Protection & Community: What Colorado’s Fall Festivals Can Teach Us

Did you know Colorado’s fall festivals reflect the same protective energies we honor at Mabon?

I’m Chelsea Ramm, founder of Lume de Lune, and every September I’m reminded of how deeply our communities and traditions protect us just as much as the crystals and rituals we use in our homes.

Fall in Colorado is rich with festivals like the Autumn Gold Festival in Estes Park and Elk Fest, where people gather to celebrate harvest, music, nature, and heritage. Beyond the joy of food, dancing, and tradition, these festivals carry a deeper message: they are living rituals of protection. They protect culture, honor nature, and remind us of the power of gathering.

Festivals as Protection of Culture & Community

Festivals like Autumn Gold keep cultural traditions alive, protecting the stories and values that knit a community together. The music, polka dancing, and shared meals create a shield of belonging reminding us that we are part of something larger than ourselves.

Elk Fest, centered around the season of the elk rut, honors both nature and Native traditions. In protecting these rituals and knowledge, we’re safeguarding the wisdom of the land itself.

Just like a selenite pyramid protects your home, these festivals protect our collective spirit.

How Community = Energetic Shield

When we gather in joy, music, and shared intention, we create an energetic shield. Laughter, dancing, and gratitude amplify positive vibrations, making spaces feel lighter and safer.

Think about how you feel after a festival or a night of connection with friends you’re filled, grounded, and uplifted. That’s energy protection in action. Community itself becomes a shield against loneliness, heaviness, or fear.

Inspiration for Your Own Gatherings

You don’t have to wait for a festival to experience this kind of protective community. Here are some simple ways to bring that energy home:

• Host a seasonal dinner with candles, music, and shared gratitude.
  
• Create a mini festival at home celebrate the turning of the seasons with food, décor, and ritual.
  
• Place a Selenite Orb or Pyramid at the center of your gathering space to hold collective energy in peace and harmony.
  

The goal isn’t just to celebrate it’s to weave a shield of protection through joy and connection.

Final Thought

As the days grow shorter and the nights longer, we naturally turn to each other for warmth, celebration, and protection. Festivals remind us that healing and safeguarding energy isn’t something we have to do alone community itself is a shield.

This season, let’s savor connection, honor tradition, and carry the joy of gathering into our homes.
