This is Gawton's Well, in a place some call Druid's Grove. The well is claimed to have curative properties for skin conditions. The last picture shows the stone where the hermit Gawton lived, it was not very roomy!

The well is said to be holy, though it's not clear who to. If the well is old enough, it may predate Christianity.

I'll return to film there later in the year.

Gawton's Well, and some of the channel leading from it in Druid's Grove.

Ritual fire to welcome the Spring Equinox, which arrived at 5:01 Eastern Time this morning. This afternoon, I ceremonially burned the Yule wreath I made on this past Winter Solstice, December 21, 2024, as well as the greens-festooned star that decorated my gate during the winter holy days.

#Tarot card of evening: The Hooded Man-IX (The Hermit-IX).

As an old saying goes, you want peace, prepare for war. Plan ahead, be prepared, and practice those drills. You want to be able to execute swiftly and efficiently when something goes down.
