***** Location: Europa

Autumn Melancholy, Autumn Solitude ... There are many words for it.

Autumn evokes certain feelings as melancholie, solitude & world sickness...

Rilke wrote in one of his poems:

Herbst ...
wer jetzt kein Haus hat
baut sich keines mehr,
wer jetzt allein ist,
wird es lange bleiben ....


Autumn ...
He who does not have a home
Will not built one any more
He who is now alone
Will be so for a long time...

Texas

for us here in texas, after a brutal summer, the coming of autumn is a joyful thing. one friend wrote me this week that 'fall makes living in texas possible'.

yet the fogs of autumn do inspire solitude, whether or not one feels melancholy. it feels to me that fog is in some way the home of my spirit.

i have noticed on several years, that on the two days seven days on either side of the winter solstice (december 14 and december 28) that there is always a faint lavender fog. i have seen it on no other days of the year but these two. maybe you would like to watch for these lavender fogs this year, on the days seven days removed from the winter solstice in your hemisphere.

this early morning lavender fog has to be an 'earth tipping in its orbit'phenomena.

ohne die Wildenten
