Learn Water Divining with Hella Coenen

Water divining or dowsing is an ancient art that everyone can learn, with practice.

It was 35 years ago that I went to do a course in Amsterdam and learned how to look for neutral (low energy) locations that are good for sleeping places. High earth energy, which usually means flowing water, is not beneficial to sleep on.

Whenever a new piece of land is to be lived on, it is ideal if a dowser assesses the land before putting pegs in the ground for living spaces and other land uses. 

At our gathering on Sunday 8th Sep, each participant will get a practice hazel rod and we will learn some of the basic skills and concepts. We will practice various ways of using our dowsing rods.

We have some potted-up trees ready to plant, and we will ask them: are you a seeker of earth energy or an avoider? Some trees thrive on crossings for example but most trees are avoiders.

We will spend time scanning the landscape and walk up a steep track to a stone circle, made on a strong energy field or vortex 10 years ago at a previous dowsing event. A medium level of fitness is required for the walk to the stone circle, and we will have a small morning tea up there, please bring any snacks or small things to share if you have the capacity. 

Dowsing is a very useful skill to have in life, whether to find a water source and other underground features, sleep better, or garden!

This workshop is limited to 20 places, we have an on-site covered option so the event will go ahead regardless. If it's a fine day, families may want to bring their children and go to the outdoor classroom area to play if they wish.
