Persephone in red robes and Hades with blue flames around his head hold hands in an autumnal forest at the entrance to the underworld, with pomegranates on the ground.

Concept: “Descent at Mabon” Scene Setting: A twilight autumn landscape, symbolizing the Mabon equinox—a balance of light and dark. The trees are ablaze with golden, crimson, and amber leaves, and the veil between worlds feels thin. Foreground: Persephone, dressed in flowing robes of harvest gold and pomegranate red, stands at the threshold of the underworld. Her expression is a mix of awe, fear, and destiny. Hades, regal and shadowed, extends a hand toward her—not forcefully, but with solemn inevitability. His realm looms behind him: a dark, misty cavern entrance with faint glowing embers. Symbolism: A pomegranate in Persephone’s hand or at her feet. A raven or owl flying overhead. A balance scale subtly etched into the background, representing Mabon’s theme of equilibrium. Faint lotus or torchlight motifs to symbolize transformation and inner light. Color Palette: Deep purples, burnt oranges, dusky blues, and glowing golds—evoking both autumn and the underworld.
