    I expect some acceleration, but still, it could be
    Western Old Christmas Day (Epiphany, January 6, Orthodox
    Christmas Eve, which is a Wolf Full Moon at 7:37 p.m.
    here, 2307 UTC) before my latest magickal attempt
    at instigating a global new age is complete.

    But maybe I am Crying Wolf again. However in the story
    the Wolf eventually does come, but does the Boy get eaten?
    No, according to the version in https://www.storyarts.org/library/aesops/stories/boy.html
    but the flock of sheep does get scattered (perhaps
    like Jacob scattering the tribes, though maybe I am
    stretching it there).

    My latest attempt is described on the thread
    "back to basics" on alt.religion.druid .

    I'd be interesting in reading any other good Wolf
    stories you can recommend. Of course there is also
    the musical Peter and the Wolf, but I am interested
    in old indigenous stories. I will check the book
    I thumbed the Salmon stories in after I return to
    St. John's tomorrow. Do wolves eat salmon? Ha.

    Still virtually no S-now here this year so far.

    I guess at Wolf Moon the Shepherd has to be especially
    active. (Though I call God Goddess, and said on
    alt.religion.druid that She may be a Bitch, as in the song https://lizband.bandcamp.com/track/queen-of-swords .)

    Still virtually no S-now here this year so far.

    We are due for some snow Saturday daytime, though
    I hope for an S-yes soon.
