October is the designated time for koromo-gae or "clothes-changing," when everyone in the country suddenly switches from summer to winter mode, including every student changing from summer to winter school uniform on the same day.

October is the month you can enjoy koyo ("crimson leaves") as the trees gradually change color. It's also the month for tsukimi, or moon-viewing, popular since the Heian Period (794-1185). October 3rd is the most popular time for moon-viewing, called juugo-ya.

The bush clover, lespedeza japonica, sends its pink petals out on the first, chill autumn winds;  its poetic association is therefore with saying "goodbye".  It is the most frequently appearing in early Japanese poetry of the Seven Autumn Grasses.  In the old days, its leaves were used for an infusion, like tea, and the seeds were pounded and then mixed with rice porridge.
