Brooms

[Shasta56]

Brioms can have many uses.  I chased my ex arou d the house with a broom once.  Around the outside of the house, right there on the main drag where the whole towm could see.

My current husband asked me ince if we had a broom.  He was trying to work a bubble out of the water bed mattress.  I replied that of course we had a broom, and that I was in the habit of flying to work on it every night.

Brooms eh?  A bit kinky methinks.

Michael J. Harner explains how in his book "The Role of Hallucinogenic Plants in European Witchcraft". He states that if you browse through the works of medieval and Renaissance writers, you will find countless instances in which witch based hallucinations follow a potent hit of hallucinogenic drugs.

"How were these drugs administered? Typically in the form of an ointment. Where was this ointment applied? To the skin, of course, but in the most effective place possible; the mucous membranes. Where can you find mucous membranes? In a woman's vagina, among other places. How would one apply ointment to one's vagina? Fingers are an option but the most common way for a typical doctor or drug abusers in those times was to lather the ointment on a narrow pole. And where might one find such a pole in the average peasant household? A broomstick."
