Ding Dong, The Myth Is Dead

Author: Marliss Weber   Source: See Magazine (Canada)

Title: DING DONG, THE MYTH IS DEAD

It’s that time of year again. Pretty soon miniature Hannah Montanas and Edward Cullens will be terrorizing neighbourhoods, begging for candy and ringing doorbells in the middle of supper. Later, the tartlets who dress up their doggies will hit the nightclubs, as Halloween has become more of a sexy circus and less of a supernatural celebration. Where’s the spook factor in hanging out with 5,000 of your closest friends on a sweaty, sparkle-and-feather-boa-infested, seizure-inducing dancefloor?

So this year, I wanted to get up close and personal with the real Halloweeny set. But as there’s a shortage of ghouls and vampires in town to interview, I set my sights on the one Halloween character I could talk to: the witch. Is there any truth, I wondered, to the pointy-hat-and-cackle stereotype? Even beyond Halloween, what’s it like to be a witch in Edmonton these days?

Which is how I find myself sitting in the pleasantly cluttered kitchen of an Edmonton witch. And despite the warmth outside, I’m freezing. “Magic?” I ask the witch.

“Air conditioning,” she says, rubbing her very pregnant belly.

"Kelton’s son, Andrew, now a real estate executive in North Carolina, said: "That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard in my life."

Is that Andarryllew van Horne?

The Wiccan Season has Samhain to worry about, and this article is about a stupidly cruel Pastor Dunne. It's possible, the guy's trying to find something to be saved from, and some attendance unto that prefunerary facility might be also an attendance unto him.

I know a Transvestite Druggy, in Dallas, and she/he/it might have some advice.

I'm not on the ground, in that area, but could describe an ad-hoc ministry, to fix things up a bit, if anyone wants to find a Well of Unrevealed Wealth.

Eight of Coins came right out in Shuffling, looking like a diligent workman... Drawn is the Knight of Wands Invart: Interruption; Unexpected Change; Quarreling; Breakup of personal relationships; Rupture... What aspects of this, could that card enlighten?
