WHOLISTIC WORLD VISION TOURS
(for CELTIC ODYSSEY TOUR ( 30 June - 7 July 2008) &
CELTIC ODYSSEY + CROP CIRCLE & CONFERENCE TOUR tour
(6-11 August 2008) SCROLL DOWN
Uniting the Red and White Roses
12 - 16 May 2008
Continuing our theme of earth energy alignment work along the industrial spine of England, we move north beyond the Peak District (2007 tour) towards Yorks and Lancs and the "Pendle Landscape Zodiac" in the Pennines. On this celebrated beacon in 1652, George Fox had a vision of the Quaker movement he was to establish and it is also associated with the 400 year old mystery of the "Witches of Pendle"! Furthermore, the area produced Sir Jonas Moore inventor of Greenwich Mean Time, Selina Cooper a leading suffragette and Katherine Bruce Glasier - founder member of the Independent Labour Party. Gandhi came to visit in 1931 and the industrial background also inspired C. L. R. James, Learie Constantine and Benjamin Ingham (friend of John Wesley).
Author Thomas Sharples has just published his inspiring book "The Pendle Zodiac - Restoration of a Sacred Landscape" and he will accompany us through the magic and enchantment of this powerful region, which has survived the Wars of the Roses and the Industrial revolution! Tom and his local associates have researched and identified grail figures mapped out in the landscape such as Percival and the Grail, the Horse Goddess, the Eagle, Phoenix, Griffon, Unicorn and the Dolphin. They also work to heal the land by reconciling the red and white roses.
