2025 Mabon

Mabon, celebrated around the Autumn Equinox, is the second of the harvest festivals in the Wheel of the Year. It marks the moment when day and night are equal, symbolizing balance, gratitude, and the turning of the seasons toward the dark half of the year. Spiritually, Mabon is a time to give thanks for the abundance of the harvest—both literal and metaphorical—and to reflect on what we have reaped from our efforts over the past months. It’s also a moment of release, letting go of what no longer serves us, much like the trees shedding their leaves in preparation for winter.

Come join WiCoM in our Mabon ritual as we give thanks for the many blessings, and bring balance into our lives.
