This year, Autumn has truly warmed my soul.🍂

There’s still 13 days left of sweet November, but why does it feel like December is knocking at my door? This year, I’m working in my autumn journal through the end of November and won’t begin working in a December journal until the first of the month. Creating a December journal has been kind of tricky. I’m not really interested in a Christmas-themed journal per se and instead I’m focused on creating a journal aligned with the season. But, I’ve found when you don’t make Christmas the absolute focus of December, visually capturing it aesthetically becomes quite difficult. Outside, it still looks a lot like November right now with leaves clinging to trees and temperatures in flux. In contrast, January is stark, snowy, and cold. Through this process, I’ve discovered December is caught in the middle of these two visual opposites, responsible for the enormous transition from autumn to winter.

It’s a relief that I’m nearing the end of my Autumn journal because I’m not sure how much more will actually fit. 😊 And since I’m nearing the end of this journal, that means a new December journal must be on the horizon. I must admit, it’s been a bit difficult making one when I look outside my window and the leaves are still falling from the trees and the air crisp, but not yet cold. But I’m still working on it and there’s a chance for snow on Sunday, so perhaps that will provide a bit of December inspiration. 🌲

Sweet rusty autumn, so earthy and so beautiful.🍁

“It was November—the month of crimson sunsets, parting birds, deep, sad hymns of the sea, passionate wind-songs in the pines. Anne roamed through the pineland alleys in the park and, as she said, let that great sweeping wind blow the fogs out of her soul.”
