate and make the most of this fresh energy and new start?

BEAUTY FOR THE AUTUMN EQUINOX & MABON

5 Ways To Bring You Into Alignment With The Fall Season…

1. Practice Peace, Partnership, Balance & Get More Sleep!

Make Like Blindfolded Lady Justice With Eye Covers!

With longer nights stretched out before us its time to indulge in more shut eye. I love these pretty masks, filled with 100% mulberry silk floss that help you wake up feeling more refreshed.  

Gorgeous color combinations: Champagne & Chocolate, Plum & Soft Pink, or Silver Blue & Charcoal – make them perfect for Libra Season…

Not only can you use beautiful eye protectors to rest easy, you can take a leaf out of Libra’s book with a considered approach to all exchanges, employing fairness, rationale, impartiality and diplomacy…

Peace of mind brings serenity, which in turn helps us look less anxious, create less stress hormones, wrinkles and toxins that inevitable age us.

It also makes it easier to get a good nights sleep…

2. Pomegranates, Berries, Apples & Pears – Beautiful…

Make the most of the onset of winter with seasonal fruits, flowers and spices in your beauty rituals: apples, pears, pomegranates, pumpkins, blood oranges, grapes, nuts, cinnamon, ginger and honey.

Warm tea is especially soothing on those cool, autumn mornings – I just bought the caffeine free tea from Caudalie, it is SO tasty.

3. Wear A Season-Suitable Scent…

Feminine fragrances are a mainstay during a month governed by Venus – Libra Season – as we become attuned to congeniality, and as such appearances; fashion, beauty, and aesthetics…

Libra is an expert when it comes to social graces, and as such she smells divine – without resorting to overpowering perfumes.

Add depth and sensuality to your aura with a fresh, captivating scent at equinox – use the Libra scents violet, primrose, rosemary and sandalwood…

Flirtatious and fashionable, Fragile Violet is described as a fragrance of equilibrium, with top notes of yellow mandarin, white tea and mulberry, heart notes of violet, lotus and wisteria, and base notes of cedarwood, amber and feather musk…

Unisex ‘Santal 33’ from Le Labo is the brands most popular creation.

Notes of cardamom, iris, violet, ambrox, sandalwood, papyrus, and cedarwood are stunning.

This boutique signature fragrance is ‘ the most ubiquitous scent in fashion’ according to the New York Times, and a cult classic…

You can also introduce uplifting fragrance into your home with potted plants or cut flowers – a beautiful bouquet will remind you of potential growth that’s possible in the last months of the year. Read more about astrology, flowers and fragrance, here.

4. Transition Your Look…

Welcome the darkness and wisdom of winter on its way… 

Now officially Autumn you can steer your look in a more balanced, grown-up direction. Maturity can be expressed in a number of ways, but why not use color?

Shades of Fall include plum, garnet, berry hues, chic neutrals and rich navy.

Sign up for a makeup masterclass!

With the nights growing long you’ll have lots of time to practice a signature style, and more hours to go out wearing it!

5. Create Laughter Lines & Enjoy The Festivities!

It goes without saying that the Autumn Equinox is an awesome excuse for a feast – or candlelit supper. Smile and create laughter lines with friends, which will make you even more beautiful…

If you’re lucky enough to live near a forest, gather beautiful leaves and pinecones from the woodland floor, to decorate creatively, and eat seasonally with the harvest – corn, grains, squash, onions and all types of root vegetables.

Nature speaks to our soul, which is just as good a nourishment as expensive creams and lotions.

Cornucopia is a symbol of abundance and of Mabon. You can incorporate a horn of plenty, or simply know that your table is loaded with enough for all. Generocity of spirit and gratitude are the most attractive qualities! If you don’t usually write one, do pen a gratitiude list…

Go for an astrological theme, like the dinner party here…

+ Make Marriage Magic…

While the first six signs of the zodiac are primarily focused on oneself, the remaining six turn attention towards others, and operating in relation to the world.

Seventh sign of the zodiac, Libra represents awareness of partners, marriage unions and harmonious matrimony. While Scorpio shows us how partnerships are consummated, this sign brings focus to ‘others’.

Long ago, Libra Season was seen as an ideal time for matchmaking, and you can still plan on playing Cupid! Get together with harvest vibes and seat young lovers side by side…

Already coupled up and no time to host a gathering? Take a walk in nature amid those awesome autumn leaves…
