Celebrating the Moods of Autumn: An EarthWise Visual Journey

EarthWise: Bringing together the wisdom of the Earth found in  nature, science, mythology and spirituality

A Season of Change and Transition

Autumn is a season of transition. The season itself is one of movement rather than of being static. There is the slow shift of time from the langour of summer to the bright brittle quiet of winter. In between is autumn.

Autumn is in itself full of changeable moods and scenes. There is the wonderful glorious blaze of autumnal colour, the richness of acorns and nuts on the woodland floor, the hush of days in the first frost, a quiet mist in an alluring forest.

All of these are autumn–and together they make a rich collage of sight, sound, introspection and meaning on an EarthWise journey. Enjoy this visual journey into and through an EarthWise Autumn.

An Invitation into the Woods and the Season

Come deeper into the woods, which beckon and invite a quiet and mysterious exploration.

Lingering Leaves, Lingering Colour in the Midst of Change

Leaves have begun to fall from trees. Soon only the silent silhouette of skeletal trees will mark the woods, a quiet memory of the blazing colours of autumn.

A Blazing Symphony of Colour

Is there anything more beautiful than the riot of colour that comes at the height of autumn? The full blaze of glorious colour celebrates the richness and ripeness of this season of change and transformation. It celebrates the transformation, showing us that change and transformation are often a time of delight and beauty.

Subtle Enchantment in the Forest

The blaze of colour can also become soft and muted. The fallen leaves make an inviting carpet. Soft light hints at the mysteries in the woods in the quiet colours and gentle light of autumn.

Discovering a Living Landscape

The beauty of the colours can come along in the most unexpected shades and places. The entire landscape becomes alive with art and beauty!

The Skies of Winter

All too soon, the days of autumn merge into that of the start of winter. The light shifts, the colour is gone from the trees. The skies become metallic grey and moody. A hush falls over the landscape. Winter is on the way.

We hope you have enjoyed this EarthWise journey through the moods of autumn.
