[/QUOTE]DESTINATION MEXICO http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2006/10/01/TRGJ8LDRQV1.DTL&type=printable The magic of Los Tuxtlas It's always witching hour in villages of Veracruz state Dai Huynh, Houston Chronicle Sunday, October 1, 2006 (10-01) 04:00 PDT Catemaco, Mexico -- The witch is cloaked in a black gown with a Chinese yin-and-yang sign, representing the moon and sun. Dark and light. Through lace curtains, a shaft of light casts an eerie glow onto the altar. A spindly, wooden red devil dominates the table, towering over the potbellied Hindu elephant deity Lord Ganesha and statuettes of Merlin, Buddha and Shiva. This is the room where Ignacio Cobix casts spells of life and death, love and spite. His timber house is a block from Lake Catemaco, where Mexicans come for boating, fishing, bird-watching and spiritual cleansing. Catemaco is one of three major villages in the Los Tuxtlas region, south of the port of Veracruz. Like neighboring San Andres Tuxtla and Santiago Tuxtla, Catemaco is shaped by virescent volcanoes and magic realism. Here, hexes and blessings are muttered in the same breath. Myths and legends flourish as lushly as the water lilies in the lagoon: Tales of water spirits. Tales of la Virgen del Carmen. Tales of the devil. "You have bad energy around you," Cobix tells me in Spanish. "You need a cleansing." Tonight is supposedly ideal for an aura cleansing. The magic will be strong when midnight ushers in the most important day of the year for the residents of Los Tuxtlas. "The people believe that the first Friday in March is the first day of creation, the first Friday in history," local anthropologist and raconteur Raymundo Gonzales says. "It's a potent day for magic. All the high witches are here for the gathering tonight." Every year, witches convene for the annual Brujos Convention in Catemaco, an area many regard as the center of magic. Mexicans believe there are three types of magic: black, white and red. Curanderos practice white or red magic, using plants or the spiritual world to heal. Most feared are the brujos, or brujas if female, who practice black magic. Curanderos, or shamans, are bound by the law of nature and karma to never do harm. But brujos, the powerful witches, answer to a darker creed. [/QB][/QUOTE]
