Explore the mysteries and magick of the cauldron and the goddesses and gods associated with this sacred tool. Looking at some of the oldest forms of the Cauldron—from Arthurian lore and the progression of the Holy Grail to the vessels of alchemists—work with the powers of the sacred cauldron in sequence, using the myth of transformation and rebirth from the goddess Cerridwen and her bardic son Taliesin as a system of initiatory magick. The mystery of the Mother and child, of life, death, and rebirth, is at the heart of these teachings.
