 Tesla - The Maverick Hungarian..

Legend, magician, sorcerer, time traveller, or simply an extraordinary scientist who was just way ahead of his time. Nikola Tesla, born in 1856 was one of the most mysterious persons to walk on the earth.

 Decades ago, French diviners travelled to Egypt, and noted that in the Valley of the Kings one burial contained a pendulum device. Furthermore, the pendulum devices were painted on walls and upon stone temples.

After much research, the diviners realised the relationship between the Sun-the great god Ra-and the Earth Goddess was paramount to health and well being as well as allowing dowsing to decode earth energies. The relationship between the Sun and the Earth gave birth to a powerful earth energy which Maria will describe in detail.

 Next year it will be 800 years since King John of ‘Robin Hood’ fame lost all his Royal Treasures in the Lincoln Wash. It had been John’s favourite hobby collecting jewellery, gold, silver plate, relics and other valuables.

 The Wheel of the Year represents the cyclical wheel of nature, the changing rhythms of the seasons. With illustrations, Roma will explore each of the eight Celtic festivals, marked by the solstices and equinoxes and four cross-quarter days: Imbolc, Beltane, Lammas and Samhain.

 After visiting many Celtic sites around Europe, Gary Biltcliffe and Caroline Hoare discovered that these ancient tribes marked their territory by locating and honouring its geographical centre or ‘navel’ by either using the nearest natural feature or by constructing mounds, stone monuments, and ceremonial earthworks and re-shaping sacred hills to create a link to the cosmos.

 The positions of churches in the South Dorset landscape, when connected together by drawn lines (church symbol to church symbol on the 1:25,000 scale map of South Dorset) reveal deliberate meaningful patterns. Jonathon will be describing and analysing these patterns. The hypothesis is explored that these patterns were created in the late Roman period and that, where parish churches now stand, there were once early Christian sacred sites.
