11,00 

The fantastic art of Anne Stokes is brought to a new, magical dimension with our exclusive colour-changing cauldron mugs. Just pour a hot beverage inside and watch as a halo of sabbat symbols are slowly illuminated behind a yellow Imbolc dragon. 500ml capacity. Hand wash only. Do not microwave.

The symbol of Ostara – representing the Spring Equinox – sits atop the wheel. This marks a time of new beginnings and is symbolised by the iridescent serpent-like dragon coiled tightly around its egg.

The symbol of Beltane sits at the top of the wheel and marks the Gaelic May Day festival. Special bonfires are lit and it is said that the flames, smoke and ashes have protective powers.

Litha marks the Summer Solstice – the longest day and shortest night of the year. As light reaches its peak and from then on begins to fade, the oriental style dragon clutching a ball of fire illustrates this beautifully.

The symbol of Lammas, representing the first of the grain harvests, sits atop the wheel and marks the festival known as ‘Lughnassad’ which inspired great gatherings in Pagan culture.

The symbol of the Autumn Equinox, Mabon, sits atop the wheel and marks the second of the Pagan harvest festivals. The yellow and green dragons symbolises the colour of corn which was harvested on a huge scale during the second Pagan harvest.

Sitting above the dragon’s horns lies the symbol of Samhain, marking the festival ‘Hallows Eve’ which is the final harvest of the year and a time for feasts where the souls of deceased kin were beckoned to attend and a place set at the table for them.

Above the dragon’s wings lies the symbol of Imbolc, marking the halfway point between the Winter Equinox and the Spring Equinox. The light yellow dragon illustrates the return of light in the world as Spring approaches and days begin to lengthen.

The traditional symbol for the Winter Solstice, Yule, sits above the dragon’s horns which resemble razor sharp icicles. Shards of ice spread from the dragon’s icy breath above the snowflake pattern incorporated into its scales.
