I seem to have moved out of my Water phase that I was in earlier in the year. I am quite firmly in the arena of earth spirits at the moment with visits to caves and encounters with earth spirits. Here is another such encounter. This encounter happened a week after my Derbyshire cave encounter with a … Read More “Beaudesert Castle 2011 – Encounters with an Earth Spirit” »

A new beginning Gwas had dowsed the premium location for Imbolc celebrations and it turned out, much to both our chagrin as Anglesey. We had been to this rather bleak isle a few weeks ago and would have preferred any place – and I mean any – in the country. However who are we to … Read More “Imbolc 2010 ~ The Anglesey pilgrimage” »

For some time now I have been trying to get closer to the spirit of Merlin. In the fabulously detailed and helpful book “Walkers Between the Worlds” there is a section dealing with such encounters.

Good day, Due to lack of many field notes and failing memories as well as the amount that both Gwas and I cover in one day – we often find slight discrepancies between our recollection of things – in the main though this can often be put down to our attention to differing detail. With … Read More “Dyserth 2009 – the Kal perspectives” »

I had taken my motorbike in for an MOT in the morning, and had the rest of the day booked off work. As it was a day that looked promising for good weather I decided to use the remaining sunshine to visit Anglesey again. I had biked over there a month ago to see what … Read More “Anglesey 2008 – Return to Bryn Celli Ddu” »
