I heard of this story a few years ago, when ‘druids’ placed quartz pillars on either side of a road in Austria to reduce accidents at a notorious black spot. Now it seems to have surfaced a bit more publicly if this story in the Metro is anything to go by (it also appeared in other papers). Needless to say, this is the sort of earth healing that many … Continue reading Druids use rock and magnets to stop road accidents

Your name Your email Subject Your message (optional) This form uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your data is processed. I spent a few hours this afternoon revisiting my Google Earth placemark of the Glasgow Network of Aligned Sites. When I originally started plotting Harry Bell’s sites I had a lot of difficulty due to the low resolution photo coverage in Google Earth at the time. This resulted in a degree of confusion, particularly in the Castlemilk and Carmunnock areas, where sites were misplaced and a couple of alignments omitted completely as I just couldn’t pin things down accurately … Continue reading The De’il’s Plantin – reloaded

Hamish Miller and the Lost Podcast

Your name Your email Subject Your message (optional) This form uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your data is processed. The passing of dowser Hamish Miller on Burn’s Night may have been unexpected to the rest of us, yet Hamish himself had been there before – three times to be exact – so at least he knew what to expect. One of my biggest regrets is that I didn’t manage to get a podcast interview from Hamish. We had spoken about the possibility a couple of times at BSD Conference and Hamish was very amenable to the idea, but … Continue reading Hamish Miller and the Lost Podcast

As I was putting the finishing touches to the file, I came across a press release about May Miles Thomas, an artist and film-maker who had received a Creative Scotland award to produce a project … Continue reading The De’il’s Plantin

I’m sitting in Luton airport where I have a few hours to kill before my flight back to Glasgow, following a very successful BSD Tutor Orientation weekend. Eleven potential tutors were present, including one chap who had come all the way from Kathmandu and had been waiting over two years to attend the course – such is the kudos that the BSD Training courses have these days. During a discussion around the topic of Universal dowsing truths vs. personal … Continue reading The spectrum of dowsing belief
