Readers may recall that the odd time or two, due to our in experience, we have been called back to sites to correct a previous error. Breaking up our personally created Stone Circles at Dyserth Castle being one such example.
My recent (Winter 2010) experiences had me accidentally leaving behind a host of Energetic Shades at Woodhenge. I say accidentally but it was intentioned by the shades. Having discovered this ruse a few days ago, I decided to ask whether there would be any negative consequences of this move.
As usual, such questions are much more appropriately asked at Sacred sites, thus I persuaded Gwas (with a mere email) to go out on a cold (-6) frozen Boxing Day to one of my favourite (though not often visited) sites, Mitchell’s Fold.
Gwas had just returned from two weeks in Canada and this had two beneficial effects:
- He hadn’t been out to a British Sacred site for a while and thus was amenable to a whole day out in the wilds.
- He had plenty of cold weather gear, which as readers know I am lacking in.
Our first stop was going to be an ancient Yew (not The Ancient Yew) but we couldn’t see it from the road and the snow being nearly a foot deep didn’t enthuse us to clamber across fields. So Mitchell’s Fold was our first trek out of the car and boy was it freezing! Minus 6 as I said.
We made our way to the kingstone and then into the circle itself. I was not surprised to find that (in the winter) my best location in the site had changed to a stone some three away from my usual (summer) “best place to be”.
This also happened to be the place to ask questions so as Gwas prepared a ceremony for his work I walked back and to by this stone trying to discern whether I had erred in my Shade move.
Interestingly, Gwas commented that perhaps I had done Barnstaple a favour by removing them from the town center. To which I responded by asking him, what would the effects be of placing a huge new energy in a sacred place like Woodhenge?
In between trying to keep my hands warm (as the song lyrics go) and staying out of the occasional blast of cold wind I managed to figure out that. At the moment at least no damage was/is being done. However as the Sun months grow then consequences would be more profound. Would they be good or bad? Again this was for some reason undecided? How would they be decided? Alas not a questions the rods can answer.
Again, I was left with the frustration of not knowing. I will be honest, I am tempted to just go and get them shades and drop them off where they belong (or rather where they were before).
