Autumn Queen ￨ Enchantress Archetype

Maiden, Mother, and Crone… these are the stages of womanhood we’ve come to know and embody. They represent the spring, summer, and winter, but what about autumn? How have we left this most beautiful season out of the conversation? Enter the Enchantress, also known as the Autumn Queen! This archetype represents women in their mid-forties through their mid-sixties. This is an incredibly rich and fruitful phase of life that should not be overlooked. As we wander through the spring woodland, invite the Enchantress out to play!  What am I reading?She Made Herself a Monster by Anna Kovatchevahttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780063436374Eat to Thrive During Menopause: Managing Your Symptoms with Nourishing Foods by Jenn Salub Huberhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781523528257https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat’s playing on repeat?Wild Wild West by the Escape Club What’s for dinner? Avocado Tofu Chickpea SaladIngredients:Marinated Tofu1 teaspoon white miso paste2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil1 clove garlic mincedJuice of 1 lemon1 tbsp apple cider vinegar1 tbsp nutritional yeast1 tsp dry basil1/2 tsp dry oregano1/2 tsp salt or more to taste1 block extra firm or super firm tofu (if extra firm, press and drain)Salad1, 15oz can of chickpeas, rinsed and drainedGreens of choice 1 cup cucumbers 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved1/4 red onion, finely diced1 avocado diced Fresh herbs of your choice Instructions:In a jar, add in 2 tablespoons water and miso paste.
