29 October, In the morning I shared a cab to Drogheda with an American man. As I had been to Newgrange the day before. There was some sort of big marathon in Dublin on this day. Many people wanted to get on the bus. He squished in because he had to get to the airport.  I took a later bus. I really didn’t want to push in. The journey ended up taking a long time. But I got to Dublin just in time, as I was hosting a group! Just in time to eat something, sit down and land.

Lemuria Rising – Dublin

And then found my way with my bag to Dublin Bikram Yoga Studios. The Lemuria Rising group was starting at 2pm, and I got to the venue just after 1.30. So it was a close call, and Fiona from the studio quickly showed me around.  The group was from 2-5 pm, and Dublin turned up and fully represented! There were fifteen people there, as the circle kept expanding.  On the bus I had realised what this group was to be. I was to bring through the Light Language for all of the main chakra’s. This was the first time I had done this in one group.

Caroline Flavin was the guest for the group. She brought her Sound bowls, and took us all on a sound journey.  This was also the first time I had met Caroline, as we had been in correspondence through a mutual friend. We worked with a few toning exercises at the end of the group. We also did a group meditation for the earth.  The group was slightly mickey mouse at the beginning. and people must have wondered. As I didn’t even have a candle to put in the middle of the room.  And as the traffic was so thick because of the marathon, Caroline a few others were late.  But there was such positive feedback at the end from many people. They said I should come back to Ireland again.

Afterwards I went out to dinner with Caroline and a few others.  Caroline then gave me a lift, as she was heading in the direction of Stillorgan. I was to be staying there with family friends, Tony and Margaret.

Enniskerry

Upon further conversing with Tony, I mentioned the group. It turns out Tony owns books about Lemuria. Lo and behold, he is interested in this subject.  He has many books about Spirituality, and we had lots to talk about.  I did a Sound Healing for them. Margaret said she slept really well after that. She had trouble sleeping at the time. They took me one day to the Glencree Centre for Peace and Reconciliation, in Enniskerry, with a waterfall walk.

One day I went into the hustle and bustle of Dublin City. I visited the Book of Kells exhibition. I also went to the Trinity Library at Trinity College. The Book of Kells, is a famous medieval manuscript from the 9th century. This book is a richly decorated copy of the four Gospels of the life of Jesus.

And then went to visit Caroline at Dervish, the crystal and holistic shop she part ran. We had lunch together.  It was Halloween, so we went to a shop to find something for her nephews. She ended up buying a spider head dress for herself. In all her fun, she walked down the street wearing it.   Another time I met with Bridie. She had attended groups in Glastonbury and Dublin. She was the bridge who connected me with Caroline.

Glendalough

The last day in Ireland was sunny. Tony brought me along with two of his granddaughters to Glendalough. The name means valley of the two lakes. This is a magic spot. It was all in autumnal, with a tranquil lake high up in the Wicklow Mountains. It is over an hour’s drive south of Dublin.  Glendalough, is a glacial valley renowned for its early medieval monastic settlement founded in the 6th century by St Kevin.

The last night, I stayed closer in town for one night. I stayed at Carolin’s house on Church St East, East Wall. I had met her at the group. She is German, and was working for Google.

2nd November, up early to get to the airport, I flew to Bristol (Ryanair,12.30).
