All Hallows Month Is Ideal For Self-Reflection
I did a reading for a new client yesterday, and during the session, I kept hearing the word “roots.” I told her, “You should get back to your roots.” She confirmed right away that she’d been thinking about moving back to her hometown to be closer to her family and friends.
That got me thinking about how October is often a time to think about where we really belong in life and in the world. This season, we’re thinking about place, direction, and home. It is the ideal time to reflect on whether it’s maybe time for a change, or if we should return to our roots.
It also got me thinking more about my spiritual roots and ancestry. October is a time to think about our physical lives and the spiritual truths, values, and principles that have been passed down to us. Are we still following those principles? Are we living in a way that reflects the wisdom of those who came before us? This is the kind of reflection October brings out, encouraging us to reconnect with our roots and the bigger picture of where we’re headed.
October, also known as the All Hallows Month, has always had a special kind of magic about it. It has always been a big deal in many spiritual traditions, because it is seen as a kind of in-between month.
This month is a time when the physical and spiritual worlds feel closer to each other, synchronicities multiply, and messages from the unseen find their way more easily into our lives. It’s no coincidence that so many cultures honor the dead and celebrate the mysteries of life and death during this season.
Embrace The Transformative Power Of October
October is one of the most transformative months for anyone who works with intuition, energy, or spiritual guidance. As the leaves fall and the air begins to cool, the spiritual atmosphere seems to ‘heat up.’
This is the season of shadow and light coexisting, where transformation becomes not just possible, but necessary.
Nature herself models this beautifully. Trees release what no longer serves them without resistance. The days grow shorter, urging us inward. And the whispers from the other side grow louder, inviting us to deepen our trust in the unseen.
The veil between the physical and spiritual worlds is said to be thinner this time of year, making it easier to receive messages, notice synchronicities, and tap into your own inner knowing.
October is an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and share our wisdom with others who may be feeling the energetic shifts.
This belief is not new. Across many cultures, October has long been seen as a threshold month. It is considered a liminal time when the unseen draws closer to the seen.
In Celtic and Pagan traditions, the end of October mark Samhain, the great harvest festival and the turning of the year. It is known as a sacred doorway between worlds, when the living can more easily connect with ancestors and the spirit realm. Fires are lit to honor the departed, and divination rituals practiced to glimpse what lay ahead.
Mercury Retrograde: A Time To Revisit, Reflect And Realign
Has it felt like the universe has been playing a cosmic prank on you lately? Maybe your phone or computer has started acting up, or your travel plans have taken an unexpected turn, or maybe every conversation feels like a confusing game of telephone?
You’re not imagining any it, and you’re definitely not alone. Blame it on the astrological phenomenon known as Mercury Retrograde.
Mercury began its current retrograde motion in the sign of Leo on July 18, 2025. This phase will last for 24 days, ending on August 11, 2025, with Mercury still positioned in Leo as it returns to direct motion.
But this energetic shift doesn’t stop there. After Mercury stations direct, we enter the shadow period, also known as the post-retrograde shadow or retroshade. This phase usually lasts for about two more weeks, meaning the lingering effects of the current retrograde may continue through August 25, 2025.
Mercury retrograde occurs three, and occasionally four, times each year due to the planet’s swift orbit around the Sun. As the innermost planet, Mercury completes this journey in just 88 Earth days.
During its retrograde phase, Mercury appears to move backward in the sky from our earthly perspective, creating a temporary disruption in its usual energetic influence. Because it is the planet that rules communication, travel, and information, its retrograde motion often stirs up confusion, delays, and misunderstandings in these areas of life.
April Showers Bring May, And June Flowers!
The old saying, “April showers bring May flowers,” reminds us that difficult periods can lead to growth and beauty.
For many, April this year truly felt like an emotional downpour, both internally and externally. It was a time of letting go and confronting old wounds or patterns that no longer served a purpose.
While the skies may not have cleared overnight, we are now entering a new chapter. As we move through late May and look ahead to June, a powerful shift is underway—one that brings hope, clarity, and blooming potential.
April is dominated by Aries season and the intensity of its fiery energy. Ruled by Mars, Aries tends to stir things up, fueling restlessness, frustration, and even conflict. This year, many of us felt an even stronger inner drive than usual to move forward, yet we also encountered lingering emotional blocks or unusual external resistance. For many, it was a month of both internal and external battles where old stories resurfaced to be healed or released.
Taurus season followed, overlapping the end of April and the first few weeks of May. Its slower, earthbound rhythm helped us begin to stabilize — but not without first confronting the emotional residue left behind.
Taurus energy urged us to get grounded, reconnect with our values, and take things one step at a time. This helped to soothe some of the turbulence, but it also highlighted areas of life in which we have been too rigid, stuck, or overly attached to our comfort zones.
Manifest Your Best Life With Psychic Revelations
Manifesting is the art of turning your thoughts into reality — a metaphysical process that requires more than wishful thinking. It can only occur when your energy is fully aligned with your desires.
But what if you find yourself struggling to bring your dreams to life, no matter how much effort you put into visualization and affirmation? The answer often lies in unseen energetic blocks or imbalances that hinder the manifestation process.
Psychic readings are a powerful tool to uncover these hidden barriers, providing deeper insight into your personal energy field, and offering solutions to realign with your highest potential.
Many people assume that if their manifestations are not working, they are simply not trying hard enough or that their desires are out of reach. In many cases, however, the real problem is energetic misalignment rather than lack of effort.
Unresolved emotions, limiting beliefs, karmic influences, and unconscious fears can all create blockages that prevent your desires from fully materializing.
These hidden obstacles can silently disrupt your manifestation process, causing frustration and stagnation despite your best efforts.
Manifestation is not just about thinking positively — it’s about embodying the frequency of your desires, clearing resistance, and stepping into a state of true receptivity.
Psychic readings can help identify and clear these blockages, allowing you to shift your energy and restore alignment with your highest good and true purpose. By tuning into your energy field, a skilled psychic can reveal underlying patterns, past traumas, or subconscious fears that may be interfering with your ability to manifest.
How Thought Forms Can Influence Your Psychic Reading
One of the most overlooked factors that can influence a psychic reading is the presence of thought forms — energetic constructs shaped by the power of thought and feeling.
These mental and emotional influences can subtly alter the information received in a reading, sometimes distorting messages or amplifying certain aspects of the client’s energy field.
Understanding thought forms and their role in psychic perception is therefore essential for both psychics and clients seeking clarity and accuracy.
But what exactly are “thought forms?” Thought forms are energetic structures created by focused intention, intense emotion, and repetitive or obsessive thinking. These energy patterns exist within our personal energy field and subtly shape our daily experiences and interactions with others.
The modern understanding of thought forms has deep roots in various esoteric and mystical traditions as the metaphysical principle that “thoughts are things” — meaning that mental energy has a tangible presence in our daily existence and a direct influence on reality.
This concept can be traced back to various ancient spiritual traditions, including Hinduism and Buddhism, where the mind is believed to shape one’s karmic path and manifest life experiences. It is even found in biblical teachings, such as the Sermon on the Mount, where Jesus spoke about the importance of inner thoughts and attitudes, not just outward actions. For example, Jesus taught that harboring anger or lustful thoughts are morally equivalent to committing murder or adultery (Matthew 5:21-28).
The Mystical Year Of The Yin Wood Snake
As we settle into 2025, the energy of the Yin Wood Snake begins to take shape, revealing its unique rhythm and influence.
While the excitement of the Chinese Lunar New Year celebrations may have faded, the true essence of the year is beginning to unfold.
Now is the perfect time to align with the energies of the Wood Snake, harness its mystical power, and set a clear, intentional path for the months ahead.
The Year of the Wood Snake brings a harmonious fusion of intuition, mystery and steady growth.
The Snake, known for its wisdom and transformation, merges with the nurturing and grounding essence of the Wood element this year, fostering patience, adaptability, and a deep connection to our spiritual and emotional roots.
Unlike the impulsive Fire Snake or the analytical Metal Snake, the Wood Snake encourages thoughtful progress and long-term vision, making 2025 an ideal year for meaningful evolution.
In many cultures, the Snake symbolizes rebirth, wisdom and mystery. Its ability to shed its skin represents the release of outdated beliefs, limitations, and habits, clearing the way for renewal. This year invites you to embrace transformation, trust your intuition, and align with the subtle yet powerful energy of the Snake as you enter a year of profound personal and spiritual growth.
