Why can’t adults have their fairy tales too? Why do we have to live in an orthodox, cold reality because to do otherwise is ‘madness’!?
Why did the Druids build places like Stonehenge & why did Monks build the Abbey at Glastonbury, (with hidden escape tunnels to the Tor?!) Because Glastonbury has certain powerful energies running through it.
I have been fortunate enough to visit many, many times as I have friends that live in the town. Yes, there are some ‘mad’ people around, usually left over from the festival, that incidentally is held 10 miles away from Glastonbury. Dont rain on peoples parades Jay. Live & let live & allow us all to our fantasies & dreams.
Take a look around you at ‘reality’… it doesnt work for me most of the time! x

please lets get this said once and for all. king arthur never existed.its just a fairy tale for children and yet some adults as they like to call themselves think that by dressing up as pixies and goblins and trendy 50s clothes they are going to save the world, this is simply utter rubbish while i lived there i became fr5iends with a woman who ran one of the shops in the gauntlet. i asked s why she was selling childrens shrimp nets with ribbons on them for Â£7 a time. she looked me straight in the eye and said ” j they are for catching the fairies” true. the whole set up therre is strictly for personal gain, ie con the guillible tourists, the is even a druid who reckons hes the reincarnation of king arthur,rather neat cos how can you be a reincarnation of nothing.as lazy witch rightly states the whole things fiction. ive witnessed rampant drug use there ,drunken weed smoking vandals and i agree with Rose there is a certain energy there but its the same as the energy you feel after a walk by the sea side. i witnessed a greek orthodox minister praying one christmas to the christmas tree in the market square in glasto .when i asked about this the reply i got from the locals was its ok j we put up with it, hes mad.

I was fortunate enough to live in England during the early to mid-70s (yes, I’m an old Witch). Though I don’t recall Glastonbury being such a big draw at that time (vaguely something about a music festival, hippies and pot), I did visited Stonehenge many times and was in awe every time!! Back then one could still walk up to the stones, touch them, hug them!! It was WONDERFUL and the viberations that went througn one’s body was out of this world.

I do wonder just how much of the stories of Glastonbury have been fashioned by Marion Zimmer-Bradley’s books, “Mist of Avolon” and her other books. I do love them but nearly all the stories I’ve heard and read on different sites of Glastonbury are nearly identical to her books. It seems odd to me that she was able to find all that information when there was none of it back in the early 70′s. I’m not doubting Zimmer-Bradley (one of my all time favorite fiction writers) or the stories now told about Glastonbury, I’m just amazed by the likeness of the stories.

I have read your message about The Magick of Glastonbury and found it most interesting. I have resd that somewhere in the past that the aria was a larg Druid pagan ariafor training people in the pagin crafts and sciences. Very interesting!
