Vine

Vine (September 2 - September 29)

"The grape (Vitis vinifera L.) is a vine growing as long as 115 feet, in open woodlands and along the edges of forests, but most commonly seen today in cultivation, as the source of wine, grape juice, and the grape juice concentrate that is so widely used as a sweetener. European grapes are extensively cultivated in North America, especially in the southwest, and an industry and an agricultural discipline are devoted to their care and the production of wine. Grapes are in the Grape family (Vitaceae)."

After the frenzied clearing activity of the last month, this month seems strangely quiet. Even though storms are passing through, there's an underlying sense of overall peace. I haven't started the woodworking as yet - doesn't seem the right time somehow. Seems like a time to listen to the wind and drink the rain...

Vines are part of what connects the plants in the wood and create a forest rather than a collection of individual plants. The underlying root systems are another part. Fungus spores and seeds are another part. Intertwining branches another.

After the frenzied clearing activity of the last month, the latter part of this month seemed strangely quiet. Even though storms are passing through, there's an underlying sense of overall peace. In fact, the constant motion and dance of the storms create the sense of balance, and the rain and swishing of wind in branches are a song accompanying the dance. I haven't started the woodworking as yet - doesn't seem the right time somehow. Seems like a time to listen to the wind and drink the rain...
