Technically yesterday was the first day of fall...not the Fall, but the Autumnal Equinox (which ironically falls on September 22 and 23). But most people glaze over when you say, "Autumnal Equinox" and brighten up when you say, "The fall."
I imagine most people will glaze over at my less than veiled imagery of the Fall from Grace (when Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and committed the original sin). But as AI says, in a broader religious sense the "Fall" can be seen as a separation from the a divine or perfect state, a loss of innocence, or the the consequence of defying a divine command (which some people seem to think is Trump).
Bottom line, the fall makes for pretty cool t-shirt designs whether you get the symbolism or not. As I've said before, I throw the pearls out there, whether you make a necklace out of them is up to you.
I suppose that doesn't mean anything to most people either.
