Mabon Sabbat Kit

Celebrate Mabon, the Witch Joseph Way…with this Mabon or Autumnal Equinox   Sabbat Kit…Your observance can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be…this kit makes it easy for you.

The festival of Mabon , is the celebration of the Autumnal Equinox and occurs when the Sun ingresses into the sign of Libra…so check an ephemeris or a trusted source to find out the precise date for this year.

This is the time of the second Harvest, of Thanksgiving and Joy…the festival of Mabon…the Witches’ Thanksgiving.  It’s the perfect time to cook a meal celebrating the bountiful harvests…and coming together to give Thanks to the Mighty Ones.  Now day and night are equal, in perfect balance, and we give thought to the balance and flow within our own lives.  The Sun God has become the Lord of Shadows and we follow Him into the Darkness.  Life declines, the season of barrenness is upon us , and we give thanks for that which we have reaped and gathered.  We meet to turn the wheel ; and weave the cord of Life that will sustain us through the coming Seasons.

This kit includes a handmade Mabon votive candle…to place in the cauldron or in the center to be lit at the appropriate time in the ceremony.  The Kit has a suggested declaration to be read for a simple candle lighting to honor the holy day…and there is a suggested ritual pattern/structure included that you can follow to create your own full ritual…it’s all up to you…as always, follow your inner light, your guides and your intuition…and you won’t go wrong.  Take what resonates with you and ignore the rest.

Also included are two chime altar candles in Sabbat colors…and an incense cone to utilize during the ritual.

This ritual is derived from my own practices over the years and there were many sources that influenced me and inspired my practices, including these rituals…they are: the Reclaiming tradition, Starhawk, Janet and Stewart Farrar, Raymond Buckland, Scott Cunningham and many others.

Each kit also comes with a complimentary Charm necklace with a Witch charm on it…as a thank you for supporting Witch Joseph…we appreciate you so very much.

We wish you the blessings of the Mabon season…May all your Harvests be plentiful.  Blessed Be! Xoxox

Each Kit includes: 1 Sabbat Votive Candle, 2 Altar Chime Candles in Sabbat colors, Incense Cone, Ritual Outline for an expanded Ritual and complete suggestions for a Sabbat candle lighting ceremony/ritual.  Also candle safety instructions (please exercise common sense when burning candles or incense and always follow industry guidelines for safety.) As previously mentioned, Each kit also includes a complimentary Witch charm necklace as a special thank you for supporting us at Witch Joseph.

When using your kit…you can freely adapt anything in the suggestions…also feel free to adapt them to solitary use, which is fairly easy to do.  The ritual outline is included so that you can more easily design a more complex ritual using your own elements…ie casting the circle, invocation ect.  Do what works for you.

Candle and Incense Safety:

Always burn candles and incense in appropriate Heat resistant fire proof holders that follow industry safety standards.

Burn within sight: A reminder to keep an eye on all burning candles, and extinguish a candle before leaving a room…many Witches keep a candle snuffer for this purpose.  (Some believe that blowing a sacred candle out is insulting to the salamanders…and we don’t want them upset.)

Keep away from combustibles: A cue to pay attention to your surroundings. Keep burning candles away from  furniture, drapes, bedding, carpets, books, paper, and other flammable objects.

 Keep away from children: Make sure your candles are placed up high and unreachable to children and pets.
