Cónocht an Fhómhair (Autumn Equinox)
"The Autumn Equinox, Cónocht an Fhómhair...symbolis[es the] balance between light and dark as the day and night become equal...
[T]he Autumn Equinox is also closely tied to the harvest season...Fómhar means both ‘autumn’ and ‘harvest’, reflecting the importance of this time for gathering the last crops before winter...
[C]ommunities...celebrate the abundance of the earth by giving thanks, and...through rituals of gratitude.
Offerings of food, drink, and flowers to the land and its spirits...are common, as is taking stock of what has been achieved throughout the year – whether in work, personal growth, or relationships."
