Sabbat of the Witch
The Sabbat of the Witch—also known as the Witch’s Sabbath, Sabbat, Sun Festival, Fire Festival, Equinox, or Solstice—is a celebration of the turning wheel of the year. It’s how we witches honor the dance of the sun and moon, the cycles that shape our Earth, our energy, and our very bones.
To follow the sun is to follow life itself. By attuning to its rhythm, witches can predict weather patterns, grow lush gardens, honor life and death, and reconnect with our sacred source of light and warmth. This isn't new—this is ancient magic.
Embracing the Light: A Witch’s Guide to Imbolc
As the chill of winter lingers and the promise of spring begins to stir beneath the frozen earth, we arrive at Imbolc—one of the most sacred festivals in the Wheel of the Year. Celebrated on February 1st or 2nd, Imbolc marks the midpoint between winter and spring, a time of awakening, purification, and renewal. This festival honors Brigid, the Celtic goddess of fertility, poetry, and healing, as we welcome the growing light and the return of life to the land.
