Episode 401: Feng Shui Qi Forecast: October 2026

🍁Happy (to those in the Northern hemisphere) Autumn!!!🍂

 A new month means a new qi forecast, and this episode covers the shift into October through the lens of feng shui. October marks a continued transition into the darker, quieter part of the year. The energy of autumn is contracting as qi returns to the earth. Trees shed their leaves, plants die back, and the cycle of growth comes toward completion. We explain autumn’s energy, what the solar terms and moon phases mean for the month, and how to work with the autumnal energy. Plus, Anjie offers an I ching reading for the Holistic Spaces listener community and we share a list of auspicious days for each of the Chinese zodiac animal.

We cover: 

-October marking the shift from autumn into darker, quieter yin energy

-The month’s solar terms

-The season’s invitation for completion, release, and ancestor remembrance

-October as the Month of the Dog, with supportive and challenging zodiac pairings

-Ways to align with October’s energy

-An I Ching reading for the Holistic Spaces listener community

…and much more!
