There are eight Sabbats, or holidays, that make up the Wheel of the Year. The wheel reflects the cyclical nature of the world, the seasons, and life. The Wheel has no start or end.

The Sabbats are spaced evenly through the year, each approximately 6 1/2 weeks apart. They include the quarters: Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Fall Equinox and Winter Solstice and the cross-quarters which fall on Feb. 2, May 1, August 1 and October 31. The cross-quarters are considered "Greater Sabbats" while the quarters are considered "Lesser Sabbats."
