By October, summer has faded like an aged postcard. Labor Day has come and gone and a new season welcomed. Children and parents are now acclimated to the back-to-school routine. Department stores have finished their end-of-season sales and started hinting about Santa.
Autumn has always been my favorite time of year, as I like everything about it: weather, leaves, football, sweaters and harvest. Fall also reminds me of new beginnings, brought to life by school bells ringing again after their summer hiatus. Despite January being the start of the calendar, I equate October to all things new. New grade. New classes. New learnings.
Now, at age 57, I look to this special month as the time for me to assimilate more about my life’s reengineered direction that started more than 11 years ago. Working with my spiritual abilities, I choose to be even more positive about myself and what the future will bring. In turn, I will attract more beneficial happenings and contacts. And, like I tell my psychic medium consultation clients, I, “gotta do the work.”
And, it was four years ago in October that I relocated to Santa Barbara, a place where I’ve made great connections and entertained more opportunities. I can’t imagine not having made the decision to move here. It feels right.
So, I salute October – the doorway to Autumn – for always inspiring me in my life’s journey.
Hmmm. Craving roasted pumpkin seeds now!
Love and light,
Tony
October has always represented a season of new opportunities for me.
I love that October is for new opportunities and a new beginning to learning. Thank you for giving a new perspective on the fall season for me. Lovingly, Kim
Even as a little boy, autumn always spoke to me. Love to you!
October is my favorite month!!! Not just because it’s my birthday month (which it is), but because of all the things you’ve mentioned. I do miss being up north and experiencing it though….with the leaves 🍁 changing and the cool temps. Here in Alabama we have 100° temps, but we do get to see the southern snow in October (Cotton).
The Alabama heatwave is crazy. As a kid growing up there, I never remember it being that hot in October!
