Kent Dowsers Boxley Field Trip 21st March 2009

In a continuing series of field trips investigating the North Kent Ley, the Kent Dowsers organised a dowsing field trip to Boxley Church, north of Maidstone on Saturday 21st of March.  It was a beautiful sunny spring day and the Earth energies were very active.

There are nine sacred sites identified so far along this line with a number of others in very close proximity.   The line which is the 59th parallel on the UK Ordinance Survey maps lies on the 51⁰10′06″N parallel.  Located on the gentle southern slopes of the North Downs, Boxley Church, which is dedicated to St Mary and All Saints, is a lovely old building with sections dating back to Norman times.  Dowsing revealed that the original stone church was completed in 1150AD and prior to that was a wooden structure.  This date coincides well with the construction of the nearby Cistercian, Boxley Abbey which was founded in 1146 by William of Ipres.

As soon as we pulled out our dowsing rods in the processional pavement outside of the church gates they were profoundly drawn by a powerful Earth energy current travelling west-east.  We measured it to have a width of about five paces either side of the centre line or about 30 feet in width.   It travelled in a low amplitude sinusoidal wave through the middle of the church gate, down the walkway of the church and boldly through the dog-toothed Norman arch door into the Narthex.  It was an exhilarating experience, the current was very distinct, easy to follow and the Kent dowsers were free to roam through the beautiful church.  One had the distinct impression that the various versions of the church over the centuries were all build around the Earth energy lines passing through the land. Using a pendulum with the Mager Rosette revealed that the west-east energy line possessed green and purple colours and travelled towards the west.

The energy line travelled under the bell tower and through into the nave.  It travelled relentlessly up to the Chancel where it started to waver and change direction and circle around the Altar; the energy was forming a large spiral.   A check outside of the southern Transept of the church confirmed that a perpendicular, north-south Earth energy line was entering the church and intersecting the west-east line between the Altar and the Chancel.  The intersection was causing the powerful spiral to be formed.

Standing at the centre of the spiral evoked a peaceful and evocative feeling of well being and we could appreciate that this spot was well chosen for heightened spiritual experiences.  It was a joy to sense that the interior of the church was free of any negative or noxious energy and that the powerful spiral vortex of energy at the crossover point of the energy lines in front of the alter possessed a very positive quality.  Another interesting discovery was a well under the bell tower.

Back in the sunlight, dowsing the surrounding cemetery, we were astounded to discover that the potency of the energy spiral continued beyond the walls of the church surrounding the Altar.  It was easy to dowse the spiral several yards from the exterior walls.

After further measurements of the spiral vortex from the exterior of the church, it was concluded that it moved in an anticlockwise direction.  This also supported the feminine quality of the energy and the church being dedicated to St Mary. Interestingly though, some people also detected clockwise spirals within the church.   This perhaps indicates a balance in the vortex of the various levels of energy on this crossing point, contributing to the overall sense of harmony. The Mager Rosette showed that the energy within the spiral to have purple and white colours.

We detected some negative energy lines in the graveyard, travelling southwest - northeast, indicating certain levels geopathic stress.  This was evidenced by a large beech tree growing over the line by a stone wall which had rotted and appeared in poor health.  A neighbouring beech tree was in good health and had a long branch drawn down to the ground where it touched a blind spring of sweet water.  In addition we dowsed the age of the two mature yew trees at the western end of the church near the gate that were apparently 726 years old.

The east-west energy line came from the east up through the long cemetery following close to the footpath before entering the eastern end of the church behind the Altar.   The north-south Earth energy line descended from the wooded scarp on the North Downs, through the church between the Chancel and Alter and then continued south out of the Transept.

We followed the west-east energy line westwards along the middle processional pavement, across the road and then it invitingly entered the middle of the entrance door of the King’s Arms.  It led us right up to the bar where we were able to order refreshments and lunch.  A similar procession undoubtedly made numerous times by congregation and clergy alike over many centuries.

St Michael & St Mary Alignment

St Michael & St Mary Alignment

Map of St Michael & St Mary Alignment

If you are given a ruler and a map of the United Kingdom and asked to draw the longest line possible on it that only traverses land, you will end up with a line that stretches from the tip of Lands End in Cornwall to a place near the town of Hopton on the Norfolk coast.  Coincidentally this also happens to be the exact axis along which the May Day sun rises over Britain.  This line has some very intriguing properties and has profoundly influenced the lives of people living in the British Isles for many thousands of years.  The line is known as the St Michael and St Mary Alignments.  By drawing together legends, folklore, historical facts and science, a fascinating picture of the influence the St Michael and St Mary Alignment has on life may be found.

Legends & Folklore

The Angel Lucifer\'s fall from heaven

The loss of Angel Lucifer’s Third Eye during his fall from heaven

Legends and folklore often hold essential truths, and it is said that when the Angel Lucifer fell from heaven a great emerald dropped from his forehead. This signalled that humanity would increasingly suffer a loss of vision in the Third Eye, the Brow Chakra.

Lucifer’s Third Eye hit the earth causing a rip in the space-time continuum. It may be called a rip in the fabric that separates time and space or the third and forth dimensions if you will. Although the rip has healed over the millennia, minute amounts of energy, inconsistent with our present world, still leak from it.  One of the scars from the rip I referred to is the St Michael & St Mary Alignment and I will show how its existence has influenced history.  St Michael, often referred to as the saint of high places, exists in equilibrium with the St Mary Ley, which manifests water sites and holy wells throughout its journey across England.  In Chinese feng shui this formation is known as lung mei or dragon’s breath.

Lucifer’s Third Eye falling to the Earth is thought to mark the beginning of mankind’s enlightenment. The universal program of mankind is designed to live in dynamic equilibrium of opposing forces: chaos-order, good-evil, love-hate, war-peace.  Originally when there was only pure good, i.e. before Lucifer made his descent, the earth and mankind did not evolve.  Hence the expression: ‘Unless you have chaos inside you, you cannot give birth to a dancing star’.  Humans would never have been able to become freely creative, brave or loving if they had not been able to make mistakes, to see and believe things to be other than they are. The evil Lucifer gave man was a necessary part of his development. The apple Lucifer offered Eve was wisdom and the power of reflection.

Environmental Influences on the Cell and Geology

Geological survey maps have confirmed that many fault lines do run beneath the Michael & Mary Alignments and the traces of radiation emitted from them influences people’s minds.  Over the millennia people have associated the energy with mystical experiences. This explains the number of religious monuments along the alignments, dating back prior to the megalithic period.

The alignments are often referred to as manifestations of mystical snakes or dragons. The emission of the energy travels in a sinusoidal wave form and ancients who first detected it thought they were snakes or dragons. The two are intertwined, a little like the two serpents on the Caduceus, the insignia for the medical profession. St Mary is the earth or ground of the energy and the energy emitted from the high places of St Michael is grounded back to earth through underground streams and holy wells, flowing through the fault lines.

Long exposure to the energy emanating from the alignments has a physical effect on the body, especially during times of peak energy. Peak flows of energy occur at the summer and winter solstices as well as May Day on the St Michael and St Mary Alignments. These levels of energy become even more intense, during high sunspot activity coinciding with the solar cycles, as well as the alignments of the moon and inner planets.

By chance or design some people, due to their proximity to the alignments, are more influenced by its energies. Perhaps in the distant past this was planned for spiritual leaders, like druidic priests - key occurrences of their lives such as conception, birth and spiritual initiation occurred at strategic locations along the alignments, such as Avebury, during times of peak energy activity.  For them, their body’s cells are exposed to a maximum level of energy.  The very liquid crystal structure of billions of cells within their bodies resonates with the energy emanating from the fault lines.  The energy from the Earth rises up through the body along the spiralling Kundalini and influences the Chakra points. The most obvious change is the development of the pineal gland.  Spiritualists call this the development of their Brow Chakra or Third Eye. These people are often powerful clairvoyants.

Holy Wells.

Many underground streams of pure Earth water run deep beneath the surface along the fault lines.  At certain points these underground streams break through the top soil and have been turned into wells. Pure water molecules have an enormous capacity to hold and maintain geomagnetic energy in its unadulterated state.  These sources are known as holy wells, because the energy from the St Michael and St Mary Alignments, captured within the water molecules have healing properties.

History

The Celts used to celebrate the Beltane Fire festival along the St Michael and St Mary Alignment.  Since the dawn of the Megalithic era in Britain the St Michael and St Mary Alignment has seen the placement of numerous sacred stone sites such as Avebury, Glastonbury and Cheese Ring.  Subsequently Celtic Druids and early Christian geomancers built temples and churches near or on these sacred sites strategically aligned to the Earth energies and were dedicated to St Michael and St Mary or their equivalents prior to Christianity.   It was only after the arrival to the Paulian Roman Church that these churches and Christian holy sites, such as Glastonbury Abbey were destroyed or brought into disrepute.

Sacred Engineering

Adepts of the megalithic cultures dating back over 7,000 years clearly understood the nature, form and potential of Earth energies.   The ancients learnt to harness and manipulate this power, which included telluric currents, gravitational fields and electromagnetic radiation and used it for the benefit of the community.   They created centres of learning at places of extraordinary power such as Glastonbury, Newgrange and Carnac and were able to decipher the fundamental nature of the universe and the relationships between the mind, body and spirit. This was achieved through their understanding of the Earth as a sentient being, mankind’s relationship to Mother Nature and their astonishing knowledge of mathematics, engineering, astronomy and geodesy.
