Mabon
The Autumn equinox, this year falls on September 23rd

The autumn equinox is closely associated with the Goddess Demeter, who roams the Earth morning the loss of her Daughter Persephone.

This is also the best time to see the Summer Triangle. These three stars are so bright they can be visible even in the city. Their names are, Vega, Deneb, and Altair.
While I was watching the meteor showers I saw these three bright stars and wondered what they were, now I know “The Summer Triangle”
This had covered all the pagan holidays, hope you enjoyed.

This year it's on the 22nd

Is anyone doing anything special this year??

Tomorrow!!! I have made Butternut Squash Soup, and I'm making a spice cake. It is Hubbies Birthday on Sunday, so it will be a weekend of feasting and drinking! He likes Cheesecake! So, I'll get him one of those too.
I have to tidy up the altar, new candles etc. I will do my intentions for the New Moon as well.

Wishing all a Blessed Mabon! I bought some black and white candles yesterday. I'm using the Black one to release bad habits, feelings etc. and the white one to create abundance and happiness. I have decorated with new candles, acorns and nuts, looking full on awesome.

That sounds wonderful, I miss my Altar, it's in Randy's room covered (with stuff on it) I don't have room in my bedroom, but I can set one up for an evening, I do miss my basement room.
I do hope you all had a blessed Mabon!!!

I think my workings went well, the altar looked like a blazing inferno with all the candles going. I managed to do my rituals alone, it is always better that way. No questions asked.

I do too, I can concentrate better, I can set up in here, but it's not like my Basement room, I do miss that.

Does he shake his head, and mutter your a crazy woman

little do they know

Crazy like a fox.

Feb. 2nd is Imbolc, I have had a busy time of it at the Full Super Moon etc. I haven't even thought about what to do in the way of celebrating of this Sabbat. Also Groundhog day which I don't like because, I don't think anyone should be waking up a sleepy Ground Hog. I am never suprised when they get bitten.
I may just light a pale yellow candle to celebrate pre-spring, it is way too early for us here to see snowdrops but we can do spell work for purity, growth and renewal. New beginnings, household cleansing rituals, Good luck spells, re-consecration of tools and weather divination.
Maybe I' will buy some fresh flowers for my altar. Have a Blessed Imbolc.

I thought Imbolc was Feb 1st. cuz it's my Mom's birthday, and I'm Aug 1st which is Lummas

Witches Calendar says the 2nd Feb. If you did it early, I don't think it will matter much. It is the effort that counts.
Cloudy here, no ground hogs around, I say No More Winter!!!!!

Well it seen it's shadow here so we have 6 more weeks of 50 to 60 degrees

I could live with that! When I did my workings, I asked for only snow on the tops of the mountains and not at my house. Cloudy and misty today.

It's so nice today, but rain is on the way, but I'm cool with the rain it washes away all the dirt on the roads.
I like sitting outside watching it rain, and feeling like it's washing away all my negative energy, so soothing to the soul.

Blue Skies and Sun today, but freezing! We found some driftwood at the Lake and a nice car ride to another town called Kaslo, BC. We had lunch out in Kaslo and saw two huge Ravens.

Ravens, how cool, down here we have "road kill Vultures"

Must be nice, I'm coming to live There.

Do you mean Crows? They are always on the scrounge, The eagles are always found at road kills too.
