Would you like to connect more deeply with your inner wisdom and the energies of the Earth? They are interconnected and you can experience them by learning the ancient art of dowsing (with rods or pendulums). Divining or dowsing has been used for thousands of years for many different purposes including finding water, oil, archaeological remains, missing people as well energy lines, and testing for allergies. This experience is aimed at beginners and an experienced facilitator will teach you how to dowse for water, archaeology and earth energies. Together we will discover the beauty of the moor and explore the energy, age and possible uses of a recently rediscovered stone circle, cairn and dolmen.
