Equinox brooch

Equinox, moon and astronomy brooch in silver and labradorite

The equinox — that moment of celestial harmony when day and night meet in an ephemeral embrace — gently tilts the world into a symphony of temporal balance. Twice a year, this remarkable astronomical event marks the transition between seasons, reminding us of the eternal cosmic dance that shapes our existence.

In many ancient cultures, the equinox was a sacred threshold. Among the Persians, the spring equinox heralded Nowruz, the New Year — a celebration of renewal and returning light. In Celtic traditions, the autumn equinox ushered in the season of harvest, a time of reckoning, learning, and gratitude. Everywhere, the equinox stands as a passage: between light and shadow, between what begins and what ends.

The "Equinox" brooch captures this transformative energy, this boundary between the known and the unknown, between the radiant brilliance of day and the mesmerizing mystery of night. Crafted in sterling silver and labradorite, it becomes an ode to the cosmos — each detail whispering an infinite story.

Set within a rectangle with softly curved corners, radiant triangular patterns evoke both the sun’s power and the myriad stars scattered across the celestial vault. At the heart of this cosmic composition lies a labradorite cabochon, shimmering with shifting hues — sky grey, deep green, luminous blue — like a mirror of the heavens. Known as a stone of transformation, labradorite has long been used by shamans and healers as a talisman for thresholds — protective, revealing, and deeply attuned to subtle realms.

A line of small engraved circles divides the brooch in two, symbolizing the fine axis of balance — the celestial equator, or the ecliptic — where the movements of heavenly bodies are momentarily in equilibrium. On either side of this delicate border, two crescent moons stand watch, echoing the eternal duality of existence, the complementarity of light and dark, and the quiet promise nestled in each oscillation of time.

Thus, the "Equinox" brooch embodies the very essence of transition — the subtle balance of cosmic forces governing our world. It is an invitation to contemplate the fleeting beauty of equinox, to attune ourselves to the rhythms of the sky, and to celebrate the infinite magic of each new step in our earthly journey.

Wearing this brooch is a way of affirming your connection to cosmic cycles, honoring moments of inner balance, and welcoming with grace the phases of transformation — whether spiritual, seasonal, or emotional. It is to embrace the light, to accept the shadow, and to remember that each passage opens the door to new awareness.
