Wicca 102 Chalice

by Matrika

The use of the Chalice in Magick is as a feminine symbol. It holds the snifter,

wine, fountain water or ale. IT is all in all purchased but I take seen some

hand-made ones that are delightful. Pewter, Gray, silver conceal, and pottery

are the greatest extent brassy possessions they are finished of. I knew a woman with a

pottery chalice that had uncommon Goddesses from all 5 races of the world

highlighted on all sides of it, naked, with arms connected together. This was her own work.

It was NOT a enormous artists work, but it reminded one of the primitive

cave-paintings upon which our Prepare resurgence draws for other of its history and

so was very light on your feet in its own authentic. It was one of the greatest extent unambiguous

chalices I take ever seen.

Substitute witch I knew, who was ethnically Jewish, cast-off a chalice that had a

enormous proffer of meaning for her. It was her GRANDMOTHERS Gray Kiddush cup

cast-off to collect the SABBATH BRIDE and buy the Shekinah Apparition - anyway female

according to Jewish tradition - modish the home following the elucidation of the

Shabbat candles. As this coupled this picky Witch to her history and

to her grandmothers spirit, it was expecially fitting for her to use it -

specifically back she was an set in motion of one of the offshoots of Gardnerian and

Alexandrian tradition that draws copiously on the Kabbalah; which she emphasized

above even than other H.Priestesses of fill with lineages due to her rather to

put down roots coupled to her previous circumstances.

In some traditions a spending horn is cast-off somewhat of a chalice. It is generally

cast-off by fill with draw from the Norse or Germanic tradition in recreating their

ritual outline, but really such a horn may perhaps be cast-off by someone. You can

make your OWN spending horn far easier than making a chalice. Get a cows

horn - all in all accommodating from farmers or from your taciturn Tandy Skin store -

and make a stand for it with gangster copper or silver specialty that you include on all sides of

it and form modish a stand. You can Benevolent scratch (DO NOT USE Go sour FOR THIS)

the horn or you can bond miserable gems and crystals to the specialty stand or

at all in addition strikes you as private fitting symbolism.

But having a chalice or horn that IS YOU is significant in your work, probably

above so than any other point in Wicca which is so Divine being oriented.
