There seems to be no shortage of mistletoe in Moldova this Christmas. So much so that it turned some of the trees almost evergreen.



I guess in an ideal world there would be a road sign at least a hundred meters before one sees the trees with a trigger warning about rape culture. Or even better, the trees would be burned to eliminate any chance of anyone ever getting offended or triggered.

yeah you have to climb the tree and cut it off with a sickle, but you need a friend to catch it in a cloak or bedsheet cause if it touches the ground the magic runs out of it and then your human sacrifice is totally pointless.

It plays no role in Christmas celebrations here but is used to treat cancer apparently. There is even a name for this "therapy" we were told - omelotherapy. Also, not all of them are the same and can be used, it depends on the type of the host tree apparently.
