HALLOWQUEST
Exploring Celtic Mysteries & Arthurian Traditions in our 21st Century: 12-month Journey starting December 2020
What is a Hallowquest?
A HALLOWQUEST is the inner search for the 4 sacred objects of the Quest: The STONE (Earth), the SWORD (Air), the SPEAR (Fire) and the GRAIL CUP (Water). A “Hallow” is the Celtic word for “Holy”.
At the Festival of Halloween, 31 st .October, which is the start of the Celtic New Year, this world & the Otherworlds are at their closest, joined together. This is what is meant by “holy”. And in their tradition, the 4 sacred or holy objects are the magical Stone of Wisdom, the Sword, the Spear & the Grail Cup.
A HALLOWQUEST is a time honoured Celtic tradition of following the path of the Sun through the Zodiac, celebrating each Hallow as the Sun enters Capricorn in December & starts the STONE HALLOW, followed by Aries in March, the Spring Equinox & the start of the SWORD HALLOW, the SPEAR HALLOW at Midsummer & the GRAIL CUP in September at the time of the Autumn Equinox.
