[if you can read this line, you're sitting too close] the equinox is coming up in a month, more or less, and i was wondering if anyone out in net.land has ideas/suggestions for personal celebrations/ceremonies/rituals. most religions have some type of "holy-day" at this time (e.g., Rosh Hoshannah), (also some info was contained in some net.nlang.celt postings re: Stonehenge) the obvious is the harvest ceremony. i'm interested in other traditions, so send personal/ethnic variations. also coming up in a few months is the half-year cycle change from goddess to god-king (warm to cold), and the wiccan new year. anybody want to share ideas? we all know that god/dess only lives if you celebrate. God is dead.

Why celebrate the autumnal equinox? (don't throw the question back at me; I want to why you are interested)
