I host an event every night in October called The After Hours Ghost Hunt. Thought I’d make a funny video about human nature. 👻😁

10/03/2025

I made a short video of the Haunted Happenings Parade last night. Halloween has officially arrived in Salem. 🎃👻

Happy October!! Spooky season has arrived yet again! (Photo of my daughter getting her yearly hug from Satan last year.)

A few Salem tips...

1. October weekends are intense. I recommend coming on a weekday. 🎃

2. Don't drive into town. Take the train, ferry, or use free shuttle lots. Also, when walking around town, don’t walk in the street. We don't need any more ghosts here. 👻

3. Stick with local walking tours. There are a lot of out-of-town companies that show up this month to spew misinformation. I offer unique private tours, but I can also recommend other local companies.🚶‍♀️

4. Salem is not a theme park. This is our home year-round, not just a Halloween destination. 🏠︎

5. Please have patience. Local workers are exhausted this time of year. Show kindness, and tip generously. 🙏

6. Explore quieter streets. Walk to Winter Island, or Salem Willows Park. It's the perfect way to start your day. 🌅

7. Salem’s accused weren't witches, they were victims of hysteria. Be respectful of their memory. Some of the t-shirts and costumes that tourists wear are disrespectful: "They missed one." "I got stoned in Salem". "We're the granddaughters of the witches you didn't burn." ...No, no, no. 🤦‍♀️

8. Our historic cemeteries are sacred. Don’t sit on the tombs, and absolutely no gravestone rubbings. ⚰️

9..Enjoy your trip. Soak in Salem’s magic, show kindness, and let the amazing energy here carry you through Fall. 🍂

10. Lastly... come see me! I still have slots available. www.celestialnavigationastrology.com/salem

There’s also still tickets available for my After Hours Ghost Hunt 👻 at Gallows Hill Theatre and that never happens. Tickets here: www.gallowshillsalem.com/after-hours-ghost-hunt/

✨Happy New Moon Solar Eclipse in Virgo!🌑

Virgo is the sign of organization, self-discipline, and service to others.The card that represents Virgo is The Hermit. The Hermit illustrates concepts of solitude, silence, wisdom, and illumination. This is the perfect time to hunker down, reset career goals, read books to further your education, and begin to schedule and plan new things.

!!!…. I know what you’re thinking… “Wait. Didn’t I read this a few weeks ago??” Yes. You did. This is the second Virgo New Moon in 2025.

The Sun spends about a month in each zodiac sign, but the Moon cycles through the entire zodiac in just 29.5 days. So that means sometimes the Moon “catches up” twice while the Sun is still in the same sign.

The first Virgo New Moon happened at the very beginning of Virgo season. Today’s eclipse is happening at the very end of Virgo season.

So, think of this as a second chance around whatever Virgo themes have been active for you: health, daily routines, work-life balance, organization, service, etc.

Because this one is also an eclipse, it carries extra weight. Instead of being the usual time to set intentions for the upcoming month, eclipses tend to bring intensity. They shake things up, close some doors, and open others. It can feel like our lives are rearranging a bit.

This eclipse also wraps up eclipse season, which began with the Full Moon lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 7. That Pisces energy was watery and emotional. It brought up feelings, endings, and a sense of release. Now, with the New Moon solar eclipse in Virgo, the energy shifts into rebuilding. Virgo helps us get grounded, create healthier routines, and bring clarity to what we actually want to carry forward.

So what did you clear and release in Pisces two weeks ago, and what are your future plans? I feel like I went from digging into deep, emotional right brained’ “stuff” (notice I didn’t even have it in me to send out a newsletter on the 7th) and now feeling pretty grounded, motivated, and organized for what’s next with left brained “stuff”. Phew.

Last video in my little series as I played tourist in my own city. I finally get to talk about my own event, The After Hours Ghost Hunt. I also visited World of Wizardry and Gallows Hill Theatre. If you’re on TikTok, follow me at paranormalsalem.

No, your zodiac sign didn’t change.

Every few years the internet says “NASA added a new sign” or “your sign is different now.” It’s just clickbait. (Also, they study astronomy, not astrology.)

Astrology isn’t based on the stars drifting. It’s based on the seasons. In Western (tropical) astrology the signs are set in 30 degree slices starting at the Spring Equinox. Aries always begins at the first day of spring, Cancer always begins at the first day of summer, Libra always begins at the first day of fall, and Capricorn always begins at the first day of winter. That never changes.

Ophiuchus (the so-called “13th sign”) is a real constellation, but it was never part of the zodiac system. Astrologers chose twelve signs thousands of years ago to align with the twelve months of the year.

Different systems do exist (like Sidereal and Vedic astrology) and some do account for that 1° shift every 72 years. They all work in their own way, but none of them just changed overnight. And this still doesn’t mean your Western sign just suddenly shifted.

So relax, your chart is still your chart, I promise.
