FROM CHUCK SPERRY 
“The Mystic” wears late summer flowers and early autumn leaves. She carries a pitcher of wine in celebration of the grape harvest with September upon us. Perhaps the mystic’s pitcher is full of kykeon, a special drink shared by initiates of the Eleusinian Mystery. The Mystery was an ancient rite which dramatized the cycle of life, death and rebirth — the natural procession of the seasons. Thought to have been a brew with psychotropic effects, kykeon brought visions to initiates revealing the majesty of nature’s spirit and the mystery of its processes.
