Mabon Rituals for Beginners: Simple Ways to Celebrate the Autumn Equinox

It’s the finale of our Wheel of the Year series, we’re diving into Mabon aka pagan Friendsgiving and the autumn equinox. We chat about why this sabbat feels like a second, decolonized Thanksgiving: feasting, gratitude, gathering with our people, but without the gross history. We riff on root veggies, delicata squash, Tofurky loyalty, molasses cookies, and apple crisps as actual rituals, not just vibes.

We also explore how Mabon is all about balance, slowing down, and abundance that sticks from brown sugar and molasses magic to running in crisp air as moving meditation. Then we get delightfully nerdy about pentacles in the apple core, Persephone’s pomegranate seeds, and how pomegranate juice can stand in for blood in spell work.
