Moved and Rose & Sage welcome you to celebrate Mabon — a time for reflection and restoring balance — with The Moving Circle’s autumn equinox gathering.
Like Ostara, Mabon is another moment in the year when light and dark reach an equilibrium. It celebrates the second harvest and invites us to reflect on the balance of giving and receiving in our lives, while giving thanks for the abundance of fruits, nuts, and vegetables gathered from the land.
Mabon encourages reflection, gratitude, and letting go, as we acknowledge the cycles of nature and prepare for the coming winter. By honouring this sabbat, we’re reminded to find equilibrium in our own lives and to savour the growth we’ve cultivated so far this year.
Let’s step together into the early-autumn woodland and open ourselves to receive everything nature has to offer at this moment. We’ll journal to capture the sentiment of the day, then take a walk to gather natural objects with which we can co-create our symbolic earth altar. We’ll then come together in Circle, where those who want to can share their thoughts, before closing our day with another gentle walk.
Walk the Wheel of the Year with us, embracing nature in all her beauty and sisterhood in all its sacredness.
LIMITED SPACES - Since we want to maintain the intimacy and connection of our Moving Circle, spaces are limited to 12 women only. Booking ahead is essential.
