October

This is a relatively quiet month, although Mercury turns retrograde at the end of it, suggesting we prepare for that by buying whatever--especially of a mechanical nature we might need early in the month. It is also good to set aside projects to be finished during the 3 weeks of Mercury’s retrograde motion. The harvest Moon on the 6th suggests we acknowledge our harvests and rejoice in them. The New Moon on the 22nd helps us plant the symbolic seeds for the next. Days to be mindful include the 23rd and the 28th, days to enjoy a boost include the 22nd, the 27th, and the 30th.
