Twelve Steps to Creating a Sacred Site

Posted on June 19, 2014June 4, 2014 By Gwas 6 Comments on Twelve Steps to Creating a Sacred Site
Hedge Druidry

As a prelude to what is to come, I think this is the most important post I have ever written. If you have any interest in megalithic sites, then I think you will enjoy this, and I am hoping it will generate a lot of discussion.

One fine evening Kal and I had an outing to Mitchell’s Fold stone circle. We had been talking about it for a few weeks, but the fine weather finally goaded us into going. Neither of us had an agenda, which seems to be the theme of the year so far, but as Kal said, we had nothing to do because we’d done it all at Brittany!

On my approach to the site I feel that I should begin at the King Stone outlier. The site looks nude with all of the bracken removed and just starting to grow back. I feel rather exposed – just me and the stone with no vegetation to hide behind. As I try to get into the right state of mind I am plagued by the noise of trials bikes and a helicopter buzzing around. Luckily they soon get bored and disappear.

For the first time my dowsing rods lead me to one of Kal’s usual power centres in order for me to ask about my current quest – to discover how sacred sites are created. Kal objects, but gallantly allows me to stay there, as I got there first. I begin meditating and am encouraged to invite Ash – my spirit guide – to join me, as he has a strong interest in this topic.

I connect with the Spirit of Place (Genius Loci), and ask if I can discover more about the quest. I am encouraged to explain what I know so far, which throws me a little bit – I am not prepared for this! P pause, think, then talk about my vision of a giant removing a pillar of stone from an existing site; then he moves twelve steps; then… “Stop! Go back!“. I hear a conversation in my mind. It’s not “move twelve steps”, it’s “follow twelve steps“. It’s a journey through a process, not a distance to travel.

Momentarily the shock throws me out of the trance state. Dammit! I must learn to control my emotions better! When my mind has calmed down I decide to go back into trance to see if the Spirit of Place can help me understand more about this revelation. The dialogue continues….

  • Can you tell me the 12 steps to creating a site? NO.
  • Do I already know some of them? YES, three.

I consider the process. Here are the steps I know about:-

  1. A key stone is removed to destroy the old construction
  2. A distance is travelled to move to a new site (now I know it’s not twelve ‘steps’)
  3. A new site is chosen based on some criteria which I don’t know yet.

Correct. I take a punt and suggest a fourth step is

4. The stone is replaced at the new site to begin construction? YES.

Oh! So, you’ve just confirmed that I now know four steps. CORRECT. So…. I can make a guess as to the steps, and you’ll confirm or deny them? YES. Well, then – let the guessing game begin!

6 Beltane 2014 – The Kerzerho Kinship Engine

It’s hard to believe that this was only the end of the second day in Brittany. We seemed to have accomplished so much, and yet were both about to have our little cotton socks blown off by the next site that I had lined up. It was a new one, and as Kal excitedly pointed out – it was “Access Level 5”. It was on the south side of the town of Erdeven, which is a few miles north of Carnac, where we had just been for the afternoon. The site is collectively called The Kerzerho Alignments.

For me I prefer sites which require a little effort to get to. They are often more unspoilt, energetically. I needn’t have worried. Despite the car park (well done, our French cousins – great facilities yet again) being almost full of cars, the few spots of rain which occasionally drips for a few seconds soon causes them all to run for metallic cover and roll away. Goodbye! Goodbye, hardy visiting folk! Be mindful of your million Euro hairstyles as you rush between car and hotel, won’t you?! Watch those designer threads don’t dissolve in the light drizzle. We zip up our light waterproofs and head into the quieter side whilst the scurrying on the easier side ensues.

We have to use the Tufty Club‘s road safety messaging to get across the busy D781 road. It was worth the near whiplash and bristling tails, as we find ourselves amongst a collection of giant stones, feeling like lost pawns in a giant game of megalithic chess. As we walk towards them we both spot two “obvious” portal stones. Well, when you’ve visited hundreds of sites and dowsed them for energies, then you begin to recognise common features instinctively.We recognise portal stones, and my recent interest in “seal energy” comes straight to mind. I wonder whether this portal has an energetic seal on it?

SEAL ENERGY: This is a form of energy which has been deliberately encoded by human visitors. The energy has been “spun” and “laid out” in such a way as to form a specific path. If the path can be followed and the numerous power centres (hot spots) are neutralised, then the “seal” is unlocked, and the portal opens FOR THE PERSON WHO UNLOCKED IT (i.e. the seal isn’t “generally” open).

Opening the seal and walking through an unlocked portal seems to open up the site to a lot more interesting phenomenon. Instead of merely visiting, now the entrant becomes interactive with the energies of the site. It’s like the site “knows” you. Almost like having a pass-code which lets you get into the VIP area!

There are seals on two sets of portal stones, we find. One set on each side of the road. Several spots needed to be visited to unlock the seals, but once done we find that we are quickly able to connect to and blend with the energies of the stones. We are free to work as we please. I choose to ask about the recent new quest discovered at the Kercado Tumulus only a few hours earlier.  That quest is to find out why the giant in my vision pulls a stone out of one site and throws it to form another. As I touch one of the larger stones while standing in a power centre, I begin to get information flooding in….
