Autumn guides us into a time of reflection. Whereas Spring brings renewal, and Summer brings growth, Autumn stirs up a need to reflect and to let go. Autumn, or Fall, also guides you to look ahead, make connections, and prepare for the future, for Winter.
Reflecting on the Past
As you reflect on the past and look ahead, expand your awareness of yourself in the universe. Draw in conscious awareness of nature with its seasons and cycles of life. When you attune to nature’s life source, you can find renewal. As you witness nature’s cycles, you can learn to let go of the past. It may not be easy, but life has no promise of being easy. As you let go of the past, look to the future. Consider how you will prepare for the future.
Looking to the Future
As you look to the future, focus on having compassion, gratitude, non-judgment, and wisdom. Limit your doubts, negative thoughts, and fears. Seek to learn from life’s challenges, to use your creativity, to reach for the higher good in yourself and in others.
As you look to the future, also seek to fulfill your dreams. Dig deep into those dreams, the ones sparked by the life-force energy in the universe. The same energy sparked the nature surrounding you. Know you can connect with the eternal creative energy. It’s all around you. Connect to it and do it.
