House of the Witches of Santa Fe

Near the oldest church in America, Mission San Miguel, is a centuries old house, the Casa Vieja de Alnaco. The Conquistadores who invaded the area area they named Santa Fe brought with them Franciscan friars and Tlaxcaltecan Indian workers (slaves?) from Mexico to build the mission chapel of San Miguel the Archangel. The Franciscans had the workers build themselves this dwelling. The Casa Vieja originally had two floors and housed 12 families. The sleeping rooms were on the second level, reached by a pole and rope ladder. The fireplaces are built into corners of the adobe walls, and while there is electricity, earlier in the dim cool house windows let in the light. The second floor has been demolished during this century, and the main floor is now below street level. The skeleton on display was unearthed in the house. It is thought to be the remains of a young soldier who bought a love charm from two witches who lived in the house. When the lady marrie...

On a Wild Goose Chase

Glamorous Goose Aspen Meadows Senior Living In 2002 the Art in Public Places of Longmont, Colorado did a collaborative project with local artists and art groups called Geese Galore, and 34 Colorado artists were selected to create them. Now in 2010 there are only enough sightings of these seven-ft. tall geese around town to be a teaser. They are passing into local lore. Some Geese, it is said sadly, were vandalized or destroyed. Others have ended up in back yards. Geese Galore - Plaque Attached to the Golden Goose The Old Firehouse Gallery has a book of 28 postcards, but no one seems to know exactly which Geese were destroyed or where the Geese are located today. The Firehouse Gallery used to have maps, long outdated, but now no longer available. I checked with the local newspaper, but alas, it was not a project they specifically sponsored, so no treasure map there either. They do have a G...

Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself

I'm halfway through a book by Dr. Joe Dispenza, "Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: How to Lose Your Mind and Create a New One." So far I haven't lost my mind, but I'm eager to read more. The first two chapters are based on science, specifically the science of energy. The science of atoms and subatomic particles, electromagnetic fields, and wave patterns has progressed amazingly since I was in high school. Given that I'm a Boomer, high school was not that many years after WWII and the in hindsight tragedy of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Dispenza mentioned the atomic models we used in science class, made of styrofoam and toothpicks. It seems those models work for the things we see. But once we get subatomic, we are talking about fields of energy, of how everything ultimately is composed of invisible energy. Including everyone (you and me) and everything (books and churches and mountains and trees.) It seems we can easily get addicted to our upsets, ailments, a...
