 Blessed #Harvest Moon.

Back to ancient times when communities relied on agriculture for survival, the full moon closest to the fall equinox, the Harvest Moon symbolises hope & abundance. Farmers would work tirelessly during the day & continue under the light of the moon, maximising their harvest before winter’s arrival. This full moon served as a reminder of the interconnectedness between humans & nature, highlighting the cyclical nature of life & the importance of honoring the Earth’s bounty.

“An excavation is underway at Drumadoon on the Isle of Arran after the site of a possible #Neolithic cursus monument was earlier detected by an aerial laser scan.

The monuments are believed to have been used for processions, possibly linked to the honouring of the dead, with the possible Drumadoon cursus reaching a vantage point over the Machrie Moor stone circle.” #archaeology
