About Ley Lines
We vacationed in Porthcurno, Cornwall a few years ago and the woman who lived next door to our rented house (which Britt is still convinced was haunted) told me about the Ley Lines that were apparently criss crossing over a near by town. Now I vaguely knew what ley lines were but here is a bit more information before I continue the story…
“Ley lines are alleged alignments of ancient sites or holy places, such as stone circles, standing stones, cairns, and churches. Interest in ley lines began with the publication in 1922 of Early BritishDrombeg, Co. Cork; Photo by Leslie Carroll Trackways by Alfred Watkins (1855-1935), a self-taught amateur archaeologist and antiquarian. Based upon the fact that on a map of Blackwardine, near Leominster, England, he could link a number of ancient landmarks by a series of straight lines, he became convinced that he had discovered an ancient trade route. Interest in these alleged trade routes as sources of mystical energy has become very popular among New Agers in Great Britain.”
Anyway, we visited this little town and I did my best to “pick up” on energy or whatever I was suppose to feel… but nothing. I have a feeling that maybe it was because it was a busy day in the tiny village or something was simply getting in the way.
We all loved Cornwall and chances are, we will return, but the house we rent has to be brand new. The back bedroom even creeped me out.
