Lughnasadh (loo-nas-sa) ~Lúnasa ~ Lammas
The Wheel of the Year turns once more.
The harvesting season begins...
Mother Earth is offering her bounty...
What seeds of your personal harvest are you reaping?
The days are getting shorter...
The cool evenings whisper to us that autumn is on its way.
Take time to reflect of your journey since last Samhain...(Late October)...
What have learned...what have you gained...what have you embraced and what have you left behind?
