Runcorn 2008 – Return to Rainbow Hill

Runcorn Hill, Cheshire. September 15th 2008

Kal and I just had to get back to Runcorn Hill to see what had happened to our energetic ‘eggshell’ that we have created to try to slow down the energy-sapping and polluting effects of a nearby line of electricity pylons. Just think about pylons for a minute – how is nature supposed to cope with a constant bombardment of energy like that? There are rumours that it also has negative effects on humans. Sig Lonegren is currently investigating the effects of wi-fi energies on his home town of Glastonbury. I’ll be following those developments closely.

Anyway, in an impending drizzle and fading light we scooted back up the hill after work to meet and do some further investigation of the area. We had prepared questions, and were going to try to get through them as best we could in the time we had.

Questions, questions

Our primary motive was to discover whether the energy we had put into the eggshell had been retained, and was still having a positive effect. Here was our hastily drawn-up list:-

• Show me the boundary of an energetic field (in order to find the edge of the eggshell again)
• Has this energetic field been in existence for less than a week (I know now this was a stupid question)?
• Does this energy field extend vertically? (To try to find a third dimension to the shape)
• Is the field made of neutral / male / female energies?
• Has the strength of the field fluctuated since it was created (also a stupid question)?
• Has the flow of unhealthy energies lessened since the creation of the barrier field?
• Are there any other energies within the barrier that we haven’t dowsed yet?
• Does the energy go into the sky / ground?
• Where are the corresponding ascension and descension points?
• What colour does the energy respond to?
• Is the barrier itself having any negative effect on the environment?

Quite an agenda for a quick visit! Note: this is a variation on the list we originally talked about producing. We have a post hidden away with that list, and we’ll incorporate the two soon.

Kal made a good point when we returned to Runcorn Hill. he said “Did you ask permission of the tree to use its energies when we created that energetic barrier?” Er..no I hadn’t! I was embarrassed! How rude! I quickly went to the birch tree at the end of the mound and made respectful contact. “Permission granted!” I exclaimed. “It’s OK. We were right to do it.” Phew! Sounds crazy and puerile, but we’re not here to utilise the energies, rather to work with them with the kind permission and co-operation of Nature.

The Energetic Eggshell

We started dowsing, quickly as the rain clouds were congregating in the West. The energy barrier was still there, still included our energies that we had used to re-enforce it, but had now shrunk to only surround the mound, whereas previously it had included the birch tree. Oh – had we done something wrong?

The stone I had used to make the connection and invest the energies was now not registering any energy, even though the power centre I had sat on still did. Kal’s centre was still very active too – if anything stronger than last time before we had created the barrier.

I connected with the nemeton, the auric edge, of the birch tree. It was next to the edge of the barrier around the mound, almost touching. I followed the edge again to dowse for the energy line I had used that connected with the energy centre I had sat on. That was still flowing and just as strong. Also good.

We checked that the barrier was still slowing the unhealthy energies from the pylons that entered the mound’s nemeton. It was definitely a weaker flow than before we had created the barrier. We were pleased about that. We had had some positive effect then

This checked, we went in search of anything that we hadn’t already dowsed on the mound. We both found spirals on the edge of the mound, and dowsed for their sources to find we ran into each other! They connected! We confirmed each other’s dowsing, and re-confirmed our own. Then we started thinking in three dimensions – was there a neutral energy line connecting the two that formed an arch in the air? Yes, apparently so, though it was much weaker than those at Arbor Low. The centres also registered for earth energy connections.

It’s worth pointing out that such findings don’t correlate with many a dowser’s diagrams of water courses for underwater streams and fissures. We don’t look for blind springs (or aquastats). In our opinion that’s an interesting phenomenon, but incidental compared with uncovering the patterns and properties of earth energies!

The Feeding Force

At Alderley Edge we had witnessed the so-called Father of the Forest beech tree (a massive thick wide tree) that fed its energies through the folly stone circle there, and out into a circular grove of young birch trees surrounding the stone’s clearing. Here at Runcorn Hill Kal found the same thing. His power centre led him off over the hill into the trees nearby. He returned to show me a picture he had taken of a stone face lying in the centre of the birch grove. Spooky! It looked just like the faces on top of Lligwy chamber’s capstone. And like the face-rock at the entrance of Alderley Edge’s “Bat Cave” (see previous posts). We keep seeing these at such places. Most peculiar.

There was another birch tree next to the mound. I hadn’t really considered it on the last visit, so I dowsed around it looking for energy lines coming out of the tree. None. I could dowse the tree’s nemeton, as could Kal. But there was nothing connecting the tree to the site. So that was both trees were not feeding anything into the site. Because they no longer needed to because of what we had done? We should have asked when we were there, but sometimes such obvious things don’t come to you at the time. We had sort of asked enough questions to know we had done some good.

We went back up to the hillock or mound and stood for a moment wondering what to try next. We tried several more things on our list (see above) but I was getting contrary results for myself and contrary results to Kal’s dowsing too. I felt muddle-headed and dull. What was happening? Kal dowsed a question, and then said “The pylon is having an effect on you.”, matter-of-factly. I did the same, and got a strange response that I didn’t recognise – one rod waving slightly, and the other not moving. We enquired as to whether this was happening to Kal too. “Far less so“, was the response as the rods barely crossed, indicating we were partly right, or that it was partly true. I felt dejected. I knew it was true. I was only half there, and could feel the buzz of the nearby pylon’s energy emissions bombarding my own nemeton. I put the rods down, and walked to the birch tree.

I asked permission to link with the tree, which kindly obliged with a gentle swish of its branches in a sudden gust of wind. I put my hand on the tree’s lower branch and connected. This is so hard to explain, but if you want to connect you only have to clear your mind of fuss and nonsense, and to get into the same kind of mind that suits dowsing – a relaxed gently-focused believing disposition that exudes love, harmony and gratitude. I asked the tree to help me to clear my head of the pylon’s negative effects, and an image of an eggshell surrounded me. An eggshell of light fibres, just like what I had seen when Kal and I had done the barrier work days before. I felt calmed and assured.

When I emerged I felt better. Later Kal told me that he also put an energy barrier around us both at the same time. Who knows which worked, but from that moment on we made a new discovery that made us so glad we had made the effort to stay and protect ourselves. I hadn’t believed in the concept of protection before, but I have to admit that there are circumstances where protection has a purpose, and I will try to learn when those conditions should be taken into account.

I remember that the small gentleman I met in Alderley Edge had raved and enquired about how I used protection. My innocent responses amazed him, and I guess that was a helping hand, even though I rejected it at the time, thinking I was right and just with my concept of an approach that is true being all that was required to work with energies. Man-made interferences need to be taken into account at the very least, even if I’m not yet paranoid enough to suspect ‘evil magicians’ and Satanists of depositing bad-energy at sites because of their rituals. We have found lots of things that cause bad energy – natural and unnatural. I will make a note to take this into account with protection in future, to ensure the consistency of our results.

Rainbow Hill revealed

We were almost at the end of our list, but Kal had one more trick up his wizard’s sleeve 🙂 I spoke the next question for him to try, “What colour does the energy respond to?“.

Kal stated, “Red” and walked from the power centre down towards the birch tree at the back. The rods crossed. He re-did it. Yup. Then he said, “Orange” and began again. When he had tried about seven colours, which seemed to me to be the colours of the rainbow, but not in the order I had been taught them at school. I had a go. I asked Kal to tell me which colours I should look for.

I got a different order of colours, but at roughly the same points as Kal. OK. What did that mean? I brushed past the nemeton of the birch tree, and felt a tingle in my hands. “Let me try that again, Kal!” I said. I re-dowsed the colours, this time going back the other direction. The positions of the colour boundaries had swapped around! Some were also different.

“Chakra colours. From the root to the crown.” Kal said. “Which order should they be in, then?” I asked. “I’ll dowse them in that order.” Kal called them out and I dowsed down the mound again. “Red”, “Orange”, “Yellow”, “Green”. “Blue”, “Indigo”, “Violet”. He called them – I dowsed them in that order. At the same marker points as the other efforts. Now we were homing in on something. We both did it without looking down to see our markers, so that we wouldn’t be drawn to cross when we saw them. Kal got the same as me, at the same places! This was Rainbow Hill now! A light drizzle began to fall. Wha….? Nature’s other chromatic and prismatic substance. 🙂

Then I dowsed in reverse, back up the mound. Again, at each marker the rods crossed in response to the order of colours. What??? Whether we went up or down the order was still R-O-Y-G-B-I-V. Well, if it’s anything like the behaviour of light it WILL be the same order whichever direction you view it from! That led me to the question, “Show me the boundary of green light energy.” I walked over the green colour boundary. Nothing. No response. So, it wasn’t made of light!

The colour bands we had discovered seemed to form a sphere, we felt. Kal dowsed elsewhere at the mound’s edge and found a colour correlation. The colours were formed in a kind of prismatic sphere, like onion skin layers of coloured arches extending across the floor in bands with definite edges. Kal reminds me that there is speculation that auras are like this and some people claim they can detect the colour shapes, depths and strengths of people and places. This now has to be thrown into the mix of our speculations. It feels like another building block to understanding these energies and their purpose.

Making the subtle visible

Are we moving into the area of beginning to unlock the concept of making visible subtle energies? Is this how Marko Pogacnik managed to visualise his three dimensional models of sacred sites the world over? It is a concept that holds promise, but I approach it cautiously. This way be dragons! I tip-toe hesitantly along the paths trodden my many a deluded New-Ager. Am I indistinct from such a stereotype now? I hope so. I hope the sense of a mind still rationally querying, but intuitively growing, comes through the page. Bedlam has nice beds these days, apparently. Fluffy pillows and clean sheets. {sigh}

On our way back to the car and bike we took a slightly easier path down the main steps we had come in on. We passed the wooden statue in the clearing at the bottom and walked off chatting about the findings. Minutes later I pulled us up short: where were we? We didn’t recognise this bit. We picked a path up to some high ground expecting to see the clean-cut park next to the main road. No such lock. We wandered around for ten minutes more, getting no clearer about which direction to go in. Out came the rods one last time to guide us back for half a mile! What the hell happened there? We arrived back at the wooden status to see the path back to the main park visible only fifty feet away down the other path in the clearing. How had we missed that the first time?

All insignificant stuff. All highly dubious, and the product of deluded minds, of course. Unless you try it yourselves and see that we’re far from looney-tunes!

Follow the right path!
