Hocus Dosh-us: The Sanderson Sisters' Ayurvedic Magic
Winnie, Sarah and Mary.
The Sanderson sisters are (broomstick) ride or die beyond the witching hour. Their quest for eternal youth and beauty by “sucking the lives out of children” is not that bad is it?
Each has a distinct personality endeared and related to by millions over 300 years. Characteristics rooted in energetics with a book of their own.
Ayurvedic qualities from Winifred’s raging temperament to Sarah’s timid friskiness makes for a second Spell Book. Bound in “human skin” or banyan leaves?
“Twist the bones and bend the back…”
Everyone has a teensy drop of the Sanderson sisters. Balancing the lunacy is the treat before unbalance becomes a trick.
The $cience
Power hungry or just hangry? Instead of children, Winnie can calm her negative Pitta traits with a kale and peas stew.
Winnie is undoubtedly The Boss. Fixated on work, she itches to talk about “The Book” at Satan’s Halloween get-together. Her fiery red coiffure atop her acute cranium compliments her ambition to rule hearts and minds.
That hair, that brain, that evil! Winifred Sanderson is the underworld embodiment of Pitta qualities gone unchecked.
She is an A-Type Pitta with an athletic stature and despotic proclivities. Winifred Sanderson shows subversives who clutches the power faster than an electrokinetic zap. Green with envy of her little sister’s spell on Billy, Winnie knows how to influence people alive or… dead.
Winnie tosses subversives aside with emerald zaps.
Tyrannical tunnel vision may plant Pitta’s face down on hallowed ground. A very rude awakening for Winnie.
Sa-rah! Though she has their quintessential svelte frame, there is nothing conventional about the youngest sister’s conventional Vata qualities.
Sarah is flirty, 300 and thriving.
She has less focus than Medusa’s snowy analog TV set. Sarah’s mind runs amok from Winnie’s plotting to “play” with any “boy” in sight.
Sometimes being pushed onto the road is the best way for Vata to get her head out of the cloud and get grounded.
Beware of underestimating this whimsical enchantress. Her fast learning ability knows a key ingredient in their potion and her keen intuition senses the witch-battling trio in the alley. Eerily, Sarah Sanderson’s hypnotic voice ‘fills the skies' with trances more beguiling than fat-free Halloween candy.
Befitting her childlike and ADHD character, purple suits Vata to promote and counter.
Mary, so beautifully rotund. Where’s the vacuum? It sucks up less than this Kapha-esque middle sister. Her goal in life is to please her older sister. A true follower, Mary is lovable and a supporter of any cause irrespective of the depths of wickedness.
Sweets in lieu of reciprocated support is a win for Mary. Stir in peppered bitter greens in the cauldron.
Despite this foible, her strength is in forming ‘Calming Circles’ and ‘smelling out children’.
In true Kapha form, Mary’s strength is in her ability to stay calm.
A canine tooth benefits the latter and snacking opportunities. Sweets are numero uno, but put Cheetos and a remote in front of her and Mary will cozy up on the couch as if she invented torpidity.
Too many Halloween snacks and extended sedentary hours further impede Kapha’s slow metabolism. Mary should borrow some fire from Winnie.
Orange gives Kapha benevolent heat. She should eat it or wear it before the cloying burns her up.
Bottom Line
This Halloween, before putting the potion in motion, do not light the black flame candle or forget a fresh “dead man’s”…
Broom hoe!
Evenly grounded mental states keep the dosha scaries away.
