MABON - An Autumn Equinox Outdoor Dance

Mabon is a modern pagan and Wiccan holiday that celebrates the autumn equinox, marking a time of equal day and night, harvest abundance, and transition into the darker months.

The Autumn Equinox is one of two moments a year when day and night fall equal, when the Earth's tilt lines up so evenly that light and dark hold the exact same number of hours before dark starts pulling ahead. It's a threshold, and we're choosing to dance it. Outdoors, in silent disco, headphones on, open sky above.

We will move through a 5Rhythms@ wave, and let the dance guide our offering through this portal.

About 5Rhythms:

Created by Gabrielle Roth and practiced by tens of thousands worldwide, 5Rhythms® is a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages, cultures and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness, and awareness into action. Wherever the 5Rhythms are practiced, a community is born to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. Creativity. Connection. Community.
