Wedding in October: signs and superstitions, favorable days

Golden autumn painted the falling nature in the most bizarre shades. It’s as if it’s flirting with bright colors and trying to return the warmth of the cooling sun. And all her efforts are undone by monotonous rains, gusts of wind and even short-term frosts. But even the fickleness of October does not stop lovers who decide to get married in the fall. And more and more often you can see happy wedding processions in cities and villages. It’s not without reason that people call October “wedding season.” But what does the month of October itself have in store for the young people, what will the signs tell about it?

Pros and cons of getting married in October

If the wedding date is set for October, you need to take into account several disadvantages so as not to spoil the celebration:

• unexpected cold weather is possible, so you should select your wardrobe and develop a program accordingly;
• There is a high chance of rain and snow. Most events should be planned indoors or under a tent;
• limited possibilities for photo sessions: in yellow leaves or indoors (due to bad weather).

In addition to the obvious disadvantages, the holiday in October has a number of advantages that can smooth out the negative aspects:

• there is no heat, stuffiness or scorching sun;
• the autumn month is not the most popular for marriage, therefore the queues at the registry office are small;
• there is an opportunity to choose an original outfit, rather than a standard princess-style dress;
• due to the lack of heat, many options for a themed event are available;
• It starts to get dark quickly, so you can end the celebration with fireworks much earlier.

Important! There are no obstacles to getting married this month. Signs should be taken into account by people who sincerely believe in omens.

Wedding photo shoot

Depending on the mood of the capricious weather, a celebration in October can easily turn into a wedding in December or late summer. Good days can very quickly give way to the first snow. Of course, it is impossible to do without photographs against the backdrop of such stunning landscapes, but just in case you need to have a backup option. Suitable places for wedding photography may be:

• old estates
• theaters and museums,
• public buildings in modern style
• photo studios

But if you are determined to spend the entire photo session outside, take blankets and umbrellas with you. They will not only come in handy in case of bad weather, but will also become excellent decorations for photographs.

Favorable days for a wedding in October

There are 2 options for calculating favorable days - the lunar calendar and folk signs. According to the lunar calendar in October, a wedding should be scheduled for the following days:

• 1st number – suitable for a magnificent holiday, a luxurious wedding, a celebration in a large company;

It is difficult for believers to choose a day for their wedding, since Christian holidays often fall on suitable dates.

With all this, future newlyweds need to think about whether they really believe that higher powers will protect their marriage, since otherwise all efforts to schedule a wedding on this date will be pointless.

Wedding in October according to the church calendar

According to the church calendar, newlyweds can be married this month at any time, except for the Feast of the Intercession (October 14). But each church may have specific local temple holidays associated with the patron saint or founding anniversaries; these dates must be found out separately.

If registration cannot be scheduled for any day other than October 14, it is permissible to register the relationship on this date and get married later, starting on the 16th day of the month. It must be remembered that registration of relationships at the state level is possible before the wedding, but the opposite will not be possible, since the church does not allow weddings before the official marriage.

Important! Individuals who are far from religion do not have to take into account church rules, even if relatives insist on this. A wedding is an event that concerns exclusively the newlyweds, therefore it should take place as the bride and groom wish or consider acceptable.

Origin of the holiday

Intercession is a religious holiday among Orthodox Christians, which is celebrated on October 14 every year. This event has its roots in 910. Prosperous Constantinople was besieged, and its inhabitants lost all hope of salvation. In what they believed was their dying impulse, they decided to turn to the Lord and went to the temple to pray.

When it was in full swing, people saw the savior heading towards them, surrounded by angels - it was the Virgin Mary. She joined the inhabitants of the besieged city in prayer, took off her veil and covered all the people in the temple with it with the intention of saving them. After this, the invaders turned around and left Constantinople forever.

Since then, October 14 has been considered perhaps the most favorable day for marriage. People believe that the Mother of God herself will protect him from all troubles and troubles, just as she saved the inhabitants of the besieged city. If the newlyweds themselves make an effort to make their marriage happy, then the savior will protect their union from disintegration.

It is noteworthy that even before the establishment of Christianity, when paganism flourished among the Slavs, the so-called wedding season began on October 14.

At this time, the first snow had already fallen, sowing work was ending, people were putting away tools and driving livestock into stalls. From then on, young men and women wondered about their other half, followed the signs, or got married if they had already managed to find a partner. At the same time, you could not worry about sowing until spring and calmly build your family.

Interesting! The bride's veil is associated with the veil of the Virgin Mary, which further strengthens the belief that this holiday favors the newlyweds.

Unlike many other Christian holidays, Intercession is suitable for both fun and marriage itself, which is what believers take advantage of. Many consider it a good sign not only that the Mother of God will act as the patroness of the family, but also that the wedding date will coincide with a religious holiday, which will charge her with special energy.

What to wear to a wedding in October

Due to the unpredictable weather in October, for a wedding you need to carefully choose a dress and the entire suit, not only for the bride, but also for the guests. Usually the following rules are followed:

• dresses chosen are closed, with long sleeves, made of thick fabrics;
• Women should also choose shoes based on the weather - ankle boots, boots, and on a warm day - pumps;
• the bride should stock up on insulated outfit elements in advance - a fur cape, short fur coat, coat, cardigan;
• the groom should choose a wool suit, just in case there should be a jacket;
• You should take into account the possibility of rain and snow; you need to choose suitable umbrellas for wedding dresses.

If you have a themed event rather than a classic one, guests, the bride, and the groom can choose bright outfits made from warm fabrics in October. It is better to avoid dark tones of clothing. According to signs, only the groom is allowed to wear black in October. For the rest, it is advisable to choose the colors of autumn leaves, pastel shades, rich varieties of purple and blue.

Women who do not trust signs and superstitions can choose warm trouser suits in October, breaking the tradition of wearing dresses exclusively.

Important! The signs are not related to clothing, but they believe that pinning a gold pin on clothing is good luck. It is advisable to attach it in a visible place - the bodice of the dress, a tie. An alternative is any gold jewelry other than wedding rings.

The influence of the zodiac sign on the fate of the family

When entering into an alliance with a lover, people do not think about how their life will be arranged, their children’s education, and they do not know how to be a support for their other half, how to support them in any situation. True, the idyll in the family is an eternal search for balancing on the brink of love and a selfish position, reproaches and steps towards peace, love of freedom and sacrifices in the name. The zodiac sign under which a person was born influences the family, it determines character, attitude towards the chosen one and even human destiny:

1. Aries. In a family created under the influence of this sign, each partner will fight for top positions and strive to make decisions himself. It is problematic for spouses to agree with the contradictions of their chosen one, therefore quarrels in family life are a frequent occurrence. During a conflict situation, loving people can become aggressors and never even compromise. However, this is not a reason to hang labels. Such an onslaught is needed to immediately eliminate the threat that hangs over their family nest. If people know how to love and know what devotion is, there will be real happiness in the relationship.
2. Calf. Favorable time, there will be excellent relationships in the family. The spouses are devoted, gentle and very practical in everyday life. In such families, a financial crisis occurs extremely rarely. The perseverance and desire of each spouse to protect their relatives from material problems is a guarantor of financial stability. But in building the warmest and most sublime relationships, a man’s pressure usually goes hand in hand with a woman’s stubbornness. It is almost impossible to convince them of their choice or persuade them to compromise.
3. Twins. In a family, spouses will prefer to avoid quarrels, so all difficult issues will be resolved peacefully. There will be no raising of voices, lectures or reproaches in the couple. Spouses recognize the strengths and weaknesses of their other half's personality. Usually in family relationships there is one problem: misunderstanding due to the frivolity of the partner. What they promised will not be fulfilled, solely for personal purposes, and this brings frustration to the partner.

4. Cancer. Families registered under this sign are the strongest. They are able to feel the mood of the chosen one, guess wishes, and in emergency cases, spouses are even able to make sacrifices for the sake of the happiness of their lover, child or loved ones. Here, financial care for relatives always comes first, so the spouses are thrifty with money in the family. They always have the finances to buy something they need, but they are unlikely to spend even a penny on entertainment. It is important to thank husbands for their selflessness in family life. They can be very offended when their loved ones do not appreciate them.
5. A lion. The microclimate in family life depends 100 percent on the mood of the spouses. Both can be gentle and give in, but only until the chosen one says something contrary. If you yell at your husband, take a leadership position and start making decisions for yourself, he will degenerate into a true predator. Harmony can be restored to family relationships only through consent and submission to a man.
6. Virgo. This zodiac sign is a treasure trove for the family. Everything in the house is in its place, which helps to enjoy harmony. Spouses who got married under the influence of Virgo have the talent to competently approach a problematic situation, can analyze and make the right decisions. They will help with advice, you can get support and energy of peace from them. But a woman’s practicality often goes beyond reality, and then the family begins to resemble military training.
7. Scales. In a family, spouses do not demand too much and are ready to give in. Diplomats and tactful people, they help to get what they want in the most gentle ways, so in a couple this sign plays the role of a peacemaker. But don’t think that everything is as simple as it may seem initially. In personal relationships, the husband’s main task is to be an authoritative person in family life, which the wife does not always like. The weaknesses of the spouses are that they do not know how to manage money. In order to stun their loved ones, they are ready to make sacrifices and spend the entire family budget.
8. Scorpios. In family life, husbands are leaders and authorities: they demand inviolable obedience from their chosen one and loved ones. They make all decisions on their own, because they know for sure that only they are right. Rarely can unfaithful wives afford romance on the side and argue for infidelity. In relationships there is a lot of categoricalness on the part of the husband, but this is more of an advantage: the woman in a couple is always protected.

9. Sagittarius. Starting a family under the influence of this sign is the same as living in an amusement park. Optimistic wives will not even give a chance for sadness and despondency to anyone in the family. All their problems can be solved, since the spouses approach life with ease and enthusiasm. For them there are no unsolvable, problematic situations. However, sometimes such courage and endless fun cross any boundaries, and then the partners begin to quarrel and take offense at each other. But even in such a situation, the spouses receive forgiveness from loved ones by giving them many presents and a bright festive evening for no reason.
10. Capricorn. The family, like everything else, is treated with trepidation by spouses who have entered into a union under the influence of this sign, which is why mutual understanding reigns here. Partners honor family traditions, foundations, they can even be called admirers of conservatism. They often like to distribute roles in a couple: the husband gets the mammoth, and the wife takes care of the home. However, if necessary, the partners will take on any obligations, as long as happiness, harmony, peace reign in their home and everyone is happy.
11. Aquarius. In the relationships of this family, freedom of choice and equal rights of each family member are important. They can build happiness and a strong union only in harmony with themselves and others. Spouses in such families do not impose themselves, do not like to quarrel, compromise and are the first to make peace, rather than defend their positions. The husband usually loves comfort and warmth very much, which is why their homes are often equipped with the latest innovations in the world of gadgets, which make it possible to free up time for entertainment and caring for family.
12. Fish. This will be a family union with a fully realized inner love potential to compassionate and care for loved ones. Women do not want to be leaders, they prefer submission, choose a wise chosen one, love guardianship and create harmony in family life. For them, the chosen one is the center of the creation of the world.

A family often turns into a bundle of quarrels and grievances, and the matter ends in separation, dissolution of marriage and a burden of accumulated grievances. To protect happiness and the family nest, you need to choose the right wedding day. It depends only on the partners what kind of family the family will turn out to be and what happiness will be after the wedding celebration.

Table by day: which date to choose

To calculate a favorable day for a celebration, you can use numerology and the magic of numbers. To do this, you need to add up all the numbers in your date of birth until you get a single digit number.

You can sum up the signs obtained by adding the birth dates of both newlyweds or one of them. Next, you need to add up the numbers in the date that you need to check for a favorable influence until you get a single digit number. After this, you need to combine the number obtained by adding the dates of birth and the day on which the celebration is planned. If you get a two-digit number, you need to add it again. The decoding of the received data is given in the table.

On a note!

If the date calculated by the formula promises a favorable day, the wedding can take place as planned. And if not, it’s worth changing it to a better one.

How to avoid what is predicted in omens

It’s easy to avoid troubles predicted by signs if you follow simple rules:

1. People's beliefs should not be taken seriously. The less people believe in them, the weaker the signs are. If you don’t think that a wedding on a certain day in October promises misfortune, nothing will happen.
2. It is advised to avoid unfavorable dates. It is recommended to navigate either by the lunar calendar or by folk signs.
3. If both spouses are more interested in the well-being of the marriage than in superstitions, no bad omens will destroy the family.

The benefits of prayers to certain saints should be taken into account. The ritual provides psychological support to those in need, instills confidence, and gives a feeling of security.

Important! The less excitement there is associated with the upcoming wedding, the calmer the celebration will be. After a successful marriage, family life will be measured.
