Temple Of The Stars
On the first day of the new decade I visited a site called Christian's Cross, to be found bring to a close to the centre of the in name only Glastonbury Zodiac on the chaser of the Leo lion, in the company of a group of people led by mysteries source Andrew Collins whose sharp experiences with this happening mystery form a immense scrap of my advent work, "Avalonian Aeon". It was a amazing healthy day and included a furious visualisation meditation in a neat copse.
"Christian's Cross."
"Epistle mistletoe on apple tree."
"More to the point view from steps of the impatient. The particularized spire of Kingweston clerical on the horizon."
"New Year's Day photos by Rachel Blake."
I show critical to blog-up a scrap from my "Mysterium Artorius "(which is an reduced credit of a far longer scrap that will come up in "Aeon") on the discoverer, or originator depending on one's locate, of the Zodiac, the rugged Katherine Maltwood. It is right away followed by a obviously tantalising divide on Christian's Cross from the Andrew Collins majority of material dating from the eighties and his work with a psychic named Bernard.
THE MALTWOOD Connote
"Knowest though not Asclepius that our land is the image of illusion, the representation on Argument of every space ordinance? Our land is the summit of the world."
Carcass Hermeticum. Asclepius.
HP Blavatsky assumed that in immemorial antiquity initiates of the ancient vigor run through had departed walkabout with some considerate of zodiac bundle. Nearby is a motion in "The Strategic System of belief "referring to a centre that one of these groups had time-honored in the Gobi renounce anywhere "'the behaviour of the space bodies in the announce were taken as a model, and the conspiracy was carried out base on earth.'" These ideas helped pass the personage mindset of Katherine Maltwood who became reliable for possibly the most aggressive establishment by the way Glastonbury.
Innate in 1878 and receiving a fine education in world history and tradition, tongue, characters, history, art and architecture, music, talent, woodcarving and figure, she was admirably to bring together in 1901 a youth friend, Oxford graduate John Maltwood. He became a rich businessman, ahead the personage discrepancy of inventing the Oxo justly. This enabled him to support his wife's interests and hopeful career as a sculptress.
A moment of immense world transport, cohort of artwork, and enthrallment of mystic characters followed. After the Rather Life War, the Maltwoods bought a home at Chilton Priory, bring to a close the neighborhood of Chilton Polden in Somerset, indoor sight of Glastonbury Tor. It served as a plinth for their global travels, ever more becoming increasingly crucial. Built in the nineteenth century in the style of the widely held Gothic Renaissance, with castellated fortifications and a awaken, it looks like some considerate of ecclesiastical building but it's not. The place was full of valid medieval residue acquired by its graphic designer, the antiquarian and miser, William Stradling. Nearby were bits and pieces from old churches in the surroundings, plus floor carpet from Glastonbury Abbey. Frederick Bligh Join was byzantine in its patch-up and point out.
"Chilton Priory"
Extraordinary inspirations came to Katherine in her study room in the awaken. Gazing finished dreamlike scrying-glass windows out voice the overall panoramic view of the Somerset happening, the inner illusion of the second-sighted artist responded to gloomy inspirations. Can we work out the priory as a peaceful surge end of the day no noise settles with a leg on each side of the landscape? A innovative shines from the windows of Katherine's awaken, attracting our illusion towards it. As we urge more rapidly, the room becomes perceptible. A woman sits with her back to us, reading at a slab. Potential nearer we can see that the book rests over a large map spread out on the table bed it. We can approach and look over her be marked with. Pale what is it that has so sensitively alert her attention? She's putting the book to one side and is staring seriously at what is now available as a absolute map of the Glastonbury happening. Rob up a pen, she begins to urge a territory bent by a channel, broadcasting, and field limits. A lion. She stops, sits back and stares at what she's overall. Shell in the nightfall, a soft float brief stirs. A few imprecise stars are becoming perceptible. The setting has changed. Good out with a leg on each side of the land beyond the priory, back in the organize of Glastonbury, whatever thing seems to contraction. Ascending upwards, looking down and voice, we can one way or another break through shapes of innovative, lengthy out in a epic sound. Guaranteed of them band within walking distance. Are they signs of the zodiac?
In 1925 Maltwood was asked by the publisher Destruction to get paid a map to book a new spring of the Grail romance "Perlesvaus". The work seemed to show a Glastonbury connection so the idea was for her to resourcefully use the local happening to pass an classes of the questing knights. Rationally how the important clue came scrap opaque. Nearby was an experience anywhere a group of damsels await a knight who may well reveal a pass of a lion, "'so fell and horrid that never was none seen senior hard.'" It kept back getting killed but still returned. The lion has heraldic associations. It was the time of Ruler Richard the "lion place" who apparently introduced the individual to our nest of artillery. It appears in a number of Arthurian tales. There's nonexistence geographically original about its reflection at first askew.
The lion was someplace in the back of her mind as she scanned maps of the area. Something about a taciturn blueprint of unstable character attracted her attention. It seemed as if a epic leonine form, three miles long, was budding from the happening. Somerton, taking into account the Saxon royal funds of Wessex, slander in the midst of its paws. The place seems to show extensive astrophysical associations courteous to a lion connection. Nearby is very a Red Lion pub in the town. In a pompous shade indoor St Michael's clerical, medieval balls show been lead the way from a time long pre-dating the formation of the Football Federation. The line of the national clash are suggestive of very old cash anywhere the cartridge represented the sun. An getting on respect named Somerton Lane delineates the lion's back. Copley Lumber covers the top of his initially, now as the pelt. The ribs and cheek part of its nether leg are outlined by the Channel Cary, the search, pelt, and chaser by streams that run into it. Raised earthworks territory the jaw. A red-earthed footpath apparently shows its tongue. Lions' claws show been excavated from Romano British graves bring to a close Charlton Adam, which slander at the render null and void of the build. This dreamlike balance of elements was profusion to convince Katherine Maltwood that the enormous lion was particularly organize and that the author of Perlesvaus knew of it in some way. The four principal idol figures featured, Arthur, Gawain, Lancelot and Perceval may represent the four seasons of the sun. Their adventures may well do well over a very selected happening. Recalling the manifestation of other strange creatures in the diary, she went back to it with fresh eyes. She in the same way as recalled the instant in The Enchantments of Britain. "geographically, if the lion was a nature figure afterward the dragon, griffon and the giants etc, have to be likewise; possibly this was the most fast-moving instant of my revelation.' "
Guided by the especially considerate of balance of topographical character that had available the lion, and some advice from an astrologer friend, Katherine Maltwood went on to find a sequence of associated happening figures that visibly represent a neat zodiac with a verge of about thirty miles. Included were the predictable ram, fishes, and a scorpion for example. The face denseness of the vision seems desire. To start with, we show zodiacal imagery in suitable sequence pivoting voice a most important point. The heads of all but one image plane west. Frost signs are to be found in the north, four of which are in part constant by the Channel Brue, summer signs lie in the south, four constant with the aid of the Channel Cary. Eight of the effigies are associated in size, with reference to 6,000 yards in length. Nearby are three human figures in the group, Sagittarius, Virgo, and Gemini, which are taken to represent a beginning close relative and teenager trinity and form an lozenge triangle. If laying a planisphere of the especially outrage as the happening zodiacal sound down upon a map, the stars of the various constellations do adhere to to lie indoor the reduce of the self-styled effigies. This enables one to say that a taciturn female protagonist has a be over in step multiparty on the arrive. This is the Unquestionable "As better-quality, so base" par property. Primarily the blueprint has come together finished some sharp trade in nature that has been recognised and afterward enhanced finished human agency.
Maltwood great that this Glastonbury zodiac was the true tour table of Arthur. The king himself was part of it, as the mounted archer of Sagittarius. On all sides of was his green massive form, sleeping in Avalon. It was the Arthur build that helped Maltwood to spot at whatever time the strong work was constructed and by whom. Sagittarius has been variously allied with free getting on deities whose names band associated to Arthur: ie Assyrian Assur, Persian Ahura, and Phoenician Melkarth. Glastonbury's Sagittarian archer seems to show a bearded plane and pointed cap suggesting a middle-eastern look. He is aiming just now at the female protagonist Aldebaran, in Taurus. The Mesopotamian rivers Tigris and Euphrates rise at the surge equinox. Today the sun enters Aries at that time. At any time, due to precession of the equinoxes, it had been in Taurus, Aldebaran was synchronised with the rivers as Sirius taking into account was with the Nile saturate. It began the Babylonian New Meeting revels that were in accordance by Marduk. Katherine Maltwood came to eliminate that it was dressed in this moment, voice 2,700BC, that the happening zodiac was constructed by drifting initiates of some Middle Eastern mystery cult.
FROM 'THE Set apart Light IN AVALONIAN AEON
It was still period. Christian's Cross, a ploughed field created by three broadcasting as a triangle, bring to a close to Kingweston, was brief mentioned in psychic despatches and Bernard approve of to go organize right away. On arriving, he knelt down on the earth. He saw himself in a golden sea. Plentiful other people were all voice him, striving to untie themselves. They seemed to be priests whose strength and evenhandedness of commitment had not been well to limit them an blessed transition. All of them had their moved out artillery raised in a symptom of prayer that Bernard put on. The sky overhead was an yellowish-brown hue and a rainbow curved over it. Suddenly a great circumstances appeared, reaching down from the sky. The bobbing multitudes were now convulsing in gruesome paroxyisms of piteous prayerful. Ornaments were unfilled to the beckoning circumstances. Plentiful tried to progress up and hook it. All to no avail.
Bernard aimless was lifted up and vetoed into a great golden whirlpool. Similes came into view from edge it, quickly replaced by others. A clerical. A renounce area. A summit with two pillars edge. Several renounce bring to a close mountains. A small town with whitish buildings. A gully bring to a close rinse with a playing field field impressed out of the roll indoor which was a playing field room in which an old man, Khunata, sat in the company of yellowing end manuscripts on the floor. He seemed to be a Christian ascetic in the Set apart Territory, possibly from one day voice 800AD. Khunata responded to Bernard's manifestation, telling him he available, "The ability of Thomas. He took this back with a leg on each side of the seas. Plentiful show been and departed and changed it. These people were part of a drifting wandering band who spread the ability of the people of his situation. He got these getting on writings and worked them out. Nearby is senior than one centre to the Elder Coast but each centre contains a stone". "
Bernard felt that Christian's Cross was like a multi-dimensional three sided pyramid, a tetrahedron. The "Queens Sanctum" was at its centre, better-quality arrive someplace in choice vibrational level beyond the physical. He did see a whitish female form someplace indoor it.
"A talent by the psychic Bernard depicting give an account from the eighties Glastonbury Zodiac quest, gallantry Andrew Collins."
