Prehistoric Calendar Revealed at Stonehenge

Summer solstice is fast approaching, and on the 20th June over 20,000 people are expected to gather at the world-famous Stonehenge to celebrate and watch the sun rise above the Heel Stone and shine on the central altar. For those of us in the northern hemisphere, this is a time when the sun’s path stops moving northward in the sky, the days stop growing longer and will soon begin to shorten again.

Over 5000 years old, Stonehenge was built in three phases between 3,000 B.C. and 1,600 B.C. Its full purpose remains unknown yet the mystery that surrounds Stonehenge is so enduring and popular that last year over 1.3 million visitors flocked to this ancient monument. There are even several man-made copies of the world-famous heritage site have been built around the world, including an impressive full-scale replica at the Maryhill Museum in Washington, USA.

Stonehenge famously aligns to the solstices, but for the rest of the year it seems strange that these ancient builders would not be aware of the current day, or for that matter how many days remained to the next solstice event. However, a new theory has been presented that suggests Stonehenge was used for more than just marking the winter and summer solstices, or as a sacred burial site.

Recently, Lloyd Matthews (scale modelling expert based in the UK) and Joan Rankin (a retired historian living in Canada), have made an ambitious attempt to rethink the purpose of Stonehenge. Their conclusion, after three years of extensive and laborious research, is that the entire structure was, in fact, a complex and significant prehistoric calendar that could actually count the individual days in a year. Not only did Stonehenge act as a solar calendar, similar to the western calendar used today, but it also acted as a lunar calendar and was important for a developing agricultural society to successfully plan for the seasons.

Lloyd Matthews spent 6 years meticulously researching and constructing two scale models of Stonehenge for display at The Maryhill Museum of Art. The models show Stonehenge as it stands today and as it would have originally looked when built.

During its construction, Mr Matthews identified three distinct carvings on three of the large stones known as Trilithons. Curiosity piqued, Mr Matthews approached several experts at the time who were unable to provide an explanation as to what these symbols meant. Dissatisfied with the responses, Mr Matthews decided to continue his research into this ancient puzzle with the help of Joan Rankin, an authority in prehistory.

Together, they may have not only successfully cracked the mystery of these three symbols but also discovered the original purpose of 56 unusual holes that were dug around Stonehenge during the very first phase of its construction, famously known as the Aubrey Holes. It appears that these holes could likely have been used as a calendar counting system used to keep track of each passing day, with six and a half revolutions around Stonehenge marking a full year, and using the rising of the Summer Solstice sun as a way of astronomically marking the starting point of each new year.

As for the mysterious shapes carved into the Trilithons, they have shown how these symbols may have been deliberately positioned to allow the ancient astronomers at Stonehenge keep track of other significant astronomical cycles, including its use not only as a solar calendar but also as a lunar calendar.

Dr Derek Cunningham, an established archaeological expert has even embraced this new theory himself, saying that “the idea is based on some solid observations. Not only can Lloyd now explain his three shapes, Joan’s ideas help explain the layout and also the number of Aubrey Holes seen at the site. Neither had been satisfactorily explained before.”

Dr Cunningham goes on to say, “Further work is expected, but it now appears that Stonehenge may finally be giving up some of its secrets.”

Shadow Work Healing

All of us carry shadows inside. When the human Shadow is shunned, it tends to undermine and sabotage our lives, contributing to ddictions, low self-esteem, mental illness, chronic illnesses, and various neuroses.

Before we start our session, I will shamanic journey into the Otherworld and connect with your energies, ancestors, spirit guides, or any other beings that are trying to come through the veils to communicate. I will receive visions, sometimes in the form of past lives, soul loss, karmic cycles, and also archetypes that are coming through of the role(s) you may have taken on in this lifetime (or past lifetimes) which have contributed to the experience of trauma, abuse, addictions, victimization and feelings of disempowerment.

During our session, I will let you know what I saw during my journey and we will discuss what parts are available for healing in the form of habits, false belief structures, and archetypes being brought to the surface. With your permission, I will perform a shamanic healing ritual afterwards for your healing in those aspects.

This is not a one stop fix, but a journey into your own unique story. If you would like follow up sessions, I recommend giving yourself at least 2 weeks or longer to integrate what you have learned and the feelings that might come up. This is meant to be a step in helping you find your lost pieces and may come out as many different ways; from finding a renewed passion for life, finding the strength to let go of co dependant relationships, finally move on and away from toxic people in your life, learning how to implement proper boundaries, kindling a creative urge to express yourself in a new way, a new outlook on life and finding purpose again, finding value in yourself and attracting abundance into your life, and many other ways it may uniquely manifest for you and your special journey in life.

Whichever way it shows up, may you be blessed in all ways to find your true self and heal, living authentically and loving yourself; living with peace, joy and love.

Home Space Clearing

I look into the energy of your home space and perform clearing of energy, entities, leftover emotional memory and residue that does not belong there.

The benefits of such a clearing are the following:

  • Feeling more fresh and free in your home space
  • Not being pulled down by the emotions someone else had previously felt there, even if that was you
  • Allows you to occupy your own space energetically
  • Being free of any spirits or entities that do not belong in your space
  • Your plants and pets will thank you fot it :)

During the session, I will let you know what I found in your home space and I will be doing the clearing energy work as well. This may require you to become aware of and let go of the relevant issues as well.

You do not need to prepare in any way. You will not need to do anything during the session either. The only things required of you is your desire for a clean home space and willingness to let go of past strugles and issues.

GEOPATHIC STRESS

Geopathic Stress
Geopathic stress is the distortion of Geo-electromagnetic energies in the earth’s field of underground water courses, mineral deposits; faults and underground cavities. These distorted or negative energies may radiate through your house or work place, affecting the health of the occupants in different ways. The problem arises when people spend long periods of time working or sleeping in these lines or zones of ‘Geopathic stress’ (GS). The healing of land and houses is essential for good health and wellbeing

Symptoms of Geopathic stress

While Geopathic stress does not cause illnesses directly, it may weaken the immune system which in turn weakens the body, making it slower to heal and more susceptible to illnesses such as cancer.

Sleeping in a Geopathic zone is particularly stressful. If you sleep on a spiral, where two Leylines of the negative energy cross, for example, two underground rivers, not alone may it affect your sleep patterns by causing broken or restless sleep or nightmares, you may wake up in the morning feeling more tired than when you went to bed. This is because the adrenal gland works overtime to compensate for the distorted earth radiation. The brain also cannot relax into a deep sleep to repair and regenerate the body due to the high content of adrenaline in the blood. Over time, the fact that you sleep in this energy overnight, may lead to energy imbalance or long term illness.

Any of the following are believed to result from exposure to Geopathic stress:

Behavioral problems, e.g. Aggression, hyperactivity
Emotional instability
Sleeping disorders and restlessness
Cancer, M.E. And M.S.
Aches and pains, e.g. Headaches
Back problems
Infertility and cot deaths
Asthma and allergies
Depression
Stress and nervousness
Lack of concentration or memory loss
Nausea
Disorientation
Exhaustion, fatigue or loss of strength
Absenteeism at work due to sickness
Not responding to medical treatment

Physical indicators of Geopathic stress

Animals that gravitate to lines or zones of GS include: cats, owls, slugs, snails, insects such as ants, bacteria, viruses, wasps and bees. Most mammals avoid areas of Geopathic stress. Horses and cows stabled over GS may become sick or prone to injuries. In Ireland in the days of old, people used to put cattle into the fields to see where they would sleep knowing that they would not sleep in areas of negative energy. This is then where the buildings were placed, in the good old days before planning permission!

Areas of non-productive fruit trees, gaps in hedges, twisted growth, patches in lawns and trees where lightening has struck can indicate areas of GS.

Animals and very young children can feel instinctively if a place is healthy or not i.e. If there are lines or zones of Geopathic stress within it. If children are oriented differently from when they were tucked in, or don’t want to sleep in their beds it is wise to check for lines of the GS.

Can the level of Geopathic stress be measured?

Through the art of dowsing, Dr. Gustav Freiherr von Pohl, the ‘Grand Old Man’ of GS, developed a scale to analyze the strengths and effects of the contaminated leylines

The scale runs from 1 to 16 with the following effects:

Up to 4: No effect.
5 – 6: Obesity, swelling of joints, headaches, sleeping problems, anxiety.
7 – 8: Mental disorders, addictions, suicides, depression.
9 plus: Cancer, leukemia, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s and many other disorders.
In both Germany and Austria it is the law to have your house checked for Geopathic stress before you move in.

Love and Light
