what's new Web of Change
Autumn's shiny imprint leaves splashes of vibrancy all over urban streets filled with rhythm and smoke from Labor Day barbecues, dance parties, jack-o-lanterns, and school children. This is a time to make room for transition, as to honor the fall equinox. For many, September and October is an important time of reflection and action. In September, there is the celebration of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah in preparation for Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. The final days of Ramadan came to a close at the beginning of the month. And the International Day of Peace was celebrated on the twenty-first, as we move towards a more sustainable and harmonious planet. In October, we observe Indigenous People's Day, All Hallow's Eve and, in the higher latitudes, we set our clocks back one hour to mark Daylight Savings Time. Each year, the sun crosses the plane of the equator away from the northern hemisphere, making day and night of equal length. We'd like to invite you to focus on Balance and what that concept means to you. Utilize the symbolic energies of the equinox to aid you along your personal journey. Allow it to inspire the motivation you need to manifest a sustainable, just and loving world.
