Dorset Earth Mysteries Group
Talks in Detail 2004
January 15th - The Spirit of the Labyrinth.
Caroline Hoare
The Labyrinth is divine, mysterious and magical. It has been with us for
thousands of years and can still be found today in various forms all over the
world. As a natural spiral, it has been adopted by many cultures throughout
history as a tool for healing, meditation, self-discovery and connecting with
spiritual ancestors. Caroline has connected with earth energies through the
labyrinth for several years, introducing others to build and walk the
labyrinth. With slides she will cover labyrinths past and present and how we
can connect with them to enhance enlightenment, vision and harmony.

June 3rd - Britains Prehistoric and Celtic Shamanic Practices.
Serena Roney-Dougal
The roots of British shamanism (natural magic, witchcraft and paganism) extend
from the Neolithic stone circle builders. Through myth and legend we can
discern knowledge of their shamanic practices. One result is the Celtic lunar
calendar, based on the 6th C. Gaulish calendar discovered in 1897 at Coligny in
France. The system is native to Western Europe, having developed from the
ritual calendar of the megalith builders. Serena Roney-Dougal holds a PhD in
Parapsychology and is the author of "Where Science and Magic Meet"
(Vega Books) and "The Faery Faith" (Green Magic). She has spent over
30 years studying the scientific, magical and spiritual aspects of the psyche,
holding lectures and workshops in the USA, Europe and India, and presently
lectures on Parapsychology in India during the winter.
July 1st - Sacred Geometry and the Mystery of Matter, Space and Time
Heather Paton
Geometric Forms can reveal wonderful relationships between physical, fluidic,
gaseous, fiery and etheric states of matter. Using her geometric
models, Heather will show us manifold connections between the evolution of the
planet earth and the Temple of the Human Being. Heather is from New Zealand and
has studied sculpture, etheric movement, geometry and esoteric teachings.
August 5th-The Meon Way
Gary Biltcliffe
Through his research for a forthcoming book, Gary has discovered an ancient
pilgrim route whilst following the longest ley in the British Isles, the
Belinus Line. This route links sacred hills including Beacon and Brailes and
sanctuaries such as Uffington and Rollright from the Meon Valley on the coast
of Hampshire to Meon Hill in Warwickshire. With slides, Gary will guide you
along the 'Meon Way' which includes some famous and some lesser known places of
earth mystery.

Templar. Reflecting on their personal pilgrimages to these sites, Hugh and

October 7th - The Great Pyramid Decoded,
Alan Alford.
Alan made his first visit to the Pyramids of Egypt as a fourteen-year-old.
Following a string of academic successes he self-published "Gods of the
New Millennium", which became best-seller. A full-time writer since 1997,
Alan has published innovative solutions to the mysteries of
Judaeo-Christianity, Greek philosophy, and Atlantis. His 2003 book
"Pyramid of Secrets" has been acclaimed as "the best book ever
written on the Great Pyramid", while in 2004 he has published a companion
volume "The Midnight Sun". Tonight he travels down from his Midlands
home to explain his theory that the Great Pyramid was a multi-functional
structure: tomb, repository time capsule, memorial to the creation of the
