31 Days of Halloween – Day 29
Hallowtober Day #29
Explore some new music that honors this time of year. Wardruna is a musical project based on Nordic spiritualism and the runes of the Elder Futhark. Their music is beautifully stunning, and so powerful. If you’re like me and have roots stemming from the North, this music can be particular moving, but it’s really for everyone. I love how they integrate the runes into their music. We all have our own divination tools, and because of my heritage I feel closest and most grounded by the runes and their guidance. Also, try listening to some Pagan folk music. My favorite in this genre is Faun… the songs Unda and Gaia make me, and my heart, dance!

Get a Halloweeny mani/pedi. There’s nothing like getting a fresh paint job (or gels, love!!), massage and buff to make a girl feel like everything is right with the world. Spice it up with black glittery nails (I love the ones in the picture below!), or do some fun nail art in your favorite Halloween theme.

Take a trip to New Orleans. There isn’t a more Halloween-esque place to visit in the states in my opinion, and NOLA certainly has my heart. Go on a vampire or ghost tour. Walk among the crypts and graves of the dead… just make sure not to wear red lest a restless spirit may follow you home… bwwwaaahahahaha! The culture, architecture, food, music and people are all amazing, and this time of year they really go all out. I’m overdue for a trip out there myself and I really want to go to the places where they shot American Horror Story Coven… such witchy fun magic! Happy travels!

Go pick out the perfect jack-o-lantern pumpkins at your local patch. My favorite pumpkin patch has become a yearly tradition with my friends and I. Going to Lombardi Ranch in Saugus, CA (http://www.lombardiranch.com/Calendar.html) makes you feel like you’re in the country, yet it’s only about an hour outside of Los Angeles. With the beautifully rolling hills to greet you upon arrival, fresh grilled buttery corn on the cob, caramel apples, fresh produce straight from their farm, and live music… who could go wrong!
