The Wiccan year is a cycle of festivals, rituals, and celebrations that are observed by practitioners of the Wiccan religion. This cycle is known as the Wheel of the Year and consists of eight major holidays, also known as Sabbats. Each Sabbat represents a different phase of the natural and agricultural cycle, as well as important mythical and spiritual events. The year begins with the winter solstice, which is celebrated as Yule on December 21st. This marks the longest night of the year and the beginning of the gradual return of light. During Yule, Wiccans celebrate the rebirth of the sun and the renewal of life.

limestone sculpture in the round (original) Subject: Hera (Greek deity)
Sphinxes (mythology) Image View Type: overall Image View Description: from front Measurement: 52 x 40 x 22 (centimeters, height x width x diameter)
wooden mount: 56 x 45 x 2 (centimeters, height x width x diameter) Description: This is a cast of a colossal limestone female head discovered at Olympia and housed in the site museum. The oval-faced figure looks straight ahead with large, flat, tortoise shell-shaped eyes. The irises are indicated with light incision. Most of her nose has been broken away (in the original) and her thin lips are turned up into a vague smile. The figure's hair is arranged in patterned, rounded waves at the forehead and is banded at the hairline with a narrow fillet. She wears a low polos decorated with vertical lines. Behind the left ear, which projects out from the head, is a cluster of stone. There is no right ear on the original and seemingly never was. The chin of the original is chipped. The face is generally planar and the back of the head is flat. This cast is attached to a dark brown wooden mount. The work was identified by its excavators as the head of the cult statue of Hera from the Temple of Hera in the Altis at Olympia, an identification that has been accepted by many subsequent scholars
others posit that it is the head of a Sphinx. Neither identification is secure. The figure's asymmetric anatomy has led some to the conclusion that it was not meant to be seen from the front and could also indicate placement in a pediment. Traces of paint were preserved on the hair and headdress of the original. Notes: Items in the Cornell Cast Collection are meant for inventory and reference purposes.

This is a time to honor the goddess Brigid and celebrate new beginnings. Ostara, also known as the spring equinox, is celebrated on March 21st. It marks the balance of day and night and the arrival of spring. Wiccans celebrate the fertility of the land and the reawakening of nature. Beltane is celebrated on May 1st and represents the height of spring and the beginning of summer. This Sabbat is associated with fertility, love, and the union of the god and goddess. Bonfires are often lit and maypoles are danced around to symbolize the energy and passion of the season. Midsummer, also known as Litha, is celebrated on June 21st and represents the peak of the sun's power. Wiccans honor the sun god and the abundance of nature. It is a time for joy, celebration, and outdoor activities. Lammas, also known as Lughnasadh, is celebrated on August 1st. It is the first harvest festival and a time to give thanks for the abundance of the land. Wiccans also honor the god Lugh, who represents skills, craftsmanship, and harvest. Mabon, also known as the autumn equinox, is celebrated on September 21st. It marks the balance of day and night and the beginning of autumn. Wiccans give thanks for the harvest and prepare for the coming winter. The year concludes with Samhain, which is celebrated on October 31st. It is the most important Sabbat and represents the end of the agricultural cycle and the beginning of the new year. Wiccans honor their ancestors and the spirits of the departed during this time. Throughout the Wiccan year, practitioners may also observe Esbats, which are regular lunar rituals held during the full and new moons. These rituals are often focused on the phases of the moon and the cycles of the goddess. The Wiccan year-round acknowledges the ever-changing cycles of nature and provides opportunities for spiritual growth, connection with the divine, and the celebration of life's many blessings. Each Sabbat offers its own unique rituals, symbols, and traditions, but all are united in their reverence for nature and the cycles of the earth..
