Stonehenge - May 10th
I was in the UK for just a little over 24 hours, rested and
ready to go to Stonehenge. Everyone was disappointed about the weather but me.
It was overcast, cold and rainy, and I loved it. Oh it was such wonderful
weather for this Water Witch, and the perfect way to kick this vacation off. We
arrived just a few minutes early and were able to get into the gift shop before
it closed. We chose to have the 6:45 time slot which was just shortly after the
park closed it regular business hours. The gift shop was normal just like every
other gift shop, nothing spectacular except the jewelry made from the Preseli
Blue Stone. OF COURSE I bought a piece. There were many beautiful pieces laid
in silver, but I chose the beaded bracelet, one because it was affordable, and
2 because my mind started to wonder all these beautiful things I could do with
the beads after the bracelet breaks. (It was not bad craftsmanship, but I
always break bracelets made like this, it is inevitable)
When it was finally
time to go in I could hardly wait. Instructions were given to NOT touch the
stones, for various reasons. SHH don’t tell I couldn’t resist, I did. I had to,
how could I not?
The circle its self was
AMAZING, but there was something about the Heal stone that really fascinated
me. It was a large stone all alone outside the circle. No one was interested in
it, but I WAS! I was drawn to it, I don’t know if it was the shape of the stone,
or just the energy radiating off of it, but IMO it was the strongest of the
stones. It was feminine, soft and beautiful. It is as if it was alive
motionless but full of power.
Though I couldn’t take any dirt or small stones without being caught, I did pick this flower growing in the center of the circle. I pressed it and it has preserved wonderfully.
Here I am by the stones!
