September Witchcraft - Harvest Moon, Mabon, Heather & The White Hare
In this episode, I’m stepping into the autumn magic of September — a time of gathering, gratitude and transition.
We begin with the Harvest Full Moon, exploring its folklore and how you can weave its abundant energy into your craft.
I dive into the lore of Heather — a plant long tied to luck, protection, and threshold spaces — and share its magical properties for spellwork and ritual.
We celebrate Mabon, the autumn equinox, a sabbat of balance, harvest and honouring the turning of the wheel.
To close I read the folk tale of The White Hare — a story from Dorset legend filled with mystery and enchantment.
Plus, I review The Cornish Witch by Elena Collins — a time-slip novel brimming with spirits, Cornwall’s landscape and the whisper of magic.
Whether you are preparing your altar for Mabon, gathering herbs beneath the Harvest Moon, or simply soaking in September’s shifting energy, this episode will guide you deeper into the magic of the season.
