Here's the #Spectra link to the #AutumnEquinox short video
After the Equinox we enter the #TimeOfSpirits leading into #winter when we honour, remember, spend time with loved ones no longer with us physically.

In the North we celebrate the beginning of the slow return of #Saule #Sun but don't forget to give #Darkness its due: life, #regeneration begins in the darkness of blood, soil, womb, heart, brain! Darkness is #rest #nest Take time to repose and #reflect and appreciate the long quiet nights.

I finally got my #AutumnEquinox stuff all done 😆 The #blog post has thoughts on traditional #Latvian harvest celebrations and the Time of Spirits which begins then.
There are more photos, 4 videos, all links to YouTube and #Spectra in the blog, and I'll link the videos in the thread here too.

Autumn Equinox Apjumības: an Altar to Bounty, Colour, Remembrance of Loss and a Twin God

  I mentioned in my previous post that Autumn Equinox is a significant time for me. Firstly, the season itself- living in a northerly climat...

I don't think of this (or any) primordial Goddess as a literal character, but rather the embodiment of life essence, of the reality of this Earth--life, death, mineral and hydrological cycles, weather, seasons etc.
The symbolism is meant to reinforce *our* connection to -everything! We are not separate from nature, we are part of it.
Here's another version of the altar, less legible text..lol
