I've noticed this too. I attribute it in part to the fact that there seem to be a lot of recovered alcoholics/addicts in the pagan movement. Also, some people feel magic and ritual power is lessened rather than enhanced if the mind is altered. I personally find nothing wrong with having wine, mead, beer or cannabis during ritual workings, as long as nobody is getting blitzed. Entheogens and mild alcoholic beverages can help a person relax and tune in a bit easier sometimes.
