This is another finger wagger. October 31 has difficult relationships with parents and when this creature has its own children, there are difficult times. The trouble is that opinionated October 31 sometimes can't see the other side of the coin. There's a great deal of Tm just an ordinary person and I may seem dull but my views are my views, take it or leave if. And of course, neither this hapless individual's parents or children can easily opt to leave it.
In teenage years they curl their lip at practically everything their parents say. Basically both their mother and father seem embarrassing and October 31 wishes they would stay out of sight. While this may be normal, poor October 31's mum and dad have to put up with it when the child becomes a man or woman. They'll find they're banned from smoking or maybe from leaving their fishing gear or their knitting about.
As a parent, October 31 is a great banner of television, so their children spend 24 hours a day prone in front of the set during their twenties which means a late career start. Sliced white bread is usually off the menu. As is reading comics, getting up late and playing pop music. If they get hold of power at work, they start banning straightaway. Nobody is to eat at their desk. The men mustn't wear suede shoes. You should answer the telephone after three rings, never put up posters, maintain a clear desk, not chew gum.
And yet, October 31 has the sweetest, most romantic nature and can be a memorable companion. Compassionate, it seems, with everybody but close family, they adore the countryside and love to walk. Companions see things they never noticed before, and return enchanted by October 31's tactful, gentle and enthusiastic observations.
Many are also tremendous performers, actors and musicians. Some find fame. Others shine in local theatre where their foibles are tolerated for their talent.
Those born on All Hallows’ Eve crave love and affection, but their innate caution makes it rather difficult for them to express their deep-seated desires. Although generous and caring, you also tend to be more than a little critical of your romantic partner. You need love and support, yet you’re fearful of exposing your own emotional vulnerability. Easily hurt by slights, real or imagined, you are inclined to hold grudges. You’re also exceedingly loyal, yet jealousy and possessiveness can make your closest relationships difficult to sustain. As a lover, you’re sensual, romantic, demanding, and extraordinarily passionate, sometimes even to the point of obsession.
Your approach to lovemaking is deliberately guarded until you are reasonably sure of your partner’s love and acceptance. The intuitive voice inside your head warns you to take care before committing yourself too completely. Once smitten, however, your emotional and physical intensity make for many thrilling sexual encounters. Stamina is your forte, and your bedmate may expect to enjoy many exciting nights (and days) sharing the innovative and inventive pleasures engendered by your lusty libido.
Being bossy doesn't stop these creatures from being sensational lovers with a sensuous passion for having the inside of their wrists stroked in bea and out of bed for studiedly romantic occasions. Both sexes prepare imaginatively for dinner with a lover. A Chinese meal is favoured, the room scented with jasmine. Make jasmine water by adding two drops to a large bottle of water, shaking vigorously and filling little Chinese bowls. Before setting the table spray the cloth with a mist of clove oil in water. Afterwards, diluted rose oil in water or camellia oil (safe on most skins) is perfect for scented nipples or anywhere else.
Acting out your secret fantasies can provide a creative outlet for your need to investigate a darker aspect of your sexuality. You may be intrigued by certain activities involving power and control or mastery and submission.
Exploring them with your lover can serve as a real turn-on while satisfying your curiosity about extreme sexual practices.

Your suspicious nature can make you appear somewhat paranoid and distrustful. As a natural detective you love suspense and mystery, and you’re absolutely fascinated by puzzles and puzzling people. In fact, everything that is dark and mysterious interests you. You like knowing other people’s secrets, yet you keep your own safely locked away in the deepest recesses of your psyche.
