As we move towards the Autumn Equinox and the Harvest Moon, I’ve been thinking about what we mean when we talk about celebrating our harvest. We are often encouraged to celebrate what we have achieved. The things that look good from the outside. But I’m not sure these are the things we should be celebrating most. We have spent far too long measuring ourselves by what we own, what we achieve, and how our lives...]]></description><link>https://www.daisysbutterfly.com/post/autumn-equinox-harvest-moon-reflection</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6ab28226bb36484c4b0c9ba9</guid><category><![CDATA[Moonology]]></category><pubDate>Tue, 22 Sep 2026 14:17:35 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/522394_b80c6e40425e4c23b17c1ee489c40457~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>daisysbutterfly18</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Join me for the first Moonlit Pause: New Moon in Virgo.]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Moonlit Pause is a free meditation on Zoom that accompanies the journal and creative prompts suggested in this blog.

When the moon hangs in the sky and looks especially beautiful, I feel it again.
