The Magickal Properties of Sage

The different kinds of Witches specialize in a form of craft or practice that uses their magic in different ways.

Planning Your Mabon Feast

After celebrating so many Sabbats, do you ever feel like you are eating the same thing every time or that you are getting bored because the harvest is the same every time? It is okay to feel like that. Sabbats rely on the current harvest to supply food for a feast, so if you are planting the same thing each time, the repetitive nature can happen. What Witches can plant depends on where they live, but if they are not afraid to reach out to their community or go to different supermarkets to get ingredients, they can start to differentiate the foods associated with each Sabbat. As Mabon is approaching, you still have time to gather ingredients to make a feast unique to Mabon. So that you can have a handy dandy shopping list to reference, take a look at the foods you can make to have a wonderful and stomach satisfying Mabon feast.
