Maybe it's the potent full moons on the 1st and 31st. The fact that we've seen so many of our favorite activities and events cancelled makes it feel even more important to savour the splendor of the season as much as possible. Daily walks around my neighborhood have given me an increased awareness of the gradual shifts in nature. Mornings are chilly now. As I write this, the mid-day sun is shining bright after the morning rain. Soon, these warm, golden afternoons will be gone. Each day I can drink in the sunshine, I am thankful.
My little gothic heart loves the idea of "every day is Halloween", but honestly nothing compares to the magic of October! A silver lining in 2020 is the fact that I have been able to spend more time at home. I definitely plan on infusing this month with lots of witchery, old horror movies, and fall baking.
During the dark half of the year, I find myself drawn to spend more time working with the tarot and journaling. Another bonus of this season is that all the office and school supplies are on clearance. This is typically when I stock up on pens and start new journals. Another big project I'm working on this month is a scrapbook style BoS (in addition to my written one). Over the years, I have saved so many recipes, poems, spells, and pictures that are inspiring to me and I figured now was the time to either make something out of it all, or get rid of the clutter.
This month, I'm using The Vampire Tarot by Nathalie Hertz. I love the art style!
Wishing you a magickal October <3
