occurs at the autumn equinox
The second harvest and the Autumn equinox. It is the traditional time of the grape harvest among other things.
This is a time to rest, relax & reflect on what we have reaped this year. And of course, give thanks for it.
Like any Sabbat, celebrate with friends & family. Secular activities like apple picking, harvest festivals & hayrides are appropriate to the Sabbat & should be enjoyed!
