Drombeg stone circle, West Cork, Country Cork, Ireland. Finally, we have arrived at the last of my posts in the Summer Solstice set (for all the series see this link). It has taken much longer than expected, not only due to the number of posts that the visit generated, but also due to issues with … Read More “Summer Solstice 2014 p11 – Understanding the Energy of Hills” »

2012 – Summary of the Year by Gwas
Ancient Sites, Yearly Update

My summary of the year could easily take up several posts, but I’m not going to do that. Instead, I’m going to highlight the many important distinct elements that have taken place this year, and then provide links to the posts that illustrate these elements. On the whole it has been an amazingly packed, dense, active year. … Read More “2012 – Summary of the Year by Gwas” »

Ancient Sites

In this final part of our two-day trip to Iona I will tell you a quick story about an incident that was indeed quite incidental to the rest of the pilgrimage. Pilgrimage? Is that what I’m calling this now? I supose it was, really. I was visiting the land formerly walked by druids, and which … Read More “Ionian Equinox 2012 p8 – Spirit Release Epilogue” »

At the end of the preceding post I had been tainted by a dark energy whilst attempting to dissipate it from a ring of granite stones placed on a promontory of the western shores of Iona. Now I was acting intuitively, allowing myself to be guided towards the steps I needed to take to cure myself of … Read More “Ionian Equinox 2012 p7 – The Giant, the Glaistig and the Omphalos” »

We walked away from Angel Hill. We probably had a discussion for the next ten minutes or more about the definitions of “alien”, “angel” and any energy that could be associated with the two. Although my quest had been to find the alien energy spot that corresponded to the one at Karnak Temple, this had … Read More “Ionian Equinox 2012 p6 – Dun Bhuirg and the Dark Ring” »

At the start of Day 2 on Iona we were greeted by cloudy weather. This can’t be right? Let’s see whether that continues when Kal gets out into the open! He always brings the sun out. Kal was a bit tired from his exploits the previous evening. I’ll let him explain that. I had slept … Read More “Ionian Equinox 2012 p5 – Angel Hill and Other Worlds” »

Considering that we’d only landed on the island a matter of an hour prior to this point a lot had gone on already. This was fixing up to be a worthwhile visit already. Whatever next? As though in a form of light relief I switched my attention away from the ancient mound of the giant … Read More “Ionian Equinox 2012 p3 – The Abbey of Iona” »
