Autumn: a time for contemplation

For me, fall is a time of contemplation though it usually begins early, mid-to-late August and continues to around mid-November. This is a time to draw in as the days shorten; in days of old, the harvest was made in preparation for winter, thus is our own harvest within.

The year is coming to a close and all that we have thought, sought, acted on, received, given and produced is accumulated upon the soul and so with it we should review, give thanks, keep what is good and cast away that which was not as we go into the dark of the seasons to ready ourselves for a new year.

Google Dictonary defines contemplation as such:

con·tem·pla·tion, kän(t)əmˈplāSH(ə), noun

the action of looking thoughtfully at something for a long time.

deep reflective thought.

the state of being thought about or planned.

Contemplation is a natural process of the soul to which we should devote ample time in consideration of our thoughts, actions and deeds, our desires and commitments and to where we are placing our focus and time. With regular contemplation time even daily, we are able to more clearly see the path of our Divine purpose. As contemplation time is important daily, even more so is it important at the close of the year. Autumn brings the falling of leaves, the birds flying south, and the ever-changing attributes of nature with which we are one. We should ask our self if we have indeed been acting as we should, if we have given all that we are able, if we have done the work we are here to do as well as to contemplate our oneness with nature and All that Is though the Spirit of the Creator.

Take the time this autumn to reflect on all that is good and wise, heartfelt and loving in your life. Refresh and revive through the art of contemplation. Give thanks and be of gratitude for all that you have and all that you are.

 Get your journey on! Your soul-journey.
