Autumn
Harvest and letting go — the phase that is fruitful and falling at once.
Autumn in a dream is the dictionary's image of harvest and letting go at the same time. The phase is fruitful — you bring things in — and it is also the phase in which what you do not bring in falls. The dream often appears around moments that hold both endings and rewards together.
Where you often see it. Leaves on a path. An autumn afternoon when little is happening on the surface. A harvest you are gathering quietly. The dream uses autumn at the moment when a chapter has yielded and the dreamer is asked to decide what to keep.
What it is not. Autumn is not depression or the end of vitality. The dream's autumn is fruitful before it falls.
Related in the dictionary. Read autumn with harvest, leaf, tree, and the colour brown. Pair with winter when the dream wants you to see the next phase.
