In madron, goddess descends into underworld. As winter comes we observe weakining of the nature. We also wish farwell to the lord of the harvest. He is harvested with the harvest and his seeds are woed into ground. During equinox harvest has already been harvested away from the winds and storms.
From this equinox sun's light dims til the winter solstice, Yule, after what it starts again to get strong and days start to get longer.
Madron is a witches thanks-giving day, when we think goddess and god for their generoisity and divide the gifts of the harvest.
