When I went out tonight to close the chicken house gate, the air smelled different than it has for so long- damp, earthy, fecund.. autumn-like. The sense of calm descends as the days move into September and the dark falls a bit quicker each evening. The grass and leaves are wet with dew in the mornings now. We've had rain in my area, enough to lessen the fire risk. It almost feels "normal". Of course it's not and the thoughts of coming summers are sinister and heavy. But for now, the land is peaceful here as we wait for what winter will bring.

My wee girls and the wilder wee girls happily co-existing.

Crescent moon is hanging low in the west. Frog song is drifting over from the swamp. The air is cool but not chill. The lake and forest ready for Bealtaine.

Spring equinox traditions with a touch of modern. I am inspired, as always by Gather Victoria.
