The Grail

Notes made while reading “Children of Cain” by Michael Howard.

The goal of witchcraft religions is the seeking of the Grail – the archetypal symbol of spiritual illumination, divine knowledge, and mystical union with God; “the return of the divine spark to the Source from which it originally came at the beginning of creation.” -Michael Howard.

With the Grail comes understanding of the eternal mysteries of life, death and the universe. The journey of seeking and the accessing of the Grail enable us to become our more developed selves. This truly is the meaning of life.

The symbolism and rites of the Craft offer keys to accessing the Grail. The requirements of magic are useful for developing one’s Will, which is itself a necessary step. Devotion to the Gods is a doorway to communion and mystical experience.
