Re: The Sun and the Serpent
Jan 16, 2017, 12:33
Don't judge me but I rather liked 'the sun and the serpent' when I read it. It does feeds into that very English romantic glastonbury thing but also a 90s environmental gaia-ish view of the landscape, that it's maybe got some ability to fight back against all the crap we humans dish out. It's also nice because if you know somewhere on the line near to you, it makes you want to visit other places along it. Which can't be bad for swelling the ranks of tmaists.

But on the other hand it is about ley lines.

Ah this Christmas we went to a party and it was 'secret santa' time. I got a bottle of booze. But my poor OH, someone had deliberately got him a pair of dowsing rods from Avebury (ie bent copper pipes). He looked very disappointed but tried to hide it. Most people in the room seemed to have some innate belief they would work, curiously. But they were overwhelmingly artists and musicians, maybe they'd never demanded a scientific explanation of why they would or wouldn't work.

I don't live far from the purported line. Perhaps I should go out and take the copper pipes.
