September in Pictures

It feels strange to see all the pictures taken in a month. You get a full overview of not only what happened in that month, but also how you feel about what you did. In many ways I see it as a reflective exercise.

Overall, September wizzed by at the speed of light. I see from my pictures that I spent more time at home and glued to my computer. September was beautiful in many ways as I could really feel the seasons change. I think there is something beautiful about the in-between. Not quite Autumn but no longer Summer. In these moments, true magic and transformation happens both within us and in nature. It's a letting go process. That is always scary, isn't it? But as the Seasons change, it's a gentle reminder, a whisper from nature to let go so you can grow into your truth. Free to be who we are at our core, not who we are supposed to be or expected to be.

Once the Autumn fully arrived, I embraced it. September was that month where I was not ready to let go of Summer. Nature had not fully letting go yet. But change was coming. I could see nature's slow process of transformation with each passing day. And I could also feel it inside me. I believe that if we can recognise ourselves in nature, we will be much gentler with ourselves.

Autumn teaches us the power of letting go.

From when I started my new life here this Summer

Since I was a little girl, I loved Autumn the most. I would build forest hideouts, make campfires with flint stones that I found in the ground, and build a mountain of brown leaves that I could jump into. It was always a soft landing. It was also the time where I believed trolls were most active in the forests. I would always imagine them in there, friendly yet hidden.

Here come some moments from my days in September on the beautiful Northwest Coast of Sweden. It has now been four months since I moved into my homestead.
