What is the concept that attracts the? Why that they visit places like Glastonbury, Stonehenge, 3 Egypt, pyramids of Egypt sphinx? Is - this hope? They know something that others ignore? What they "see" something that others can't see?
One thing I realized is that I, too, asked many questions.Donc I thought that maybe all these people go to these places, in addition to plain tourist interest) because they believe that issues can get answers or they feel that something is only in these areas.
Indeed all these sites are connected with various movements, religious or philosophical) return of thousands of years. Many modern and new age or Gnostic movements are strongly linked to these sites.
So, yet again, I've done this recherche.Regardez what I trouvé.Ces articles will be very informative, so I decided to publish in place Saint series. I'll start to Glastonbury.

Joseph is supposed to arrived at Glastonbury on levels of Somerset inondées.Le landing boat it blocked his staff into the ground, which flourished miraculously Glastonbury Thorn (or Saint Thorn). This is the explanation behind the existence of a hybrid Hawthorn tree that grows in a couple of miles of Glastonbury. This Hawthorn flowers twice annually, once in the spring and once again in time for Christmas (depending on the weather). Each year a sprig of spine is cut off by the local anglican priest and elder of the St Johns school children, then sent to the Queen to feature on his Christmas plateau.
Today, various strains of mysticism and Paganism coexist with its Christian heritage enthusiasts.
