Why the NYT feels this is news is beyond me.
They would be doing a better service to the reading public by showing why there are two equinoxes IMHO.

My goodness, such an attractive gathering. All Demonpaths I assume.
This is what my generation did as kids. I wonder if they're making mud pies for lunch?

The lush strains of a nearby performance of Puccini's "Turandot" blend with the prayers of an ancient Celtic harvest festival.Turandot is an Italian Christian's fantasy of a Chinese fairytale - what this has to do with fake witchcraft is beyond me.
And there are no prayers for ancient Celtic harvest festivals - any liturgical text is a 20th century invention.

Covering idiotic non-events like this, as well as its insanely anti-American bias has just contributed to a massive layoff of its employees due to declining reaership and advertisments.
Congrtulations NY Times - keep up the good work!!!

As long as they don't blow anyone up, I don't give a damn what they do.

My bread used to look like that.; I figured out that it needed less yeast. Somebody tell them.

Why the NYT feels this is news is beyond me.Because somebody was a ble to hold a religious service on public land w/o the ACLU starting a lawsuit! Besides it's a poke in the eye to those of us who walk in the ways of our, um, you should excuse the expression, fathers.

Ah, yes, the equinox. That's where, when you cross it, you lose a day, right?

Samantha of the TV show "Bewitched" was an anomolie. There is a good reason that witches are always drawn as ugly hags. If you doubt me, just look at the picture above.

NYT's motto was " All the news that is fit to print"; the new motto is "To print all the news that fits".
