Episode 2.5: Mad-Hatter special on Hades & Persephone

Yes, that's right, a nip of insanity sipped into the evening of wind and storm, and led to inspiration that needed to be shared! First we have some catch up of recent events, including mention of the wonderful botanicals by Sarah at www.forestgrovebotanica.com. Plus the foolishness of people and the importance of friends, particularly for pointing out our own foolishness. In the break we listen to a short clip of The Brady Bunch singing "Time to Change" off their It's a Sunshine Day album, very short, it's okay, don't fret. Then the Arrogant Worms' "Me Like Hockey" from their album Semi-Conducted (www.arrogantworms.com), a promo from Fire Lyte at Inciting a Riot, and learn that this special Mad Hatter episode of Pitw is brought to you by the tarot card the Hierophant and the rune stone Nadir/Need. In the second (and final segment), I discuss briefly the word 'rape' and then outline very briefly the Demeter/Kore/Persephone myth as an introduction to the piece that I wrote today and was the inspiration for this episode. The piece is written from the point of view of Hades and he speaks to Kore as he goes to the surface to take hold of her as his Wife. The final song is "Caide Sin Don Te Sin?" by Clannad on their Banba album. Their website is www.clannad.ie. I hope you enjoy this Mad Hatter special and I will travel with you again on April 8, 9, and 10th for the Book of the Law episodes. Saturn
