Seven of us heard the call to go to the Orkney Islands to witness the Total Solar Eclipse from the oldest and one of the largest Neolithic sites in Britain dating to 5000BC. The Stones of Stenness is where our journey began calling the Ancient Animal guardians of Britain; Cernunnos the Great Stag in the East, Epona the White Horse in the South, Mona the Sacred Cow from the Isle of Angelsey in the West and Artor the Bear in the North.
Stenness
is a Solar temple and once had 12 stones so the passage of the Sun
around the zodiac could be observed. We also had been gifted Tibetan
prayer flags and a Tibetan spinning gong and we had Kushi wind chimes
attuned to the elements which I must say the numerous faery folk of
Orkney loved very much.
