What is Geomancy?
Every culture has ancient geomantic traditions
– the Chinese tradition is feng-shui.
Like feng-shui, geomancy can tell you what's
wrong with the energies in your home or workplace,
and how to correct them. In addition, Western
geomancy utilises dowsing and earth acupuncture
techniques to deal with geopathic stress
and balance the subtle earth energies. Many
of our practitioners also use scientific instrumentation
to assess electromagnetic and microwave pollution
(or technopathic
stress) - an increasing problem
for many people in our technologically advanced
society.
Geomancy
is also interested in the location and orientation
of new spaces, particularly ones that enhance
our connection to Spirit. If you want to know
where the power centre is in your garden so
you can build a temple, or if you want to know
the best place for an altar in your living room;
a geomancer can tell you.
Whether
your sacred space is a single crystal, a personal
altar, a standing stone, medicine wheel, labyrinth,
stone circle or something larger; geomancy can
help you design, locate, align and activate
the space so that it connects with and enhances
the natural energies of the earth.

A
geomancer is like a gatekeeper who can create
portals 'between the worlds'. If you want to
connect with the sacred, a geomancer can help
you build that gate.
In
a secular context, geomancy offers space-clearing
services for atmospheric realignment. Underground
water and earth energies have been associated
with geopathic stress, ‘sick building syndrome’,
and even psycho-spiritual disturbances such
as ghosts, poltergeists and so on.
In
our modern society it is increasingly common
for houses and other buildings to be sited over
such geopathic stress zones.
Some
people are sensitive to these energies, and
over a period of prolonged exposure their immune
system can become suppressed, leading to disturbed
sleep, chronic fatigue or more serious illness.
See our section on Secular
Space for more details.
Geomancers
are trained to detect and manipulate these
energies to minimise their detrimental effects
and restore balance to the area.
The
space-clearing process also releases and transmutes
the stagnant energies in a space and allows
us to replace them with supportive and positive
energies in our homes and offices. It can
often be a liberating and transformative experience
for the inhabitants.
As
continuing psychic hygiene and maintenance of
a space is paramount in geomantic awareness,
space-clearing is fundamental to both sacred
and secular geomantic practice.
