High Spirited for Halloween!
How many ways can you define “spirit”? So many that its
definition takes up three inches in
teeny-tiny type in the dictionary!
Of course, this time of year, thoughts go to Halloween and thinning
of the veil between the spirit world and the living.
And I’m floating over them with the perfect
word to impress your friends at your Halloween party! When you think “spirit”
is overused, whip out …
For
added spookiness, Words With Friends’ definition: “divine power or spirit; a
deity, esp. one presiding locally or believed to inhabit a particular object.”
Crystal balls
and Ouija boards,
witches’ cauldrons and magic wands, party hearty or nostalgia night, prayer
for the dearly departed or feast of fall (bountiful with chocolate!)—however you
celebrate Halloween, be sure to put lots of numen into it!
Word Challenge: NUMEN. Make friends with your inner numen and keep it close
to you this Halloween! Can you fit more numen into your week of otherworld
writings?
