You pronounced 'Maybon' correctly, i.e. 'May-bon'.
Happy Mabon! September 21, 2008 (Fall Equinox)
FYI: Samhain is pronounced 'sow-in', Imbolc is pronounced 'em-olk', Eostre/Ostara is pronouced 'estra' or 'os-tara', Beltane is pronounced 'bell-tane', Litha is pronounced 'Leeta', Lughnasadh is pronounced 'lew-naw-sa'.
Some people use Candlemas for Imbolc and Lammas for Lughasadh, but these are more Catholic in origin.
Thank you for doing this. Yes, your pronunciations are quite off in places. Explore around online and you can find sites that give pronunciations (you can hear them say the words). I don't know the sites off-hand. Blessed Be.
it's nice to see you refer to Native Americans as pagans. so many people seems to not include them lol ... you're pronounciations are a little off, but mine i know are off too a little, and i AM pagan and celebrate the hoidays lol thank you for helping teach people that we arent "evil doers" lol
same with me. and most of the fellow pagans i know.. actually all of them lol, i know from online, so i don't hear them actually pronounce it. i know a little about celtic pronounciations, just a little, so that has helped. but i have found nice writings in the past that list phonetic versions of the words. those have prob been most helpful. though i just cant make myself pronounce Samhain how it's supposedly supposed to sound lol
This was very informative Dail, and a nice insight into the history of the world. It is amazing how so many beliefs are similar in so many ways. Thanks for the history lesson (and current day lesson) : )
nice

Great video as a Roman Catholic I still love to understand and learn others religions.
I have lots of friends on here who are followers of diff religions. Paganism was in England and Ireland back in the day xxx
Want to visit Stonehenge some day.

That is correct! But Native Americans, Buddhism, and MANY earth based religions measure the passing using a cycle wheel. Fascinating stuff!
