  • Hang dried ears of corn around your home in appreciation of the harvest season.
  • Do meditations and chanting to celebrate the past growing season.
  • Light candles in different shades of brown and orange to celebrate the Autumn harvest.
  • Create your own special and sacred traditions.

Sample Mabon Feast Focusing On The Harvest Bounty!

The cool wind blows in the trees
The god has fallen to his knees
Love for the land
Of kin and clan
A sacrifice so strong and noble
He has just secured our survival
Fruit of the vine
His gift in kind
Is ripe and sweet
Ready to eat
The year doth wane
As summer fades
Orange, brown and yellow too
These colors of the autumn skew.
As the life from the earth begins to fade
We are reminded of goals set on Yule day
We have watched them grow
Truth to know
Now we harvest the fruit
Of the seeds we've sown
Are you happy with the things you've done?
Or do you wish you could hide your head, and run
The wheel teaches lessons vast
But in the end, you plant your path
Sown with joy, harmony, graces
Or pain and strife, unhappy faces
But now we celebrate
And give thanks for the Lord and the Lady
