Hello Wild Soul,

How are you as the Summer begins to wane? I know many of you I have spoken to are feeling ready to embrace the colder months to come. While I love the colours, bounty and cosiness that Autumn brings, I find the end of Summer nostalgic, tinged with a little sadness. Another year seems to be galloping by, and the world has been feeling pretty heavy of late.

With the moon waning, we took ourselves off to Dartmoor last week, where we spent a few days climbing tors, letting ourselves get lost in the vastness of the moors and explored beautiful river valleys and woodlands. There is something about exploring (near or far) that immerses us in the moment and opens our eyes again. Connecting with a sense of awe is important respite in challenging times.

Late Summer Magic

Have you noticed how the lowering light becomes more golden at this time of the year? How coolness is ebbing into the edges of the day? I love immersing myself in the colours at this time of year, soaking in the vibrancy and abundance of the land.

As we arrive at the New Moon, I wanted to share these simple rituals with you, perfect to create some time for over the weekend.

The cycles of the Moon

Wild Fen

Each year Earth orbits around the Sun. As the Earth’s axis is tilted, different parts of its surface receive more/less direct rays from the Sun as we move around it. This creates the yearly seasonal cycle here on Earth. The variation of light, warmth and energy impacts all life and as we enter into the Winter season here in the Northern hemisphere, we observe bare, resting trees, animals hibernating and changes to our own energy, mood and focus.

Gemini Season

Wild Fen

The sun has now entered the zodiac sign of Gemini; the third sign of the zodiac year which runs between May 21st and June 21st. The season was well opened by the New Moon in Gemini last night.

Gemini season falls in between Spring and Summer, where much of nature is growing and learning. This sign is often linked with the joys and curiosities of learning and communication. The influence of Gemini’s element air also bring a focus on ideas and thoughts. Gemini is often referred to as ‘the twins’ and can relate to the concept of duality and balance, and at times when two things fall out of balance; play and rest for example conflict may be felt until balance is restored.
