Glastonbury, ley lines and truth

Glastonbury, ley lines and truth

How do you know something you hear or read about is the truth?

Truth for one person can be the opposite for another.

We each one of us live in our own alternate realities.

The mind, intellect what ever you want to call it cannot find the truth, for most of us it is much too vast to comprehend. You can only encompass it with your heart. You feel it.

I have never met a shaman that has impressed me. Most are good people and they may have skills but they lack any real wisdom. They are just seekers on the path like all of us. The same applies to the majority of New Age gurus.

New Agers in particular can be extremely gullible people. They tend to believe more or less anything if it it presented coherently. Take Glastonbury for example - just the word gives it authenticity, Avalon and all that guff. Most of it is just make believe, wishful thinking, absolute rubbish.... that doesn't mean there is nobody there with the truth or that it isn't an important place. Just not most of the hype which is just that. The same applies to Sedona or any other of the so called 'special places'. Discerning the truth is often hard.

As a hippy I was drawn to the rumours like everyone else and first went to Glastonbury in 1970. It was still a sleepy little market town. The hippies that had settled there were interested in all sorts of things. They researched stuff and regurgitated stuff. Some of it was authentic and Divinely inspired but most of it was just imagined, badly put together and just stuff.

They made a living from it and no one should begrudge them that. It was a place of it's time. Finding yourSelf in amongst all the crystal shops and healing centres can be difficult. The town has changed and grown but is still an interesting place to visit. There are energies there if you are perceptive. The Tor itself is actually a pyramid. It has a guardian so you won't get in unless you are invited which is rare.

At first I was just as impressed as everyone else and fell for all the hype, that was until I came across the real deal. I am not better or wiser than anyone else but once you have connected, anything that is not becomes rather obvious. I have visited Glastonbury many times but it's not one of my favourite places. It's too much in the head for me, my heart seeks other energies.

In the nineties I spent about eight years mapping global energy lines and consulted all the available information, books, maps that other people had drawn that kind of thing. I had my own sources which is all I used to plot my lines but I wanted to at least look at everyone else's researches to help get a better picture.

At that time there was a map of all the lines of energy running into and around Glastonbury. It's still sold and circulating today. It is often cited on websites and by authors.

It looked interesting and I called the author to find out how he made his map.

The first thing he said was 'Ah well actually I don't do that any more.' He sounded a bit defensive.

'Fine,' I said and told him why I was calling. I asked him how he had made the map, was he a dowser?

'No.'

Did he use intuition or had he researched.'

'No I just sort of looked and could see them.'

“Are you clairvoyant?'

'No, no, I mean I just stood there on the land and could see from this place straight to there, it was obvious really.'

'Has your map been checked by anyone else?'

'Eh, not that I know of.'

We talked for a while but it was clear to both of us that there was no real foundation to what he had drawn. He was rather anxious to get rid of me and my very awkward questions. I could tell he was a good person and genuine but I was rather disappointed and felt let down.

I have interacted with other authors and spoke with them about their methods and what they achieved. Some were better than others. The best by far was the dowser Hamish Miller who was a remarkable man. He was a blacksmith, totally honest and as authentic as you can get but not particularly well educated. He was just a wonderfully talented and very inspired bloke. When I spoke with him he told me he was more comfortable with a 5lb hammer than a pen. He wasn't a writer but he had been working with someone who was. They had since fallen out which is why I had not been able to contact him through his publisher.

The writer in question is his exact opposite of Hamish. He is well educated and extremely eloquent and makes his living from his discourses and his writing. I won't say any too much other than I have come across other people who worked with him and had a falling out. One was a close friend who I have known for many years. He is about as honest as you can get. Personal integrity for him is everything. He had a falling out and took this man and his publisher to court and won.

When I discovered some inconsistency in the ley-line story and I wrote to the publisher about them. Everyone knows that ley-lines are straight. It is what I thought defined them. I discovered that actually not only is this not true but that the lines Hamish had dowsed were not straight either.

The publisher turned out to be this author and he lived very close to me, only a few miles away. Great we could meet quite easily but he never replied to me and after several other failed attempts to contact him I wrote an article about my findings. Hamish eventually heard about it through the dowsing community who had publish my article and he called to discuss it with me. He was a bit defensive at first but after a while he warmed to me and we had a long conversation.

Below is the map of the long line Hamish found and explored in the book The Dance of the Dragon.

The curved line that looks straight

They have called this line an axis which is a straight line or vector and it does look like it is a straight line on their map. But that is simply because of the projection they have used. A projection is a flat representation of the curved surface of the Earth. By its very nature a projection distorts and can be quite deceptive. In this case the line looks straight but actually curves in the middle by almost two hundred miles.

On the image below which is a snapshot taken of Google Earth I have plotted the two end points and then connected them with a straight line. You can see that in the middle of the line it doesn't actually go anywhere near Italy as shown on the map above. My end points are plotted accurately but you can shift them about a very long way before it will make any difference.

Straight line plotted on  Google Earth

I am a qualified cartographer and understand maps but you can check my findings by plotting the line on Google Earth yourself. Google Earth is not completely accurate but it is certainly accurate enough for this exercise. The huge anomaly is very apparent even if you only plot the end points very roughly.  You can plot all the points along the dowsed line, as I did when I was first investigating and you will see that they generate a fairly smooth arc.

I first discovered this anomoly when I plotted this line on a 3D model of the Earth that I had built for my own mapping project. My globe is software based and it took me about six months to create. I built it when the internet was in its infancy and way before Google Earth. My globe is accurate to a few second of arc but I prefer to show this anomaly on Google Earth. It is independent and gives my findings more credibility.

I was never trying to disprove anything. I was just pointing out something that did not appear to fit in the story that we were being given. People have believed it because of the way it was presented. It looked very professional. It is now part of the established truth, that is until I came along. My observations are uncomfortable for a lot of people and they reject them in favour of what they know.

When I spoke to him Hamish told me that he had never said that ley-lines run in straight lines. In fact a lot of them are curved or spiral. He had followed the Michael and Mary line right across Europe and up into Russia. He told me he couldn't go any further because the line curved away from the ground and up into space. The British part of the line is relatively short and is more or less straight. I plotted the new points he told me about which extended his line quite a long way. Low and behold it curves.

What I have discovered since then is that yes some lines do run fairly straight, the higher the frequency the less they bend. Much like light really. Red energy lines bend the most.

An experienced dowser who I came across through a contact I met in Sedona checked my own work for me and was able to confirm it. He could quite easily pick up the edges of these lines which are huge and circle the globe. They are 60 plus miles wide but he said he could trace the edge of them quite easily and found them exactly where I had indicted. He was living in North America at the time but has since returned to Europe and got the same results there.

He spoke about many different types of energy lines which he classifies by colours. Each has its own qualities and most bend. He has discovered some very interesting things about the lines in Europe. Amongst other things he discovered that the Nazis had knowledge of energy lines and used this information when they sited their death camps and initiation chambers. They were all on red energy lines. This is not palatable information but might explain some of what they were trying to achieve. Hopefully he will be writing a book about it but it but it is not a pleasant subject and I doubt that it will be well recieved.

This brings me back to my original topic. Truth. It is not that the people involved in a any particular story are wrong. It is more that they don't have the whole picture and that some people make a living from it. They have a vested interest in a small part of the truth but not all of it. It creates a fear, a fear of change. They simply don't want to change their story.

If you challenge someones truth don't expect to win any friends, I certainly haven't. I have unintentionally antagonised quite a lot of people in my search for truth.

Question everything, especially me and find your own reality.

It is up to each one of us to discover our own Truth and to welcome in any changes that it brings. We are all about to be given a great many new insights which may well rip apart all the things we thought we knew. We have been living with dogma and half truths for a very long time. Most of what we consider sacrosanct is actually just programing. It is almost time to let all of that go.

Let your feelings guide you. If you are reading something on the internet and find you don't really want to read it or have lost what the article was saying then stop. You mind switches off for a reason. You may also get an instant reaction - this is not truth. Learn to listen to your Self.

Spiritual people especially can find it very difficult letting go of something they have believed in for a long time. All I would say is be open to anything and keep in mind that if you let go willingly you may find the transition much more comfortable.
