Wheel of Life Full Moon Meditation – Taurus sun/Scorpio moon

Wheel of Life Full Moon Meditation - Taurus sun/Scorpio moon – 12th May 2025 (Lunar Beltane)

The full moon link-up is offered as a way of connecting with other ‘inner pilgrims’.  You are invited to join in at 12 noon on this date - Meditation is a personal journey, which unfolds in our unique ways. As we attune together at 12 pm we can make our prayers more powerful with a common focus. For those who feel connected to this particular work of the Gatekeeper Trust perhaps we could share the focus of a wheel of silver light spinning in the British Zodiac, radiant and happy.

TAURUS SUN FULL MOON SCORPIO
12TH May 2025
12 noon local time

THE THEME FOR TAURUS SUN OPPOSITE SCORPIO MOON

We are the builders of new vision, and collaborate with the earth’s various spirits of place through whom we tap into the ‘Nature builders inspiration’, activating the act of creation: from seed, to sprout, to root and leaf, to bud and flower revealing the inner beauty of Nature. This beauty is synthesised from our own innovative, loving imagination. Our first step is to create our ‘dream team’ of spiritual friends and companions, together to dream ‘the good dream’.

The ‘lunar opposite’ Scorpio represents the intuitive response to the Taurean quest to build with vision: Transform the world of the senses with a passion for truth and wisdom’. The ‘inner magician within us’ is awakened at the ‘sounding of the quest’ for a good dream of beauty.

‘The Dream’ of the miners who worked at the coal mines now replaced by the… Park:Dream, a 66-foot-high (20 m) sculpture located on the old Sutton Manor Colliery site, St Helens.

‘the head of a nine-year-old girl which is representing this idea of the future.which is absolutely unique’ said the artist.

SEARCHING FOR A NEW ‘UNIQUE’ FUTURE

As researchers into megalithic sites, we build a rapport from the earliest of ages, seeking to uinderstand the inspiration and intellect of original cultures. So we have built our modern civilisation based on Pythagorean mathematics, but where did Pythagoras get his inspiration? The researchers such as Howard Crowhurst who studied the great lines of stones at Carnac, enabled others to identify ‘Pythagoras’ dimensions of the sacred triangle of 3-4-5 and uncover the relationship between Stonehenge, Lundy Island and the Castlerigg Stone Circle in the Lake District.

Our ancestors’ ‘dream team’ became illuminated through Pythagoras the Greek Philosopher who gave to much wisdom to future ‘good dreamers’ that built our present age. Furthermore, the way the sacred triangle was calculated through observation of the passages of the sun and moon, are still a part of modern builders ‘vertical adjustments’ are made for buildings, observing the shadows cast by the light of the sun.

THE SIGN OF TAURUS IN THE BRITISH ZODIAC creates a cusp with GEMINI. Chester, Manchester and the industrial midlands grew to refine the original ‘Cistercian’ engineering wizardry with agriculture and water energy systems. Praising God, and worshipping through hard work in the fields and healing arts, knowledge spread fast…. Within the archetypal landscapes of the ‘starmap’ of the ancients.

Moreover, the philosophers of the Elizabethan era, those who studied with the ‘magi’ or alchemical philosophers of the age, seemed to know of the power of the stellar map, and constructed a ‘dream team’ of builders and teachers to establish the Shakespearean theatres along the TAUREAN/GEMINI CUSP. The archetypal energy invested in the lands by pre-Pythagorean ancestors could be tapped, and creative story-telling began to crystallise the metaphors of the ancient druidical order: transform your own powers through co-creating new forms of culture along with the earth’s wisdom.

Peter Dawkins researched the ‘cryptographic’ knowledge of the ancient alchemical texts being studied. At the time, Britain and France were at war, and spies were sent having been training in the use of cyphers, to tap into the strategies being discussed in the French Courts. The plays by Shakespeare, were, Peter considers, centred round court life specifically as it was lead in French royal palaces.

The Industrial Revolution grew out of the wisdom put into action, that Nature is a force to cultivate and celebrate.

THE ‘DREAM TEAM’ OF SHAKESPEAREAN ARTISITS:

THREE Theatres on the Milky Way alignment – landscape alchemy ‘pooling the energy’ of the archetypal ‘human family’ of mankind.

The Rose Theatre, South Bank London.

1. The Rose Playhouse South Bank Southwark, London.

The modern Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre:

The Globe is named in reference to ‘all the world’s a stage’ – the mystery behind the plays indicates the human dilemma of acting from an unconscious human condition to a state of enlightenment, of insight into daily experience and resolutions.

2. Swan Theatre Stratford

3. Prescott ‘The Shakespeare North Playhouse

The Cockpit Theatre,

– SW end of Pendle Hills there is Houghton Hall where it is said Shakespears once taught. Pendle Hill looms as a dark, eerie backdrop to one of England’s most infamous witch trials. The hill in Lancashire was once a symbol of fear, superstition, and the chilling power of accusation in a time of mass hysteria.

Associated with the witch tradition, could be a indication that the ancient sacred sites of Pendle Hill were a source of ‘earth magic’…

The Shakespeare North Playhouse, Prescott: The new theatre's layout is based on the 1629 design by Inigo Jones for the Cockpit-in-Court theatre in the Palace of Whitehall, London.[6] The architects are Helm Architecture[7] and Austin-Smith:Lord.The lead artist is Simon Watkinson.

Plan of the Cockpit-in-Court is similar to the now popular Globe Theatre in Southwark.

ALL THE WORLD’S A STAGE - AND THE STAGE BUILT LIKE THE WORLD

The ‘globe’ as an archetype of the megalithic landscape of stone circles and burial mounds keeping old traditions alive for upcoming generations..

Pendle Hill Barrows - considered of great significance, now a pile of stones!:
https://www.pendlehillproject.com/prehistoric-mysteries

The Devils Apronful likely represents two barrows close to each other. The first of these is a ring bank cairn, about 10m wide. Most of the original stone has been disturbed to build a modern cairn on the edge of this monument, but the large built structure is still intact.

Image: The Devils Apronful stone scatter

The second barrow is an 18m wide embankment. This represents the disturbed cairn and its hollow centre; this is near a modern cairn erected by out- of-work dry stone wall builders in the 1920s.

wIKI: These barrows have a local legend attached to them. In this particular legend, the devil was walking from Accrington with an apronful of stones to throw at Clitheroe castle. He stepped from Hambleden hill to Craggs farm, were he left these footprints on a rock. When he was walking over Pendle Hill, his apron string broke. The rocks he was carrying spilt on the ground, forming the Devils apronful mound. This is a variation of very common legend about barrows. They are often associated with devils or giants, who create these barrows accidentally when their plans are foiled. It has been suggested that this legend represents the local peoples dislike of the castle, and the people who built it.

…However, the density of barrows in Pendle suggests that this was an extremely sacred space. The people of the Bronze Age who created these prominent barrows would have taken time and skill to construct them, showing their importance as an addition to the landscape. Barrows can often be seen from the site of other barrows in the area. It makes sense that the barrow on Worsaw Hill can be seen from the site of Apronful Hill.

CISTERCIAN MONASTERIES AS SEED-POINTS FOR FUTURE TECHNOLOGY

WIKI: Near Worston is Sawley Abbey. This was a Cistercian monastery founded in 1147 or 48 by William De Percy. This building has been extensively altered in its lifetime, from its founding to its closure at the dissolution of the monasteries.

Sawley Abbey was continually in conflict with the nearby Whalley Abbey. Whalley was much younger, having been founded in 1296 by monks moving from Stanlaw Abbey in Cheshire.

INNOVATIONS DEVELOPED FROM SCHOLARLY LIFE: The classical Latin texts were central to Cistercian ‘obedience’ adopting the ‘classical and liberal arts’.

‘Unlike in ancient Rome, where Latin was a living vernacular, medieval Catholics approached it as a sacred and scholarly language, preserved and taught systematically to serve religious, legal, and cultural purposes.'

It must have been from classical texts of Greecefrom which the water technology was developed:

‘...the ancient Greeks of Athens used an indoor plumbing system for pressurized showers, the inventor Heron applied this system of pressurized pipes to put out fires in the city of Alexandria (Aitken humanities, 2021).

https://ancientengrtech.wisc.edu/

The Cistercians built on their studious life, and knew how to tap water from rivers, and like the abbeys of Bolton and Fountains, bult to take advantage of the water source. Fountains had a hospital built over the river, while Bolton was positioned at the bend of the river where the water energy would have leapt from one curve to the other. This technical knowledge and skill became a seed for the Industrial Revolution… the great experiment in our built environment.

The Catholic tradition was replaced by the protestant

THE REFORMATION: GATHERING THE ‘DREAM TEAM - APPLYING THE KNOWLEDGE OF CLASSICAL WORLD STUDIED BY THE SECRET ALCHEMICAL SOCIETIES

The ANCIENT STUDENTS OF ALCHEMY – THE MAGI IN THE 17TH Century picked up the ancient texts - these groups were the hotbed of knowledge and the Society of the Rose Cross was created to develop the mystery wisdom traditions of the classical world..

‘Drama is Poetry in motion, and it is such Poetry that builds the Temple or Pyramid of Science – a science that is knowledge of the Wisdom, Word, Will, Law or Commandment1 that creates, sustains and transforms the Universe, and which inspires the Poetry (and each of us).. https://www.fbrt.org.uk/

The Publication ‘Cryptomenytices et Cryptographia’ – was published as a source of cypher and imagery that encapsulated the ancient wisdom. These were used in the war against the French, then promoted.through the works of Shakespeare.

As part of the ‘rebuilding’ of civilisation, tapping the earth energies through drama and poetry, It seems as though these theatres were deliberately built along the ‘Milky Way’ orientation in the British Zodiac. Thus the secrets of the ancient societies like the Cistercians, the secret Elizabethan magi, used ancient wisdom to locate ‘magical theatre’ on an ancient landscape. Thus the roots of the Reformation took root, and an ancient secret knowledge flourished. A ‘dream team’ comes alive.

MEGALITHIC SITES IN THE SIGN OF TAURUS

Vision of a New Age: As builders of a connected planet, in the Aquarian Age now starting, following the Aquarian theme of ‘unity in diversity, we are finding that all countries are now using cryptographic technology.

MICHAEL LINE THROUGH THE PLANET - wherever you are, the planet gets your gifts.

Dragon Lines through Britain, Denmark, Norway, Russia (Moscow), Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, South America (Lake Titicaca), Azores. Our sacred landscape of Michael and Mary lines, connect six or more local landscape zodiacs, including Dartmoor and Exmoor, Cornwall. What we do in pilgrimage has a global impact when it is connected to our love of the land and vision of beauty.

OUR CLASSICAL HERITAGE BUILT MODERN CIVILISATION - WE USE MODELS OF THE UNIVERSE CONSTRUCTED IN the ART, SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHICAL TRADITIONS OF CLASSICAL GREECE

The ancient philosophies – such as Pythagorean Mathematics - of the Mediterranean stemmed from the Megalithic influx from the Western Atlantic seaboard cultures. Adding creative artwork, the impact on the ‘Isles of the Hesperides’ was to cause a creative ferment of archetypal spiritual experimentation.

Wike: Europa on the back of Zeus turned into a bull. A fresco at Pompeii, contemporaneous with Ovid.

In Mathematics, Music and Astronomy, our cultures evolved with speed and impact on the world. Eastern traditions were integrated through the Silk Road and trading exchanges through the Mediterranean. Greek Philosophy, Socrates, Art and architecture blossomed.

Wiki: Greek sculpture sought to represent the permanent reality behind superficial appearances …Many early Christians had a deep respect for Pythagoras…. During the Middle Ages, Pythagoras was revered as the founder of mathematics and music, two of the Seven Liberal Arts … Nicolaus Copernicus cites various Pythagoreans as the most important influences on the development of his heliocentric model of the universe…

Wikipedia

Through the philosophies of the Mediterranean world, our ancestors built a living mythical story upon which we interpret the sacred landscape of Europe.

We now build our own interpretation with maps indicating the sacred sites and cities that carry the ‘chakric energy’ of an archetypal energy system, mirrored from our own ‘eastern’ culture of energy systems of the human body.

A creative chakra, the throat calls up the sound and resonance energy of a creative vision, to be directed into ‘love in action’ in the physical world. Through pilgrimage we enact this mystery tradition of ‘collective transformation’ in a world of beauty, truth and goodness.

By honouring our own local ‘spirit of place’ in the landscape, through pilgrimage and artistic interpretation of ancient ‘mandala’ and chanting, using the resonance of the voice and multicultural instruments like singing bowls, the energy of the land becomes our companion, and inspiration from deep withing our physical form. This co-creativity is our heritage, left to us from the ancestrial ‘dream team’ of living cultural memories.

Peter Dawkins’ energetic system of Europe. The Throat Chakra of the world is symbolised in the mythology of Zeus in the form of a bull; ‘Taurus’ and the Europa myth of the bull becoming the lover of the goddess Europa. She is abducted on the back of the Bull/Zeus.

On the ‘alta major’ of the bull is our Grail Temple’, bringing inspiration from the spiritual realms, in terms of world evolution.

‘One of the keys to the recognition and the naming of Europe is that, astrologically, Taurus, the Bull, is said to rule the throat chakra, whilst Europa signifies the Pleiades that 'sit' on the Bull's neck and symbolise the alta-major chakra or 'mouth of God'. It is via the alta-major chakra that we and the world are inspired by the Holy Spirit, the Breath of God that bears the Word. It is by means of the throat that the Word is sounded to create all things new.’ https://www.peterdawkins.com/landscape-temple-of-europe.’

THE GEMINI/TAURUS CUSP, becomes the evolutionary passage of energy – the Milky Way – a sacred path of transformation in the landscape of the world: passing from South Africa, through the Rift Valley, Egypt, and through Ukraine into Russia. Is it no wonder there is friction along this line, as Humanity learns of its innate potential for collective co-ordination. The miracle story of the ‘White Lions’ of Timbavati gives us a metaphor. The Lions symbolise profound transformation for Humanity.

We are the white lion-hearted new humanity, distilling the individual unique sovereignty we all share, as we unite with ‘unity in diversity’ in the new Age.

No matter who we are, no matter
in which part of the world we dwell, we are one.
We are one with each other. We are one with the Earth.
We are one with the moon, the sun, and the stars.
--Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa, Zulu Lion Shaman

The world light body is a stage on which we play our part in generating more love-light.
