I love everything about fall – the cooler weather, the changing colors, warm sweaters and hot cocoa! I love the shortened days, and the longer nights. Even more than winter, fall is a time of reflection for me. I look back to summer, and all of the projects that I had going. Did the seeds of spring come to life? Did they find purpose, and direction? What do I need to do now to bring them to a close?

This is a time of year when I bring things together, tie them up nicely, and put them in their place. That which needs finishing I either finish or release (if it is no longer serving me well). I look at where I am focusing my attention, and whether this is in alignment with my purpose and my path in this lifetime.

I look forward to cooking and baking, to spending time reading, and generally creating a little cocoon around myself.

What is fall for you? Where is your attention? Where in the cycle of the year are you?
