Autumn Equinox Day

When day and night finally agree to share the sky… Japan calls it 秋分の日 (Shūbun no Hi).

It’s more than just a holiday. It’s a pause… a breath between light and dark, past and present, work and rest.
It’s family gathered around steaming bowls, laughter over mushrooms and chestnuts, the sweetness of おはぎ (Ohagi) — sticky rice and red beans that are said to keep even evil spirits away. Imagine that… dessert as your bodyguard! 💫

This is a day when we honor ancestors who silently bless us, when balance reminds us that life isn’t about winning the race — it’s about harmony. 🌸

And honestly… in a world where politics argue 24/7, isn’t it magical that the universe itself shows us how to share 12 hours each, without drama?

So here’s my little film — part humor, part heart, part reflection.
May it remind you to slow down, eat sweet rice, hold your loved ones close, and let light and dark dance together — just like the sky does today. 🌗

🙏💖 Wishing you all a peaceful, balanced, and soul-warming Autumnal Equinox Day.
