More Stones!


"Hmmmph! They don't make it easy to find these things do they Tanya?" If she could talk she would have answered. "Oh stop complaining. This is fine for me. You just climb up on that earth wall. I'll stick to the muck and the puddles cos I love them and it is, after all, the track."

We had left Carnac and our pleasant slot at 'Ponte de Po' and were on our way round to 'Quiberon' on the 'Quiberon peninsular'. There had though, been a 'feeling' a sense if you like, since the previous evening when I had perused the local map from the Carnac visitor centre. This map showed where all the local 'Neolithic stone sites' were. The 'Quadrilatere de Curono' out of all the sites grabbed my attention. So we had detoured to visit this site.

We had followed the map but what it did'nt show was a bloody great waterworks / sewage treatment works close by. I had to park Sadie round the side at the start of what turned out to be a very boggy and flooded track to the site with accompanying sewage nasal delights.
We did make it though and the actual site was far enough away to not be affected. It was also dry. With a bonus of the weather being sunny and warm.

This particular and ancient set of stones did have, for me, power. Let me explain. I find if I follow these hunches, senses or feelings I am always given something back. So it was at the 'Quadrilatere de Curono'. Most of the stones were still there and if all the stones were counted including the missing ones there were probably 28. A Lunar cycle.

I walked the complete rectangle touching and feeling with my hand each stone. Sure enough there was one stone out of them all with 'energy'. I sat, comfortably with back supported by my 'energy stone'. There was nothing extraordinary happened just a really quiet, calm and peaceful meditative half hour. The photo is of Tanya having her meditation, all 30 seconds of it, in front of the same 'energy stone'.

Often when I meditate there is a period where Tanya fidgets and paws me, wanting to go or maybe not approving of this master who has a habit of doing nothing whatsoever for odd periods of time. After a while she too settles, often on my lap, and remains so throughout.

Perhaps the 'energy' was received later. We stopped for lunch at a pleasant and very large pull off  off of the main road. The crowd I noticed as we pulled up turned out to be a meeting of owners of souped up BMW's. Some of them classics. We were royally entertained to numerous speeding and high revving throaty BMW's with accompanying good natured waves from the owners / drivers as they sped back and forth past Sadie. An entertaining and very different lunch stop. Tanya, let me tell you, was not allowed to wander free during said lunchtime!
