On June 21st, pagans celebrate the summer solstice, also known as Litha. This is the longest day of the year and marks the height of the summer season. Many pagans gather at ancient stone circles and other sacred sites to watch the sunrise and perform rituals to honor the sun and nature. As the year turns to autumn, pagans celebrate Mabon on September 21st. Mabon is a harvest festival that gives thanks for the abundance of the season. It is a time to reflect on the balance between light and dark and to honor the gods and goddesses of the harvest. The pagan holiday calendar concludes with Samhain on October 31st. Samhain is the most important holiday for many pagans, as it marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the dark half of the year. It is also a time when the veil between the living and the dead is believed to be thinnest, and pagans honor their ancestors and communicate with the spirit world. These are just a few examples of the pagan holidays that will be celebrated in 2022. Each holiday is unique and has its own rituals and traditions, but all of them are dedicated to honoring the natural cycles of the seasons and connecting with the divine. Whether you are a practicing pagan or simply interested in learning more about ancient traditions, the pagan holiday calendar is a fascinating and meaningful way to mark the passing of the year..
