All the lives we’ve ever lived
and all the lives to be
are full of trees and changing leaves.
Virginia Woolf, To The Lighthouse.
The Autumn Equinox arrives at 9:04 p.m. EDT today:12 hours of day, 12 hours of night, earth in balance, if only briefly.
L'Empire des Lumières - Magritte
The greens of summer acquiesce to autumn’s exuberance. Flowers stop blooming, trees drop their leaves and then everything falls into a deep slumber until reawakened come spring.
“Notice that Autumn is more the season of the soul than of nature.”
-Friedrich NietzscheAutumn is a marker of the inevitable change and loss that are essential for renewal. Indeed:
All the lives we’ve ever lived
and all the lives to be
are full of trees and changing leaves.
