The Transmission of Venus

​

Measuring a sun-spot with a difference

 

Yesterday was an historic day.  Yesterday hosted the last Transit of Venus across the solar disc, as seen from planet earth, until 2117.  Being obliged to observe it at an early dawn on a Dartmoor morning meant, needless to say, that there was nothing to see.  However, for the dowser, the visible light spectrum is only one part of the process.  As an eclipse-chaser, I knew there might be the possibility that something might happen at some of those other energy wavelengths, not obscured by mist and murk.

 

Having just made a timely return from visiting Billy Gawn in Northern Ireland, I was reminded of the work he has undertaken on ‘energy’ grids of various sorts - around objects of all shapes and sizes, from watering cans and lumps of concrete to mountains and, well, planets.  During a session, where we took some video footage of Billy working in his unique deviceless style, he ran through the various grids we can dowse on the surface of the earth that relate to the celestial bodies - Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturn and Jupiter.  Billy’s visual dowsing technique makes it all look so matter-of-fact, so it seemed appropriate to have a look at some of these grids in the run up to the long awaited Transit.

 

I was a little surprised to find several in the vicinity of our house, including a solar line running through the lounge and kitchen and a venusian grid segment about 660cm wide, taking in the hall, the front bedroom and part of the lounge too.   The next realisation was that these are not ‘earth energy’ lines at all.  They are emanations of some sort from the star and the planet - and, as Billy is keen to point out, they are not even ‘energy’, but something more like Cosmic Gravity Grids.  

 

The Transit itself produced little obvious change to either line, although the solar strand did appear to reduce by about two centimetres (of a width of about 5 metres).  It’s what you might expect when a tiny speck of a planet obscures the constant tsunami of emissions right across the spectrum for a short time - and I was a lttle concerned that I was only finding what seemed the most likely outcome.  

 

The Venus line itself was more of an enigma.  When I measured and marked it out in the hall before the Transit, I soon became aware that it was moving, albeit quite slowly, but in real time.  Not only was it shifting sideways eastward, but the angle at which it was striking the house was also tilting.  I suddenly realised that, unlike earth energies - which, for all their strangeness and incongruities, are at least anchored somewhere in the earth - this was a line coming from one moving object and being projected onto another one that was not only moving past it, but spinning at the same time.   In hindsight, it is surprising that the grid is as stable as it seems.  However, the solar system has evolved over aeons of time and presumably a degree of inter-stability between its component parts has developed, which holds the whole shooting-match together.

 

To get a grip on what I could expect during the Transit, I dowsed for the maximum diurnal expansion and contraction of the Venus line.  The responses were that it would be between 342cm and 318cm wide (for the half of the line that I could measure practically indoors), so my initial reading of 330cm was well within these parameters.    During the Transit, the line did expand, but did not, as far as I could tell, exceed the maxima.  So, the crude conclusion I would have to draw would be that the Transit did not have a significant effect on the gravity grid - at least to the extent that it could be measured on the Earth’s surface.  Going back to the grid today, it seems to have exhibited a similar considered drift, so it would appear that any turbulence during the Transit may have been lost in the background noise.

 

One aspect that I had not necessarily anticipated was that when I stand on any of the cosmic grid lines that I can detect in the house (those emanating from the Sun, Moon, Earth and Venus), all of them give a quite definite positive response - they are all beneficial to a human standing on them.  There is clearly a lot more work to do to understand how, and why, that should be the case - and whether it is always beneficial to stand there.  However, it does imply that the sense of benevolence that permeates the earth when we are not actively disturbing it isn’t just down to being at one with our own planet, but also to being aware of the uplifting input of other cosmic bodies.

 

One last area for consideration is the relationship of practical astronomy to esoteric astrology.  In recent centuries, the latter has become the province of the disrespected and the charlatan.  Yet, until quite recently, astronomy and astrology were two notes in the same chord.  John Dee, the first modern man to write about earth energy lines in a manner that we can recognise today, was actually Court Astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I, with the embryonic field of astronomy just one arrow in his quiver.

 

Populist astrology probably is just part of the flotsam of today’s pulp entertainment.  Yet, as with so many remaindered aspects of the unseen world, there seems to be at least a little fire smouldering behind the smoke.  If a baby coming into the world can sense the lattice mesh of the cosmic gravity grids that I can pick up with a piece of bent wire, then would that indeed have an influence on the way they might respond to the world that they find themselves thrust into in those first formative moments? 

 

What started out yesterday as just the routine measurement of an energy line has opened a whole raft of new areas of research.  If reality really is this complicated, is it perhaps not too surprising that we have shoved a lot of it in to the broom cupboard of fairy tales and half-forgotten folk memories?
