Mabon Activities: Take a walk outside and gather herbs, berries, and leaves. Don’t hurt the plants though (obviously). --- Have a feast. Good foods and drinks to have at Mabon are fruits, berries, bread, wine, and apple cider. --- Make a wreath out of vines. --- Make a Bessom. --- Create a Mabon altar. --- Research the lore and history of Mabon. --- I do autumn related things, in general, to get into the spirit of Mabon. --- Think about all of the blessings in your life and the things you want to change. Mabon is kinda like the witches’ Thanksgiving. --- Prepare for the dark half of the year.
