Equinox Blessings!
Pretty Much Everywhere on this Planet (You know, the one there’s no substitute for) — Meteorological autumn began on September 1, covering September, October, and November—or, as we call them in South Florida: Heatember, Hotober, and BelieveItsFall. For most, though, the new season truly begins with the equinox. The September equinox in 2026 occurs on Tuesday, September 22, at 8:05 p.m. EDT (00:05 UTC on September 23). At that moment, astronomical autumn begins in the Northern Hemisphere and astronomical spring in the Southern Hemisphere. Around the world, day and night are roughly equal in length, though not perfectly so.
In this week’s Pagan Community Notes: We begin by remembering the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. And there’s more. Much more. Got a stick?

In this week’s Pagan Community Notes: Witch-obsessed undersecretary nominated for Secretary of the Navy, Osage Nation artifacts returned, Hekate’s Sickle Festival announces an exciting new location, Star’s tarot of the week, and we celebrate Summerween and chocolate! What more could you ask for?
In this week’s Pagan Community Notes: Fall 2026 is shaping up as a season of the witch on screen, Ardantane offers a course in Pagan leadership, Star’s Tarot of the Week, and corgis… yes, corgis. Did we say corgis?
