I’ve been feeling nostalgic, somewhat sad and emotionally spent. I’ve been wondering why. My mind has been working trying to figure this out. I found a source, browsing through the net that may explain why.
The following resonates with my soul. I feel a change a’coming.
The autumn equinox marks the arrival of the season of fall, traditionally seen as a period of changes leading to the dark of winter. Autumn is actually the beginning of the cycle. An author write “the dynamics of the fall of the year have the sweep of a great symphony or an epic poem.”
Here are three topics to think about
~BALANCING DARKNESS WITH LIGHT~
On the autumn equinox, day and night are of equal length. This signals the need to balance light and darkness within us.
~LETTING GO~
As we watch leaves fluttering to the ground in the fall, we are reminded that nature’s cycles are mirrored in our lives. Autumn is a time for letting go and releasing things that have been a burden.
~ACKNOWLEDGING IMPERMANENCE~
Autumn reminds us of the impermanence of everything. We have experienced the budding of life in spring and the flowerings and profusions of summer. Now the leaves fall and bare branches remind us of the fleeting nature of all things.
