Mabon Invocation

Mabon brings the scent of autumn
Golden glow and sun's soft kiss.
Magick swirls and eddies onward
Season's end demands all this.

The wheel is turning, ever forward
Calling for your act of closure,
Fill the cauldron, light the fire
Cast the magick ever higher!
Find the laughter, make ye merry
Touch the heartbeat of our Mother.

Libra brings and air of beauty
Gracing all with harvest lore
Listen closely wisdom's duty
Look within to find the door.

The wheel is turning, ever forward
Calling for your act of closure,
Fill the cauldron, light the fire
Cast the magick ever higher!
Find the laughter, make ye merry
Touch the heartbeat of our Mother.

The fruits are heavy on the trees
Yellow, gold, and orange leaves
Nature's show alchemy
Ever clear to you and me.

The wheel is turning, ever forward
Calling for your act of closure,
Fill the cauldron, light the fire
Cast the magick ever higher!
Find the laughter, make ye merry
Touch the heartbeat of our Mother.
