autumn
秋 centers on the season of autumn, the time of harvest and cooling weather.
秋 combines 禾 (grain) and 火 (fire), traditionally explained as the season when grain is harvested and fields are burned after the harvest.
Grain 禾 and fire 火 together suggest autumn: the grain is ripe and the fields are burned after harvest.
For シュウ, imagine a shoe stepping on fallen autumn leaves: shoe -> シュウ, and the crunch of leaves underfoot.
