This is an excerpt from the book I am working on, tentatively titled “Home Sensibilities”:
“In the cycles of seasons, the Earth element represents late summer and the gathering of harvests. It is a time of abundance, and when the harvest is successful, it signifies the ability to nurture and sustain life during the winter.
The work we have done now comes to a place of inner reflection and contemplation; an inner harvest. Earth element is also receptive and nurturing. The energy of Earth, the highest expression of yin, is a gathering in of all that is nurturing and sustaining. It represents female energy and specifically the nurturing energy of the mother archetype.”
