Autumn 🍂 or spring 🌼 ?

I think it might be tomorrow..

Mabon

What is Mabon?

Mabon (pronounced mah-bon) is a pagan holiday marking the autumn equinox. This day, which typically falls on or around the 21st/22nd, is the first day of fall! This is the second harvest festival of three on the Wheel of the Year. On this day, as well as the Spring Equinox, the length of day and night is equal. In Greek mythology, the Fall Equinox is also the day Persephone begins her descent into the Underworld. Similarly, in Celtic mythology, Mabon was abducted three days after his birth and was imprisoned inside of a stone wall, only to be released later. Mabon is a time to embrace the coming of death, knowing rebirth will come later. It is also a time to bask in the fruits of your labours and to enjoy yourself before the harsh winter comes once more

SO ITS MABON

Don't be scared if you missed the 21st, you have until the 29th to celebrate! This also is the time to clear all that pent up summer energy out and welcome the energies of fall which will bring about their own blessings!

Heres some some things to do during this time!

Cleanse your home of any dull summer blues like energy, and (if the air is safe for you guys because ik about the wildfires) open the windows to welcome in that cold crisp air of autumn.

Pickle some food in jars and stock up for the winter!

Honor your deities and/or ancestors (if thats what your practice involves).

Dont forget to also honor and/or thank Mabon as that is the Celtic deity whom this holiday was named after (please correct me if im wrong with this info)

Do some fun lighthearted things like wreath making, or redecorating your altars in the colors of the holiday which are, orange, gold, red, brown, purple, and blue!

Make some food that honors this festive time!

Give the land some offerings in preparation for the winter season.

Gather some of those beautiful autumn leaves!

If you have more to add to the list, please do!

Blessed be my darlings!

✨ M𝕠𝕠𝕟 W𝕒𝕥𝕖𝕣 ✨ The harvest full moon was a few days ago and you may have made some moon water. But what do you do with it after it’s made? Here are some of my favourite ways to use it! To make moon water, put a container like a bottle or jar of water (preferably with a lid to keep bits from falling in) in the light of the full moon to charge for a minimum of a few of hours or leave to charge overnight. Do you use moon water in your Craft?

As a Celtic druid, it really makes me sad that people don't understand where their witch holidays have come from.

I don't mean to make other witches feel bad, it's just I wish that Wicca hadn't stolen the holidays that the Druids had and turned them into Witch Sabbats.

Maybe, if you don't know the history, please learn it.

Druidry is open, so you can fully learn and practice the holidays, just please be respectful.

Unpopular air sign opinion: earth and water signs are amazing and must be protected at all costs.

🌺OSTARA🌷 - 21 DE SETEMBRO - no Hemisfério Sul.

EQUINÓCIO DE PRIMAVERA - A estação da fertilidade, hora de se libertar e celebrar como se estivesse recebendo um amigo que volta de uma longa viagem, época de melhor comunicação, expressão e criatividade.

A Ostara é comemorada na semana do dia 21 de setembro no Hemisfério Sul e na semana do dia 21 de março no Hemisfério Norte.

HONRE O PRIMEIRO SOL DE PRIMAVERA - Na semana da primavera, tire um dia para receber o sol, acorde mais cedo, levante suas mãos para cima trazendo o sol para seu corpo e alma; Depois coloque as palmas no chão devolvendo para a mãe natureza.

SE RECONECTE COM A NATUREZA - Faça um passeio com seu animal, com alguém que seja importante para você, faça um picnic com aqueles que você ama.

LIMPEZA DE PRIMAVERA - Se livre da tristeza do inverno com uma renovação de energia e positividade.

Cores: tons pasteis de azul, verde e vermelho; Incensos e Ervas: jasmim, baunilha, erva-cidreira, verbena, rosa, sálvia e lotus. Pedras: ametistas, aquamarine, ágata, jasper e quartzo rosa.

OVOS DE PRIMAVERA - ovos simbolizam a fertilidade, então decorá-los é uma forma de criar uma simbologia do que você quer atrair nessa estação.

Coloque-os na cesta e trace um pentagrama sobre eles dizendo:

Em nome da deusa da Primavera e do deus Sol, pelos poderosos quatro elementos, Terra, Ar, Fogo e Água, eu consagro esses ovos de Ostara.

Coloque-os no altar durante seu ritual de primavera e após o ritual deixo-os no pé de uma árvore.

RITUAL DE PRIMAVERA

Acenda as velas ao redor do caldeirão (ou do recipiente onde você coloca água) e diga:

Eu acendo essas velas em homenagem a Rainha da Primavera para que a luz do Sol possa trazer alegria e vida.

Coloque flores dentro do caldeirão idealizando seus desejos.

Pegue um de seus ovos de Ostara e diga:

Abençoados sejam o deus e a deusa fertilizadores, que este ovo represente meus desejos.

Eleve a taça e diga:

Abençoada seja a Primavera que regressou, que a roda da vida sempre gire. Que assim seja.

PLANTANDO A SEMENTE - tire um tempo para sentar e meditar sobre algo que você quer que aconteça agora na primavera, vá desenvolvendo essa ideia na sua mente, como uma semente germinando até se tornar uma flor. Depois pegue um papel e escreva sua ideia com poucas palavras, como se fosse um passo a passo. Depois diga:

Senhor e Senhora, recebam minha semente. Deixem que germine em minha mente e meu coração. Deixem que prospere e chegue à maturidade, pois cuidarei dela e promoverei seu crescimento em seu nome. Que assim seja.

Depois queime o papel e enterre as cinzas.

PRECE DE OSTARA:

Acenda uma vela verde e uma vermelha e diga:

A roda do ano agora gira, o dia e a noite estão durando o mesmo. Ostara reina o tempo da primavera,

a criança do Sol ganha forças. Semeie minhas sementes agora na primavera, deusa dê sua benção para o meu solo. Renove a força da vida presente na terra. O senhor do Sol está vindo para me ajudar. Que assim seja.
