“Now begins the harvest
& the time of reaping,
we shall come rejoicing
bringing in the sheaves”

The harvest season is a time of judgment, for we are called upon to sift through
the things that have grown up during the past half-year, & decide what we will keep
& what we will cut down. We must make choices, we must pass judgment,
& we must act on our choices.
Lammas marks the point where we leave the Garden, & earn our own way, "by the sweat of our brow".
It is the time of coming to maturity, of taking responsibility for our own path.
We select the seeds we plant, & from that we select the fruits we will eventually harvest.
