Welcome to October 2024.

 

October is for Libra, an air sign. 

 

Friendly, compassionate, and gentle. Influenced by Venus, romantic love is in the air. 

 

Libra is also a 50/50 person weighing the pros and cons, fairness, and reciprocity. A good partner with socials skills, and leadership abilities. 

 

 

Fall Colors are beginning to show, the green with yellows, oranges, and reds. The cool chill is in the air. The wind begins to blow. 

 

Time to rake up the leaves. Shut the sprinklers down. Bring in the last of the harvest. 

 

In Colorado the fall leaf drives through the mountains is an anticipated activity. 

 

I Shave participated in many May Pole Dances and they are a great celebration with food and the drums 

 

 

 

Witches, ghosts, and goblins - the latests movie heros preparing for the 1 night of Halloween or Trick or Treat. This day has evolved since my childhood day, there are promoted events for children to attend rather than walking the neighborhood. 

 

Scary haunted houses, corn stalk mazes, and scary movies are all around. Why do we want to be scared. 

 

Samhain, the Gaelic festival, the end of Harvest and the beginning of darkness. A time to speak with the dead, ancient burial mounds open as a portal to Otherworld. Bonfires light the dark nights. The veil between the living and dead is at its thinnest. Divination is active.
