Rhythms of Magic: October

We will be running a series of blog posts throughout October that all tie in with the energy of the month...

Rhythms of Magic - October

My favourite time of the year and it isn’t just because October includes Samhain…honest! I love the autumn, the crisp fresh air, the crunch of leaves under foot and the beautiful colours of the trees and fields. Oh and of course sitting indoors on a dark evening, curtains closed, sofa, blanket and a good book having just scoffed a big bowl of casserole and dumplings…bliss.

To me this is a time to work on your inner self, a time of hibernation. Take the time out to spend with YOU.

Meditate and work with your divination tools. Take a look at what worked for you over the past twelve months and what didn’t, do a personal MOT check. Take a good look…what is in your reflection?

With the arrival of Samhain comes the thinning of the veil between the worlds, a time to remember those that have passed over and raise a glass to our ancestors.

There is a theme of death at this time of the year.

The last harvest is taken in and the plants start to wither and die but what they are actually doing is taking shelter to conserve and rebuild their energies to store them over the winter so that they are ready for the spring to be reborn.
