Mabon

The Autumn Equinox


Mabon, celebrated around September 21st to 23rd, marks the Autumn Equinox when day and
night are equal in length. Named after the Welsh god Mabon ap Modron, this sabbat is a time of
balance, reflection, and gratitude. It is the second of the three harvest festivals in the Wheel of the
Year, following Lammas and preceding Samhain. Mabon honors the Earth's bounty and the
turning of the seasons as we prepare for the winter ahead.
