Mabon is the time of the second harvest, and of thanksgiving.

The harvest is ending,
the earth is dying.
The cattle have come in from their fields.
We have the earth's bounty
on the table before us
and for this we give thanks to the gods
A Prayer to the Dark Mother :
Day turns to night,
and life turns to death,
and the Dark Mother1 teaches us to dance.
Hecate, Demeter, Kali,
Nemesis, Morrighan, Tiamet,
bringers of destruction, you who embody the Crone2,
I honor you as the earth goes dark.
