Description

ad

A shop selling books, clothes, jewellery, hats, dowsing rods, fossils, minerals and books ranging from the archeological to teh arcane. Set in the heart of the Avebury stone circle we provide tourist information guests and tourists. Our shop has a wide choice of goods on offer, using fair trade or local suppliers wherever possible. Items range from gold, silver and pewter jewellery, woollens, tee shirts, hats, dowsing rods, minerals and fossils to books on a variety of subjects from the archaeological to the arcane.

We are also used as a base by local people who run tours in the area. Oxford educated historian Dave Chivers offers a walking tour of the stones and author Maria Wheatley runs dowsing tours and courses exploring energies in the area.

Avebury itself now contains less than 100 inhabitants and is set in the most sparsely populated County in England. Around 5,000 years ago it must have been one of the most densely settled areas, on the evidence of the scale of the monuments still to be seen today.

Event: Sunday 21st January Join shamanic practitioner Phil Rowe for a drum birthing workshop. Shamanic drum birthing within the majestic and neolthic land of Avebury in Wiltshire. We will birth our drums in beautiful crafted rooms of the Henge Shop which is nestled amongst the powerful stone circle itself. The birthing of drums on this day holds a space for only a small group of 5 making it very, unique, personal and powerful. You will be guided through an ancient ceremonal journey passed on down from our ancestors. In the unfolding journey you will hopefully come to meet and greet the spirit of your drum, an amazing friend for life. Your drum will be a loving shamanic medicine tool to use for journeying, healing and what ever else your drum calls to be used for. A lifelong friend and possible gift to future generations as drum becomes one with you and your ancestors. Cost: £160 per person Spaces are limited so please be sure to book in advance and for more information click on the event link below :) https://www.facebook.com/events/136630383720077/

These are pictures of "immediate" beauty, pretty things that are under our nose but we rarely have time enough to contemplate. They nevertheless contribute to the overall magic of a place, especially in winter
