Mabon is the solar festival that marks the transition from the light to the dark half of the year: day and night are of equal length. By Mabon, the land is showing clear signs of the journey towards winter - leaves are beginning to turn and birds are gathering for migration.
Associated colours are brown, russet orange and maroon, and appropriate herbs and incenses are benzoin, marigold, myrrh, sage, and thistles. Acorns, asters, ferns, honeysuckle, milkweed, chrysanthemums, oak leaves, pine and roses make apt decorations.
Mabon is the time of the second harvest, when fruits are ready for collection. It is a time to consider which aspects of your life you wish to preserve and which you would prefer to discard. It marks a time of thankfulness, equality and balance when you should try to appreciate and enjoy the fruits of your labors. The dark half of the year brings a greater emphasis on reflection, rest and planning, and Mabon is the point at which these influences begin to be felt.
