Moon Ritual Seeks To Banish Bad Karma

Author: Jessica Machado Source: The Oregonian

Title: MOON RITUAL SEEKS TO BANISH BAD KARMA
 No one anticipated the smoke alarm would go off in the middle of the moon ritual. As more than 20 witches, pagans and "alternatively spiritual" beings toss a scoop of their bad karma powder into a boiling cauldron, a thick cloud of smoke fills the upstairs room of Essential Elements Apothecary on a Saturday night.
"Sorry, we're still experimenting with the powder mixtures and room ventilation," owner and herbalist Carmella Cook politely giggles after escorting the smoldering pot out the door.
Every month, Cook hosts an open moon ritual (held in a closed room during winter months), along with other events such as witches' teas, drum circles and aura parties, at her year-old apothecary on Southeast Hawthorne Street.
