Earth's Ley lines were called 'Dragon Lines' by the Chinese centuries ago. When several 'Dragon Lines' cross each other at a given point (node), their power creates a massive vortex of energy. When ley lines are loved and honored in a conscious way, not only does the Earth's sacred balance come further into harmony, but also the pilgrims working the ley lines become more balanced as well. The sacred traveler is healed as well as the Earth's life-giving grid. It is a powerful symbiotic relationship between the Earth and humankind. On this pilgrimage, we will work with many such ley lines and nodes.

The main center or crossing point of dozens of major ley lines is in Glastonbury, England. Glastonbury represents the HEART CHAKRA but also the THIRD EYE. An overwhelming amount of ley lines converge in Glastonbury, and you can feel it. Thus we can see (third eye chakra) from our heart (heart chakra) on this major ley line grid. In Glastonbury, the Michael and Mary lines pass through Glastonbury Abbey, Chalice Well, the Tor, St. John's the Baptist Church, etc . . . before moving on to the Avebury Stone Circle Complex, and further over the English landscape. Earth's energy system is remarkably similar to our own human form. Our connection to the Earth is far more powerful than we realize, especially when our heartbeat and third eye is not only held in the landscape but in our consciousness as a spiritual pilgrim.

The enduring myth of Dinas Emrys and a dragon's tale, and why the dragon still flutters on the Welsh flag.

According to legend . . . King Vortigern wished to build a castle on top of a rocky wooded hill (now named Dinas Emrys), but every night his castle walls would fall down. Frustrated he consulted sorcerers and magicians. They advised that the ground should be sprinkled with the blood of a child born to a human mother and a father that was 'other worldly'. A search was launched, and eventually a child was found in Caer Myrddin (Carmarthen), and preparations for the sacrifice were made. But the child, Myrddin Emrys, was no ordinary child. In fact, he was Merlin, the wizard. Merlin saw that there were two dragons fighting beneath the hill that caused the castle walls to fall. Therefore, King Vortigern commanded his laborers to dig deep into the mountain. They did as they were told, and they discovered an underground lake, just as Merlin had predicted. Once drained, the red and white dragons that lay sleeping there awoke and began to fight. The red and white dragon fought, and eventually the white dragon fled, and the red dragon returned to his lair. King Vortigern's castle was then built the hill was named Dinas Emrys, in honor of Myrddin (Merlin) Emrys (Emrys was Merlin's birth name). The powerful red dragon has been celebrated ever since. Not convinced? In 1945, the site was excavated by archaeologists who discovered a lake and the ruins of a fortress dating to Vortigern's time. The walls all showed signs of having been rebuilt several times. Tread carefully if you explore this hill. A dragon sleeps beneath it.





ALUNA JOY was born awake and in the company of her guides, the Star Elders "The Buddies". Today, she is an internationally known messenger/author/speaker/, spiritual life coach, sacred site guide, alternative historian and modern mystic. In the Inca world, Aluna is considered a Qawaq (cow-wak), a clairvoyant or seer of present living energy. Aluna acts as a spiritual archaeologist using her clairvoyant/clairsentient gifts to excavate messages from ancient worlds and the enlightened guardians of these sites. She uncovers pertinent and timely wisdom and alchemy that has relevance to the current moment and for our future.

Aluna coined the term "sacred site junkie" because she is one herself. After her first trip to Tulum, Mexico in 1986, her life changed dramatically, and she was sent on an entirely different path in her life. Since this time, her work has been influenced by uncountable shamanic experiences in sacred sites of Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, Peru, Bolivia, Egypt, Jordan, Greece, England, Scotland, Australia and New Zealand.

Aluna has been leading groups in the Maya world since 1995, the Inca world since 1996, the Egyptian world since 2008, and the Celtic worlds since 2007. She is well known for her down to earth, accepting attitude that makes everyone feel like they have come home. She inspires and encourages others to recognize and accept their own authentic divinity and connection to the Creator. "Our groups are family, and each one is a teacher and also a student. We work together as a team to unravel the sacred mysteries of life."


MARCUS MASON, our local guide, has practiced and taught Soul-Centered Astrology for more than 30 years in the UK and in Ireland, Europe and the USA. He has also practiced Traditional Acupuncture for 30 years and is a Member of the British Acupuncture Council (MBAcC).

For the last 15 years, with his partner Sue Weaver, a crystal and shamanic healer and teacher, he has been researching the relationships and energetic effects of the planetary movements upon the body's energy systems and Chakras. What has emerged is a profound and elegant system of meditation, informed by more than 30 years of working with Astrology, Acupuncture and Earth Energies.

Marcus has been fascinated by Earth Energies and the purpose of Britain's ancient Sacred Sites since his early twenties. As his understanding grew, he came to see how the sacred places of Mother Earth are like the acupuncture points on the human body, and that many sacred sites are linked in similar ways to the points on the body's acupuncture meridians. On the Earth, these are the Ley Lines and the great planetary Dragon Lines, which encircle the planet.

In the 1990s, he co-founded a group which worked with planetary healing meditations inside Stonehenge, at every Full Moon for 4 years from 1994 - 1998. Since then, he has worked with many groups on journeys for personal and planetary healing in England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, France, Belgium, Denmark, the Canaries, South Africa, Alaska and Hawaii.

Marcus combines his understanding of Acupuncture, Astrology, Earth Energies and the human Chakra system, working with people at sacred sites to enable personal and planetary healing. When we work together in this way at a sacred site, it is inevitable that the healing energies of the place will have an effect at a personal level and that the energies of the sacred site will also magnify our healing intention and enable healing for the greater whole of humanity and Mother Earth.

Marcus lives in Cornwall, is one quarter Cornish and regards Cornwall as his spiritual home. He is a father to one son, and is grandfather to two grandsons.

ABOUT THE MIDDLEWICK HOLIDAY COTTAGES IN GLASTONBURY, ENGLAND:

We think, sometimes, there's not a dragon left.
Not one brave knight,
not a single princess gliding through secret forests ...
What a pleasure to be wrong.
Princesses, Knights, Enchantments and
Dragons, Mystery and Adventure ...
not only are they here-and-now,
they're all that ever lived on earth!
Masters of reality still meet us in dreams to tell us that
we've never lost the shield we need against dragons,
that blue-fire voltage arcs through us now
to change our world as we wish.
Intuition whispers true:
We're not dust, we're magic!"
- Richard Bach

ST. WINEFRIDE'S HOLY WELL. Accounts vary in detail about the story of St. Winefride but the main features of the legend are as follows. . . Winefride (Gwenfrewi) was the daughter of a local prince named Tewyth and his wife Gwenlo. Her uncle was St. Beuno. One day, around the year 630, Caradoc, a chieftain from Hawarden attempted to seduce Winefride. She ran from him towards the church which had been built by her uncle. Caradoc pursued her and cut off her head. In the place where her head fell, a spring of water came up. St. Beuno came out from the church, took up her head and placed it back on her body. He then prayed and raised her to life. A white scar encircled her neck, witness to her martyrdom. Caradoc sank to the ground and was never seen again. Pilgrimage to St Winefride's Well has taken place throughout the 1,300 years since St Winefride was restored to life. Pilgrims have come to St. Winefride's Well throughout its history, to seek healing. Records dating back hundreds of years are testimony to the many cures from sickness and infirmity received through the intercession of St Winefride. There are many stories of those who have come in thanksgiving for healing for themselves or others.
