The snow is gone. The time before the leaves come out is a great time to explore and see things in the woods. Leaves usually come out the first week of May, but who knows with this late spring. You have a few weeks. Explore and take advantage of this time. Below is the story of an experience I had recently.

I Was Changed—
The Vortex on The 4-Tiered
Mound on South Hill
The introduction to my book Vortices andSpirals begins with a transformative experience I
had years ago on a mountaintop in Vermont meditating in an energy vortex, what
I call a natural vortex. I had attended the Dowsers’ Convention at the
Killington Ski Resort as a speaker earlier that day and was depleted. The space
was awful; several lecture rooms even had negative vortices (drain you, create
geopathic stress and cancer) in them. So after dinner I left my campsite and
let my dowsing L-rods lead me to where I should meditate—it was a natural
vortex on a mountaintop. Not only did it burn off the clutter and negativity I
had taken on earlier; It changed me and gave me something I lacked, or needed.
The last Saturday of March I had another
transformative experience while meditating in a natural vortex on a stone mound
on South Hill. It changed me.
This was a rare event. Even though I
meditate in powerful sacred places that have been so for millennia, places with
divine aspects of Mother Earth such as Fields of Consciousness and Energy
formations. Places with strong imprints, what Hindu Vedanta calls samskaras
(the root of our karma)—basically memories that cling to the land and facilitate
mystical experiences. These places have
given me insights, sent me on journeys, provided answers, nourished my soul and
raised my consciousness; being blissed out with a spiritual high is a constant given.
But changing that quickly was unusual.
The Four-Tiered Mound At South Hill
In the spring of 2009 I was lead to a four-tieredmound on South Hill in High Tor NYS DEC WildlifeManagement Area. What
I call tiers are like terraces on the side of a hill. It was located on a steep
part of the hill in a large thicket and almost unperceivable unless you were
next to it; which given that the thicket with all its brush, prickly trees and
the other scrub is next to impossible unless you know where to look.
I marked a trail with ribbons and told only
one other person about it. Evidently they or someone else decided to take down
all the ribbons marking the trail to it. It broke the connection. Oddly that to
which I was guided to, I could no longer find.

I lost track. Took a job at Sears selling
appliances to pay my bills.
Then in 2015 I began to look for it.
Several times I wandered all over South Hill walking into thickets, briar
patches and similar numerous times. I started from the bottom of South Hill as
I did when I originally found it; as well as from the top. Drats I could not
find it.
Then in the Fall of 2017 I stepped it up. Starting
from the top of South Hill I found the large swath of thicket- half a mile, a
mile or more in length. I asked my dowsing rods to show me which way
(direction) the Earth Prana, what you know as the Life Force/Chi/Prana, was
flowing. I did this because the four-tiered stone mound covered Earth Chakras
and the Earth Prana would be drawn to those
Earth Chakras.
I approached this systematically. I found
other stone mounds and uncovered Earth Chakras. Imagine a maze with false
paths, dead ends that is made up of scrub, briars and trees with large prickles
that are like hypodermic needles. With each trip I was able to eliminate a
section.
Then one weekday towards the end of deer
hunting’s shotgun season in December I found it.
Now almost nine years later I was back. I
had returned with greater knowledge of Mother Earth and many more years of
meditating in power spots. I dowsed out
a very positive to extremely positive vibe, a water dome and an energy vortex.
I looked at the stone mound and saw within it stonework that I could now better
appreciate and understand its detail. While the stone mound was somewhat
disheveled there were noticeable tiers/terraces, or steps that made up the
stone mound.
I shot a few videos, took lots of pictures
and left. I knew I would not be back until the spring because snow was forecast.
I would have to wait to meditate in the energy vortex.

Finally, Saturday March 31, 2018
I was psyched. Finally my chance had come.
My plans were to visit Gossamer Wood www.gossamerwood.org, drive south along the eastern shore of Canandaigua
Lake to South Hill and finish with my friends Bruce and Linda in the southern
tier of NY.
It was a little after noon when I got to
the parking lot on top of South Hill. I met Bill VanDerveer who informed me
that the gorge was icy and covered with snow which made crossing the gorge to
get to the stone mound treacherous. Not only was it a great meeting that gave
me valuable information I also got to meet Bill who grew up in the area and was
a font of knowledge about the stone mounds in High Tor.
I drove down to the base of the South Hill
and began my climb. It was not long before I saw the large swath of thicket.
But where to enter?
I decided any point was fine. I just needed
to get to the other side of the thicket on the topside of the hill and look
from there.
The climb was steep and I walking on leaves
that made the ground slippery. Fortunately I brought my hiking poles and did
more pulling on my poles than climbing with my legs. After some time I reached
the top of the thicket. Now my search got serious, only it was getting late.
I found other stones mounds that I had
marked. Others I had not marked and more. I knew I was close. My rods showed me
the direction of the flow of the Life Force, but there were lots of Earth
Charkas pulling in the Life Force to them in different areas.
With little time left I found it.
I regret I am always in a rush, especially
times like this. But that is who I am.
I said some prayers and spread tobacco. I
took out my dowsing rods to find the natural vortex. I put my cushion down. Sat down and began shooting a video. Then I
began meditating.

The Prize
If you are lucky and meditate enough times
in a natural vortex you may transcend time and connect with the spirit of those
that created it. You will always connect with their consciousness, but sometimes
you do so in a very special way. It is a gift.
Think of the movie series the Highlander
where Connor Macleod is supposedly killed in inter-clan warfare in the Scottish
Highlands hundreds of years ago only to realize he is immortal when he does not
die after being stabbed. He learns that he is one of several immortals and that
eventually they must kill each other until only one is left. Each time someone
decapitates another immortal he gets “The Prize”, or a quickening; all the powers
and knowledge of the deceased flow into him. In this short video you can seethe formation of a vortex to transfer the power of the deceased to Colin.

| My seat cushion is on the Natural Vortex |
While meditating in the natural vortex on
the 4-tiered mound I sensed busyness to the area. I had several visions and saw
many people milling about on the stone mound. I felt really good, relaxed but
energized at the same time. That was it.
I scrambled down the hill.
On the drive to see my friends Linda and
Bruce I realized that I had some how been transformed. But how? I felt as
though instead of taking a small step forward I took a leap in my spiritual
transformation.
You Can To
I tell you this because you to can
transcend time and connect with the consciousness of others by meditating in a
natural vortex. You need to develop a bond with our Mother and shift your focus
towards Her. That connection is paramount. Unless you develop that bond
meditating in a natural vortex will at best be a mediocre affair. You need to
develop sentience of Mother Earth; to sense and feel Her emanations.
You should also eliminate things that are
harmful to our Mother such as technology. It is a well-known fact that too much
time on cell phones and technology makes you less emphatic and less
compassionate. That is because technology disconnects us from our Mother and
all of Her soul nourishing nutrients she showers us with. Technology suffocates
your soul, by robbing you of nourishment. Using technology while trying to
spiritually advance or connect with Mother Earth is like trying to be a long
distance runner while you are smoking cigarettes.
You will also have to learn basic geomancy
skills of dowsing for an energy vortex in order to find one in the wilderness.
I am sure many of you think that I am nuts
and asking for the impossible. Really? Think about all the eastern mystics and
texts that teach about all the karma and future lifetimes you take on with one lifetime
of bad actions. Technology puts bad karma and future lives on hyper drive.
Think about it. I am telling you about one
of the most transformative and wonderful consciousness raising experiences that
you can have. That I have had. You to can have what I experienced on South Hill
that last Saturday of March of 2018. You just need to heed my advice.
Hug your Mother and get rid of things that
harm Her.

I have several
videos on energy vortices on my YouTube channel MotherEarthPrayers
especially Energy Vortexes--Cosmic Prana
If a few people
are interested I will teach a weekend experiential workshop, Geomancy—Earth Magic-- Vortices, Water
Domes/Veins, Connectors, a Thin Veil Where you will learn about the magic
in our relationship with Mother Earth, what some call Earth Magic where we can
co-create a new birth with Her. An energy vortex is a prime example.

There is not much to the view from the vortex, but you aren't there for the view.
