ITINERARY

Our journey starts at Heathrow Airport in London. After an English welcome tea, we will drive to Silbury Hill, the belly of the Great Mother Goddess. Here we climb up to the sacred mount and perform our opening ritual, asking the Goddess for blessings and guidance for our journey. At Avebury, an ancient Initiation site and center of the crossings of solar and lunar ley-lines we will balance our masculine and feminine energies by connecting with the power held within these ancient stone circles. We will devote a full day exploring the mysterious crop circles forming in the area around Avebury, with an optional flight over these fascinating phenomena.

In Glastonbury, the magical Isle of Avalon, we will stay at the Chalice Well Sanctuary and open ourselves up to the Goddess energy with a pre-sunrise climb of the Tor, a huge labyrinth designed as a ritual pathway to ancient religious mysterious. At the Chalice Well, where it is said that Joseph of Arimathea buried the Grail Cup used by Jesus at the last supper, we will perform a healing rite of purification and look deeply into our own wells of wisdom. For the next few days we will explore England's Jerusalem, with its many sacred sites, including the great abbey where King Arthur is believed to be buried. At Stonehenge, our group will have permission to enter the inner circle after closing hours for private meditation and to receive transmission of the knowledge stored in this ancient initiatory temple. Due to the solar and lunar orientations of Stonehenge, we find here one of the oldest examples of a cosmic temple.

From Glastonbury, we will travel through scenic Somerset en route to Tintagel, where we will visit Merlin's Cave and open ourselves up to the wisdom of the Atlantean Magician. For four days we will stay in a small hotel/retreat center by the sea and overlooking St. Michael's Mount, an ancient pre-Christian Holy Center on the great Dragon ley-line stretching all the way from the Glastonbury Tor to Cornwall. Hamish Miller, author of the famous book: "The Sun and the Serpent", has invited our group to his home to share his wisdom and investigations into the Earth Energies of the British Isles. We will also have a chance to visit the Boscowen Un Stone circles, dance at the Merry Maidens and visit Land's End, believed to be land surface left from Atlantis. Hidden in the natural seclusion of the Cornish landscape exists an array of old nature temples, which were used by the ancient people as Gateways to the Otherworld. These are the springs and Holy Wells where the life-force flows from the unseen realms. We will visit such potent subterranean shrines as the Sancreed Holy Well and commune with the Old Gods.

From the wild landscape of Cornwall we will drive back to London, from where you can return back home or continue your magical journey or your own.
