On this equinox, let your heart restore your balance


​
Happy Equinox, wherever you are in the world!

One of the enduring themes of every equinox is balance.

For me, it’s always a helpful reminder because, although my intention is to stay balanced as best as possible, I don’t always succeed.

And so I’m grateful the equinox comes around twice a year. Seeing it coming up on the calendar always makes me reflect on how deeply balanced we were as Lemurians.

Our concept of "balanced" back then encompassed so much more than simple dualities like yin-yang, work-life, or positive-negative.

As Lemurians, our feminine and masculine energies were very balanced, but not as opposites. They were balanced with a third aspect—the heart—which formed a stable trinity.

We also strived for equilibrium between all four energy bodies—physical, emotional, mental and spiritual—again with our heart as the center point.

And we were keenly aware of the balance between our physical self and our higher (non-physical) self. And what do you reckon was the third element in that balancing act?

Once again, the heart.

In Lemurian society, the heart was the center of everything, and balance on every level began there.

As you enjoy the energies of the equinox today, remember that you have the ability to create greater balance in any area of your life. And your heart is the key.

Take a few deep breaths, focus on your heart as the center of who you are, and gently ask your heart:

“Where have I slipped out of balance?”

“What small thing can I do to bring more balance into my experience?”

Or simply set your intention to become more aware of where greater balance is needed in your life.

Then allow your heart to answer you. The guidance you receive will often be simpler than you expect.

Trust your heart.

Wishing you a blessed, balanced equinox,
David

For years I asked the big questions. What's my purpose? Why am I here? What's my mission in life? I would spend hours in metaphysical bookshops, hoping a title would jump out at me and give me an answer. I went to spiritual seminars and private readings. All the while, I was looking outside of me for the answer. Then a piece of Lemurian wisdom turned my whole search around. I want to share it with you, because it might do for you what it did for me. But fair warning: it starts with something...

Every year, I feel the energy shift on October 1st. Each calendar month has its own vibration, and the move from September to October is often the most noticeable one of the year. This year, I’m expecting it to feel even stronger. Here's why. According to Lemurian Numerology, October is a "1" month (1+0=1). It's the month of creation, genesis and new beginnings. If you were following me back in January, I explained that 2026 is a "1" year: the first year of a brand-new nine-year cycle. So,...

If you’re a healer, have you ever tried to pin down exactly what's missing in your healing work? Maybe you've told yourself it's confidence. Or more practice. Or a totally new modality. Maybe you've wondered if it's a level of spiritual development you haven't yet reached. In nearly 20 years of teaching Lemurian Healing, I've watched student after student search for that missing piece, whether they're just starting out or already have years of client work behind them. And the answer is rarely...
