I used to describe myself as an Energy worker but then the realisation came that we are all workers of energy, whether we know it or not – and so the term went into retirement.
This blog is all about the energies that are found at stone circles – although we have digressed slightly into energies at graves and in woods and tree energies. I do come to wonder though if these energies are related to or are the same as other forms of energy.
So, here are some of the known forms of energy we could be dealing with:-
Dragon lines – these are the energies that surround the world of Feng Shui and are not only present on a geographical perspective but also on a local – in your home – perspective too. I would argue that the energy lines we dowse herein are the same as Dragon Lines. One particular instance comes to mind when Gwas dowsed the energies coming from the Nine Ladies circle down the side of a cliff/ravine. This is in line with what a Feng Shui geomancer would discover.
Chakra energies – closely related to – if not the same as Dragon Line energies – this energy or Chi in Chinese is the energy that flows through the body. Well more accurately chakras are vortices caused by the flow of Chi – but hey – same difference! Is this energy what we are dowsing too?
Auric energy – we have dowsed each others auras in terms of finding the boundaries – but whether the aura is formed by Chi or some other energy? Questions questions!
Prana, Ki and other variants – these I would lump in with Chi – Ki is the Japanese form and Prana Indian.
Reiki – Are practitioners channelling the same energy we dowse? This is definitely an area that we could explore. Some stone circles respond to questions and practises related to healing.
Reflexology – contrary to some opinions is based on an energy form rather than some bio-chemical/nervous system type theory. Is this the same as the energy we dowse? By the way – reflex points don’t correspond to acupuncture pressure points and so Reflexology and Chi don’t map onto each other.
Homeopathy – is based on the energetic residue of stuff that is enhanced and captured by the energies of water? Scientifically loopy but…what’s the relationship with our energy?
Bach Flowers – again using the energetic properties of water to capture the energetic essence of plants and sunlight. Is this the energy that we are dowsing? Perhaps we can dowse some Bach flowers? An interesting area to experiment with. Tree essenses also fall into this category.
Crystal energies – We have played with the energies of crystals a little and my feeling is that here we have some really interesting and related work to the stuff we do at stone circles – stones are crystals are stones? Many stone circles employ specific types of geological rock that may have properties associated with their crystalline structure.
EMF – going into the scientific realm – a lot of dowsers suggest that what is being detected is some kind of electro-magnetic force or such a force created by faults or running water? Baloney? Or something in it? Hugh Newman’s “Little Wooden Book Of Earth Energy Lines” (and many others) explores this concept with some good illustrations of a geomagnetic survey of Stonehenge.
Emotional energies – T.C.Lethbridge said that emotional energies can be left in places to be picked up later by dowsers – is the energy we are detecting left by ancient (wo)mans work?
Esoteric energies – here I include angels, entities and any other kind of self aware energy. Is this what we are playing with. Is it directing us? Or are we just detecting its presence.
Dark matter/energy – are we tapping into what scientist say most of the universe is made of i.e. dark matter/energy? Why not?
Others may come to mind and will be added as soon as I invent them
