The month of October 2025 challenges us to “rise again” amidst the acceleration of a shape-shifting reality. Nine is the number of mastery over mystery, and our best friend and companion for the remainder of the year is a calm and cozy relationship with our own Subtle Body. Otherwise, the level of information overload and nervous system distress can create a zombie-like effect in our movement through the world. Going through the motions of life with zero connective sensitivity is not a safe way to travel. Let’s look towards choosing a better path and enjoying the journey.
The number 10 of October represents the themes of personal excellence, authority and control, the nervous system, achievement and radiance, and a healthy dose of self-respect! When you dress well and look sharp, it helps to support the Radiant Body, which is the domain of the number 10. This radiance gives you an edge over the environments, and naturally causes others to approach you with respect. Then, when you reflect back the same energy with which you are presenting yourself, you are ten steps ahead of the game towards effective communication.
And effective communication is what it is all about right now, as the increase of incendiary assault through words and posture has risen to an epic level. Who’s shouting the loudest does not win an argument, it just leaves someone else’s ears hurting as they walk away, potentially plotting revenge. Beware of what I call the “silent sulking energy.” It is the caldron of malcontent, stewing with misperceptions that become wrought iron reality in another’s mind. The overall number for this year, number 9, requires us to develop a heightened sensitivity and awareness so we can gracefully navigate an ever-changing emotional landscape. Rolling back the Time Machine, there was a popular TV series in the 1970’s called “Kung Fu.” In the opening montage of classic Kung Fu training, the young disciple would be tested in his martial arts skills. My favorite moment was when he would step swiftly and delicately across a floor that was covered with rice paper. One wrong move, one misstep of pressure with his foot, and he could reveal his presence, potentially allowing for a vulnerability.
Do we have this level of awareness, or are we clumsy with our words and actions? Are we unwittingly sending the wrong signals, and wondering why things get messy or off-course? These can be tough questions to ask oneself, and yet an honest self-reckoning can save you from a host of headaches later on. And this is so important right now, yes, this red-hot minute, as other people’s needs are beginning to amplify.
Know what you can and cannot do, and make no promise, commitment, or even a suggestion of coming through for someone if you are not rock-solid sure of it. Otherwise, there will be such a blame-fest that you will wonder how they could ever get so weird. (Yes, they can.)
Number 10 represents the nervous system, and because of the stress within the collective psyche, many will be drawn to stimulants to try and keep up with things. We all have our different ways, and I would suggest allowing yourself that one good strong cup of organic Sumatra coffee or Green Matcha tea in the morning, and hold the line there. Mid-afternoon, don’t get lured into the Choco-Chunga triple espresso 36 ounce rocket brew, because you won’t be able to handle the crash five hours later.
Instead, nourish yourself with beverages like ginger tea, celery juice, or lemon water with a dash of honey. Both ginger and celery directly support the nervous system, and lemon is a natural
cleanser for the liver. Also, make sure you are getting enough fiber in your diet. A healthful alternative to late night snacking is to have a bowl of organic Oat Bran cereal, along with your favorite kind of milk. You can pour extra honey on the cereal to give it a more dessert-like experience. This really works by the way, one of my personal favorites.
Number 10 represents the theme of “All or Nothing,” and we will be witnessing this dynamic throughout the month. In the negative polarity, 10 can be like a loose cannon, wildly reacting and overly aggressive. Number 10 is also the archetype of the Warrior, and as I am writing this forecast there are military movements being initiated throughout the world. If there was ever a time to pray for peace it is now, as the overall frustration in the world can lead to a tunnel-vision mentality. The sentiment of, “I have been patient long enough, I almost don’t care what the fallout might be, I am boldly moving forward for me, myself, and I.” Number 10 can be selfish in the negative polarity. If you are dealing with this in your personal life, be careful not to stand in the way of a runaway train. Many domestic violence situations can be avoided by removing yourself from the space. Larger decisions connected to the distress can be worked out at another time, preferably over the phone. One of my favorite spiritual quotes is, “When the environments let you know that you are no longer sacred there, it’s time to go.”
Let’s focus on some upbeat themes for the month, as there are a few! We have a small handful of lucky days, and they are the 8th, 17th, and 26th. In opposition are the 10th, 19th, and 28th, which are not good negotiating days. Don’t plan the board meeting or try to buy a car on these days, as there is little to be found in the emotional spare change pocket.
We are all becoming more sensitive, and if we relate to our own Subtle Body energy we will always have the inside edge. Everyone has a Subtle Body, which is a non-physical energetic field. It is that part of ourself that is in tune with the softness, subtlety, and sophistication of life. Someone with a weak Subtle Body is impatient, crass, and potentially lost in a dream world. People who are excessively into “gaming” (sitting at a computer screen for hours, lost in a fantasy world), weaken their Subtle Body by living in a non-reality. This experience can often extend into social situations, or even a lack of social skills. Parents, watch out for your children in these times; the capture of their consciousness is not a good thing.
We need some powerful medicine right now, so we can rise above the fray and live in the positive polarity of the number 10. One of your best bets this month is to practice the “Balance Your Projection with Your Intention” meditation. This practice is said to “create a mental equilibrium so that our expression will be consistent with our intention.” Priceless.
It is important to acknowledge that we are currently living in extraordinary times. There was a hard shift in the year 2001, and we are now experiencing another hard shift in 2025. What we previously could take for granted as a standard of decency and a level playing field for all no longer exists. At times it’s like a bad movie you can’t turn off. This makes it all the more important to have a solid spiritual practice, have friends and community you can lean into, and know that no one has enough fingers to plug up the dam. In one of my favorite movie scenes from “Walk the Line,” Reese Witherspoon’s character is talking to Johnny Cash, and she says, “I am not gonna be that little Dutch boy with my finger in the dam no more.” None of us wants to feel as if we are holding forth in a space of tremendous pressure or impending doom. This drains the nervous system and can lead to mental health issues.
Get your world right, get yourself squared away, and hold the line when your Subtle Body says, “Wait, hold up, this is not for you. Respect yourself, say ‘No’.”
Charming times are still ahead for us, and within the magic of the number 9 there is always a way to soothe the Soul and connect with our better Angels. Allow yourself to fall into the softness of the cozy world you create for yourself, and accept the gentle invitation of your Guardian Angels as they clear the path before you. It’s going to be all right.
