I love the Fall; it brings this restless feeling of change, the coming end to the current year, and the time for preservation. For me, Fall is also a time of rebirth.

According to them.us: The Moon is vindictive to you this season. Having lavished goodwill upon Gemini, it immediately forms cranky square aspects with major planets once it enters your sign. Though friendly with Uranus and Neptune during its three-day visit, it stubs up uncooperatively against luck, communication, romance, regeneration, and the whole waking world represented by the Sun. Odds are you will not feel overwhelmingly positive at the turn of the third week in October, but what the hell! At least it’s a cinematic-feelin’ season to indulge in some moodiness.

You need to be particularly careful around the Full Moon in Aries. Other signs will be haplessly transforming into werewolves after making out with strangers at pre-Halloween parties, but not you! With Lilith in your sign fueling your most monstrous impulses, anyone who gets too close is likely to end up with their face eaten off Jennifer Check-style. If they survive the mauling, they might even become a were-Cancer.

I make no promises about my mood in October. But I want to share the awesome pics I took over the last two days. I took a hike along the Mississippi River. I am taking the next week off, and I plan to take significantly more pictures; I can’t wait to share them all with you.
