october forecast
these readings are timeless. Trust what resonates and allow yourself to let go of what doesn’t.
Ace of Swords is here and the energy for October is all about truthful communication. This applies to the individual and the collective, which means, you’re being asked to not just communicate truthfully, but also to prepare to have some truths revealed to you.
This may not be something hugely revelational, but you may be on the receiving end of some painful news or feedback. The trick here is to understand that these moments of discomfort have the potential to be a portal into a new reality.
a time for humility and self-reflection
How do you respond to criticism? How does defensiveness or the denial of someone else's experience make you feel more powerful, and how is that impacting your ability to evolve and develop humility?
October is asking for humility. Honesty. Knight of Cups is showing up to let you know that when you ease into your truth, when you are able to face yourself honestly from a neutral stance, you receive the most nurturing energy as a thank you gift.
This month isn't about rushing forward into new opportunities; it's about taking a step back and asking yourself: what do you really want? If you could imagine that all of your financial needs were taken care of, what kind of life do you want to live? Sitting with the absolute truth of this answer is essential, and may surprise you.
truth through experience
I can hear you wondering: how do I connect with my truth? Yes, it's a vague and hard-to-grasp concept. There is no doubt about that. But Wheel of Fortune is spinning in your favour, so you don't have to actively seek out ways to figure out what you really want. The universe is giving you lots of options in October. Think of it as a selection box… you're getting little tasters throughout the month, different energies, people, spaces, and activities that may feel quite random or out of your regular schedule. Don't question these; just aim to be fully present in them so you can observe how your body and mind react.
Perhaps you'll find a new hobby that makes career dreams seem less important, or an area of the park that creates a feeling of peace you want to ripple out into your family life. Connect with the energies that are passing through you in October, note when you feel drained, excited, in the flow—these are where you find your truth and they can act as a pathway towards your future.
alignment and awakening
By the end of October you're going to start feeling the energy of The Lovers card. Some of you are going to have mystical experiences or perhaps even a full-blown, no-going-back awakening. Either way, the energy of complete and utter alignment with the universe is going to be in your aura and asking to be felt.
What you learn from this experience is that all you seek comes from within, that the energy you create inside yourself is directly connected to the life you manifest on the outside. This doesn't mean that you are to blame. It means you are more powerful than you realise. You're always manifesting, always, always.
By the end of the month you may not have a step-by-step plan to 'success', but you will have a crystal-clear image in your mind of how you want your life to feel.
the act of being
The task this month is about BEING. Not about working, having, taking, going –– just BEING a human body and mind. Ace of Wands is saying getting into this state of BEING is much easier when you do something creative.
Whether that's doodling, knitting, gardening… even reading can take you into that space of relaxed but uninterrupted focus. Don't see any of these creative acts as time-wasting; they are absolutely essential to your spiritual development because of the energetic state they take you into. Within that space, you reconnect with your power, come face to face with your soul, and shift from the unknown to the knowing.
Love you,
Fiona
