Number of the month: 10
October carries the number 10, the Radiant Body, in coherence with the Sun. This is the body of royal courage, radiance, and presence — giving 100% to whatever is in front of you. When it shines, your presence alone uplifts the room.
In its shadow, it holds back, fears being seen, and gives only part of itself. In its strength, it is noble, magnetic, and fully committed. Use October to show up completely in every area of your life, and let the light you carry be seen.
Focus for October: Show up fully.
Universal Breath practice for the 10th Body — October:
Surya Mudra: touch the tip of your thumb to the tip of your ring finger on each hand. This mudra seals in the energy of the Sun, which governs vitality and radiance — concentrating and projecting royal courage, noble magnetism, and the light that shines even in darkness.
Position: Resting on the knees.
Breath: Universal Breath — 8 strokes IN through puckered lips · 8 strokes OUT through the nose
Mantra: Sa — Ta — Na — Ma — Wha — He’ — Gu — Ru (one syllable per stroke, silent)
Duration: 11 minutes daily throughout October.
Sit comfortably with a tall spine. Rest hands in Surya Mudra on the knees. Begin the Universal Breath and continue for 11 minutes. Balances the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Repeat throughout the day when issues arise around the 10th Body (giving whatever you’re focused on 100%) and you want to access the full impact of your presence and your Infinite Self.
