Wheel of the Year – Mabon
Mabon, celebrated around the Autumn Equinox, marks the second harvest festival in the Wheel of the Year, symbolising balance, gratitude, and preparation for the darker months ahead. Its origins are linked to ancient harvest traditions and the myth of Mabon ap Modron from Welsh mythology, representing the cyclical nature of light, darkness, life, and death. While the modern observance of Mabon was introduced in the 20th century, it draws from ancient practices of honouring the earth's abundance and the balance between day and night. Today, Mabon is a time for reflection, gratitude, and connecting with nature's cycles as we prepare to enter the introspective season of winter.
