Dowsing and Trees!

What does the ancient skill of dowsing have to do with trees?

Well, quite a lot actually! You might know dowsing as a method of finding water, but there is so much more to it.

This accessible and engaging workshop, led by professional dowser and geomancer Grahame Gardner (https://westerngeomancy.org), will provide an introduction to dowsing, including the use of the pendulum, L-rods and other dowsing tools, and show you how to integrate the principles of dowsing into your life and work, enhancing your intuition and decision-making skills. It's not just about finding water!

The day will consist of 2 x 3 hour sessions:

• Morning 1 - very basic dowsing - presentation and practical work

• Morning 2 - spirit of place and trees - presentation and practical work

• Afternoon 1 - the geomancy of labyrinths (presentation)

• Afternoon 2 - practical - creating and working with a labyrinth.

Attendees will then be able to try, under Grahame's guidance, dowsing themselves in the land around the Hall.

Grahame is a Registered Tutor and a Past President of the British Society of Dowsers.

The event has space for 15 attendees.

Tea and coffee provided upon arrival, lunch also provided, thanks to the Mossdale Hall team. (We'll be in touch in days beforehand for any food allergies/intolerances)
