October is the tenth month of the year in the
Gregorian Calendar and one of seven Gregorian months with a length of 31
days. In the northern hemisphere, October is commonly
associated with the season of autumn. October begins in western tropical astrology with the sun
in the sign of Libra and ends in the sign of Scorpio. Astronomically speaking, the sun actually begins in the constellation of Virgo and ends in the constellation of Libra.
In Latin, octo means "eight," reflecting the fact that October was the eighth month in the Roman calendar.
