03/11 Total Eclipse of the Moon
​
9th November 2003
If actually seeing anything happen during an eclipse was the only point of the exercise, I would have lost all interest back in ’99. Fortunately, for the dowser, the unobservable parts of the phenomenon are just as interesting.
For reasons best known to the powers of co-incidence, we didn’t get to know about the lunar eclipse of 9/11 until a few hours beforehand. Consequently, we didn’t waste enormous amounts of time, money or effort going to the best theoretical viewpoint, nor did we catch cold. Observable lunar eclipses take place, by definition, during the night and are best seen from windswept hillsides. We experienced this one in our own hallway - with the heating full on!
Those who have read my articles before will know I have a particular niche interest in the effect of eclipses on earth energies. So, as the predicted hour approached, I confirmed the usual characteristics of the energy line that runs across our hall. It is about 2ft. wide, electrically negative, female and (as I sense it) white in colour.
As the start of totality approached, we stood outside for a few minutes and stared disconsolately into the clouds. The moon flickered into view for a second or two and then hid itself under a bushel - so we came in to do some proper eclipse chasing. Just before the appointed time of 01:06, the width of the line started to narrow rapidly, until it was just a narrow strip, barely a couple of fingers width from side to side. The polarity changed to neutral. It was as if all I could measure was the ghost of where it had once been. It had not disappeared totally, however.
One of the big advantages of being at home, rather than say in the Australian desert or some gale-stricken Orcadian island, as on previous occasions, is that you can check other lines that are old friends you know well. Sure enough, they had gone dormant as well. The red, positive, male line in the kitchen was just an empty string too – and even the bright energy spiral under the dining table was reduced to just a simple spectral cross.
In times gone by, more simple and more sensitive people would have been aghast at the loss of their sacred power – and I have to say that even my wife, Ros, felt a bit concerned about the temporary loss of the ghost in the machine. But, as with just about everything relating to dowsing, things are not always what they seem.
One of the core principles of all energy work is that nothing disappears. It moves about and seeks a rebalance elsewhere. In the case of eclipses, I feel the apparent collapse of the whole energy grid is masked by the usual energy patterns morphing into other forms.
The energy lines in our house usually emit a dowsable field at around 7 - 8 hz (no, I don’t really know what a hz is, but it seems to be 7 somethings – Ros thinks I should call them Twinns!). During totality, the 7 – 8 hz grid certainly closes down, but I’ve found that if my dowsing questions relate to earth energy as a whole, as opposed to energy at that specific wavelength of 7 – 8 hz, then a ‘new’ grid seems to emerge in the 10 – 12 hz range.
Ros had a picture of the 7hz female energy being sucked down into a v-shaped trough as totality approached.
I had the feeling that the colour disappeared too, but I wouldn’t swear to it.
Even I was pleased to feel the comfortable normality restored. Although, it occurred to me that during the eclipse, our house was no worse off than any one else’s, which had no earth energy running through it. A reason to be cheerful?
The end of totality, around 01:30, showed the inverse of the previous pattern, with the energy powering up, like the restarting of a generator.
It was interesting to confirm that, just as at solar eclipses, the lack of visibility made no apparent impact on the dowsable energies.
Total eclipses dowsed in this house – 2.
Minutes of observed totality – 0.
Importance in understanding the world around us – incalculable.
