The cool wind on Samhain reminds us of the coming darkness as it shifts the fallen leaves. Wind magic is amazing to do during this time of year. Do a ceremony asking the shifting winds to not only take away the negative thoughts and feeling from the past year but ask them to also bring you new positive things. Make an offering to the air element using fallen leaves. Or simply just take time to appreciate the wind.

🦇Animal associations: bats, black cats, owls, spiders( and other creepy bugs), crows, rats

things to pay attention to during a venus retrograde

your partner! this is a big one here as venus is the planet of relationships, particularly romantic and sensual ones. make sure you’re ready for all issues to surface and be resolved.

your finances! venus is also the planet of material wealth. this isn’t a time to fool around with your money. be more frugal and know the worth of what you’re buying and selling.

your diet! venus is indulgence and she loves her sweets. keep a look out to what you’re putting into your body as it’s really important here for natives for potential glandular issues.

business dealings! venus isn’t just romantic relationships, it’s all partnerships, so make sure if you have a business partner, that you’re ready for any issues to arise.

art and music! this is a good time for artists to really look back and refine their sense of style, be cautious of new things in this area, and if you’re an artist, be careful for any issues that may arise concerning your art.

crushes and exes! past crushes or love interests or exes may spring back up on you at this time. this is not to worry you, but rather resolve issues/feelings that weren’t resolved in the beginning.

neck and lower back! venus has prescence over these two parts of the body. make sure your kidneys are doing alright and your throat is nice and silky. may be a time for sore throats and kidney stones/infections.

“Don’t worry”

Virgo ears: “Your problems are insignificant and I don’t see why anybody needs to care”
