The Mysteries are the unending cycle of birth and re-birth, the descent into darkness and return into light. In The Mysteries, Janet Farrar, Gavin Bone and Stewart Farrar explain how the re-enactment of myth can serve to illustrate psychological and psychic inner realities, and demonstrate the use of myths and symbols in a ritual setting. The purpose of the Witch's Book of Shadows is discussed in depth, and the historical origins of the book are also described. This film also reveals, for the first time ever, a remarkable technique used by High Priestesses to facilitate the union with the Goddess during the Drawing Down the Moon ritual.
The Mysteries greatly expands upon the Inner Workings of ritual within a Wiccan context, and world-famous Witches Janet and Stewart Farrar, and Gavin Bone disclose in detail information gained in a several lifetimes of the practice of the Wiccan Priesthood. |
