We are sorry to announce that our treasurer Mr. Peter McDade (AKA Greywolf) is standing down as treasurer and committee member due to personal issues. We don’t think it’s because he’s about to run off with our bonus from the recent merger between our bankers the Portman Building Society and Nationwide. The outcome for us was a cheque for about a hundred and fifty quid. Many thanks are due to Peter for all his hard work for the society.
Peter’s stepping down highlights a pressing issue over committee members. We need a couple more to help run the society and especially someone to step in to the treasurer’s job. If you think you might be interested in helping have a word with Shaun (at a meeting or give him a call), to discover what you might be letting yourself in for. In the mean time Shaun is acting Treasurer as well as Chairman.
Members who remember Paul Barnett, former chairman of the WDS, and Caroline, often ask how they are getting on after their move to Bridport in Dorset, where they run a bakery. They are fine and the bakery, which is called Leaker’s, has recently won an award for the best independent bakery in Dorset. It is situated in the High Street in Bridport, and I can recommend sampling the wares if you should find yourself in the area. Incidentally, Leaker’s also got a mention in the Saturday edition of the Daily Telegraph. [Oct 6th.]
Shaun has been busy arranging the speakers for next season and these will be entered on the list at the back of the Journal as soon as the bookings have been confirmed.
The committee will be meeting soon to sort out the field trips for next season, so if anyone has a suggestion please let us know as soon as possible.
This year the fire festival is being held near Faringdon, on Sunday November 4th.
Please arrive about 16:30. As this should give us enough daylight to do some dowsing at this interesting site before the serious business of the evening.
If the weather is suitable we will be starting with a dowsing session near the river, before the bonfire gets going, but if the weather is not so good there is an alternative spot with more shelter. As those of you who came on the field trip to Paul and Jill’s farm last year will remember that there is plenty of opportunity for interesting dowsing here.
As in previous years, there will be a “pot-luck” buffet, so if you fancy bringing a small contribution of food or drink all will be welcome.
The occasion is usually good fun and does not go on too late. Don’t forget your wellies and sparklers!
The Fire-festival is the last outdoor event of the season. We don’t have a trip in December as most members are usually too involved in their own winter celebrations, or recovering from them, but we normally start again in January, so keep an eye on the list in the back of the Journal for details, which will soon be appearing. As usual for the winter trips, we will try to pick something that is not too far from civilisation in case of bad weather.
Peter Knight from Dorset was the speaker for September and gave an extremely interesting talk, despite a minor disaster occurring earlier that day. What happened was that Peter gave an earlier talk, during the afternoon, up at Banbury. When he got to Purton, just in time to set up his equipment for our talk, he discovered to his horror that the slides that he had been planning to use had been accidentally left at the hall in Banbury!
As the talk he was originally going to give, on ancient the stones of Dorset is heavily dependent on having the slides to point out features on, Peter decided to give a different talk, for which he does not need to use so much visual material. He did have a lap-top computer with him with some illustrations on it and he nobly rose to the occasion and talked about the subject matter of his latest book.
His previous books have been about sacred sites in Dorset and have been basic guides to, and explanations of these sites, but for this book he decided to try a different tactic and write in “novel” form, complete with a main character who travels around sacred sites each month and at key points of the year. The book describes the experiences at the sacred sites.
Peter explained that he was not trying to do a “Dan Brown”, but had chosen this more “user-friendly” format to try to interest readers who might not go for straight non-fiction books but who may well read a novel and then become more interested in further knowledge of our sacred sites.
A fascinating talk – especially in circumstances which might well have thrown many a speaker into strong hysterics!
Peter has promised to return next season, slides clutched to his bosom, to give the talk on stones which was the subject we should have had!
Late news - In fact he has been booked for next September.
The September field trip took place on the autumn Equinox and we were fortunate enough to get decent weather for it, always a bonus at this time of year.
I personally could not do much dowsing up on the barrows themselves as I was recovering from a leg injury sustained on holiday, [stupid woman], but managed to do some at a distance, from some of the paths. The site seemed a lot more charged up energetically than the last time I was there, several years ago, and I wondered whether this was an effect of the Equinox, which took place earlier that morning.
Everyone seemed to find that one of the barrows, which is topped by trees, had an enormously powerful effect on them. Some loved it while others found it a bit too much. I found a strong energy flow coming from the barrow opposite this and stood there for quite a long time as I found it seemed to have a healing effect on my leg.
Since the barrow site is extensive, we had booked lunch at a slightly later time in order to do justice to the barrows. This meant that by the time we got out of the pub, the weather looked as though it was about to change, so since time was getting on, we decided to leave the Uffington White Horse for a later date. S.C.
The article by Dennis Wheatley that we printed last month seems to have struck a cord with some. (Also it’s always nice to get complimentary mail)
Dear All
Thanks as always for an excellent newsletter.
I set to on Saturday afternoon and made a 'Colour Aid' as described on page 5. First attempt isn't brilliant but now I've got the hang of what it should look like the next one will of course be perfect!
Then, I thought, what now? So I tried out the aid around my house and garden. I found 4 high frequency lines, a brown, yellow, violet and white all of different speeds and polarity. 3 were electric and 1 was magnetic. Speeds were all 00 with 1 at 1C. That got the brain cells really working and of course the questions started to come in.
If white, infinite, and magnetic combine to give the highest spiritual combination, what combined with negative green gives the lowest? Is it electric and 1C?
Then, having found the 4 lines, their frequency and polarity and their flow direction, 2 running North to South and 1 running South to North and the yellow one coming down vertically the question is what can I then do? Is it possible to 'raise' the levels at all? Has anyone any experience of this? Would I start with polarity or colour or speed? How much could I expect to change in one go? Is it wise even to attempt to? Would the change be 'permanent'? What would help do this, crystals, magnets? etc etc!
Help please!
Best wishes
Beth
If anyone has any ideas they wish to pass on to Beth let us know and we will forward them. In the meantime here is an appendix from Dennis Wheatley’s book “Dowsing with a Difference” dealing with Colour Dowsing.
Over the past fifty years, research into the earth's natural energies has intensified.
Such energies can be detected with pendulums or rods but they can be analysed more deeply by a dowsing technique known as "high frequency colour dowsing".
An energy can be identified by three parameters:
• its colour on a thirteen colour spectrum
• its polarity in terms of magnetic (positive) and electric (negative)
• its frequency on a scale ranging from 1C to the infinite (C is the speed of light).
This fascinating dowsing technique I learnt from a German master dowser who is an internationally recognised financier and an expert in macro-economics. In it we enter a new field of dowsing, beyond the norm of simply detecting invisible targets, encounter radically new concepts and a vocabulary which needs to be explained. My friend didn't have any dowsing aids and used only his mind in this technique, but I have designed a dowsing aid, in the form of a double-sided protractor, for beginners to help them focus on the parameters. Let us examine this.

Figure 1 HF Colour Aid
One side contains a spectrum of thirteen colours, including two sectors identifying polarities: magnetic (positive, yang) and electric (negative, yin). On the other side there are six segments representing a scale of ascending frequencies from IC to the infinite. So, how do we construe these parameters?
Aerial, and earth energies, are dowsable entities, in themselves, but in a further dowsing step they can be identified as having distinctive colours within the thirteen colour spectrum spanning the range from negative green to white, including the rainbow spectrum from red to violet. Negative green energy is inimical to health and should be avoided. Most animals shy from negative green locations but cats are, strangely, attracted to them Stinging nettles thrive on negative green, and an isolated clump of them in open ground will, invariably, indicate a negative green location. White, at infinite frequency, is the highest spiritual colour and is beneficial. A negative green region is a form of `geopathic stress', or 'irritation zone'.
Of the two polarities associated with energies, magnetic (positive, yang) is elevating and electric (negative, yin) is enervating. Note how we are now talking of the effects of energies on living organisms such as humans, animals, and plants.
The frequency protractor extends from 1C to the infinite, so what does this mean? 'C' is the speed of light in this context but why, you may wonder, do we use multiples of light's speed to express frequencies? Also, in Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity the speed of light is a universal constant, the ultimate limiting velocity, so how can we talk of 2C or 5C? Firstly, using multiples of C is simply a shorthand way of expressing different frequencies since C is interlinked with light's frequency and wavelength.
C (light's speed) = frequency x wavelength
So frequency is simply C divided by the wavelength
On this basis, for example, a frequency of 5C is, simply, five times that of 1C.
Secondly, physicists at Oxford University and Cal-Tech, in the USA, have postulated a wave-particle, known as the `tachyon', which always travels faster than the speed of light, so C is no longer regarded as the cosmic limiting velocity.
The 'infinite' frequency is another shorthand way of expressing a frequency significantly higher than 5C.
David Ashe and Peter Hewitt, in "The Science of the Gods", see the speed of light as not an absolute universal velocity but a dividing line between physical and superphysical realities, demarcating the natural from the supernatural.
The tachyon concept indicates that there is more to the universe than the existence of space, matter, and light, and that there are what could he regarded as highly refined super-energy realms coexisting with what we regard as a solid reality. But even this reality of apparent solidity has long been regarded in yoga as `maya', the great 'cosmic illusion' born of the senses. Einstein underpinned this when he showed that matter was, in effect, energy related by light's speed in his equation: energy = mass x the speed of light squared (E = MC²)
The speed of light, in the physical universe of our senses, appears to be a limiting velocity but what of the tachyon and other realms of super energy?
Ashe and Hewitt posit other realms of super-energies each having its own critical, limiting velocity in terms of multiples of light's speed, C. Each critical velocity represents a boundary between increasingly refined degrees of energy. These realms of super-physical energies can be likened to a set of Russian dolls, or coexisting concentric spheres.
In parallel with this concept are the higher energy fields of animate and inanimate objects which are defined as auras. We are physical bodies of gross matter with ascending series of super-physical, concentric fields, or subtle bodies. These are defined as existing outside the physical body and are, progressively, the bodies known as the etheric, the emotional, the mental and the higher bodies. These minor the concept of superphysical, coexisting universes. In 'Stalking the Wild Pendulum' Itzhak Bentov explores 'relative realities' by means of a curved graph on an ascending scale of frequencies. The graph’s vertical axis represents 'quality of consciousness' on an ascending frequency scale from ʃ1 to ʃ12, and the horizontal axis represents the 'quality of consciousness', or how a nervous system copes with a variety of inputs. ʃl represents the lowest on the 'quality of consciousness' scale leading through the physical, etheric (or bioplasmic) through the astral, mental, spiritual, monadic to the divine - the cosmic consciousness, the absolute, godhead, or numenon. Terry Ross, the American dowser, came to similar conclusions working, independently, to the best of my knowledge. His 'sevens' chart of dowsing abilities extends from the physical to the absolute, or divine level and echoes Itzhak Bentov's relative realities.
So, in HFC dowsing how do the ascending frequencies relate to the superphysical levels discussed?
The various levels are shown on the spectral profile chart which will be discussed later. Here we have a link between the superphysical, auric phenomena, and ascending frequencies.
As a working tool I fold the circle into a semi-circle and insert a semi-circle of cardboard within to reinforce it. One can colour in the segments in their appropriate colours as an additional aid. Enclose the semi-circle protractor in clear plastic and you have an all-weather tool.
To identify the colour of an energy, place the protractor on the palm of your free hand and set a pendulum in a circular rotation mode just over the centre of the colour base line. The pendulum will, eventually, lose its circular momentum and move into a linear swing, selecting one of the colour segments.
Now repeat the procedure to establish the polarity of the energy.
To find the frequency, turn the protractor over to the frequency side and renew the dowsing pass; the linear swing will establish the frequency level of the energy.
My German friend and I analysed various ancient sites and some of the spectral diagrams we prepared are reproduced for readers to understand and gain experience by confirming them on site visits.
The Sanctuary was one of the earliest neolithic sites in the greater prehistoric Avebury metropolis. The final Sanctuary monument was a concentric ring of megaliths and the Kennet stone avenue led from the Sanctuary to the great Avebury henge. The megaliths are marked by oblong blocks.

Figure 2 The Sanctuary’s Linear Lines
At the circle's centre the Michael and Mary currents cross to form a node. A linear orange line runs along the centre of the Mary current and is shown dotted in the diagram; it targets a tumulus. Two yellow energy lines merge from the centre and cross at the most northerly tumulus in the cluster. A green, magnetic line passes through the southerly tumulus of the group and a red electric line targets the tumulus to the east. To the north-west of the outer circle markers are two concrete markers representing a pair of outlying megaliths. A student of mine discovered they delineated an aerial ley energy arriving from the north-west. This energy is violet and magnetic in polarity. It targets the centre of the circle and, remarkably, veers in a more southerly direction and courses to the East Kennet long barrow which is studded with trees.
My friend tracked the red, electric line for around 20 minutes and returned, somewhat enervated, but after three minutes resting on the Michael current - shown crossing the Mary current in a west-east direction - its magnetic (positive) polarity restored his energy level. Within minutes he was his old ebullient self.
This site was obviously considered to be sacred for almost 5000 years. The Neolithics created an earth work around it and the bronze age people built a tumulus within the earth work on the crossing of the Michael and Mary currents, as shown in the diagram.
The medieval masons built the church within the earthworks and its axis is set by the Mary current.

Figure 3 Ogbourne St Andrew’s Linear Lines
It was here that we discovered the orange line at infinite frequency passing through the tumulus and it linked with the central tumulus in the cluster near the Sanctuary.
Here was a new dowsing dimension; long-distance linear energy lines interlinking tumuli.
Another energy line, indigo at infinite frequency, coursed through the tumulus. Running parallel with the front of the raised earthworks is an ultra-violet line at 5C frequency. Here we analysed the Michael and Mary currents in detail. We found by pendulum dowsing the twin currents, from their leading edges to their trailing edges, that they exhibited multiple bands of different colours at different frequencies.
For each colour we plotted its frequency on the vertical scale of the profile graph and so produced their spectral profiles. Both currents had dominant colour bands at their centres; Michael's dominant colour was white and Mary's was blue. Both had infinite frequencies. The Mary current's variegated colours are shown in the diagram.
Note the central blue band in which run also indigo, violet and ultra-violet bands. Outside the dominant band the six colours, from black to green, mirror each other in perfect symmetry. Readers may wish to confirm these colours and establish the frequency of each. With the experience gained on this exercise. Try your HF colour dowsing talents in analysing the Michael current in a similar manner.

Figure 4 Spectral Analysis of the Mary Current
The large, concrete, pyramidic marker in the centre of Avebury henge's southern circle shows the location of the great obelisk megalith which once dominated the entire complex. The diagram shows our analysis of the linear energies at the marker.

Figure 5 Spectral Analysis of the Obelisk Location
We found, surprisingly, that all of the coloured lines were at infinite frequency. This, said my German friend, indicated the degree of the site's sanctity. He had only found a single location that was similar to this and that was at Glastonbury.
As we shall see in the geodetic energy appendix, the energies progress undulatingly, in zig-zag courses, in folded loops, looped progressions or in a reticulation mode. These coloured energies appear always to progress, linearly, across the landscape. Guy Underwood found, after decades of research, that undulating water lines and aquastats linked round barrow clusters such as the Normanton group near Stonehenge. We believe that further research will reveal that barrows are invariably linked with these coloured, linear energy lines.
Readers may wish to confirm our findings in the preceding surveys and widen their dowsing scope.
