Celebrate October: Creating Magic Without Spells or Sorcery

The most mystical, mysterious time of the year, when the veil between the worlds becomes too thin — so that the most inveterate skeptics shudder, peering into the dark corners. I want to tickle my nerves, to be imbued with the magical October to the fullest.

What can you do in October that is non-magical and not related to psychological and spiritual practices — but, nevertheless, wonderful? This to-do list is for your inspiration!

• Go through old photos with your family and listen to interesting stories about your ancestors
• Try a pumpkin latte
• Hang a wreath of autumn leaves and flowers (artificial or natural) on your door
• Eat a pomegranate
• Experiment with a Ouija board
• Buy warm socks or a scarf made of natural wool
• Create a magical atmosphere with the help of aromas in a diffuser or aroma lamp
• Spend a whole weekend alone, with cake, tea and your favorite collection of horror films
• Wear something orange or orange with black
• Have a fortune-telling bachelorette party with your girlfriends
• Make pumpkin soup
• Do a big autumn cleaning and ruthlessly throw out everything that you don’t use, that is outdated or that you don’t like anymore
• Make a bird feeder
• Sit by the fire
• Go to an abandoned cemetery
• Read at least one book mysticism or horror genre
• Have a candlelit dinner (and not necessarily in company)
• Make a mandala from autumn leaves
• Make mulled wine
• Have a scary story night with friends
• Donate to an animal shelter or nursing home
• Take a walk under the full October moon
