As we enter a new month we have a new mission and it is the harvest, the gathering up, processing, and storing of food for the upcoming winter. Until the birth of grocery stores, refrigeration, and freezing, this was the focus at this time of the year, and I think we should bring some of that back. We have lost touch with the natural rhythm of life and have traded convenience for congruence with nature. Don’t get me wrong, I love modern conveniences but if you know me you know that I do enjoy more traditional methods of food preparation and this is a time when I harvest my garden’s bounty, can, freeze, and prepare my food for winter, and begin to think about cooler temperatures and warmer clothes. As we enter September we break free from the intense retrograde activity of the last weeks of August, but we have our assignments to clean up, clear out, restore, and restock our energy. September’s theme is convergence as these energies come together and we have yet another opportunity to assess our ascension path from a new angle, working from the desired outcome back to the present. There is a futuristic note to this month’s 7 vibe and multi-tasking is going to get us where we want to be. Let’s discuss it in the September Energy report.
This is the beginning of the season that I truly enjoy with its cooler temperatures during the day and especially at night, as the leaves change color and the sky turns that brilliant blue that you only see at this time of the year. September begins harvest season as farmers and gardeners reap the bounty of their efforts during the summer. If you have ever worked on the farm, you know that autumn is a busy season as you rush to harvest before the weather makes it difficult or ruins your crops.
The September Energy Report is sponsored by Energy Purpose & Soul and the monthly energy toolkit. Your essential resource for navigating the sometimes difficult and challenging energies of these ascension pathways. Each Monthly Energy Toolkit contains a detailed report on the month’s energies with additional insights on the energy themes and how to use them to your best advantage. You also receive an energy activation with a guided meditation, themed wallpapers for your desktop and phone, two clarifying calls each month with Jennifer where you can ask questions and a month-end spiritual Saturday community call where you can connect with other members in the Energy Purpose & Soul Community. It’s the resource you need each month for peace of mind and heart, empowered intention, and aligning with the energies of that month’s energies in the best and most beneficial way.
This is our gathering time, the time to bring in the harvest and with the harvest comes the winnowing, where we separate the wheat from the chaff, what we want to take with us on the next part of our journey and what is no longer relevant or resonant. And if you’re a gardener like me, it’s time to can, freeze, and preserve the bounty of your garden. While I enjoy modern conveniences and the availability of grocery stores, the state of the food industry and my own thrifty nature means I mostly make my own food and stock up now.
September is for action with an eye on both the past and the future, taking stock of where we have come from with an equally discerning eye on where we are going next. We’re preparing for the future as we are simultaneously winding down the past.
So this is not a month for solitude, solitary contemplation, meditation, or spending too much time reviewing the past, in spite of September’s retrogrades and 7 vibe. This is a month for the future, opening new pathways, and considering other options, and for looking at what we have been creating on our life path. Even with a hefty slate of retrograde action, September is a month to take action and to be part of the action, creating our own action as we embrace our power and empowerment and light our own path.
September is a 7 vibration which is the number of the seeker so many astrologers say it’s a time for introspection, solitude, and contemplation. And I disagree strongly. To be honest, I am tired of being told to contemplate, rest, go inward, and stop every month. As an Aries this goes against my nature but just as many astrologers tell you to avoid doing anything while Mercury is retrograde, that aspect encompasses up to 39 weeks a year.
There are only 52 weeks in a year. Does this mean that I have only 13 weeks a year to get stuff done? Poppycock or bollocks as my UK friends would say. In France we would say ‘n’importe quoi’. Let’s take a new look at 7 as the number of the harvest and future directed action.
