so far I have only been involved in Beltane and Samhain.
I enjoyed them both! I think my favorite is Samhain, as I am able to talk to my family that has gone before me.
I knew the instant both my parents died. I had a certain chill come over me and with my father, I heard him. My eldest heard him also and she sat up in bed and said goodbye to him. I have heard my mother here, when my dad was visiting. Now they are together. I love the dressing up too!! I am a sucker for costumes!! I dressed up as Witch of the Webs one time at work and won 3rd place. My daughters had fun doing me up with my hair!! had longer hair, they teased it and put water colors in it black and purple and some pink. I worked in the paint dept. lol People had a good time about it. lol

I was born on 21st September and have always loved Autumn. The colours, the feel, the food and the whole thing of nature slowly winding down to sleep for the winter months. Samhain the start of the New Year a time to recall what was and to of what will be. Remembering our ancestors and being with family. Spooky tales and parties. It has a feeling all its own. I also love Yule it is full of colour and light with candles that glow in the dark. Warming fires and wonderful foods make Yule special. Then of course the Spring arrives brining in the wonderful blossoms and the new green leaves along with the animals and birds ready to find their mates. Summer is a hive of activity with warm sunny days and the rich harvest of soft fruits. Hmm finding a favourite is hard but I will go with Mabon it has it all, cool nights to sit in the warmth of your home, candles to give a soft light and ambiance, warm comforting food and rich colours of the autumnal leaves, yup I love the Autumn.

Samhain and Yule are mine. I love fall and winter. Every year I start getting excited when the end of sept comes around. Of course since I was born in late December that is the icing on the cake for me...

I love Yule because I can decorate the place in lots of greens & reds and the smell of cimmamon oils in the burner ;D

It has to be Samhain. Not only does it feel like the world is changing and the veil is thinner but all significant things have always happened to me at this time of year. I whirl from Samhain to Yule, sorting out big life events, then settle in until the same time the following year!!! I've noticed the pattern now, and it has helped me to prepare.

It's impossible to decide! I love them all so much! Each Sabbat is so unique with it's own individual traits . . . I love the Sabbats!
Although Beltane will always be special to me because I became Wiccan on Beltane & it's the first Sabbat i ever celebrated.

Samhain would have to be my favorite! After Samhain I think Mabon and Lughnasadh would be next. Autumn is my favorite time of year, so naturally the three autumn festivals are my favorites!

As a Sun Goddess it has to be Midsummer and in second place Yule (the direct opposite) and finally Samhain as it's our special time. However as I've grown older I appreciate the wheel of the year in it's total, the process of rebirtyh and regeneration

I have to say Samhain is my favorite. Last year I communed with my past departed pets. It was very healing as I had amends to make in some cases.
Last year I made my own Yule cards and sent them. I got a lot less cards than ever before! lol... I have this year's cards designed already, but I'm only going to send to those friends and relatives that send me a holiday card first. I can print them as needed.
