In this week’s episode we chat about what it means to wane, and why this part of the cycle is so essential to embrace in the world right now.
Why have we chosen to talk about waning?
Not only is the moon currently waning as this episode goes out, but so is the energy of the season overall: our arrival at the Autumn Equinox marks the noticeable descent into the darker months and the lower energy (or at least more lunar - reflective, introspective) phase of the year
In other ways, though, this part of autumn can actually feel really full and busy (especially for us), and it can be difficult to balance that with the overall sense of slowing and fading - so we thought that tension would make it an interesting idea to explore
What do we chat about?
The ongoing process of waning (rather than a one-time action)
Imagining time in a cyclical rather than linear way - the idea of waning (and waxing) emphasises the ebb and flow that is missing from the usual rigid conceptualisation of time
The important of turning inwards (reflection, introspection)
How the concept of waning helps us both as individuals, and might support you too
