Ok everyone....Time to get ready!! The Autumn/Fall Equinox arrives on Tuesday, September 22, at 8:05 p.m. EDT (some say 23rd which is fine as well!!). The thing is...it's coming and for those who Celebrate NOW is the time to stop on by and get your supplies!!
This is when Day and Night are held in perfect balance. A lot of Pagan traditions know it as and refer to it as Mabon. This turn of the Wheel of the Year represents the Harvest, Reflection, and Preparation for Winter. The cycle of Life, Death, and Renewal. This is a time that should remind us that every ending carries the seed of beginning.
So what can you do for this? I will be taking an Apple, set it upright and cut the core out of it. I set a Chime or Taper Candle into the hole I've cut. Sometimes I OIL the Candle and sprinkle HERBS on it, sometimes I engrave onto the Candle an Intention and then place HERBS around the base of the Apple that correspond with my Intention. I take a few relaxing breaths, Light the Candle (we still have a few Fall energy T-lites I made left btw!), grab a Journal, and enjoy!!
P.S. When the Candle is finished, because I live in the Woods and am a Nature Lover, when my celebration is over I remove the candle, wash all the wax and herbs off of the apple, cut it up, give gratitude and...throw it into the Woods for whoever, whatever!! 🫎🐺🐿️
Also P.S. This picture is my Altar last year and I used an Orange!! 🍊
See you soon.... 🥰
