What is Mabon?

Mabon, celebrated around September 21 to September 29, marks the autumnal equinox and the second harvest of the year. It’s a time of balance, as the hours of light and dark stand equal, symbolizing the transition between summer and winter. It's a time when witches and practitioners honor the changing seasons, express gratitude for the Earth's abundance, and connect with the energies of balance and transition. The term "Mabon" for this celebration is named after Mabon ap Modron, a character from Welsh mythology. It is often associated with the mythological theme of the abducted and imprisoned child who later becomes a hero, which parallels the changing seasons.

Who is Mabon Ap Modron?

Mabon ap Modron, also known as Maponus, is a character from Welsh mythology. In some versions of the myth, Mabon is portrayed as a divine hero or a child who was abducted from his mother, Modron, and imprisoned. He is rescued after 3 years and plays a significant role in Welsh mythological tales. The name "Mabon" itself means "son" or "young man" in Welsh, and it is connected to the theme of rebirth and the return of the light.

Hades × Persephone and the Autumn Equinox

Legend has it that on the last day of summer, Hades, the god of the Underworld, saw Persephone picking flowers in a field. He immediately fell in love with her and abducted her, wanting to keep her by his side as the queen of the dead. Upon discovering the disappearance of her daughter, Demeter, the goddess of harvest, set out to find her. Unable to locate Persephone, Demeter’s sorrow and despair were so overwhelming that the flowers, trees, and all vegetation withered, bringing all growth on Earth to a halt. The gods of Olympus, who were powerless to ignore the prayers of humans, reached a compromise with Hades regarding Persephone’s return. She would spend only six months each year with Hades in the Underworld. To avenge herself, Demeter decreed that during those six months, nature would mourn, and nothing would grow on Earth until Persephone ascended again from the Underworld.

hi! i was wondering if you could recommend some films from younger directors (44 and younger)? i want to watch newer filmmakers, but i struggle to find recommendations beyond like, greta gerwig. thank you :)

yes of course! some great resources for you honestly are going to be film festivals - even if you can’t attend, a lot of them have programs that are for younger, up and coming filmmakers. sundance’s NEXT program comes to mind as well as other fests like indie memphis. filmmaker magazine publishes a 25 new faces of indie film every year as well, and i am always checking that out. these are some of the resources i’ve used to help me find younger filmmakers over the year - maybe they’ll be helpful for you too!

now, to get to your question.

all dirt roads taste of salt by raven jackson. rye lane by raine allen-miller. murina by antoneta alamat kusijanović is a hell of a debut film. shiva baby by emma seligman rocks. polite society by nida manzoor. little woods by nia dacosta. aftersun by charlotte wells. earth mama by savannah leaf. leonor will never die by martika ramirez escobar. both saint maud and love lies bleeding by rose glass! days of happiness by chloé robichaud is a film i’m still thinking about. elene naveriani’s wet sand and blackbird blackbird blackberry are fantastic. t-blockers by alice maio mackay. the novice by lauren hadaway.

some places to start! most of these admittedly are filmmakers who have been at sundance, and while i’m biased towards that festival in particular, they are notable for walking the walk in supporting the next generation of filmmakers, so it makes sense most of these have gone through that pipeline.

let me know if you watch any of these and what you think!
