And to you! Blessed be!
My coven doesn't celebrate this one as our usual high priest is a bit of a Mabon-skeptic. But I marked the holiday in my own way. Thursday night, my guy and I gave the apartment a good scrubbing, then put up quite a few Fall decorations. Went for a long walk along Lake Elizabeth, watching the winter crowd of geese make their noisy entrance and jockey with each other for the best spots. In the evening, we made apple cobbler, then burned some incense and candles. Walked around the place with some sweetgrass and fingerbells, purifiying and consecrating for the coming months. Won't say what we did after, but it was in keeping with the spirit of celebration.
My Friday morning class got a brief lecture on the holiday, being as it happened to coincide with our meeting time, and we watched this lovely documentary film of a Mabon observance kept by our Estonian cousins.

I keep the solstices for Helios, the equinoxes for Gaia: not classically Greek, but religions evolve. So, incense, wine and a hymn for Gaia.

My wife and I went to the local Renaissance Festival as the Spirit of Fall and the Winter Wolf.
