Autumn by Indigo Holistic
Autumn
There’s an abundance of wealth to be gathered up in the autumn breeze that refresh’s and embraces the season ahead. As the light fades from endless balmy nights of the summer, we prepare once more for the bronze flutters of reflection and intention moving through the final months of the year.
As a summer spirit, every part of me resists that transition as we are taken into the depths of hibernation but where there is change there is also opportunities to connect, allowing us to welcome a feast of energies to migrate us through till spring.
The autumn equinox offers some guidance and understanding but it’s mostly up to you how you wish to engage with everything on offer……………
The harvest season is associated with abundance and prosperity, so now is a good time to assess all aspects of your life, challenging yourself to look beyond the surface and expand your search into your inner soul.
Reflect on what has flowed for you this year and what requires attention? Notice how your body and mind reacts as you remind yourself of memories from the year that has passed. Take your time to capture each moment before moving on to the next, and listen carefully! Sometimes we miss our inner messages by hearing instead of listening, take your time to really connect with yourself and see what comes up.
Have the courage to let go of anything that no longer serves a purpose in your life, release it however seems fit, on a woodland walk, in a hand-written letter, during a wild swim, it doesn’t matter how, just that it no longer has the capacity to manifest within you. As you release welcome in the golden colour of autumn lights, let them fill you right up so you glow.
Ignite your lower chakras with your breath, using deep breathing techniques, awakening the embers of warmth in your belly, and reignite that burning fire of passion for life. Set those intentions, make them clear, and don’t forget to challenge yourself.
Use obsidian, smokey quartz and tourmaline to invest in your seasonal connection, all these crystals promote grounding and dispel negative energy. Bloodstone is a must during the colder weather also, helping to ward off colds and flu.
Then have a cuppa (preferably herbal or green), sit back and enjoy!
