Why there will be dramatic plot twists this month

Get ready for some life-changing Canon events

Unfortunately, October is here and the British autumn weather is in full swing. Unless you're constantly online, October means the month of pumpkin spice lattes, darker evenings, and Halloween. However, people on TikTok are currently obsessed with the October theory – but what does it actually mean?

On the one hand, October is generally considered a chaotic month among young people, as preparations are underway for the best club night of the year – Halloweekend. In the iconic words of Cady Heron: In the girl world, Halloween is the one night of the year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girl can say anything about it.

But Halloween is just the culmination of what TikTok users have described as “the most chaotic month of the year.” For many, it feels like a rebirth – students are just getting into the swing of college life, graduates are starting their new graduate jobs and it also marks the start of cuffing season, so you'll be celebrating Halloween, Christmas, New Year and Valentine's Day can friend!

Why does October feel like the first of January for so many of us? User Macy Morgan explained that she theorizes that “October 1st gives us the same feeling as January 1st in the sense that everyone is trying to get their lives together.”

She said that seeing October first on the calendar tempts people to “make changes” because “there's only three months left in the year to get your shit together.”

She then reiterated the Halloweekend theory and that everyone wants to “look good” for the big weekend so they can indulge in more self-care and healthier habits. Another thing to count on was meeting family members in the run-up to Christmas, which would motivate people to set goals for their personal and professional lives. There's nothing worse than showing up at the family reunion for another year with disapproving looks and claiming that you still don't have a job, a boyfriend, a house, and literally nothing else.

Another user, Chloe Evan Berkel, agreed that October is “the second New Year of the year” and forces people to make “a lot of big life changes.”

She also said that “life seems to go by so quickly in October,” which seems the same to me now that I think about it. TRUE.

When it comes to relationships, she warned, “This will be a time when a lot of situations and relationships will blossom and people's love lives will pick up a little more steam.” She justified this by saying she was “close to the holidays,” which as a girl , which has high hopes of dragging a man to the Christmas markets, is hopefully true.

She ended the video with a final warning about “changes” and “canonical events” that will take place this month through the end of the year. I think the drama is inevitable!
