Or have a nice walk to a grocery store and buy a few seasonal fruits and vegetables. If you have a cabin in the country with an orchard or an old apple tree in the backyard, go for a symbolic harvest gathering today.
Selfie with a bunch of leaves? Done! Jumping in big piles of leaves? Done! Insta Story with leaves rustling underfoot? You bet! It’s a perfect time for a walk in the park or in the forest, instagramming like never before. In all possible and impossible shades of orange, red, yellow, brown and green. Leaves are getting pretty and multi-coloured. And the plants get back to their life too. Right until the day her beloved daughter is back again. It’s getting cold and wet, like Demetra’s heart. Nothing grows, days shorten, nights become longer. All these months without Persephone, Demetra mournes.
Right under the ground to her husband's Underworld premises for the next 6 months. They agreed on a compromise: for half a year Persephone lives above the ground with her mother.īut when the Day of Fall comes she has her fall too. Demetra was devastated by her loss and started to pressure Hades to get her daughter back to her. Demetra’s (Goddess of Harvest) daughter Persephone was abducted by Hades (God of Underworld) to become his wife and live with him happily (or not) under the ground.
The same is with the famous pyramids in Latin America.Įven Ancient Greek myths have one about the First Day of Fall. For example, the mysterious Stonehenge of England was constructed thinking of the Sun, equinoxes and solstices. Before the world was united under one calendar system (more or less), ancient people celebrated the Fall Equinox and started fall season from this point.
