i want to, just not sure how to synch it up with the actual equinox because i need to consider my work schedule as well. I don't want my hardest days to be the ones that i'm working 8 stressful hours on my feet. I had the most success following through to the 10th day by doing the MC at this time of year. The time i tried in late September i got too cold and depressed and just had to go eat some soup. That was Day 1!

It should be easier for me now that i've been on a raw diet for nearly a year. Any suggestions on what i should eat the day or two before to make it easier to deal with not eating at all? Just juice?

    i have just started the master cleanse..am on day five, and plan to go for 12 days, or until monday...in my experience the first 3 days are the hardest, so maybe it would be good to start the cleanse asap, if you want to do it for the equinox, otherwise..maybe just wait until you are feeling more prepared..a new or full moon would be as good as an equinox. also i have found that the best time to do the cleanse is spring/early summer, when the body is already going into a natural detox mode after the winter, i would think that doing the mc during fall/winter would be counter-intuitive to the body's natural flow of storing and conserving energy for the winter..good luck, mostly determination, proper elimination, and a positive outlook are all you need..

      My partner Vani and I have been doing the MC on the Vernal Equinox for the past 3 years. Today is our 8th day. I have also heard the MC referred to as the SC (spring cleanse) and many believe that the Vernal Equinox is the best natural time to do it. I would have to agree. Spring is a time for cleaning, rebirth, renewal, review, reassessment, change and the MC provides the perfect opportunity to do these things.

      I hope your cleanse is going well.

        I thought I'd bump this thread up to the top.

        I'm going to start my 2nd MC on 3/21, right around the start of the Vernal Equinox. Nandi's post sums up my reasons for wanting to start it at this time.

        Anyone else out there thinking of starting around the same time. Would be great to have a cyber-buddy for support!

          hey ya'll, I suddenly had the impulse this week to start a master cleanse... this thread confirms why. Monday the 23rd is the day I'll be starting, I may continue it indefinitely since I have the sense my body has been needing this for a long time. Right now I'm slowly declining my caloric intake and moving to liquids and mostly raw; as I have tried this before but haven't mentally prepared enough.
          Hopefully the equinox will be a good day to solidify my commitment.
          I'd be happy to support any of you who are also embarking on the cleanse around this time!
