From Lydia Wylie-Kellermann's blog post: "This time of year, we delight in the fall Equinox. With each coming day, the nights will grow longer and the days shorter. It is the season when we give ourselves to the teachings of the darkness. We move slower. We listen more deeply to our sense of smell and listen to sounds. The air grows cooler and animals begin to prepare for long sleeps.
Our culture would rather us just keep the light on and the noise machines playing. Keep buying. Keep moving. Keep producing. But may we instead listen to the moon and the stars and the beautiful darkness calling to us a different rhythm – one that embraces the darkness with our very souls."
