Part two of our Winter Solstice story. In this tale I discover something quite lovely about the nature of trees. We had just finished at Thornborough Henge which had been a fascinating and enlightening experience. We wondered whether we would be able to top the day, but better was yet to come. On our way … Read More “Winter Solstice 2014 p2 – The Holly and The Ivy” »

This is the first in a short series of tales about my journey into the darkest depths of Yorkshire for the Winter Solstice this year.

And lastly…Element of Fire – check. Amber for Wand – check. Sideline energy transference task – check. Was there anything else that I had to do to conclude my Cairo visit?

Energy work, Quests, Wand

Unbelievable. I agree! I came to Egypt on a quest for Amber and my thinking was that it would be a piece of Amber resin. Maybe in some jewellery or in some crystal shop and what does it end up being.

Readers will know, I have been on some amazing quests over the years. They will also know that a few quests have fallen by the wayside too. One of these looked to be the quest to create a Wand. I know, Harry Potter and all that. Alas, the Universe does seem to be insisting that … Read More “Amber in Cairo – Egypt 6” »

It was my third day in Cairo and I had decided to chill.

Still, I decided that today would be a day of … Read More “Energy restoration at Djoser pyramid – Egypt 5” »
