Happy Mabon!



Mabon, Equinox, first day of fall, Harvest Home, whatever you call it, maybe it be full of blessings.

Ways to celebrate:

*Go for a walk. Collect leaves and pine cones.

* Feed the birds and squirrels.

*Make a donation to a food bank.

* Simply light a candle and give thanks for the blessings in your life.

*Share a meal with loved ones. Light orange, yellow and purple candles. Place mums on the table. Enjoy foods of the season, such as squash and apples.

* Do a kitchen/hearth/home blessing.

*Bake a loaf of bread. Enjoy with some wine.

* Meditate on the balance of light and dark. Find the balance in your life.

*Pick apples. Make apple sauce, apple butter, apple everything, and share!

From my kitchen to yours, Mabon blessings. May you never hunger, may you never thirst.

A very blessed Mabon to you today, as well. It's raining like mad here today and the leaves are turning more each day on their way to a color explosion. It's actually a perfect first day of fall.

Brightest blessings,
