“The Symbolism of Fall: Finding the Beauty of Letting Go

“Autumn teaches us the beauty of letting go. Growth requires release - it’s what the trees do”

— ka’ala

Reflecting on autumn often evokes a sense of warmth and comfort, conjuring images of cozy sweaters, delicious pies, and warm bonfires.

However, the deeper symbolic meanings of autumn extend far beyond these familiar comforts, intertwining with the essence of human existence. This beautiful season serves as a powerful reminder of Mother Nature’s profound influence on our lives.

Autumn embodies the significance of letting go and the transient nature of life. It teaches us that embracing change is essential for personal growth and healing. Just as the trees shed their leaves, we too must release what no longer serves us to move forward, grow, and heal.

Additionally, autumn is a season of harvest, symbolizing abundance, gratitude, and reflection. It encourages us to appreciate the fruits of our labor and to reflect on our journey, fostering a sense of gratitude for the present moment.

This is a great opportunity to embrace the slower pace of the season. While day and night are the same lengths during autumn, we can also find balance prioritizing self-care, physical activities (exercise, yoga, nature), mental activities (reading, taking a bath, meditating), and emotional (reflect on your emotions and life to understand yourself better). 

Take this time to live in the moment and release the worry and anxiety of what is the next step.
