Occult Mead: Essays on Runes, Grails, and the Round Table Sun Wheel

Esotericism and a Real Solution to the Mystery of Wewelsburg’s Infamous Sun Wheel Icon!

In these nine essays, Eirik Westcoat explores a variety of topics, including free inquiry, moldavite, Odin’s hanging on the World Tree, runes, the Grail, initiatory orders, and Traditionalism, while giving a glimpse into his own occult journey. And in the final essay, he tackles the greatest unsolved mystery of Nazi occultism: the real identity of the sun wheel icon in Wewelsburg Castle, the spiritual home of Himmler’s SS. It’s been wrongly known as the so-called “Black Sun” for decades, but that ends now! Read here the first-ever comprehensive explanation for the symbol that is entirely level-headed and eminently plausible. Westcoat links it to the Grail and the Arthurian Mythos, revealing the Round Table Sun Wheel that has been there all along.
