What the Hounds? Season of the Witch

By The Wild Hunt | 22 minutes ago

In this edition of *What the Hounds?*, a Salem museum sparks outrage, Etsy Witches tackle weddings and job hunts, and a Christian author sees demons everywhere. [Yah, we know. No news there, but this one’s good.] The Hounds have questions. Lots of questions.

“Not Just a Pile of Stones:” Vandalism of Somerset’s Bronze Age Burial Mounds

CROWCOMBE, England — A Bronze Age burial monument in Somerset’s Quantock Hills has suffered further damage after stones were removed and rearranged at the protected archaeological site, raising concerns about the preservation of a prehistoric landscape associated with ancient burial and ceremonial practices. Burial monuments were not necessarily isolated structures. Their placement within the landscape reflects relationships between communities, ancestors, and particular locations.

Editorials and Analysis

  • Editorial: Lawsuits and Letters suggest Workplace is a New Religious Liberty Front
    By Manny Tejeda y Moreno

    A federal settlement protecting Christian employers and a Southern Baptist appeal to the Justice Department raise a broader question: Will the government’s expanding religious-liberty framework offer minority faiths the same protections in the workplace?

  • Editorial: The Opposite of the Warrior
    By Manny Tejeda y Moreno

    The revival of Muscular Christianity reflects a broader cultural shift that elevates the warrior above the citizen. Healthy societies require many virtues—not one—and religion should cultivate wisdom, stewardship, and civic responsibility alongside courage.

    By The Wild Hunt

    More Witches are watching Practical Magic 2 and reviewing it. Star Bustamonte and Stacy Psaros find Hollywood magic, familiar tropes, family curses, sympathetic Witches, and enough Owens family nostalgia (and midnight margaritas) to make the return journey worthwhile.

Pagan Perspectives

  • Emotional Fractures and the Whispers of Ancestral Connection
    By Clio Ajana

    "As the weather cools," writes Clio Ajana, "the leaves change colors, and start to fall, we feel the veil thinning. We welcome our ancestors into our homes, our practices, and our lives. We celebrate with them and rejoice at their presence in our lives."

  • Tyr, Thor, Monsters, and Macklemore
    By Karl E. H. Seigfried

Tarot of the Week

Tarot of the Week

Deck: Sun and Moon Tarot, by Vanessa Decort, and published by U.S. Games Systems, Inc.

Card: Four (4) of Swords: Truce

This week could offer up some interesting challenges that may require unexpected pivots and shifts. The need to be flexible and open to new options is likely to be highlighted, but making hasty decisions should be discouraged. Finding a balance point is liable to be key. If there is uncertainty, a step back to fully evaluate the situation is likely to be called for.

Conversely, the need to recognize that taking a break is likely to be front and center. Otherwise, expect to be forced by exhaustion to do so. Attempting to push through despite the need for rest has the potential for frustration and even burnout. Even a forced respite can allow for being more fully present mentally and emotionally and is conducive to making a clearer assessment of what is truly needed.
