THE GRAIL LODGE

Our Aims

We are looking for people in Southeast Michigan who have experience in either the Pagan or the Qabalistic magical traditions, or both. We are building a group of committed, trained people working magical ritual together in both traditions over an extended period of time.

We are using the Holy Grail as a unifying symbol. It is our inspiration as we explore ways to blend these two traditions.

We are looking for people who are willing to make the effort and to spend the time to learn about and to work in the tradition less familiar to them. This will result in a team of people able to work in both traditions and who will be to be open to inner insight into ways of blending them.

If you have no ritual experience in either tradition and are intrigued by our proposal and would like to contribute to the building of something new, there may be a place for you here.

People with more experience and possibly their own inner contacts in a particular tradition will have the opportunity to strengthen those contacts and deepen their understanding of them.

We do not take ourselves too seriously and fun is important. Humor is a good antidote to ego inflation.
