The Spiritual Significance of the Equinox

Sadhguru explains how in the yogic tradition, the equinox is seen as a day when one has the best possibility of transcending the limitations and compulsions of one's physical longings. Shiva is said to have sat as an Ardhanari - half woman and half man, because masculine and feminine are on an even keel on this day.
