“The true mathematical science is that which measureth the invisible lines and immortal beams which can pass through clod and turf, hill and dale. It was for this reason, it was accounted by all ancient priests the chiefest science; for it gave them power both in their words and works.”
John Dee ~ (English mathematician, court astronomer for Elizabeth I, teacher, Astrologer and alchemist)
Over the last 18 months I’ve felt drawn to ancient megalithic sites and civilisations. As part of my research for a trilogy of psychological/esoteric/metaphysical thrillers I’ve gone down some very deep and convoluted rabbit holes!
Having not long devoured Freddy Silva’s amazing book: The Divine Blueprint (Temples, power Places and the Global Plan to Shape the Human Soul), I decided I would visit the sacred site of Avebury in Wiltshire.
I was already in awe of ancient temples across the world (many of which are on my bucket list), but it has given me a newfound respect for the wisdom and knowledge of our ancient ancestors; how they incorporated cosmic alignments, mathematics and sacred geometry into stone circles, avenues and temples of stone.
Far from being inferior to ‘modern’ humans, Megalithic and ancient civilisations translated the mechanics of the cosmos into their constructions.
William Stukeley’s sketch of the Cove facing from the opposite direction to my photograph above. The barn is no longer there…
Freddy Silva expertly elucidates on what he believes are the seven principles which are shared by the vast majority of the sacred sites across the globe; a blend of forces of nature which have been engineered to bring people into intimate contact with the unseen worlds, where the sacred is distinguished from the profane on these hallowed grounds.
The seven principles of sacred space: water, electromagnetics, sacred measure, stone, sacred geometry, orientation and the human key. The book goes into much more detail.
I wholeheartedly recommend reading The Divine Blueprint, it’s absolutely mind-blowing in its revelations and information – all written in the author’s knowledgeable and friendly voice.
A fascinating text written on the walls of the temple of Edfu in Egypt states: ‘we’ll keep building temples until humans recognise the temple within themselves.’
I wanted to interact with the landscape temple complex of Avebury and experience for myself what Freddy Silva maintains is the ultimate purpose of any temple, or as he sometimes refers to as ‘mansions of the gods’: to interact with the consciousness of the individual, a correspondence between the land, temple and its influence on a population, on the elevation of the human spirit born of direct experience.
Through this subtle communication between the earth, temple and human beings, a gradual reinvigoration can occur of a lost link between the material and the spiritual, heightening our responsibility to the environment and bringing us more into sync with natural forces. The energies imparted can empower visitors, and the results and experiences one can have correspond to the level of intent and commitment they bring into the premises.
I definitely felt this during my trip to Avebury…
“Temples are repositories of power, designed by master craftsmen possessed of great spirituality and humility. And just as they are capable of altering the individual, so the electromagnetic individual can disrupt the temple, and creation myths and traditions warn of the dangers inherent in this two-way force.”
Freddy Silva (The Divine Blueprint)
I recall it was early September, and I travelled with my son. It was certainly a memorable day. We were fortunate it was the last glorious day of summer!
One of the largest stones we encountered. Will is 6ft 2in, so you can gauge the height.
Avebury doesn’t get as much exposure as its nearby relative, the bigger, bolder and more famous Stonehenge; but it’s a part of the combined UNESCO World Heritage Site and can still claim the title of the largest megalithic stone circle in the world.
Wiltshire is a somewhat mythical and mystical county, with its hundreds of mounds, giant’s graves, long barrows, dolmens, stone circles and conical mounds, which have for the most part miraculously survived the religious and cultural upheavals of the centuries – not to mention the more recent phenomena of crop circles (a whole other blog post for sure!).
The main concentration of the ancient phenomena is around Avebury and its surrounding temples and mounds, covering an area of roughly sixty square miles, forming one of the most respected and ritualised landscape temples ever known.
Another fascinating fact is that Avebury’s navel location lies on a latitude of 4/7 of the distance from the equator to the North Pole, with Delphi at 3/7 and Karnak at 2/7. The ‘navel’ is where the original giant menhir once stood, marking the global geodetic significance of Avebury. A connection with Egypt cannot be ignored.
“All the stones of our whole Temple were called Ambres, even by our Phoenician founders, but this (the centre stone) particularly. The Egyptians by that name still called theirs obelisks.”
William Stukeley (antiquarian, physician and Anglican clergyman)
A freemason of his day, antiquarian and physician William Stukeley spent many years on-site at Avebury in the 1720’s, making drawings and documenting the terrible desecration and destruction he witnessed up to 1743, when farmers Griffin and Green removed the stones of The Sanctuary. There were two processional stone avenues that connected to Avebury Henge, covering a distance of three miles, each consisting of some 200 stones, of which sadly, only 32 remain.
The much depleted West Kennet stone avenue that William Stukeley documented. This was a sacred pathway to enter the site.
The Egyptian Connection
It’s hard to ignore the linguistic, astronomical alignment and temple building principles between ancient Egypt and Celtic Britain.
“Studies into the mathematical and linguistic origins of ancient British temples suggest a heavy Egyptian presence. The Celtic version of the obelisk is the menhir (upright stone), which represents the omphalos, the temple in its simplest form. Some of the largest examples weigh 400 tons, yet their simplicity makes them no less powerful than their appearance might give.
“In the northern Celtic lands their local names reveal Egyptian roots: they were called amberics, and one Cornish monolith was known as men amber (‘stone obelisk’ or ‘stone of the sun’). The connection appears at Stonehenge, whose approach is now the town of Amesbury: ames meaning ‘a place of the sun’ and bury ‘an enclosure’; its earlier name ambres-bury derives from the Egyptian amber or obelisk. Thus, the site of Stonehenge was known as an ‘enclosure of obelisks, a temple of the sun”.
“The Egyptian Karnak and its French namesake Carnac come from Karn Ac, ‘a seat or enclosure of great fire or light’. From this is derived carn and cairn in the Celtic language, the generic names for an earthen or stone enclosure, and Cernunnos, the horned fertility god of nature otherwise known as Pan. Such associations not only suggest a common Egyptian heredity, but also connect the sites with light, wisdom and fecundity.”
Freddy Silva (The Divine Blueprint)
Clava Cairns near Inverness and Culloden Moor, taken in January 2023 during a visit to my son. It was a welcome day away from the hospital. We were the first to visit the site after a heavy snowfall the night before. The snow seemed to coat the land in silence. It was so peaceful. The guide explained that when the site was originally built there were no trees, it was just open fields. The trees were planted by a the local land owner between 1870-71. It is believed that this is the stone circle that gave Diana Gabaldon inspiration for the standing stones featured in Outlander.
Silbury Hill
Before visiting Avebury we decided to stop a mile or so up the road to take a peek at the mysterious landscape mound of Silbury Hill. Silbury is the largest prehistoric manmade mound in Europe, named after the Phoenician sil meaning ‘light’. It’s now fenced off so people are discouraged from climbing it.
Freddy Silva gives some background to how Silbury Hill came about:
“Legend states that around 2650 BC local shamans received information from a group of spirit beings named Watchers, who instructed them to erect a six-stepped conical mound as an insurance policy for future times, when humanity would lose its connection to the divine. As word spread of the sacred construction project to be undertaken, merchants of Light came from all over Europe and as far as Phoenicia to take part in the building of this temple. Traditional historians scoffed at this idea until a shaft of dug to the center of the mound revealed a multitude of soils brought in from as far away as the Middle East, and established the date of construction at c.2600 BC.
“Exactly at the same time in Egypt, the temple seers at Saqqara were guided to build a six-stepped pyramid by a group of creator gods named Shining Ones, the equivalent to the Watchers, and the pyramid was subsequently erected by Imhotep, one of the architects of the gods.”
As you can see, William Stukeley’s sketch from 1723 depicts Silbury Hill appearing taller and more steep than my photograph above.
The Avebury complex was successfully maintained for around 3000 years before it slowly began to decline due to changing circumstances. It’s impressive to think that Neolithic peoples planned and engineered a ritual landscape of some sixty square miles – no mean feat considering their ‘supposed’ lack of modern technology!
Avebury is aligned to each solstice and equinox, with the site being positioned on a pattern of the eight-fold Celtic wheel of life, death and renewal.
But it seems that only in Britain would we build a village and a pub in the middle of such sacred land!
Fossils and seashells have been found across the undulating downs of the area, hinting at some prehistoric sea that existed there many thousands of years ago.
A great on the ground video from Lambourne Photography:
Avebury is said to be part of a ‘pyramid of light’ that covers a large part of the British Isles, established in prehistoric times to protect the land and its sacred places.
Freddy Silva used satellite images to link Avebury into a triangle (what he calls a Celtic three-step), with the Isle of Arran, a complex of six stone circles in the Moor of Machaire, one of the most important temple complexes in Scotland. Arran is the site of giant’s graves and plentiful eye witness accounts of luminous flying orbs of light. It has been measured as a high energy hotspot with a natural radiation count of 33 percent above the background.
The third site on triangle is the hill temple complex of Kealkill in southwest Ireland, consisting of a stone circle, a radial stone cairn and two attendant standing stones. These three points form an equilateral triangle, connecting all three sites over a distance of 960 miles.
Interestingly, the ancient priesthood of the area were noted to be exceptionally tall and with elongated skulls. It immediately makes me think of the Paracas skulls in Peru, (there are some fascinating videos by Brian Foerester on these), linked genetically to those discovered around the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
The Druids then became custodians of the ancient Celtic sites, who carried on with rituals and ceremonies according to the temple tradition, where positions of the Moon and Sun reinforced the relationship between people-land-cosmos and the core values of the temple. This is how cultures were sustained through the mists of time.
Ley lines and energy grids
As the relationship between the temple and its underlying telluric forces was reinforced from season to season it served a two-way purpose of energising the place of power, which meant that the temple became a mediating influence on the energy grid of the earth.
In 1966 John Mitchell made an amazing discovery as he was visiting sacred sites throughout southern England. He happened to be on top of Glastonbury Tor, with its distinctive tower dedicated to St. Michael, all that remains of a collapsed church after an earthquake in 1275.
From the top he saw a mirror image across the landscape known as the Barrowbridge Mump, which is also crowned by a ruined church consecrated to the same archangel. He noticed a kind of communication between these identical hills, with identical churches on the same north eastern trajectory.
As he journeyed back to Avebury, Mitchell found that many of the mounds, hills and churches all dedicated to St. Michael (or his earthly counterpart St. George), were linked by a straight line, known in geodetic studies as a ley.
“One of the great surviving traditions states that Avebury itself is a great serpent temple marking the geodetic centre of a line of consciousness stretching from Land’s End in Cornwall (not far from Michael’s Mount) to the opposite coast where it meets the North Sea at Hopton. “
John Mitchell
This idea was later proven through the geodetic calculations of Robert Forrest, and followed up by the late highly respected dowser Hamish Miller and investigative researcher Paul Broadhurst, who confirmed that entwined around the straight pole of the Michael Ley Line runs a current of telluric energy, which indeed flows through dozens of sacred locations associated with this powerful archangel.
Interestingly, the founder of the Vesica Institute, Dr. Robert J. Gilbert, has talked about how we have now entered the Michaelic Age, marking a time of spiritual growth and evolution as well as technological progress, due to last for approximately 300 years.
When Miller and Broadhurst reached the 5000 year old site of Avebury they discovered a second telluric current coiling itself around this invisible axis. This became known as the Mary line, which, like the Michael line, ran through sanctuaries dedicated to St. Mary or her mother St. Anne. They found that the Michael line carries a positive masculine charge, and the Mary line carries a negative or feminine charge.
The human energy field which is shaped like a torus (an etheric giant donut) extends around the body which also carries these polarities.
Our DNA is a superconductor, an incredible 10 billion miles of compressed spirals of information code that conducts electricity, light, waves and photons, so that our very physical blueprint is electromagnetic in nature. Our DNA uploads, downloads and stores data! No wonder sacred sites interact with us in such a profound way.
The Michael and Mary Ley lines run parallel and intertwine at certain nodes, along a spine of sites aligned to the path of the rising sun on the Celtic solar festival of Beltane. These ley lines extend around the earth, reaching the centre of the megalithic sacred site some 6000 miles away at Tiwanaku in Bolivia, and then it reaches around to the holiest shrine on Hainan Island, the sacred mountain of Wuzhi.
An interesting observation about the Vitruvian Man and sacred geometry at Tiwanaku:
Mitchell, Miller and Broadhurst tapped into the living memory of the land, just as the Aboriginal First Nations people have done for millennia in Australia.
During a mystical experience in the 1920s the naturalist Alfred Watkins was horseback riding in Hereford when he stopped to take in the view high up on hill, where the land revealed to him a network of lines, “standing out like glowing wires all over the surface of the country, intersecting at the sites of churches, old stones and other spots of traditional sanctity.”
“Snakes whichsoever move along the Earth. Which are in sky and in heaven… which are the arrows of sorcerers.
~ Yajurveda, c. 9000 BC
This network of tracks criss-crossing the country became known as Harepaths in the Saxon times, or ‘spirit roads’. Two of these famous tracks can still be walked today, both crossing to the east of Avebury: the Ridgeway track and the Icknield Way (this runs through my neighbouring town, Princes Risborough in the Chiltern Hills) and passes through the heart of the stone circle itself.
There’s a lot more detail about all the different ley lines and their locations in Freddy’s book as mentioned at the start, but needless to say, they all seem to connect sacred sites around the world, in what Freddy refers to as a ‘world-wide web of sacred power places acting as permanent reference points of an archaic library safeguarding knowledge for the long-term benefit of the human race, where ordinary people were able to plug into the consciousness of a grid whose reach lies far beyond the confines of this terrestrial sphere.’
“The Earth is linked to the sun by a network of magnetic portals which open every eight minutes.”

The Avebury circle
As you approach Avebury the high embankments of the henge fully concealed the stones, so that the inner sanctum was hidden from view. The ancients viewed the temple as a foundation of life, the personification of cosmic forces in perfect equilibrium. If the temple was desecrated by impure energies the umbilical connection between earth and heaven is lost, leading to the disintegration of the tribe it once nourished.
Small stone markers have been placed where the original sarsen stones once stood.
A description of Avebury from Freddy Silva’s book:
“The outer stone circle of Avebury – or what religious fanatics have left of it – once comprised a perimeter boundary of 99 stones (as with Tiwanaku), with a diameter of 1,100 feet; its closest comparison is the Ring of Brogar in the Isles of Orkney, which was erected at the same time, suggesting a link between the two locations. Within this ring of stones are two smaller circles of 27 and 29 stones, resembling two eggs in a frying pan, each respectively calibrated to the sidereal and synodic lunar cycles.”
It’s hard to describe the sensations invoked by walking among these strong and silent stone sentinels, laid out in specific patterns with devotional and divine intention. They have been integral to the landscape for millennia, witnessing aeons of history and peoples. I felt an energy rush like never before; a connection to the past, a connection to the land, a connection to the firmament and, most importantly, a connection to my heart.
Temple builders from Egypt to England regarded temple spaces a living organisms that sleep at night and awake at dawn. Readings taken at Avebury highlight this phenomenon. The surge in geomagnetic energy when the stones are imbued with solar energy point to Avebury being circles of deliberately aligned magnets.
Freddy describes this energetic warp and weft in his book Portals:
“It works like this: every morning, the Earth is subjected to a rise in the solar wind, which intensifies the planet’s geomagnetic field. At night, this field weakens, then picks up at dawn and the cycle repeats. At this point the geomagnetic field interacts with telluric currents flowing along the surface of the Earth, intensifying the current, which in turn is drawn to nearby sacred sites. These invisible rivers travel better along soil with a high content of metal and water, and probably quartz.”
He goes on to point out that the ancient builders were expressing the same principles at work in a modern atomic particle collider (hello CERN), in which airborne ions are steered in one direction.
I sat in the ‘Devil’s Chair’ for a bit, a seat-like depression in the huge southern circle entrance stone. I had the most intense and exquisite tingling sensation along my spine, which lasted for hours. It’s as if the earth energies being transmitted through the stone turbo charged my own electro-magnetic field. The historic pejorative nickname given by ignorant individuals belies its actual healing properties.
The ‘Devil’s Chair’ is hewn out from the stone on the left hand side. I think sheep as well as humans enjoy the energy of the place!
William Stukeley’s drawing of the Devil’s Chair from the same view, 301 years earlier… Notice how many more trees there were in 1723.
Will and I had a lovely lunch in a café close to the manor and also a relaxing saunter around the village. There is something magical about Avebury that stays with you. It’s like a portal in time, one that served the spiritual needs of our ancestors, that still brings comfort and wonder to modern man, a place to take a step out of hectic schedules to a time when we were more in-tune with mother earth and father sky.
The Rollright stone circle
After an unbelievably stressful start to the year I needed a reboot, so I took some time to visit the Rollright stone circle in Oxfordshire during spring, after reading about it in The Divine Blueprint. It’s much smaller than Stonehenge and Avebury, little known and therefore less touristy, but it certainly packs an energetic punch, with the bonus of amazing views and walks. There’s also a wonderful garden centre a few minutes up the road that has very tasty sustenance for walkers and explorers of Rollright.
Again I experienced the tingling sensation strongly up my back for a considerable period of time; even after leaving the site. I’ve never felt this anywhere except in Avebury and at Rollright.
The convergence of ley lines in a triangulation pattern was discovered at Rollright by the late master dowser Dennis Wheatley. Freddy Silva also writes about the concentric magnetic energy currents with the circumference of the King’s Men in this article about the subtle energy of sacred places.
Rollright, March 2025
A fascinating talk about megalithic Britain (covering Stonehenge, Avebury and Rollright), by Dennis Wheatley’s daughter Maria, an expert in geodetic energies herself:
We owe respect and gratitude to our long distant forbears, these megalithic master builders and those who later protected and cared for such sacred sites. These ancient geomancers possessed technology and skill we would struggle to replicate today, and their reach was truly global; connecting many, many ancient sites and civilisations around the world.
They imprint a long lost wisdom about expanding consciousness, living in harmony, existing in balance with the natural world and each other. You could call it a ‘divine download’…
The entrance to Avebury, a short walk from the visitor centre and car park.
I do not believe such sites were arbitrarily selected and created with stone age tools, but rather, were the work of advanced beings that are connected by higher knowledge and energy grids across the earth. This suggests to me that there is much more going in the ancient history of mankind, that leads one back into pre-history, beyond the antediluvian age.
But that is an epic tale for another day!
“Pyramids, stone circles, menhirs, dolmens, sanctuaries and mounds. Regardless of their shape and size, they all were built by faceless experts from forgotten ages to the same end: to act as mirrors of the heavens so that ordinary men and women may be transformed into gods.”
“In my experience there is no such thing as luck.” ~ Obi-Wan Kenobi
Happy Star Wars Day! You know what’s coming… #MayThe4thBeWithYou!
There I said it. But the force is strong with all of us. That’s why Star Wars has become the biggest, most iconic modern story on the planet, indeed in galaxies far, far away…
Star Wars fans and geeks are celebrating all over the world, and gaming companies and the likes of Lego are putting out special offers to mark the occasion.
Star Wars isn’t merely a futuristic science fiction fantasy story franchise, it has somehow created its own religion. I think the fact that it seems to have taken on its own mythical status is because it speaks primarily to our human struggles.
It has caught our collective imaginations in a way that no other modern film story has, possibly with the exception of Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones.
We had the sad news of the passing of Peter Mayhew, who played Chewbacca a few days ago, may he rest in peace.
We also lost Carrie Fisher in 2016, who played the beautiful, beloved and sometimes prickly, Princess Leia.
I grew up with Star Wars. Episodes IV (A New Hope), V (The Empire Strikes Back) and VI (The Return of the Jedi) and they became ingrained in my psyche, having been watched and devoured multiple times in my childhood. They have a special place in my memories. Usually of family Christmases spent with a tummy full of roast dinner sat around the TV with us children practicing our Jedi moves and chasing each other with wild abandon around the house as storm troopers and fighters for the rebellion.
I’m sure many of my generation have similar experiences. Those films still take me back to my childhood, and my sons also love the Star Wars franchise.
Aside from the stunning visual effects, (the later prequel films seemed to focus more on this element than the story to their detriment), battles of cosmic proportions and the many strange creatures they encountered on different planets, (Ewoks were my favourite), they portrayed the eternal battle between light and dark forces, and the human decision about which side we gravitate to, of course complicated by choices clouded with massive grey areas!
The story arc of Anakin Skywalker; his rise from obscurity to his destiny as a Jedi Knight and his subsequent turn to the ‘dark side’ and becoming Darth Vader, the principle villain, as a result of manipulation of his anger and hate by the Emperor reads like reality. The negative situations in this world are driven and fuelled by anger, fear and hate. We all have a choice at any given moment.
The main actors almost became synonymous with their roles. But these stories that are loved and that continue to inspire millions of people across generations may never have taken off and conquered the universe had it not been for some skillful editing.
The first film cut of A New Hope by George Lucas was rough around the edges and needed quite a bit of work. Which means there’s hope for the rest of us!
This fascinating short film charts the journey from the early scenes to the final film that we saw on our cinema screens:
There are more than five lessons to take away from Star Wars for sure, but as time is short and the house won’t clean itself (I’m still waiting for that technological invention), here are the ones that have helped me.
My top five Star Wars life lessons:
It doesn’t matter if it’s not perfect to begin with
Life is a work in progress. This knowledge takes the pressure off, especially in creative pursuits – the first draft can be pants, as long as you get all your ideas down. It can then evolve into something more polished, as the video above demonstrates.
Imagine if Lucas and his team had not continued to work on the story and improve the audience experience?
Human history has shown us how the first rendering of anything was pretty rubbish compared with subsequent versions or inventions. But that didn’t matter, because it led onto mostly better things. That’s the nature of evolution, the ability of a species to adapt to its environment and improve its existence.
Now, in addition to the Millenium Falcon we have aeroplanes that can fly at high speed around the world in a matter of hours, phones that enable instant communication across the globe at the touch of a button, plus all of our modern conveniences.
The Renaissance, arguably the greatest period of mankind’s creative flourishing and artistic achievements could not have come without the cultural efforts of the previous eras. You get my drift. We are always editing our lives through feedback, but we have to start somewhere. All that matters is that we start, and keep going.
There is no try, there is only do
Or, to use Yoda’s exact immortal words: “Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.” I love this scene from The Empire Strikes Back where Luke Skywalker’s x-wing has sunk into the swamp on Dagobah, and he feels hopeless, thinking that he’ll never get it out. Master Yoda’s lesson on using the force doesn’t just apply to the film, it applies to us, to everyday life.
How many times have we found ourselves in a position where we felt powerless?
Maybe we find ourselves questioning our purpose in life at certain times. There have been many instances where I dipped my toe into the water rather than plunging in.
I didn’t understand the significance of this scene when I was a girl, but now, whenever I catch myself speaking or using the word ‘try’ in a sentence in relation to my life, I think of this scene, and I correct myself, telling myself: I do, or I do not do. I have to own my power.
That little teeny tiny three letter word TRY almost certainly condemns us to failure.
Family can be perplexing, but we should love them anyway
With modern ‘blended’ families and family dramas unfolding in the news, it’s no surprise that sometimes those who are closest to us tend to cause the greatest challenges in our lives! It can be almost impossible not to be dragged into or embroiled in family drama.
I see the constant media frenzy surrounding Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and her estranged father and my heart goes out to her. Not only are they dealing with their own relationship issues, but are having to do so under intense public scrutiny. Gossip mongers and trolls circle like sharks, waiting for either to stumble. It seems plenty of people are willing to share their opinion and judgement despite only having third hand information and no personal involvement.
Maybe for some it’s easier to distract themselves from their own troubles by focusing on other people’s problems.
In the original Star Wars trilogy Luke Skywalker discovers Princess Leia is his twin sister, and that they were separated at birth, and Leia and Han Solo fall in love while saving the universe.
Imagine how gutting it would be to discover that your daddy is Darth Vader?! He may want his father’s approval but he has to follow his own path and destroy him in order not to become like him and have history repeat itself:
Have you ever had a family issue? I might as well ask, is the Pope Catholic?
The parallels with our larger family, humanity are also startling. We all need to channel the wisdom of our ‘inner Jedi’ more than ever.
Imagination really is more important than intelligence
This one is partly inspired by Einstein, but the imagination George Lucas expressed through the creation of these characters that we can all relate to in some degree and their adventures across the galaxy continues to inspire creativity and storytelling.
Nothing exists in reality until it first exists in the mind. Ideas and thoughts are the precursor to matter.
Believe in yourself.
This was the core message that the Jedi’s had to embody. The connection between all living beings and ‘the force’, the universal energy that surrounds and fills all living things, (essentially our divine spark), which is the source of their power.
Self mastery was their ultimate goal. They could not control the actions of others, (except with the occasional Jedi mind trick on weak villains), but they could control their own attitude and actions.
Whenever I feel myself living in my head, not being grounded, I know its time to spend more time in nature and allow myself to feel what I feel in the present moment. Being in the ‘flow’ state.
How many times have we talked ourselves out of our greatness? Or not taken a course of action because we doubted ourselves?
This has been the hardest lesson for me to learn so far, and it’s still a work in progress! It takes daily courage and faith to be the Jedi of your own life.
Even though I know what happens in the films and no matter how many times I watch them I never get bored of them, just like listening to my favourite pieces of music. Also, having a great soundtrack can define a movie, and John Williams nailed it with his soundtrack to the original Star Wars trilogy:
A powerful story is timeless, and the vicarious life lessons therein worth seeing again and again. I think I can feel a Star Wars binge session coming on…
