The underlying themes of Halloween (Samhain, All Soul’s, etc.) which come largely from ancient European cultures, are synonymous with the shifts in nature, and the changes of the seasons – themes with which we are all deeply connected. I think October’s holidays are what propel the energy of change and transition. Symbolism of October Holidays and Traditions If you feel my vibe, read on for more cool insights into the month of October. As a transition-junkie, signs and symbolism of October is a metamorphosis mecca that I embrace and totally adore. Climates, winds shift, chills enter the air, leaves begin to transform in mind-blowing colors, days are becoming shorter (at least in the northern hemisphere) – all these changes can be so intoxicating for many folks. The whole month of October lends itself to the presence and energy of potential. It’s the very idea of changes (whether in costumes or enjoying different sensations that can be only found this time of year) that makes the symbolism of October all about change, transition, and differences. And even if you’re not a kid anymore…those days of costumes, tricks and treats are undeniably magical. There is anticipation waiting within every tangy bite of fresh-baked apple pie. There is a special kind of energy crouching around every frosted pumpkin. Not only are these changes becoming very apparent seasonally during October, transitions are also felt on an energetic, spiritual and physical level. This month in the year is all about change, transition and big shifts.
