Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the 10-year old witch apprentice) had been flying eastwards for 2 days and 2 nights. It was the very first time they flew in this direction, passing over the Tian Shan mountain range and the Gobi desert, after which they followed the mighty Jinsha River downstream, until they reached a range of hills with lush green meadows and forests. They were just wondering how long they still had to fly, when they saw a dragon flying in their direction. He had surely recognized that Falke was a dragon tamer, as he flew straight to her and indicated to follow him. It was a beautiful golden dragon with sparkling scubs of a kind which Falke had never seen before. Shortly afterwards they gently touched down in a clearing of a forest, where a young Chinese witch was waiting for them. She greeted her visitors with great kindness, although she was a bit reserved. Her long white and pink dress was truly beautiful and elegant. She introduced herself as Yǎqín, the protectress of the forest of the Jinsha River. She explained that it was her 14th birthday, which meant that a new 7-year long Qi cycle of her life was starting on that day. Her previous 7 year cycle was dedicated to contemplation and seclusion in the loving company of her faithful dragon Yìchén (who was purring happily while Falke was patting and hugging him). And during the new Qi cycle, she would meet the witches who were guarding the 7 other holy forests of Zhōngguó, and maybe she would even meet foreign witches. But she didn’t expect this to happen on the very first day of the new 7 year cycle.
Yǎqín first let her dusty guests take a refreshing bath in a quiet pond with lotus flowers. After the bath, she gave 2 hanfu dresses to Hekske and Falke, in exactly the same colors as her own dress.
Then she offered the girls a cup of herbal tea and lychees, after which she showed her visitors around her forest, which looked like more a park than a forest for Hekske and Falke. She explained that the forest contains 8 sections with 888 trees each. Despite its park-like appearance, the ecosystem was very rich with lots of rare species of birds flying around and singing from the stunningly beautiful pine trees. This place truly felt like a garden of Eden.
When the sun started to go down, Yǎqín invited her guests to her cabin in the middle of the forest. It was a beautiful simple hut, made from bamboo with a cane roof. There were stunning paper lanterns inside, which she lit with a floating spark from the palm of her hand (just like they light fires in Europe). That evening, Yǎqín prepared several magic potions, using a wide variety of spices and herbs, like Dang Shen (Codonopsis Root) and Huang Qi (Astragalus Root) which the Flemish witches had never tasted before. They were truly impressed when they heard that the witches’ community of Zhōngguó exists for over 2500 years, while in Flanders the history of witches only goes back 850 years.
Later that night, Yǎqín showed her magic wand to her guests. It was obviously a magic wand, as it would come to her hand when she stretched it out. But that was the only thing she could do with it, as it wouldn’t react to the magic spells she had been taught. Then Hekske and Falke smilingly took their own magic wands, and bit gently in it. Yǎqín looked very surprised when she saw her European guests biting in their magic wands. Hekske explained that this unlocks the power of the wand. Then Yǎqín hesitantly bit in the wood, and it started to glow immediately. And to her surprise, the magic wand was working perfectly now, responding to all the magic spells she knew, filling her heart with joy …

Stadtflucht 2025

Hekske (the little witch) and Falke (the witch apprentice) gazed at the bright light of the near full supermoon and they were already feeling excited about their next witch coven. But this month, their bodies started to feel ticklish one day earlier than normal, so the witches decided to take off and fly in South-Eastern direction, following their inner compass. The girls flew much further than ever before, to a land which was much warmer than their home forest in Flanders. It was also drier, yet way more varied and diverse, a mosaic of Mediterranean shrublands interspersed with lush green valleys with olive and fig trees, which the girls had never seen with their own eyes before.
The girls flew straight towards a low mountain range, which was greener and cooler than the coastal areas. Then they saw a woman waving at them at the foot of an old tree. Hekske and Falke sensed that this woman was a witch and that they had reached their destination.
The witches gently touched down and got a warm welcome from the witch, who introduced herself as Suha. She pointed at the olive tree and told her guests that the tree had the same age as herself… a bit over 2000 years!!
Hekske and Falke looked in disbelief at each other and realized that the history of this part of the world goes much further back in time than in Western Europe. In fact, this area is the cradle of the sisterhood of witches! Suha explained that they were in the middle of the lush green Ajloun Mountains. For a long time, she was the only Palestinian witch left in the area, and she admitted that it was too much work to take care of all the trees. But now a new generation of witches is rising up. Suha pointed in the distance where 6 young witch apprentices were running towards them. The girls were full of energy and fire and gave a lot of hugs to their European guests. Soon these young witches would be ready to take care of the trees in all corners of the Levant, replacing non-native plants by native species, in order to restore the original ecosystem of this part of the world.
Then one of the girls pointed at the sky and they saw 3 witches flying towards them. These were all friends of Suha: Mona from Mount Druze, Hannah from Mount Carmel and Juliana from the Beqaa Valley. The people from this part of the world rarely get along these days, but inside the sisterhood of witches it’s all friendship, respect and love.
Suha led her guests to a nearby river, where they all slipped out of their white dresses and took a refreshing bath in the crystal-clear water, after which Suha gave new dresses to all her guests and to the 6 apprentices. These long dresses were all white with beautiful green, black and red patterns along the seams. Suha and the 6 girls had been working for 10 days to stitch these dresses together. They all tried their dresses on, and miraculously these were all a perfect fit. After this, Mona took her bag and pulled out another surprise: she had brought apricot paste from Syria (which is known to have the finest apricots in the world). The women immediately started preparing Qamar al-Din, a sweet traditional apricot juice. 
And Suha had also prepared ma’amoul, which are semolina cookies filled with figs, dates and pistachios from nearby groves. All the girls enjoyed these delicious cookies with Arabic coffee and a touch of cardamom. 
The women had such a great time that they hadn’t noticed the sun had already gone down. This would be the start of a long and unforgettable night, full of mystic ceremonies and ecstatic dances…

In 2020 the Seaside Trip presents you »the untold stories of the sinking sea!«. the third story is pressed into sound waves by https://soundcloud.com/ener-music - a child from the coast of baltic sea like our captain https://soundcloud.com/rolandson also. he is a reserved person who does not make a big wave around his project the https://soundcloud.com/deep-smooth-podcast - a well-selected mix series, where I published a very special mix a few years ago [more on that in the course of the year, be curious]. on his channel well-known and lesser known artists from all over the world are represented. that is also what makes him and his podcast series so likeable, because it's about the attitude and passion for music. from time to time he shows his passion with his own, well-selected mix sets. therefore I am very happy that I can finally welcome éner on board the Seaside Trip. I am grateful to be able to call him a friend. But now we're listening to his »go deep to be smooth«.

Witches are the guardians of the forests.  We're not evil or dark, just a bit shy.  And even surprisingly sweet and kind... as long as you respect the forest.

Art project of Hekske ('Little Witch' in my native Flemish language).
