Gwas and I were coming to the end of a fabulous day in the Cumbrian hills. As the penultimate sacred site to visit, Gwas had chosen, the Lacra stone circle(s) near Kirksanton. The map showed that it was atop a steep hill. So it was with determined hearts that we took up the stroll. We climbed and we climbed until finally, when we had all but given up, we reached the summit to find not one, but three stone circles.
Two of the circles were about 100 metres apart and the third seemed to ring the inner two. Gwas went off to examine the nearer of the two whilst my curiosity was peaked by the one that lay further away.
As I approached it I felt like I had bounced off an energy barrier around it, and as I brought my dowsing rods out and explored, I realised that it wasn’t a barrier but a stream of energy flowing into the circle from the rise to the left of it. Curious. I directed my rods to follow the energy stream to its source and was led, bouncing from rock to rock up the hill in a lazy zig-zag (female line) up the slope of yet another hill.
Note that although the first hill had exhausted me, this climb was exhilarating.
I finally reached the top of the hill and found that the energy source was a neat little spiral just off the centre of the hill top. Having checked to find that it was a good place to be, I sat myself down and looked outward across the plains and slightly adjacent to the Sun’s position.
After a while I spied Gwas heading towards my circle and called down to him to see if he could find the flow and follow me up. Gwas being the more able and diligent energy tracker noted that there were three flows coming up the hill and followed another one that sourced itself some five feet behind me, having followed a similar (wavy) path up.
After some time exploring the energies at the top of the rise, Gwas declared that tempus was a fugiting and so called a time to depart. After a few moments of gratitude I followed him down the hill, asking the rods to take me along a fortuitous energy stream. Which they obliged.
As I meandered (technical term for following an energy line) down the uppermost hill, suddenly the rods took me around a stone. At first I thought they were going to just circumnavigate the stone and continue, instead they went into a deep spiral around it. Was I meant to sit on this stone? Yes. I did so and shouted to Gwas that I needed to sit on this stone. He continued on collecting his gear from the original circle he had placed it near.

After a few moments and noting that Gwas had packed and was moving away, I got up and attempted to engage with the energy stream again, only to be led and spiral around the same stone again. In resignation, I sat upon it again and pondered my quandary. As I thought about it I noticed that I was facing the sun and that energy was flooding into me. My intuition kicked in and I realised that I was getting a charge from the sun energy. But it could only feed in at a rate I could handle. Was there anything I could do to speed it up? Again, intuitively I reached into my pocket and pulled out the Rose Quartz point I had been carrying around me for weeks. I held it in the palm of my hand, between me and the sun.
Nothing happened, or at least I felt no change occur. Then another intuitive action occurred to me. I got a connection with the layers of my aura and instead of opening them up I created vibrational filters in the outer layers. Sorry, but that’s the best way I can describe it. As I did this, energy flooded into the crystal, and wow! Was it powerful or what! Within moments, I felt that the crystal was full to bursting point and I switched off the feed.
Word-ology: In describing the above, words are literally escaping me. We do what we can with the words we know. For instance, to say that crystal was filled to bursting, what does that mean? Was it filled with energy? Would it explode if I continued? Had it stored the energy alignment of the Suns energy at that time and place. See? That simple sentence could be describing all of these and more…If you know what I mean, then you know what I mean.
Again I took up the stream and this time it led off back to the stone circles below and I was off. Indeed, when I say I was off I mean that quite literally. I sped off down the hill at a speed that had me pass Gwas a moment later and heading down the hill at almost full sprint. There are a couple of times in the past when I have been so soaked with sun energy that I had the energy to run around the hills like a goat possessed. Mere minutes later and without a breath of tiredness or fatigue I was at the bottom of the hill and waiting for Gwas to arrive. As he did so I pointed out to him how I was feeling.
It was like having the energy to do anything, but the soberness to realise that my physical body would not stand the strain. In essence I could have run all evening for miles and miles. But at some point, my body would have collapsed underneath me. Sun energy in a Sun aligned person…A dangerous mix if not tempered with sobriety.
As I recall the experience now I also recall another similar incident from a couple of years ago when I bumped into a dark lighter. I will post that up soon.

Thanks Gwas,
Most helpful as usual. I’m booked on your dowsing course, and looking forward to meeting you.

That’s fantastic news! I hope you enjoy the day and get something worthwhile from it. It will cater for both beginners and the more advanced too, so you’ll have fun, I’m sure. Can’t wait to meet you š

Hi, I’ve been checking various maps and websites to find the Kirkstones stone circles, with no luck. A search on Kirkstone doesn’t find anything. I know the area you are in but no luck on the circle. Is it “Sunken Kirk Swinside Fell”?
Hi Serpenteer.
Kal is actually talking about the Lacra stone circles which are above the village of Kirksanton in south-west Cumbria. Sadly, geography (like navigation) is not one of his strong suits!

Hope that helps set the context better. I’ll correct his post.
