The Chalice as the new symbol of peace in the age of Aquarius

In the Age of Pisces, the Hierarchy sent the olive branch of peace and the dove was Their symbol. In the Age of Aquarius, the new symbol of peace is the Chalice of achievement.

In the Agni Yoga teachings it is said:

“Since times immemorial the Chalice has been a symbol of Service. The gifts of Higher Forces are gathered in the Chalice and given from the Chalice. The symbol of the Chalice has always stood for self-sacrifice. Whoever bears the Chalice bears Achievement. Each lofty deed can be marked by the symbol of the Chalice. Everything most lofty, everything for the good of humanity, should bear this symbol. The Chalice of the Grail, and the Chalice of the Heart which has dedicated itself to the Great Service, is a most Cosmic Magnet. The Heart of the Cosmos is reflected in this great symbol. All images of Heroes of the Spirit may be represented as bearing the Chalice. The whole universe is reflected in the Chalice of the fiery spirit. The Chalice contains the accumulations of centuries which are gathered around the seed of the spirit. It is necessary to accept the affirmation of the Chalice as a great symbol in everyday life. Small children, and all youth, should be taught to think about the Chalice. One should understand the entire diversity of forms of the great symbol, the Chalice.   Fiery World III, 49.

Each cosmic vibration resounds within the Chalice and the Chalice of the heart contains all. Accepting the transmissions from space into the open Chalice is the guarantee of synthesis.
