I'm a huge fuckin' fan of Modern Mythology type symbolic magic. Using an obscure herb from hundreds of years ago that once was the symbol of a protective diety to make some kind of shielding talisman? Whatever. Using bottle-caps because of the reasons above? Right on. Sometimes, it's a theme taken a little TOO zoom-in, up-close and uses such specific personal mythology that the "magic" of it doesn't resonate, or only resonates with a much smaller section of the populace. But everyone drinks soda. Everyone is subject to the endorphin release of sugar. Basically.
