![]() ![]() (And as a total side note, I’ve also since discovered that my life purpose numerology is a series of repeating 3s, so perhaps I intuitively knew this would be an important year for me). I learned about the power of the number 33, and was kind of excited to see how magickal and powerful I would be by age 33. Since I had discovered magick and self-development in my early 20s, I was observing how my life seemed to improve as I got older – Contrary to the toxic societal conditioning that I’d fed into growing up. I knew by the time I was 24 that I was slowly becoming “more 30.” And by the time I was 27 I was actually looking forward to my 30s in a way. Sometimes in people’s lives, there’s an abrupt ‘death’ of a version of themeselves when something suddenly forces them to pivot… But other times, we have plenty of warning that an era is gradually coming to an end, and it’s up to us to make peace with it and prepare for the change. While it’s been somewhat of a gradual change over the course of the past few years, this year in particular stands out as the true “end” of something and the start of a new era in my life.

It definitely feels like I’ve gone through an “ego death,” of some kind, where I’ve watched parts of myself die to clear the way for new experiences. I’ve experienced a lot of the theme of death in the past few years. My three favorite themes to focus on this time of year are DEATH, ANCESTORS and DARKNESS. Mexico celebrates the Day of the Dead, which emphasizes not the fear factor, but the honoring of those loved ones who have passed out of this world and on to the next. The modern adaptation is Halloween, a pop culture holiday in which we toy with ideas of what humans are most afraid of. In Christian times, the church adapted this theme into All Hallows Eve, a time to acknowledge the souls of those who had passed away. The Celtic Pagans of the distant past called it Samhain, or “Summer’s End.” It was a time to communicate with the ancestors and muse about what lay on the other side of the veil of death. The late Autumn time, when the very last of the harvest was brought in for winter, was always riddled with themes of death, darkness, and mystery. The midpoint between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice is a time when the days are being consumed by longer, colder nights.
