The Autumn Equinox
The Autumn Equinox: Celebrating the Harvest | Ellen Jackson
2 posts | 1 read
In autumn, daylight begins to decrease, the weather grows colder, and the harvest begins to wither. Just as Americans today celebrate Thanksgiving, peoples of many cultures brighten this season of increasing darkness with festivals to give thanks for the harvest bounty that will sustain them through the long winter to come. THE AUTUMN EQUINOX offers some fascinating descriptions of how peoples of the past celebrated the harvest season. Features include a Native American harvest tale, and some hands-on activities, among them instructions for making Chinese Moon Cakes, an African Harvest Drum, and a model of a Jewish Sukkah.

#FallTreasures

When I looked up #FallEquinox for inspiration, it said it was the “equilibrium of day & night representing the light and darkness in our lives” so I picked 4 books from my Goodreads with day, night, light, & dark in the title & also a favorite, Good Morning Midnight that seems like a good balance too. 😉

Eggs Oh how creative are you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Love it💗💗 3y
