The Major Sabbats are no more important than the Minor Sabbats -the name comes from
the fact that they were the earliest of the Sabbats. They mark the changes in seasons.
In the beginning we only had two season Summer and Winter. Samhain was the end of
Summer and the Beginning of Winter,. Beltane was the end of Winter and the Beginning
of Summer. Latter Samhain became the end of Fall and the Beginning of Winter, Imbolg
the end of Winter and the Beginning of Spring, Beltane then end of Spring and the
beginning of Summer and finally Lughnasadh is the end of Summer and the beginning
of Fall.
As we study the Sabbats we will see their importance in days gone by. Click on the
