Autumn is the angel in the Sepulcher, which points out the emptiness of winter, but whose eyes promise us the resurrection of spring.
It is the Magician's magic wand, which makes us see that everything is illusion or vanity, as it indicates, at the same time, that cane that carries the Madman that we all carry inside.
But also, Autumn is the grace of the Muse and Poetry, because, as Álvaro Cunqueiro (1) used to say, will not man be the tree that gives the flowers of melancholy?
And if so, he added, when these flowers sprout, does not the man realize that he has flowered in autumn, on the verge of the cold winter wind?.
The Autumn: an archetype on which to meditate.
