 In this, the second of two solo episodes with host Amanda Yates Garcia on "The Grail Knight", we discuss the mythologies of the Knight of Cups. Specifically, we focus on the Celtic legend of the Grail Knight Percival, his travels through the Forest of Arroy (the Forest of Adventure), and his encounter with the Fisher King. We talk about the Well Maidens, and the Wasteland. We describe the pursuit of the Grail as one of the founding myths of Western Civilization, because it describes the desecration of the sacred, but also prophesies what medicine must be found in order to  restore the world to right order. We give study questions, and also rituals you can use when themes related to the Knight of Cups show up in your reading, or your life.

The Knight of Cups is guided by visions. They’re spiritual, on a quest for meaning and purpose. This person is an artist, a poet, they’ve been wounded, they’ve become wise, they’re pursuing their dreams. If you get this card in a reading, it’s an invitation to get curious about your inner world and and the inner world of others. In this, the first of two Amanda solo episodes on "The Grail Knight", we discuss the basic meaning of the knight, correspondences, pop culture references, and all the reasons why you don't want to date this Knight if they come up in reverse.
