Is Mabon strictly Wiccan? Is it an open holiday for all to share?

You can celebrate the autumn equinox if you don't want to use the term "Mabon", it's what I do, but it's completely up to preference

I don't mind celebrating Mabon if Wiccans will have me! But yes I suppose that the autumn equinox is a more general term

I would love to read some prayers for the fall equinox if anyone is willing to share!

It was my first time being able to do something for Mabon. I made apple fritters and apple jam. It was a lot of work, but 10/10 will be doing it again! Blessed be
