Happy Michaelmas, darlings! Its time to finish the last bits of harvesting for the year and bed the garden down for the coming cold --dont let these last lovely days trick you into waiting too long... And, just in case you forgot, youre not supposed to pick blackberries after this day, because theyll be too bitter with the summer sun waning. Michaelmas is the feast of strong will, according to Rudolf Steiner, who also said, ...To be able to perceive also when the leaves fade and take on their fall coloring, when the animals creep away — to be able to feel how in the sensible which is dying away, the gleaming, shining, soul-spiritual element arises...how the sensible becomes yellow in order that the spiritual can live in the yellowing as such — to be able to perceive how in the falling of the leaves the ascent of the spirit takes place, how the spiritual is the counter-manifestation of the fading sense-perceptible; this should as a perceptive feeling for the spirit — ensoul the human being in autumn!
