As seasonal living has become more of a priority in my life, I’ve come to see spring, summer, autumn and winter not as four, static, monoliths but a succession of mini seasons that blend and circle around each other.
Now is the time of the Autumn Equinox, traditionally celebrated as the second harvest festival, or Sabbat of the Fall Feast (midway between Lammas and Samhain). Twin to the Spring Equinox it’s a time of balance again, only now we move from light into darkness on or around September 22. This time is known as the Mother… Read More The Wheel of the Year: Mabon

This drawing was originally an illustration of the Northern Hemisphere Wheel of the Year I drew in my grimoire, corresponding the sabbats, months, full moon names, zodiac signs, planets, moon phases, seasons, directions, and elements. Here I have converted it to digital format for you to download. These printable pages are perfect to add to your own book of shadows, to use as wall art, or to use the black and white version as a coloring page. This is an instant download only- no print will be shipped to you. Four files will download- the black and white version and the color version, a PDF and a JPEG of each. This drawing can be reused every year as it is not specific to a certain year. The dates of Beltane, Lammas, Samhain, and Imbolc are fixed; they are the same every year. The dates of the solstices and equinoxes do change every year, so I've just included the range of dates they tend to fall on. This download is for personal use only.

By Rosie Steer. The Celtic Wheel of the year is an ancient seasonal cycle that aligns with solar events - the solstices and equinoxes - and their midpoints. For each mini-season, Rosie Steer shares nature notes on what we can look out for as the days get warmer or cooler, the nights longer or shorter, along with activities, things to make, flowers or fruit to forage, seasonal recipes to enjoy and a modern take on the traditional celebrations. An invitation to slow down, pay attention to the ebb and flow of nature, and find calmness. Hardcover Dimensions: 210x148mm
