S12 / E5: Gather

In this week’s episode we chat about gathering, the continuation of harvest season, and how / why we might welcome in a more reflective month.

Why have we chosen to talk about gathering?

• It’s the guiding word for September in our Rewilding Wheel framework

• There is a strong association with the harvest theme that continues from August into September (and even October) - ‘gathering’ from the land

• We might also think of ‘gathering in’ after the drifting of summer - reintegrating, realigning, reconnecting with our rhythms and routines

What do we chat about?

• Gathering as a way to help us ground and re-centre

• Gathering as an act of recalibration; seeking wholeness again after the dissolving that can happen during the summer months

• How the Weaver archetype encourages us to consider where our lives or our sense of self have ‘come loose’ or become knotted, and how we might work towards the process of re-weaving or untangling

• Coming back to self, and actively, intentionally engaging in this process
