Glastonbury Abbey

Full moon in Aries- Sat in Lady Chapel, Glastonbury Abbey.

I feel Mary Magdalene’s presence in here quite strongly, as well as the monks, fairies and the healing power of this place. I want to say I’ve never seen such a beautiful abbey, but to the eye, it is no more beautiful than the hundreds of churches I’ve been to around Europe. What is it then? It must be the soul, what this place does, has done. Enchanted land. Centuries of healings, of power, it has seen the imposible happen, miracles in the daily, where the invisible is accepted and searched for. A place of greater understanding, of love above all things.

I can also feel the war though, and the severity of this place- it is definitely not without it’s depth. It’s showing me that for these miracles to happen, darkness needed to knock on the door first. Make itself known. Both scars are visible: the power of the healing is only equal to the healing required, and that is measured by the darkness inflicted. This is not a place of lighthearted love and joy. It is deep with with twists and turns, peaks and valleys, darkness and light: the rich history of Avalon.
