Episode #33: Death and the Harvest Festivals

Episode #33: Death and the Harvest Festivals. During this episode, we discuss Death. Don’t run away! You will find comfort here. We are in the Harvest phase of the year. These Pagan festivals encompass Lammas (August 2), Mabon (Autumn Equinox, around September 16), and All Hallows (October 31-November 1). These are about the earth and living full lives on the earth. We look within and sort out all we have learned this year, how we have grown, and how we are able to face change. When we think about death it is not only the passing of time and loved ones. We take a look at going within, withdrawing for healing and self-reflection, facing our shadows and our light, letting go of sorrow, pain, fear, and remembering all the good we have gained through this year that serves us so positively. We take benefit during this time of year. We discuss “death to new life.”  Let’s join hands as we find good times, hope, and playful memories as we go farther into this fast moving year!
