October has long been a month I loved and feared. So much that was bad in my life happened in October, and I used to have terrible "October nightmares" as a result. But good things happened, too, and it was the month I was born (but also feel it's the month I will one day die in). I love Autumn and Autumn foods and Halloween and October parties...Here's a poem I wrote years ago. It's on the long side but it explains it perfectly (IMO), though it includes mentioning the terrible October nightmares I used to suffer which I haven't suffered for the last couple of years. October in My Soul Sometimes I wake up the monsters just beyond my vision reaching, grasping, clawing, my nerves burning in terror of the past resurrected Even worse are those times I awaken feeling empty feeling nothing thinking life is loss for I've lost those I love and myself and yet if I hadn't I'd have lost that which I am and those that I love now All that is life requires sacrifice And beside my lover tonight I dream of two foxes loving in spring flowers that ends in Autumn one fox killed by merciless huntsmen as one fox heals alone through winter Spring reveals a new lover as the fox dances in joy but asks: will the huntsmen return? I awaken and realize I am that fox. October is the month I love and dread the most with its parties and nightmares with its joyful laughter in my life and the piercing screams that shatter my past and my sleep I admire the colorful dying world, love the hint of chill in the air but dread the tragedy I sense riding in the wind October is all around me Joy and Terror dance within me As it has been so shall it be again the seasons turn the passions burn stoking me sweetly burning me to ashes October reminds me that the joys of life are not without its toll The death and loss are our constant companions to life and love As we wander through a cornucopia of hazy mirages and shadowy images Life and Death, Day and Night in eternal dance The living surrounded by ghosts of the pasts and the future Ghosts calling my name from within my haunted soul I was born in October and surely I will die then, too From the witch's cauldron we all sprang and to the cauldron shall we all return the cauldron of the One we all can't help but to revere and fear The witch of my cauldron is named October. And as I join the witch in laughter, the nightmares spring from the shadows within me haunting me by the knowledge that they have their real life counterparts as these echoes of the past once again pounce I hold on, I hold on for I have felt their fangs before and yet I remain visible and invisible scars my badges my pride, my shame I know morning will come, frosty and promising and if it doesn't then the horrors will no longer have me to haunt dying with me or leaving me to find other game Though I wonder then, should I die if I'd ever haunt others just as others have haunted me? Or would I finally be able to truly rest the nightmares no more, my dance and my mosh ended? --B. Jane Cochran, 10-23-2006 IP: Logged |

I adore the time from late September to Christmas...I keep out all year round a few decorations from Samhain (Halloween) and Christmas...As of late I have scared the crap out of someone, someone who has hangups about Halloween.... Still my stuff remains...There is a little bit of mystique in all of us! IP: Logged |

I remember how during my childhood they'd broadcast scary movies every Sat-Sun in preparation for Halloween, even starting as early as August. Nowadays, nothing. Shame. ------------------ "Through the wind and the rain, she stands hard as a stone." Martina McBride IP: Logged |

i love october, it has my favorite holiday....halloween! which occurs in the sign of scorpio ------------------ I once saw a sign that said "sin is death" but if "all deaths are suicide (linda goodman)" and suicide is sin, then shouldnt "death is sin" be more appropriate? when organic is used to describe food then you know we have come to a dark age in history IP: Logged |

No. I'm watching Don Juan de Marco (I needed something light). I've never been one to swoon over Johnny Depp, but I'm finding him charming in this movie. IP: Logged |

We just watched Scream 4. It's been a long time since I've seen the others, but I don't remember them being quite so bloody - or have I just blocked it out? I was only nineteen when the first one came out. I guessed who it was, but not right away.
