October is imbued with the spirit of the approaching Samhain — the best time to practice magic, perform rituals, and learn new directions in this field.

It is a favorable time to work with subtle energies to better understand yourself and your path, as well as to help others find their way. Yes, cause-and-effect relationships may seem blurry right now, but if you trust your inner voice, everything will unfold in the best way.

To highlight the energies that will guide you throughout the upcoming month, I lay out the Gypsy runes on the Wheel of Ruk and Boler. The spiritual rune of the month defines its transformational mood, while the four elemental runes reveal the flow directed by each element.

🌙 The spiritual essence of the month is defined by the rune “Moon,” whose energies activate our inner magic and help manifest our desires into reality.

This month opens the path to your subconscious, pointing to a connection with the hidden aspects of your personality, with the images of your desires, fears, and aspirations. To engage with this magical power, you must dive into your inner self, surrender to the power of intuition. This will allow you to feel harmony and connection with Higher Forces. Be ready to encounter the most mysterious whirlpools of your perception of the world, wise dreams, and moments of inspiring intuition.

The “Bone” rune of transformation reflects the energies of transitioning into the darker time of the year. October’s currents guide us toward inner changes, the reevaluation of old patterns and ideas. When we realize that old images no longer reflect who we’ve become, we begin the process of finding new forms of self-expression and interaction with the world. This is a time to reassess your relationships, values, and view of life.

Don’t fear changes; they bring growth and development. Analyze the key points of your new system, your new vision of yourself, and determine your place in the world. This process will help you understand how you are connected to others and to the surrounding world. Build new bridges and open up new opportunities!

🔥 Fire 🔥

The “Tree” rune of life reminds us that the source of strength for achieving our main tasks lies within us. Keep the fire of your faith alive; don’t let it be extinguished by doubts or regrets from the past. Step forward boldly, and remind yourself from time to time why and for what reason you chose this path. Some steps may be hard to take, so if doubts and worries overwhelm you, close your eyes and just move forward. Don’t overthink it — simply trust the flow of your journey. It will support and guide you.

Don’t be afraid to explore and experiment in completely unexpected areas of life. Often, the deepest opportunities for self-realization are hidden in places you never dared to look. Open yourself to new experiences and perspectives — perhaps your brightest achievements are waiting for you there.

The “Mother” rune focuses on subtle, soulful interactions with others. So don’t be surprised if, in the middle of autumn, you suddenly crave love. It’s also important to pay attention to your relationships in the context of the connection between parents and children. By reevaluating these relationships, you may learn more about yourself and gain new insights into your maturity and wholeness.

All activity should be balanced with your current resources. If you are exhausted from previous stages of movement, don’t push yourself to the limit just to reach the goal faster. Take breaks, assess your capacities, and though your progress may not be swift, it will be more productive. Taking care of yourself will allow you to maintain your momentum towards your goal, avoiding burnout at work or in your personal growth process.

🌱 Earth 🌱

October invites us to dive into the energies of family and ancestry. What values and principles from your family history do you carry into your own life? What gives you strength and confidence as you move forward?

With the energies of the “Tooth” rune, we delve deep into the core to discover inexhaustible sources of strength and support. Now is the perfect time to explore ancestral matters and family patterns, helping you understand how they shape your identity and how you can use this wisdom for your own growth and development.

Explore your roots, uncover family secrets, and this will help you better understand yourself and become stronger in your journey. Our roots provide us with support, but delving into them can also be a source of new discoveries and opportunities. For this reason, on October 5, I invite you to join the mystical game “Secret Paths.”

Let the magical energies of October breathe new life into your dreams and desires. Believe in yourself, follow your intuition, and greet each day with an open heart and mind. And may the Spirits of the Elements be kind to you! 🚀🌟
