The Cornwall Connection 1994
I was 24, living in Plymouth and had been stuggling with anxiety. I needed to escape the city, so one weekend I chucked my ancient 2 man ridge tent into my car, drove to Cornwall to camp. It was the middle of November.
In the summer, I had been there staying at friends of a friend in Penzance, so I decided to visit them. They weren't there but I knew where one of their best friends lived, so I called at his house to find out if they might be around that weekend. They weren't, but he invited me for a cuppa and then to the pub. Afterwards I drove back to my tent and snuggled under the million blankets I had brought with me and noted that camping in November was actually OK.
I had told him about the anxiety I had been experiencing and he offered to show me a healing place. So the next day he took me to a stone circle, a place called Boscawen Un a few miles outside Penzance.
I remember it feeling really isolated and there was an intense energy there. I was drawn to a squat quartz rock which I had no understanding of at that time. Nothing of note for this blog happened at that time. I misunderstood the energies there to be between me and this guy and I ended up having a very dissatisfactory fling with him over the next few months.
Anyways, back to the story....he asked if I wanted to hang out later that day, but he had band practice first, so I decided to fill the time by driving to Marazion. I parked up in Marzion carpark, which is a blustery, exposed carpark and stood on the beach looking out towards St Michaels Mount at the grey sea and grey sky. It was helluva windy, as they say in the South West.
As I was standing there, occasionally with my eyes closed, I began to get imagery into my minds eye and concepts, which were hard to grasp, but there were two things that I managed to hold onto consciously. Firstly, every single thing, is connected to every single other thing. Secondly a pattern. It was kind of like triangles where the points connected to other triangles, but that wasn't the entirety of it, but was all I could draw in two dimensions.
All is meant to be ..Love hearing your growth ...its really kicked in recently eh !. X x x Stu
