Introspective

By Thomas F. O'Neill

Wow, October is now here, and in our Northern Hemisphere, the days are flush with falling leaves, cooling weather, and growing anticipation for the holiday season. October's tenth month by our Gregorian calendar shares a root with octopus and octagon—the Latin octo and Greek okto, meaning “eight.” It is an indication of October's position in the early Roman calendar.


October is a month where the saying” What goes around comes around” rings true, with karmic spiritual energy of correcting wrongs and doing right. October augers in the true spirit of the Tiger, so find the light within you, find the spirit to take on all adversaries and illnesses, and consciously wish yourself a better, healthier, happier life.


October is the perfect month for manifesting your wants and desires. You will reap rewards if you actively pursue your dreams and enjoy the journey with all its obstacles. The three laws of spiritual manifestation are good Intentions, do no harm, and unbiased passion.


Your Karma this month is but a reflection of your spiritual morals. If you dislike something within you, don’t disown it, for the disowned causes chaos. Embrace it, cleanse it, purify it, and turn its previous energies of negativity into positivity.


We can also take this time to put Summer in our rearview mirror because the fall season is again upon us. For many people, the months of autumn symbolize change. Like the falling leaves from the trees, life must take a new course by shedding off the old to usher in the new. This part of the season’s cycle stretches to winter, which spiritual gurus say provides time for people to absorb and accept the ongoing change in one’s inner self. Like the cycles of death and rebirth, leaves will eventually grow back into branches, and flowers will once again set to bloom.


Soon, autumn colors will fade and be replaced by the bleak tone of chilly winter. Be that as it may, the world is always ready to welcome the changes and cycles of the season because these are the principles on which life basically rests.


Always with love,
Thomas F O'Neill
