Remembering that this time of year isn't just about netherworld creatures reminding us of mortality, misfortune, evil. It is also a time of taking in, gathering ripe crops to get through winter, working with fellow laborers or alone with private thoughts. A thankful, receiving, contemplative time of year. And a very beautiful one.
