Walking the Ancient Path in a Modern World
A forum to discuss books on subjects related to druidry and dowsing.
Wiltshire, 14th May, 2010 As my wife and I were passing by on our way down the the Isle of Wight for a holiday, I found that I had sufficient time to take in one ancient site. Which one would it be? Well, given my recent rejuvenation in the study of crop circles it had to be … Read More “Old Sarum and the Chakra Crop Circle” »
In this post I’d like to talk about some of the theories of a man called Viktor Schauberger. I found that I wanted to write a great deal about this man as I sympathised with so many of his views about the way Nature works, and the appalling treatment of Nature by mankind.

With the exception of … Read More “Robert J Stewart: The Life and Mysticism of Merlin” »

I wasn’t quite so sure about whether I was really interested in earth energies at that stage, or even what they were, in … Read More “Notes from a Highlander: David Cowan’s work” »
In August of 2008 Kal and I visited several sou-terrains (chambers constructed by the placement of supporting stones and a large capstone, often beneath alternating layers of clay and earth). At each site we visited we asked the dowsing rods whether the purpose of the site was the burial of the dead. Our responses led … Read More “Transformation Chambers: Winter research 2008” »
