The Soul Powers of Five, Seven and Eleven – Part 1

The Soul Powers of Five, Seven and Eleven – Part 1
Modern Druidry

Introduction When I ask the powers that be (the ones that reveal knowledge previously lost or hidden from me through the medium of my dowsing rods) I can often begin down a road whose destination is so far over the horizon, and along so many potential paths, that I initially believe I can never reach … Read More “The Soul Powers of Five, Seven and Eleven – Part 1” »

Mid-Summer Night’s Dream

Posted on August 3, 2010August 3, 2010 By kal 3 Comments on Mid-Summer Night’s Dream
Edge Wizardry, Tarot

Last night I had a dream….In the dream someone was calling me. It was a gentle voice that seemed to come on the breeze, it whispered that “It was time” and I should come. I “floated” out of my bed and flew in the direction of the voice. I thought at first it was coming from Alderley Edge as that was the direction I was heading in but I passed over that and continued on.

As I continued this, rather slow for a dream, journey I realised that it was coming from the Oak tree by the side of Nine Stones Close stone circle. Just as I arrived at the circle I woke up. So now I am off (at 7a.m.) in the morning to see or hear what there is to experience there…

Tools of the trade

So I wrote the above section before I set off and I just returned now at 4pm. And I have to say, I am transformed.

Before I left I dowsed to see what tools would be required and the rods went mad, I needed to take…

  • Incense, Crystals, Tarot Cards

And two other things. I couldn’t think what so I asked the rods to show me and I diligently followed them out of the front door (what???) and right to my rose bush. Was I to take cuttings from it? No, Apparently I was to take some rose flowers from it. How many? Five.

The other thing that they led me to was hidden under a pile of junk (er home stuff) which I removed item by item checking each one and finally arrived at my singing bowl.

Wow! this seemed like it was going to be a fantastic ceremony!

I arrived at Nine Stones Close and the weather was gorgeous, the sun was out and the sky was “The Simpsons” blue. As I approached the Oak and the stones I felt a welcoming greeting from the Oak tree whose aura I had healed, wow was it only a year ago? Feels like a century ago!

Preparation

I asked the dowsing rods what preparation was needed and here is the results.

  • I would be sitting under the Oak tree’s eaves facing the stones.
  • Crystals ~ I used five crystals and placed them in a pentagram around me. Although I had a wide selection of them, it seems I was only going to be using Quartz today.
  • Incense ~ Again five sticks each next to the crystals. Funny thing was that as I dowsed to place these I was taken around all four stones before placing it right next to a crystal – How odd is that?

Knowth – Part 1: Rock Art and Energy Symbols
Ancient Sites, Dowsing

Friday 28th May 2010 – Knowth, Country Meath, Ireland. The series of large megalithic structures concentrated in the Boyne Valley was the target of our first full day in Ireland. We were stationed nearby at Duleek, so getting to the Newgrange complex was a breeze, and we were properly fuelled by a hearty breakfast including … Read More “Knowth – Part 1: Rock Art and Energy Symbols” »

La Tene: a visual manifestation of energy in art?

Posted on April 16, 2010September 9, 2026 By Gwas 3 Comments on La Tene: a visual manifestation of energy in art?
La Tene: a visual manifestation of energy in art?
Theory

I have had only a passing interest in the La Tene culture, having seen it mentioned infrequently in historical texts related to the druid culture and early Celtic tribes. However, when I did a Google Image search and found some pictures showing the shapes of the La Tene art I was also struck by the similarity. … Read More “La Tene: a visual manifestation of energy in art?” »
