Angels can be found in it

To solve the mystery of this crossword clue, I first had to consider the various meanings of the word ‘Angels’. While it could refer to the celestial beings in religious contexts, it could also be a reference to the Los Angeles Angels, a professional baseball team. However, neither of these meanings led me to a satisfying answer. I then turned to the second half of the clue, ‘can be found in it’. This suggested that the answer was likely a physical place, rather than a concept or object. As I pondered different locations where one might find angels, a lightbulb went off – snow! Angel-like shapes are sometimes formed in snowdrifts, and snow is certainly a physical place. This solution also satisfied another common crossword puzzle rule – that the solution be unexpected or playful. All in all, my deductive reasoning and creative thinking led me to the solution of ‘SNOW’ for the crossword clue ‘Angels can be found in it’.
