Ley Lines, Dragon Lines, Geopathic Stress and More – A Fibro Fighter’s Perspective

Hey Fibro Fighters! Jane here, and today we’re diving deep into the fascinating world of Earth energies. As someone living with fibromyalgia, I’m acutely aware of how our environment can impact our wellbeing. Understanding these subtle energies has become an integral part of my holistic approach to managing my symptoms and finding balance.
Have you ever walked into a place and just felt it? A shift in the atmosphere, a sense of calm, or perhaps a feeling of unease that you can’t quite put your finger on? I know I have, especially on those days when the fibro fog has rolled in. These sensations can often be linked to the Earth’s energy fields and exploring them has been a profound realisation for me.
Ley Lines - The Ancient Pathways, Modern Mysteries (and Alfred Watkins!)
Let’s start with ley lines. This term was popularised by an amateur archaeologist named Alfred Watkins from Herefordshire back in the early 20th century. He was studying old maps of the English countryside and noticed something remarkable: ancient sites like Stonehenge, Avebury, old churches, and standing stones seemed to line up in straight lines across the landscape. He proposed that these lines, which he called "leys," were ancient trackways or pathways used for navigation and trade. However, many now believe they represent something more: pathways of subtle energy, flowing through the Earth like acupuncture meridians in the human body. It’s as if our ancestors had an innate understanding of these energies, using them for sacred ceremonies and perhaps even healing.
These alignments aren't just random; they often connect significant places. What's even more fascinating is that these straight ley lines frequently have dragon or serpent energy lines interwoven along their routes, connecting significant points of interest and sacred sites as they weave across the landscape. This intertwining creates a powerful energetic network.
Two particularly notable examples, researched extensively by Paul Broadhurst and Hamish Miller, are the Michael Line and the Apollo/St. Michael Axis. Their work is documented in their insightful books, The Sun and the Serpent and The Dance of the Dragon, which are excellent resources for anyone interested in exploring these concepts further.
It's crucial to understand that while both relate to St. Michael energy, they are distinct
• The Michael Line is a straight ley line that enters Cornwall at Carn Les Boel and travels across the country to Hopton in Norfolk, connecting numerous sites dedicated to St. Michael. The associated dragon or serpent energy currents are often referred to as the Mary and Michael currents, reflecting the connection between St. Michael and Mary Magdalene at sites like Glastonbury Tor.
• The Apollo/St. Michael Axis is a direct ley alignment connecting sites associated with both Apollo and St. Michael. This axis represents a powerful energetic current associated with solar energy and light. The related dragon or serpent energy currents associated with this axis are often referred to as the Apollo and Athena currents, representing the balance of masculine (Apollo) and feminine (Athena) energies, wisdom, and divine inspiration. This axis also extends into mainland Europe, linking these energies to ancient deities and their associated qualities, highlighting the vastness of these energetic networks.
Now, let’s talk about St. Michael’s Mount, which is an incredibly important energetic node point within this wider network. A node point is like an energetic hub, where multiple ley lines and dragon currents converge and interact, creating a concentrated area of energy. Because of its strategic location and long history as a sacred site, St. Michael’s Mount acts as a powerful focal point, connecting the Michael Line, the Apollo/St. Michael Axis, and their associated Michael, Mary, Apollo, and Athena energetic currents. It’s like a major intersection on the Earth’s energy grid. A wonderful place to visit if you get the opportunity. This reinforces the idea that we’re all part of a larger interconnected web of energy, deeply connected to the Earth beneath our feet.
Dragon Lines - Unleashing the Earth’s Powerhouse (Distinct from Energy Lines!)
Now, let’s talk about dragon lines – and it’s important to distinguish these from general “energy lines.” Dragon lines are not the straight lines of leys. They are described as broad, undulating bands of energy, almost like rivers of energy flowing through the landscape. Think of them as the Earth's major arteries of energy. They have different layers or bands, each with its own unique quality, like a rainbow of energy and direction of flow. Some bands are considered more “masculine” (yang), associated with active, dynamic energy, while others are more “feminine” (yin), representing receptive, nurturing energy. Some people even perceive these bands as having different colours, each associated with specific qualities and energies. As someone living with fibro, I’m particularly sensitive to energy, and I can sometimes feel these lines as a subtle shift in the atmosphere, a tingling in my hands, a sense of expansion or a rather loud burp! It’s a powerful reminder that the Earth is a living, breathing entity, pulsating with energy.
And sometimes, these dragon lines manifest in truly remarkable ways. I recently had the incredible experience of leading a group of dowsers at Kent's Cavern. These caves are not only geologically fascinating, with stunning rock formations, but they also hold a palpable sense of ancient energy. What’s particularly fascinating is that the dragon lines within the cavern seem to flow through actual dragon-shaped rock formations. It was an amazing experience to dowse these energies and feel how they interacted with the unique geology of the cave. It really highlighted that while underground water lines certainly produce energy, there are so many other energetic phenomena to discover within the Earth. It reinforced for me that dragon lines are not just abstract concepts but powerful forces present in the landscape.
Energy Lines - Tuning In to the Earth’s Vibrations (A Broader Term)
The term “energy lines” is a broader way of describing any subtle energetic pathway in the Earth, encompassing both the straight lines of leys and the dragon currents (as I define them), as well as other energetic pathways, including those influenced by geological formations like we experienced at Kent's Cavern. As a dowser, I use tools like pendulums and dowsing rods to detect and map these lines and get a sense of the energetic quality of a space. It’s like tuning a radio to find the right frequency. This practice is also known as radiesthesia, which involves sensing and interpreting these energies.
It's also important to acknowledge the role of water in Earth energies. Water itself is a conductor of energy and can create its own energetic field. Underground water veins, for example, can contribute to geopathic stress. For those of us with fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions, this is especially relevant. Our bodies are already dealing with heightened sensitivity, and exposure to these energetic disturbances from water can sometimes exacerbate symptoms like pain, inflammation, and fatigue. It’s another example of how our environment can directly impact our wellbeing. Understanding these energy lines, including those related to water, can be incredibly valuable in creating supportive environments for us Fibro Fighters.
Geopathic Stress: When Earth Energies Feel Off-Key
And then there’s geopathic stress. This is where the Earth’s natural energies become disturbed, often by things like underground water veins, geological fault lines, or certain mineral deposits. Underground water, in particular, is a major contributor to geopathic stress. As water flows underground, it creates friction with the surrounding rock, generating an electromagnetic field. This field, along with other energetic disturbances from the water flow itself, can create what are considered detrimental lines of energy. These disturbances can create a distorted energy field that some believe can negatively impact human health.
For those of us with fibromyalgia, whose nervous systems are already on high alert, geopathic stress can exacerbate symptoms like pain, fatigue, brain fog, and sleep disturbances. It’s like adding extra static to an already overloaded system, making it even harder to find balance. This is a controversial topic within the scientific community, but many people, including myself, find that addressing geopathic stress can make a noticeable difference in their wellbeing.
How This All Relates to My Fibro and My Practice (and the Burping and Yawning!)
For me, understanding these Earth energies isn’t just an abstract concept – it’s a practical tool in my Fibro-fighting toolkit. And on a personal note, when I’m working with energy, especially clearing blockages or working with powerful energies like dragon lines, my body often responds with physical releases such as burping (or even yawning!). It’s totally normal, and if it happens to you, don’t worry!
• Dowsing for Detection: I use dowsing to identify areas of geopathic stress in my home, garden, and other places I spend time. This helps me create a more supportive and healing environment for my body. I also use it to locate energy lines and understand their flow, recognising how they intertwine.
• Energy Healing for Balance: I incorporate energy healing techniques to help balance my own energy field and mitigate the effects of geopathic stress. I also use these techniques in my practice to support other Fibro Fighters.
• Working with Dragon Lines: I’ve learned to connect with the positive energies of dragon lines, using them to enhance my own wellbeing and in my healing work. I find particular benefit in locating a healing spot, often near a standing stone or directly on a ley or dragon line, and simply placing myself in that space, whether sitting or lying down, to absorb the energies.
• Connecting with Nature: Spending time in nature, grounding myself by walking barefoot on the earth, hugging trees, or simply sitting quietly in a natural setting, has become an essential part of my self-care routine. It helps me reconnect with the Earth’s natural rhythms and restore balance to my energy field.
Practical Tips for You, My Fellow Fibro Fighters
• Pay Attention to Your Body: Notice how you feel in different places. Do you feel more energised or drained in certain areas? This can be a clue to the presence of different energy lines or geopathic stress.
• Ground Yourself Regularly: Make time for activities that connect you with the Earth, like gardening, walking in nature, or simply sitting outside.
