before the year ends...... Year after year, I experienced different feelings and cycles during seasons in a year..... Winter, spring, summer & fall. I grew up in the tropics for almost a 1/4 century, so seasonal as climate is concern does not really change. Same hours between day and night. Temperature does not change much although we do get rainy seasons. What really signal changes are the festival and celebrations 🎇; and specifically in my culture, it involves certain dishes. Then, moving to the about 30 Deg Latitude (N), where I had experienced a little of the "4 seasons". Initially, I got sick in spring time and came to find out it's just allergy. Those first few years were scary because I rarely get sick. Over many years in that climate/environment, I got acclimatized. I then appreciated the seasonal changes and went through many aspects of preparation as certain season/cycle starts and ends. Now being in 43 deg Lat (N), it deepens my appreciation with notable changes as we approach fall especially where the sun rises and sets. I am more aware now and rightfully so because having to plan for my vegetable garden location and other plants to start my syntropic/permaculture readiness. The other factor is my circadian rhythm changes due to daylight and my body seems to slow down signaling "conserving" energy...... or simply time to rest. It's so true when I look at how nature takes it's own rhythm, where the plants and land prepares for this seasonal cycle. How are you affected by such a cycle? Do you see changes in your overall energy/activity? What about your work or run a business, do you decide to slow down?
