Interesting. Very.

"Just because it's a vortex, it doesn't mean it's spiritual."

I've had a nasty experience at a place called the 'Rollright Stones' here in the UK. Now, I love stone circles and all the ancient sites of my Celtic ancestors, [although Stonehenge is an impostor in this regard IMO, so I don't count that, and I've been there plenty of times and get no resonance off the whole thing whatsoever....in fact it's always puzzled me as to why our Druids bother with it at all].......aaaaanyway....

At the Rollrights there is a legend.....that if you stand in the centre and count the stones [more than 30 I should say], you can never count the exact same amount. So, me being me, that's exactly what I did.
This was years ago, 1988 or so.....
So anyway, broad daylight, my friend nearby.....3rd or 4th count of the stones....different numbers of course....and then...blammmmm.....
ejected right out of the stones, literally screaming.......insist that we get in his car....terrified......go! go! go!....get me out of here NOW.........as we pull away BANGING manifests on the side of the car from nowhere...broad daylight..........felt a bit ill and low after....

Then, me being me, I repeated this whole excercise years later [about 4 yrs ago]........recited Invitus [just a favorite poem] in the centre of the stones, counted them.... different counts again......and then nothing.....or so I thought.... later that day we were walking down an ancient holloway in the woods near Edge Hill [where there was a huge battle once, many many dead] and we had a stalking/haunting [including wolf whistling, very strange!] which took alot of my power to counter[balance.]
Then later that day, lying exhausted depressed and in a foetal position, and this has never happened to me before. utterly drained.

The circle there has a folk rumour around it, that it has been used for unsavoury practices, but this felt like something much more to me.
Perhaps the reason why people of that persuasion were attracted to it in the first place.

Sorry for the essay,
but this thread really made me think about that experience.

Needless to say, me being me, I want to go back there.

Any thoughts?
