The Wheel of the Year is a symbol represents the 8 festivals important to many pagans, Wiccans, and witches. These holidays — knows as Sabbats — follow a nature-based calendar and include four solar festivals and four seasonal festivals set in between them.Because solstices and equinoxes are tied to exact astronomical moments, the holidays shift slightly from year-to-year. There is a celebration about every six weeks, so there’s always something to look forward to!
If you choose to celebrate the festivals on the Wiccan calendar, how you choose to do so is up to you. If you’re part of a coven, you and your fellow witches may follow certain rituals and customs connected to the holiday. If you are a solitary practitioner, take the time to learn about each Sabbat and learn about the colors, foods, and decorations associated with each.
On this day we look at the Sabat Mabon:
Mabon or the Autumn Equinox is usually celebrated around September 21st, though it can occur as early as the 20th or as late as the 23rd, depending on the timing of the actual Astrological event. Mabon occurs on the date which the sun enters the sign of Libra, the scales. Night and Day are equally balanced at Autumn Equinox but soon the scales will tip, and waning of the Sun will bring longer nights and shorter days. The days will continue to grow shorter until the Wheel of the Year spins around again to Yule.
