Mabon Autumn Equinox Sept 23 2015 Rituals & Spells

Autumn Equinox Mabon 2015This year the Autumn Equinox, or first day of fall, occurs on September 23. In the southern hemisphere, it’s the first day of spring. Also known as Mabon on the Wiccan Wheel of the Year, the Autumn Equinox is traditionally a time for spells and rituals relating to organization, future plans, self-discipline, balance and rest after labour. The hours of light and darkness are equal, just as they are at the Spring Equinox.

In the past, the autumn was a time of hard work. Fields were harvested and extensive preparations were made for the long, cold winter to come. Today, Wiccans use this festival to examine their personal progress to date and to make any required adjustments to their plans for the future.
