Hey, beautiful people!
I've created a table of the 2024-2025 Sabbat dates for the Southern Hemisphere for you, so you can easily reference them and follow the Great Wheel of the Year. The table shows one turn of the Great Wheel, from Witches' New Year (Samhain) in May, 2024, through to Mabon in March, 2025.
The dates and times shown below are in the Sydney/Melbourne/Canberra timezone (AEST). Times showing an asterisk indicate they are have been adjusted for Daylight Savings (AEDT).
I'm so looking forward to journeying around the Wheel with you this and every year. 🙏

Explanation Note from Archeo Astronomy:
Equinox and Solstice times supplied by the U.S. Naval Observatory, Washington DC. Cross Quarter moments are interpolated as the split or bisector in degrees along the ecliptic between Solstices and Equinoxes. Former NASA rocket scientist Rollin Gillespie applied a spatial application in the mid-1980s to determine cross quarters.
