This thread is about upcoming Wiccan sabbats, but feel free to ask questions or comment on Wicca as well.
The fall equinox, or Modron is rapidly approaching. I believe it falls on the 20th this year. Come celebrate the final harvest with me! Contact me for info.

Well, mostly what it entails, a little bit of the symbolism of the celebration, and how/what can I do to help?

Modron is the fall equinox, and the end of the Wiccan year. It falls on the day when daylight and darkness are of equal lenghth. This is the time when the dying sun god beigns his journey across the western ocean, not to be seen all winter once he reaches his destination. Apples are sliced open to reveal the mystery within- a five pointerd star symbolizing all elements of life combined.
Really though, we'll probably eat a lot of apples and drink a lot of apple cider, along with some pagan dancing in beautiful gorge near my house by a small waterfall. There will likely be some solemn stuff as well, though.

Sounds nice, although I'm a Christian and therefore I will be aiming a sniper rifle at you all. Lol, J/k. But yeah, I won't be joining you.

Guh, why are so many Christians against celebrating these things, Im Catholic for christs sake and im not opposed to celebrating them, I just dont believe in them, but the whole cultural part is great (Oh and btw this comment wasnt meant towards you Lobstrosity , ive seen other christians against it. (just had to clear that up as it sounds like im talking about your previous post ))
