The Hedge Druid

After some preamble due to a mis-diagnosis of our O.S mapping we eventually found a stone circle called The Pipers Stones.

Quite auspiciously to our tired feet it was quite close to the main road. I was the first to arrive there and found a lovely stone just under a tree. The sun was shining and without pause I decided to lie on it and bask in the combined energies of the sun and tree. Almost as soon as I had closed my eyes I felt a “ugh” and looked around to see what had disturbed my senses.

It only took me a second to find a animal skull on a branch of the tree only a yard or two away from where I lay. I immediately got up and went to investigate. Rods in hand I determined that some kind of dark magic had been carried out at the place and had left its “stink” there. I dowsed for a “good” place for me to be and found that it was a stone that was diametrically opposite to the place where the skull was.

As Gwas approached the stone circle I drew his attention to the skull and he determined that he should do something about it. I left him to his task whilst I, again, attempted to bask in the sun.

Again it was mere moments after I had clambered up on the stone to rest when I “felt” a call of some kind. I jumped down and wandered back and forth for several moments trying to get a sense of the “call”. To no avail, so I decided to do some energetic exploration instead. Since I have been exploring the Genius Loci phenomena I hit upon asking some questions about that.

I asked whether the Genius Loci of this place (if there was one) had been summoned abroad as had Genius Loci’s from sites in the UK. It had and had returned in a similar fashion at roughly the same time. Wow I wasn’t expecting that answer. I lent against my power center and mused on this correlation when I felt a “tug” again and was drawn to do more dowsing to explore what was calling my attention.

After some moments of dowsing it just “popped” into my intuitive head…The Genius Loci was trapped. I queried the dowsing rods and the result was confirmed. Some time in the past the Genius Loci of this place had been trapped by person or persons unknown and they had left it in such a state. I wondered if I could do something about this. The answer was yes. So I set about exploring how I would do this. The answer was to gain energy from the sun and “give” it to the Genius Loci so that it could escape from its trap.

I dowsed to find an appropriate place to stand and it was right by where I had found the location of the Genius Loci earlier. I then set about visualising collecting the energy from the sun into my crown chakra, but I got a “sense” that this was not the appropriate way to do it and changed the process so that I was collecting energy into my aura and then passing it to where I imagined the Genius Loci to be.

After doing this for some moments I could “see” that the Genius Loci was trying to pull itself from the ground – the image I got  was that of a Phoenix however later reflection makes me think it was more dragon like than a phoenix. So this “dragon” was trying to pull itself loose of the ground using the energies that I was providing. However it wasn’t succeeding.

I decided to throw my personal energies into the struggle – but was immediately warned off by – hmm – my higher self? That this would result in injury. It was at this time that a fierce wind started to blow around and through the circle on what was otherwise a lovely warm day. I gathered in this winds energies too and supplied them to the Genius Loci (Dragon?) and it finally managed to break free.

Using dowsing I determined that it had flew around the back of me and out of a arcing energy “exit” that I had dowsed earlier.

Feeling pleased with my work I clambered back on top of my power center to re-energise. Again after a few moments a thought occurred to me. Had I done a good thing in helping the Dragon to escape? I jumped down for a third time to query the rods and found that the answer was yes. Phew!
