Mabon 2024. Mabon, which coincides with the autumnal equinox, is one of the four pagan quarter days, along with litha (summer solstice), ostara (vernal equinox), and yule (winter solstice). It is observed by those who follow wicca (modern witchcraft) and neopaganism.
Falling on the autumn equinox, it is a harvest festival that signifies the middle of the harvest cycle — when both days and nights are of equal length — making it the festival of balance and harmony. While this marks the official date, celebrations can vary, with some extending the festivities throughout the weekend to fully embrace the season’s themes of balance and gratitude.
