As December 2017 article
I prepared the Report of the Open Group of Geomancy and their excursion to the Binn Valley on October 20 and 21. As already mentioned on that occasion, this is a group of volunteers who meet periodically to make excursions with the sole intent of helping Mother Earth to
heal herself. The evil that the human being has perpetrated against the planet
Earth especially in recent decades is indescribable and in many cases, it seems that
we have reached a point of no return.
The Earth, however, if we help her, has the ability to recover. While each of us can participate in this process through personal choices related to lifestyles, products to buy and to use or not, and respect for the environment, our group of friends do it by operating on specific energy flows that each environment and every area of the Earth emanate.
The discourse related to energy forces and flows is a feature that unites, in fact, albeit in a different way, all the holistic methods including Homeopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Chakras and the Theory of Yin and Yang, the Kundalini Energy, Feng Shui, and Geomancy. And these are just some examples that can help us to have a better idea of how and to which areas - environment and health in the first place - the concept of energy and energy flows can be applied.
Geomancy specifically, as understood and applied by the friends of this wonderful and very active group, aims, through periodic excursions, at ensuring that all the participants are attuned to the energies of the specific places they are visiting, and through a process of total osmosis with Nature, they absorb or at least identify the type of energies present in those areas, and, by means of rituals based on intentions and specific visualizations, purify the negative ones, also removing the stagnant ones in such a way as to allow the Cosmic Energy Chi/Qi/Prana/Cosmic Breath of the Universe to resume flowing smoothly, dynamically and positively in harmony with its very nature and purpose.
That being said, I wish you all to enjoy the reading of this wonderful adventure along with all of us.
Some two hours later we reach the alp and here the snow shows us our limits: here it reaches our waist
level. From here reaching the border of Bochetta of Albano and from there the summit of Bochetta of
Albano and from there the summit of Mottone of Giumello (m.2027 above sea level) is simply
impossible. Bottom line: plan change.
We need to find a suitable place to anchor the energy center of the heart center.
A look around quickly shows that the alp is not suitable. While climbing, Christoph sees a snow-free
field with large trees just before the Alp and makes the suggestion to follow that path. But before we
leave, let's have a picnic break.
Ritual
Some 3 minutes below the Alp we find the place we have been looking for: four
trees form a unit and next to it are two more trees. We are all drawn to the four
trees where we feel we are, indeed, in the right place.
As always, valuable ideas flow in from all participants, so that at the end a
powerful ritual takes place. This time we notice a special point between the
trees, it is like the heart center of a group of trees. At this point we arrange all
utensils: three stones from the Älggi alp, incense sticks, holy wood, beautiful
moss lichen and pine cones collected along the way and of course the potentized
healing water from the Älggi alp itself. We are already at the D28 potency.
Andrea has filled a small and a large bottle with the D28 solution. To address
multiple levels of consciousness, she has poured the unused portions of D1-D27
into a small and a large bottle. The small bottles are buried and the contents of the
big bottles are distributed at the anchor point of the energy line.
As a reminder to anyone who does not know anything or who is reading a report
for the first time: Daniel Kormann grinded a stone from the Älggi alp, which he
had found together with Andrea under the fir trees just below the symbolic center
of gravity. Andrea added to the powder 40% of alcohol and exposed it to the sun.
This first mixture got energized then. This means: 1 part of stone mixture and 9
parts of 25% alcohol are poured into a bottle and shaken well. Afterwards, the
bottle is hit 28 times with the hand or against a cushion. That provides D1. Then
1 part of D1 and 9 parts of 25% alcohol are mixed, shaken and hit again. That
provides D2. Andrea continued until she obtained D28 potency.
I would like to explain briefly why there are three stones this time. The stones
from the Älggi alp are in my garden, next to the Yin-Yang sign. Every time we
need to select two stones for the next geomancy meeting, I let myself guide which
stones are the right ones by using the pendulum. This time it clearly showed me two
stones as well as a heart shaped third one. There is a lot of hatred towards Europe
from the south-east, so that the heart shaped stone is still very much needed here.
The heart shaped stone is placed in the southeast direction.
Today we are nine people, five women and four men. We form a circle around the
heart center and each of us turns in one direction, alternating men and women so
that it feels right for everyone. Four women are each in the main sky, a woman is
placed in the middle.
Further information
Daniel shares with us the information about which chakra is assigned to which
direction:
• Root Chakra - Southeast
• Sacral Chakra - South
• Solar plexus chakra - west
• Front Heart Chakra - Northeast
• Rear Heart Chakra - Southwest
• Throat Chakra - north
• Head Chakra - East
• Crown Chakra - Northwest
Excursion to Carena to the former hammer mill
After a homy breakfast in the simple but lovingly decorated Osteria in Vellano
we drive to Carena. Andrea and Julian, who yesterday pursued their own
program, are also part of the game today.
In Carena are the ruins of a former smithy. Here in the second half of the
fifteenth century and in the period between 1700 and 1800 iron was mined
and processed. In addition to the blast furnace and the hammer mill, the plant
included lodgings, coal warehouses, forge ovens and ore processing facilities.
The hammer mill is part of the themed route "Via del Ferro" (
Michael
The work to be done here could only be managed jointly. Everyone was
dependent on each other. However, even when one is dependent on each
other, it is important that personal freedom is upheld.
Sonja
I felt a light and good energy and a lot of gratitude for what we were doing.
Daniel
Here, iron was mined, which was subsequently exported, thus linking the
small valley with the world. Iron as a connection to the outside. Iron is also
ambiguous for me: on the one hand, it was used for innovations, on the other
hand for swords. We are here in the southeast, the root chakra.
Here we can dock particularly well with the energy and pass on this power
as well.
Nathalie
I feel how hard work was done here, away from everything. In this place,
I am particularly aware that we are here only thanks to our ancestors.
That we only have everything thanks to our ancestors. I feel a great
gratitude to all that has been done before us.
Nadine
A powerful, very crooked tree at the end of the site caught my attention.
It looked like a transition. I really sat down there. I felt very secure and
could still see everything.
Christoph
Although it is a ruin, the ruin still lives on. On another level, as a story,
as a reminder of our ancestors and of their achievements. Thus, the ruin
still fulfills an important function and thus continues to be allowed to do so.
Andrea
I got into the energy of rushing, exploiting, ever higher performance,
more and more production pressure. It is important that we respect all
destinies. Because it is only thanks to the achievements of all fates that
we are today where we are.
Sandy
I felt the connection of the Älggi alp in this valley and how the river
carries this energy through the Ticino. This is especially important as the
inhabitants of Ticino always feel a bit disconnected from Switzerland.
Thanks to this project, we are rooting with the earth, with Switzerland in
a very special way. The connection from the heart of Switzerland to the
national borders is getting stronger every time. If we have moved the
energy lines in all eight directions to the border, it is crucial that we go
back to the Älggi alp and perform there the final ritual of this project.
So we go back to the origin and close the energy cycle.
