Unravelling The Past
The Magical Times|Issue 22

Over the past century human, have accomplished many things from the creation of auto-mobiles to moon landings - they have broken the bonds of gravity and redefined time and space. In my ‘spirit travels’ I too have defied the natural order, bypassing what is known as current time to go back to the past.

Unravelling The Past

With the assistance of and instructions from my guides I begin my ‘spirit travelling’ by grounding myself and entering into a profound meditation. I have learned how to travel to destinations all over the world and back through the ages. On many occasions I have found myself arriving at a sacred place during a time that is centuries before the one scientists have declared to be the beginning of the site. For example, when I ‘spirit travelled’ to Stonehenge I arrived at a time when the ground was bare and the megaliths were not yet in place. My guides explained what the site was used for and why it was built and by whom.

Stonehenge is not the only site I have ‘travelled’ to. In my new book, Spirit Traveller: Unlocking Ancient Mysteries and Secrets of Eight of the World’s Great Historic Sites (Findhorn Press), I write about my visits to seven other sites and share in depth what I learned about the history of the places and what I discovered about their beginnings and purpose.

We have accepted a version of history written by historians, archeollogists, scientists and theologians. The main documenters of our past came from the church and were monks, priests and holy men of all religious persuasions but who clearly held a viewpoint open to the bias of the churches and the belief systems of the ruling power as well as the interpretations and politics of the era. The historians of centuries ago recorded and reported on events and happenings that took place sometimes thousands of years before their own time. It’s clear that they too were influenced by the society in which they were writing. Their views and interpretations of ‘history’ are heavily slanted by the culture, values and time in which they worked.

The Magic Of The Crow

Crows, black shadows flying overhead, omens of death and war. Feeders of battlefields, their cries signal dark times ahead and warn of evil prophecies. Or do they? Even though the crow is often seen as a harbinger of dark tidings, there is much more to the mythology and folklore of this amazing, intelligent bird than black luck.
