Gatekeeper Trust are very pleased to announce our 5th online conference on the theme of Sacred Space. We have invited six speakers to share their thoughts on the meaning of “Sacred Space” – a much-used term invariably meaning different things to different people.

The 6 talks and discussion cover what the term means to them and how they seek out, create, nurture and experience sacred space- this includes built structures, man-made landscapes, natural landscapes and water.

Speakers: Tom Bree, Caroline Hoare, Peter Dawkins, Claire Heron, Sarah Dawkins and Richard Creightmore.

We are very pleased to give further details of the speakers and their subject below.

Tom Bree: As Above so Below

Tom is an internationally renowned Geometer who has been practising and teaching sacred geometry for over 25 years. In this talk he reflects on how heavenly geometry is reflected in the design of cathedrals and other buildings. He uses the Lady Chapel at Wells Cathedral to illustrate the heavenly geometry of the Morning Star/planet Venus which are embedded in the design of the cathedral. The Moon is also present in the cathedral's design.

Peter Dawkins: A Discussion

A recorded discussion with Peter Dawkins around human intervention in the landscape and the creation of space which is loved and which, by extension, becomes sacred. We will look at ancient intervention by the creation of stone circles and mounds through to the current era, using examples which Peter has engaged with over the years. These include Jupiter Artland, Dream at Sutton Manor and latterly Tout Quarry on Portland. This has been part of Gatekeeper’s collaboration with the Portland Sculpture and Quarry Trust. https://www.peterdawkins.com/profile/

Caroline Hoare: Bosley Cloud- Sacred Energy Centre of Britain

Caroline Hoare is well known to Gatekeeper Trust members, having spoken at conferences over a number of years alongside Gary Biltcliffe. Bosley Cloud is a very special hill in North Staffordshire which features in their book The Spine of Albion and which has drawn them to the area on many occasions. Latest research serves to demonstrate the importance of this site as a sacred energy centre. https://belinusline.com/aboutus.php

Sarah Dawkins: Sacred Iona

Sarah Dawkins is a founding member of Gatekeeper Trust and with Peter has been in Iona many times over the last 40 years, leading pilgrimages and retreats and as private visitors. Sarah will share her experiences over the years that show
Iona as a truly sacred space. https://www.zoence.co.uk/sarah-dawkins/

Claire Heron: Water - The Sacred Gift

Claire has a lifelong connection with water since early childhood when she was brought up on a farm fed by spring water. She now lives close to two springs at the watershed between the rivers Lune and Eden which encircle the Lake District. She invites us to consider the way we relate to water as it journeys through our own body and into the wider external environment. She will be looking along the way at sacred wells and springs as a source to be honoured and cherished.

Richard Creightmore: Honouring the Earth Energies of Sacred Space

Richard has been a professional geomancer since 1986 and is a leading author and teacher of Earth Acupuncture for resolving geopathic stress. He has helped to situate and build sacred spaces such as stone circles and labyrinths and he also secures and enhances the earth energies of those and other spaces where he works as a consultant geomancer.
