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.
