Anglesey Megalithic Tour 2015 P2

In the second part of my Anglesey Megalithic Tour story we are heading out along the northern coast of the island in search of more wonderful sites. We’re now back on the agenda, and so the next destination is the Soar Stone.

We chased the edges of the deep rain clouds which had been flirting with us all day long. For some reason we were being spared the rain that everyone else on the mainland was getting. The sun travelled with us.

The Soar Stone – Standing stone – Llanfaethlu, LL65 4NL

We parked at the recently renovated Black Lion Inn just outside of the village on the A5025. I have to say – they’ve done a fantastic job with the place! It looked modern, yet inviting. I think it may well be the stopping point for future tours of the island. Now, I don’t just take people to places I like. The Soar Stone and I are quite incompatible, yet it was on the agenda due to its huge subtle energy power. I might not like it, but I respected it!

The girls bask in the male power of the Soar Stone

I invited everyone to use the technique for approaching this site as they would with any other – feel for the boundary; find an entry point; wait and ask for permission; enter and do what feels natural. Some of the girls couldn’t resist jumping into the field and touching the stone. They were feeling the immense male energy line that passes through the stone along its flat edges.

By now the group were starting to ask questions like, “Where would the line go to?” and “Why would the stone be positioned here?”. All good questions, and I invited them to try to discover their own answers by meditating with the stone. That, and some serious map reading, might reveal the answers they were wanting!

As I have found with other male-line standing stones the energy is being directed towards a place of military significance. If the line is traced on a map the energy is being pointed to a fort on the west coast at Porth Trefadog and extending through a tumulus and an old church ending close to the mouth of the River Gogh on the east side of the island near Dulas.

Summer 2015 – P7 – The Light of Brighid

In the last of my Summer Solstice posts (can you believe we’ve generated so much from one weekend?) we are taken on an escorted tour of a sacred site. We have left David at Fourknocks, but Regina has stayed with us to show us one more site: The Shrine of Brigid at Faughart.

We arrived at the shrine site and parked alongside a bus and another car. Throughout the period we visited the car park would get busier, and the site more populous. Regina mentioned that most of the visitors were from the traveller community. The site was quite unusual – a mixture of ancient stones with healing properties and a clutter of modern …. stuff… that seemed to be aimed at… er, informing the visitor and guiding them on their sacred journey in praise of this popular saint. We ignored all that and instead began to dowse for the most energetic locations.

Shrine to Brigid or cricket pavilion?

The casual visitor, or veen the dedicated one, would be led from the bottom to the top via a numbered procession of artefacts and sacred spots. The idea seemed to be that they would perform devotions  and request healing specific to their ailment from certain locations. Regina asked if we could like to travel from bottom to top or top to bottom (in number sequence). We suggested that we would actually ignore all that, and we wandered off using the dowsing rods to suggest our route.

After the impossible event that had just occurred I was excited to see what would happen next. I had placed the Coin (that had the ability to read the hearts of others) and a quartz crystal on top of the Seat of the King. The king walked into the mound. What I mean is that … Read More “Of Fay, Magician, Djinn and Dragons p3 Solstice 2015” »

After playing with three of the chambers of the Loughcrew the rods had brought me to the central mound and what looked like a seat. I was about to sit on it when I felt that it was already occupied. By what? I wondered. Taking up a position of to the side somewhat I tuned … Read More “Magic of the Fay p2 Solstice 2015” »

Our climb up to Dinas Emrys had been an unexpected surprise and not a good one. That tale of test is told here. However as we reached the base of the hill that is Dinas Emrys, I heard and then saw a bee buzz by. If you read this post from last year. In fact … Read More “Dinas Emrys part 2 Bees, Crows, Fay and the Wand Ingredients” »

We had just completed the arduous climb to Moel Ty Uchaf which had surprised me with two things. How easy the climb had been and that I had gained another ingredient to The Wand. The day before I had suggested another site to Chris, Dinas Emrys. My reasons for this suggestion were two-fold. Primarily Chris was … Read More “Dinas Emrys part 1 The Test” »

Charity and a Knight

Churches and Temples, Quickie, Tombs and Monuments

I have to wonder, “Is anything random anymore?” Here I am walking randomly through the streets of Florence. I was on a high as I had just completed a year long quest for the Four Elements. This was basically some down time, so to speak. I wandered the picturesque streets eating ice cream (of course) … Read More “Charity and a Knight” »
