Contexto cultural

The phrase is often used during 'Höstterminen' (autumn term) to describe the feeling when everyone returns from the long summer holiday and the cities become busy again. Using this phrase in a meeting is a sign of 'framåtanda' (ambition/forward-thinking). It signals that you are not just planning, but executing. Swedes use this for nature's cycles, especially 'vårblomningen' (spring blooming). It shows a deep connection to the seasons. In 'Allsvenskan' (the Swedish football league), commentators use this constantly to describe the intensity of a match.
