Glastonbury

The legendary Isle of Avalon. Glastonbury is the heart chakra of the world, a place of ancient mists, sacred springs, and a spiritual history that spans the Druidic and Arthurian traditions.

The Mists of Avalon

Glastonbury is sought by those following the path of the Goddess and the Grail. The land is believed to hold the memory of the ancient world. Retreats here focus on 'remembering' - reconnecting with your soul's lineage through the mythology of the Tor.

Sacred Springs and Tor Magic

Healing here centers on two sacred springs: The Red Spring and the White Spring. These represent the union of masculine and feminine energies. Retreats use these waters for ritual bathing to balance the internal waters and clear emotional grief.

Safety in the 'Thin Places'

Glastonbury is a 'thin place' where the veil between worlds is permeable. This can lead to intense emotional processing. Reputable centers provide facilitators who can hold a grounded space. Integration support is vital to help you bring the magic of Avalon back to reality.

The Michael and Mary Ley Lines

Esoterically, Glastonbury is the Earth's Heart Chakra. The esoteric fact is that it sits on the intersection of the 'St. Michael' and 'St. Mary' ley lines. This high-vibration field is believed to facilitate spontaneous heart-opening and deep release.
