As the peak of our summer drifts away, the endless afternoons are coming to an end.  Beginning the gentle turn inward is happening around us as the flowers turn to seed and drop onto the ground with endurance for the long winter ahead, and the promise of another summer.  Planting the seeds for our future hopes and dreams is appopriate throughout the year in different ways.  The fall seeds are long lasting, determined and likely will not sprout for many months, if they are to survive.  Considering this, enjoy the slowly lengthening night as a time to develop your seeds for how you will utilize your energy next summer!  While you may not know quite what they are or how they will develop, the intention and deliberation will surely sprout when the time is right.
