The Chalice

	The Chalice or Cup is a symbol of Water, and one of the many symbols of the Goddess. Some would say that the chalice hints at the same symbolic meanings as the Grail does: "The quest for the Grail is not a quest to win love, but a quest to give love. This is the message of all cups - to give. A cup may have water poured into it, but only holds it until it may be bestowed. This is the image of Aphrodite, Kuan Yin, Mary, of all water Goddesses, the givers of refreshment to the thirsty spirit."(1)
