Always lovely to read a bit more of the story that brought you to where you are now. Some of it is relatable, like that calling to be closer to nature, closer to the trees - the cold cold winter is unfortunately also relatable 🤣

Hey Luke.

Your post pulled up some memories for me and I truly thank you. It reminded me that there is magic and mystery in this world.

Glastonbury holds special memories for me.

I too knew it only as the place of the festival...my son went there every year.

In 2012, I had a powerful, spiritual awakening, which flipped how I saw the world.

Then in 2014 I was guided to go and plug an amethyst crystal into the Tor.

It was early days in my spiritual awakening and it felt a bit weird..also I was in financial crisis and could see no way of getting there. Then a £900 electricity rebate came so off me and my family went for a holiday.

As I surreptitiously plugged the crystal into the Tor, a butterfly shot from the ground and spun round me...the one witness..a little girl who danced with delight.

When I told others about my experience, many weren't surprised. One said.."you just gave acupunture to the Heart Chakra of planet earth".

The following year I was guided to go back again and perform a shamanic journey on the Tor.

Somehow, thirteen people from around the world gathered with me. We held an energy circle in the Chalice Well Gardens and the shamanic journey on the Tor, which had many in tears of release. In the journey, i saw the inside of the Tor...it was like a huge light filled web with a lighthouse at its centre.

Went back to the Chalice Well Gardens after. I wandered alone to the Chalice Well, a lady was there, givng fruit offerings. I sat quietly watching her. She looked up at me and said "You did a great thing today."

Since then, my partner and I have been drawn back and always experienced some form of mysticism, magic. Things appearing just as we asked for them.

Magical place.

Yes.. the 'how' of things manifesting is something I have learned to leave to The True Creator.

The place I live in now came to us in divine flow...we weren't even looking at the time and yet I now know it is my dream home...one I have dreamt about since a child.

Thanks again Luke...you gave me a timely reminder of how magical life can be when we allow it and follow flow.

🤍🤍🤍

Thank you so much for this thoughtful response. We lived at the bottom of the tor for a few months and nearly bought a house there, before deciding on the woods. It certainly is a magical place! one of a few where giving acupuncture to large hills with crystals is still socially acceptable 😅🤣😁

🤣🤣🤣 YES! Still had to pluck up a bit of courage to do it...and yet there was something very powerful in me, compelling me to do it

Things that seem weird, often bring about the magical stuff don't they🤍🤍🤍

Moving to an ancient forest in Glastonbury sounds enchanting! I love that you recognized you were already living in community with all the creatures who call the forest home. That’s beautiful. My husband and I share a similar vision of homesteading one day. We’re currently building out a van to live nomadically for a bit as we search for our future land. I’m imagining a meadow in the middle of a large forest with a creek nearby and space to garden and raise animals ✨❤️

That is amazing, where are you from? We started in a van - its the gateway to land :-)

We're currently located in Michigan, in the United States. Yes, hearing that you started in a van was inspiring. I'm excited about van life, for sure, but I'm honestly even more excited about finding land that we can deeply connect to.

It is the physical roots I think so many people are missing. It's hard to exploit land that you live on, and I think this is where much of the issues we face have come from. I remember hearing an indigenous elder saying, the reason we destroy eco-systems is because we are not living on them. It's hard to chop down a tree you have seen go from sapling to 50 year old. I hold a prayer for you to find the perfect land :-)
