Svaty Kopec Explored
I have blogged a few times about Svaty Kopeček or Holy Hill in Mikulov, and included it in my books (Chasing the Shaman). The first trip I took there I found an energy vortex of tremendous power and also discovered that I was not the only one who had found it! I later revisited itContinue reading “Svaty Kopec Explored”
The Mikulčice Mystery
I spent another half day at Mikulčice this last weekend hoping to continue mapping the energy lines I had discovered last time. I remain puzzled as to why a settlement of 2,000 people, no matter how important it may have been in the Great Moravian Princedom, had 12 churches? Why 12? The number of apostlesContinue reading “The Mikulčice Mystery”
Mikulčice and Earth Energies
After visiting the magical forest around Pohansko – complete with Ents! we went on to another Slavic settlement site close by. In the 9th century, the early mediaeval hillfort Valy near Mikulčice, was one of the most important Great Moravian centers in the region. Unfortunately, it is not known what the settlement’s name was orContinue reading “Mikulčice and Earth Energies”
The Slavic Settlement of Pohansko
Last weekend, I visited two more sites where Slavs are known to have settled in the 700-1200 timeframe. The first was Pohansko south of Braclav. To visit the site, you need to park up and walk through a remarkable forest that is full of large ancient trees – often dead – surrounded by vibrant livingContinue reading “The Slavic Settlement of Pohansko”
What is Double Faith?
Very important concept…
The Mysterious Řeznovice Church of Sts. Peter and Paul
This weekend, I was able to visit several sites around Brno. The first was the church of St. Peter and St. Paul in Řeznovice that I had noticed passing by on a recce trip to the Templstejn area in the Jihlava valley south of Brno. I stopped at the church because it simply doesn’t look like aContinue reading “The Mysterious Řeznovice Church of Sts. Peter and Paul”
Rajhrad
Rajhrad is quite well known in Brno as it lies just to the south of the city and it has a very nice old monastery that was neglected by the communists (used as a weapons warehouse) and is now slowly being restored. Part of the monastery is now used exactly as it was intended –Continue reading “Rajhrad”
Searching for Veligrad – Video
I also made a video regarding last weekend’s trip to the Morava valley in search of Veligrad. It is accessible below.
Veligrad?
This last Sunday, I went off to the Morava valley in search of Veligrad – the old capital of the Slavic princedom of Great Moravia that appears to have existed between 800-1000 or thereabouts. The name is probably derived from the words Big or Great (Velky) and Castle (Hrad) and descriptions of the place –Continue reading “Veligrad?”
