Mabon: Autumn Equinox

Yeah, so I'm somewhat of a freak.  Today marks the autumn equinox or Mabon as it is known for Pagans and Wicca.  It's the time of acknowledging the changing of the seasons and prepare for the cold and dark ahead.  It's a time of reflection, atonement, and gratitude.  I suppose it's not a surprise that Yom Kippur also recognizes the same theme.  It's amazing how similar all religions truly are once the top layers of dogma are peeled away.
