Belas Knap – leaving doubt behind

Doubt is a soul sucking vampire! Harsh words, but really, wouldn’t you agree? In a previous post I talked about the Uncertainty Principle of Sacred Journeys. This principle would naturally increase doubt, but it would also naturally increase faith too, right? Do we have a choice as to which, I wonder.

Chris wanted to visit a sacred place that was a heck of a drive for a day out. Some 3 hours drive in fact. Still who am I to say no? So, one fine late Spring day we set off for the Cotswold and a sacred place called Belas Knap.

We arrived around lunch time and the weather was beautiful. Climbing the path up to the sacred place was a true delight. The views and the feel of the place was amazing. As we walked through the woods towards the sacred mound I could feel the need for some kind of preparation. I took out my dowsing rods and they confirmed that I needed to prepare before entering the place.

Churches and Temples, How To, Quickie, Trees

In the previous post (testing the universe part 1) you saw me leaving the Ancient Yew tree at 4am in the morning, heading into a day that it had promised, I would get a lesson and an opportunity. Well, it is still that same day and only a few hours later I was at work … Read More “Testing the Universe part 2 of 2” »

When walking a sacred path one is often (if not always) asked to walk on faith. Which is problematic for most people because we’re not brought up to nor are we (Darwinian) designed to, walk on the invisible that is. For example, one of our greatest assets is the ability to learn. Learning is useful … Read More “Testing the Universe part 1 of 2” »

Courage and the Golden Key Beltane 2014 – 16

Faery, Glyphs and Wards, Pilgrimage, Signs and Synchronicity

I am convinced without a shadow of a doubt that Brittany is a land of the Fay. Although I don’t get the sense that they are the same as what one might find in Ireland (I wonder if Fay have country divisions?) As I walked deeper into the woods (Gwas had vanished on some quest … Read More “Courage and the Golden Key Beltane 2014 – 16” »

I am writing this post because I lost a bet. When I last went out with Kal to Derbyshire a few weeks ago the clouds were thick and black. All the way there we had persistent rain threatening to make our day out a rather damp one. We didn’t have much time and I only had tow things on … Read More “Arbor Low 2011 – Sunshine and penance” »
