It's my last night in Glastonbury. Tomorrow I leave for Devon, Cornwall and new adventures following the Michael & Mary earth energy lines. I've been here just under 2 weeks and in that time I've discovered just how sensitive I am to the unseen. How my body acts like a giant dowsing rod. How I feel energies, see behind the veil and hear messages meant just for my ears. It's a big thing to say this, to admit publicly that I sense, I feel, I see, I hear things beyond the five senses we get told about at school. But bollocks to that ;-) I was never taught wonderment. Or tuning in. Or noticing. I was enslaved to a system and force fed limiting beliefs. Today I'm open, I see, I feel, hear. And today I saw a dragon, maybe you do too. Doesn't matter anyway... I'm laughing in wonderment of an afternoon spent playing in nature ✨✨✨ #inpraiseofnature #naturelove #glastonbury

Day 8 : Solstice Reflections...

Pre dawn, summer solstice, Stonehenge. In this magical moment the crowd hushed. The sky erupted in corals, pinks, oranges, yellows, even purples. For this was the time before the sun was due to herald the start of this new day, the longest day of the year, a day of celebration for people and cultures the world over. 

So why the fuss? What's so special? Why do English Heritage allow people on the stones to see this spectacle? 

The answer lies in the both the Sun itself and the design of Stonehenge. 

For as my photo from yesterday shows, the sun literally rises between the stones. Stones that have been placed in alignment with the sun's seasonal movements and the directional line of both the summer and winter solstice (aka longest and shortest days). 

So why celebrate the sun? And this the longest day? 

If you strip back all the artifice of our modern world and pause to reflect upon the majesty, miracle, awe and wonder that is life ..... without our Sun, we have no heat, no light, no food, no us! 

The sun is synonymous with life giving properties, and the longest day a time where we are eating the fruits of the land in a bumper harvest! 

In England that looks like long school holidays, strawberries and cream, the trees being thick with leaves, long light nights and lush green growth everywhere! 

What's not to love?!!!! That is praising nature indeed!

The countdown has begun. 

In less than a week I'll be flying to the UK and trading sunrise in Manly for the ancient landscape of Cornwall. Swapping pies for pasties and laid back Aussie charm for English wit. 

 It will feel good to train my lens on something new, explore my Celtic past, feel it's wild pulse beneath my feet. Time to get focused.
