We reap what we have sowed at this time of the year, when the sun is still hot but we are entering the liminal energy of autumn.
I am trying to work more closely with the energies that already surround me.
For that reason, I am working with seasonal, monthly, and lunar energies.
If you are like me, and trying to work with the energy around us instead of against it, I hope that these correspondences will help you in that endeavor.
In the end, tuning our spells and rituals to be appropriate for the season we are in can only make our magick stronger.
And isn’t that exactly what we all want?
