In this ecospiritual meditation inspired by our orbit around the Sun, we find connection and send wishes of loving-kindness and joy to all beings on this sacred Earth. The Sun’s crossing of the celestial equator reminds us to focus on Earth’s Three Green Hearts – the tropical rainforests where the sun will be directly overhead through the days surrounding the Equinox.

Uniting in meditation, we share a vision of the healing of Earth's Three Green Hearts. We build resilience in our community, and set our intensions for the transition to a future where all beings have the opportunity to thrive.
