Mabon Activities: Take a walk outside and gather herbs, berries, and leaves. Don’t hurt the plants though (obviously). Have a feast. Good foods and drinks to have at Mabon are fruits, berries, bread, wine, and apple cider. — Make a wreath out of vines. Make a Bessom.Create a Mabon altar. Research the lore and history of Mabon. I do autumn related things, in general, to get into the spirit of Mabon. —  Think about all of the blessings in your life and the things you want to change. Mabon is kinda like the witches’ Thanksgiving.  Prepare for the dark half of the year. 

When is Mabon? This year, Mabon is being celebrated from the 21st of September - the 29th. So there’s plenty of time to celebrate! Thank you for reading this and have a magickal Mabon, everyone! ❤❤

Edit: And just a reminder, witches can celebrate Mabon too :) 

Mabon 2019

This is one of my older altars and was part of a ritual to say goodbye to three family members who had passed (including my mother in law and my own father).
