What are the Soul of the Samurai Relics?
Placed before you are 8 totemic Relics, objects with grounded metaphysical power to give you direct access to the ways and virtues of the ancient Samurai. Each contains a uniquely blended alloy of kuro shibuichi, a Japanese alloy made from gold, copper, and silver.
These Limited Edition Relics carry the 8 hallmark virtues of the Warrior spirit.
Crafted by master goldsmith Kedrik Winter Wolf through a process of melting, casting, pressing, forging, shaping, and finally the chasing of these sacred sigil forms into the metal itself. Bound to real leather for great comfort and ease of wear as you go about your days on the path of self mastery. Each relic represents many hours of precise metalworking and over 14 years of expertise and study into alchemy and esoterica.
Each Relic channels a particular virtue into the collection, but make no mistake: they all contain part of the same shakudo, an ancient Japanese base-alloy used in all Shibuichi recipes. Through this, they are united in their connection to the Samurai Way.
Regardless of which Relic you claim, you will be connected to all 8 virtues.
The Origin of Excellence...
Alchemical Metallurgy is a cornerstone of the Japanese culture stretching back into antiquity. However, it was not until the 16th century that the Kuru Shibuichi alloys were integrated into crafting the fittings of the Samurai's sword. For a time, before the Meiji reforms when carrying a sword was outlawed, these master smiths created some of the most potent objects in the history of totemic alchemy.
In these Relics Is the rebirth of that ancient perfection. Through this Soul of the Samurai Series, Rituals is reincarnating these masterful alloys in 8 unique forms, each with its own powerful sigil to anchor an aspect of the way of the Warrior for your self-mastery.

Exceptional Craftsmanship
Energetically imbued objects made by the hands of a true master with adept clarity in his craft and embodied expertise in self mastery.
The MetaRelic you made, The Ring of Creative Power, is in constant use, consciously or unconsciously.
I still wear it on a regular basis, because it reminds me of the intention I assigned to it in the ritual we designed together, to strengthen and cultivate my own creative power. I don’t think the ring would have half as much power without the ritual.
This was one of the most powerful experiences I’ve ever had. The beautifully crafted ring itself is a gem.

Founder of Keys to Creativity
I've purchased a small hoard of totems from Cedric, a few sets of cuffs, an intuition talisman and some customwork. In addition, I've been blessed by some deep conversations with him about his craft.
I've studied mysticism and metaphysics for nearly 20 years and it's clear to me that Cedric is a master of his skills.
The jeweler skills alone would be impressive, but to add the clarity of energetics, history and lore, and ability to actual imbue a physical object with the intended energy? I've not found that anywhere else.
I think any serious spiritual, metaphysical, magical or esoteric practitioner needs tools to help them along the way, I know I do. I'm so grateful for Cedric and his work for creating metaphysically functional masterworks.

Cedric’s perspective and insight easily draws me back to my own nature.
Talking through my “stuff” with him made me focus back to the roots of what’s important to me. I was amazed at how quick and natural working through things with Cedric went.
And this Soultracker Totem is the perfect compass to anchor that process into my own two hands.

The Call to excellence is not to be taken lightly...
How do I know this Relic is right for me?
At the core of every Warrior's path are the foundations of Instinct and Intuition. If you are searching for answers, then you have already begun your journey with these Relics. Deliberation on the question of "am I worthy" is only truly answered by the Soul of the Samurai himself. What does your heart tell you?
Is this truly going to help me in my quest for self mastery?
Powerful mystics, magicians and shamen throughout time have had items imbued with power that helped them become masters of their life and purpose. Are these totems alone, enough to make the magic happen? No, of course not. Will they help you significantly if you're already on the path? Yes.
How do I know which Sigil is right for me?
While each Relic stands as a pillar for a specific value, they have all been metaphysically bound together. You will have access to all virtues regardless of which Relic you claim. Here are the particular sentiments of each glyph:
-
Sensemaking is the synergy of 3 core aspects to interpreting and understanding the world around you: Instinct as the first and deepest sense of your Path and the choices before you. Intellect; the mind and home of rationality, logic, and reason. And Intuition, the synergy of each in conjunction with the deepest subconscious and higher awareness.
-
Equinimity as represented by the Zen concept of Ensō, is the profound acknowledgement that all is one and one is all. It is a state of appreciation and acceptance of the universe as it is in all of it's darkness and light; in the void and in the material.
-
Integrity of the Self in relation to the Other. This is the virtue of recognizing not only what is you and not you, but also what is yours to do and not do. An understanding of the separation between people and what unites them, and the wisdom to navigate those dynamics with clarity and truth.
-
Right Relationship with the Path is essential for joyful appreciation and experience of your Path. This Relic holds the capacity for ease and flow through all relationships, be it with others, with the environment, or with yourself. This is the mark of honesty and the carrier of Patience.
-
Presence and Perspective are essential to the Warrior. This is the artful embodiment of participation in life, while holding perspective of the bigger picture and the deeper meaning. As the saying goes, 'Be in the world, but not of it."
-
Leadership is at once the capacity to direct those that choose to follow you with consideration and good strategy, while recognizing when a task is yours to do alone. A true Leader artfully balances this dynamic in every moment such that his people will always move wisely along the Way.
-
Courage and Composure are delicately balanced in the Warrior's Way. It is one thing to charge boldly into circumstances, it is another to do so with the calm presence of self-control. This is the virtue of maintaining discipline of yourself in every moment as you stride boldly into the unknown of your Path.
- Discernment is the final virtue of this series, and serves as both the strength to understand the journey and a gateway through which every Warrior must pass. Like the glyph of Sensemaking -which is internal- this is the art of understanding. As a mirror though, discernment is of the most external and furthest reaches of yourself. It is the carrier of Empathy, Compassion, and a willingness to continue on your Path, that it may be bright and brimming with beauty.
Are the Sigils also Japanese?
No, actually. As with all Ritualis objects, the sigil and glyph work draws from a diverse mythographic basis, but particularly from Norse and Icelandic. Kedrik also draws from numerology, alchemical, and divine geometry. In this case, the Sigils are drawn almost entirely from the Norse Elder Futhark.
With that said, the Soul of the Samurai Relics are the first Ritualis product to also draw from Kedrik's own rune set. These particular symbols are intended to fill in gaps in the framework of metaphysics that he utilizes in his work, and will be included more so in future items.
