Welcome back to White Rose of Avalon, my Darlings. Happy October! For today’s blog post, I am sharing a poem about the magick of this most witchy month.
A Bright Hello to October
by Maranda Wabik
A bright hello to October
Month of magick and enchantment
Height of the Season of the Witch
Time to listen to the old song by Donovan
And the cover by Lana del Ray, as well
My heart begins to swell
The joy of the Autumnal bliss
Is truly hard to miss
Leaves of fiery hues dance in the air
On this Autumnal day so fair
Magick and sorcery crackle
As thrills shoot along the spine
Oh, this is but a single month
But one that is so divine
Autumn is a season of liminality
And October is the height
As the Veil is thin,
And the Otherworld draws you in
So, yes, a bright hello to October!

Maranda, this is absolutely enchanting! You’ve perfectly captured the magical essence of October—that delicious shiver of liminality when the Veil thins and the Otherworld feels so close. I love the nod to Donovan’s “Season of the Witch” and Lana Del Rey’s cover; it sets the perfect witchy mood. The imagery of fiery leaves dancing and magick crackling in the air gave me chills (the good kind!). Thank you for putting into words what so many of us feel during this divine month. A bright hello to October, indeed! 🍂🔮✨
