I lived in Glasto for a couple of years when I was a kid. What is now the 'White Well' was a cafe called the Well House which was run by my mum. I spent many hours there after school among the dampness. I went back last year and the familiar damp smell has been replaced by incense. Strange that my late mum's cafe is now a site of pilgrimage
Don’t normally put comment on UA-cam but thumbs up to your mum, I remember well the cafe you speak of with the water running through it back in the day.
I must have met you and your mum because I've been in that cafe when I used to camp at the campsite on the lane that isn't there now, I do remember the spring water flowing under the floor, nice cuppa and flapjack,
My friends elderly mother was tajen to Glastonbury on a sunny Saturday morning. "Oooh look!" she exclaimed gleefully "everyones in fancy dress!" I love that woman. Heart of gold.
I live in New Zealand now but was born in Glastonbury and lived there for the first 7 years of my life. I can’t believe I didn’t know how special my hometown really was. I’m very grateful of being brought up in such an interesting town.
Past Celtic Druid life time remembered. This video triggered something deep inside of me. The sacred places are calling me back. ~ Sending blessings in deep gratitude.
I well remember my first visit to the Tor. My mates and me had been touring Spain on out motorbikes. on the trip back me and another bloke decided to pull off the M5 and visit the Tor. It was a sunny late April morning when we climbed the Tor, at the top there was only 5 people there including us. After a walk around we went to sit on the north westerly slope with the tower behind us. We were just chilling looking out over the seven estuary to the the hills of South Wales. It was then that we could hear loud male voices chanting in Latin, then a young soloist was singing the high ranges parts. This went on for about 10 minutes until my friend went over to the tower and walked through the door opening. It all then stopped dead. There was no speakers in the tower and the other people up there didn't seem to be aware of the music. A magical place indeed!
Avalon is an Anglicisation of the Welsh Ynys Afallach , Isle of Apples , a fruit connected to the Otherworld in British mythology . The whole Tor was surrounded by water at one time , lending it it's other name Ynys Wydryn , Isle of Glass , from the mirror like surface of the water . It is the legendary resting place of King Arthur , who legend says was brought there after being mortally wounded at Camlan.
I believe we should revive the dead Brythonic Languages We can use Welsh to translate Cumbric due to them being the Closest of the Brythonic Languages Its really sad because we actually do not know much about our Pre-roman history even the Welsh due to Christianisation . We have poetry and stories from that time, but they come from Roman historians We know what other peoples like the Vikings and Romans thought of the Isles, but not what the people themselves thought We don't even know who King Arthur is meant to be if he was based on a real figure We know so little about our own Mythology and what we do know comes from mostly outside sources Brythonic mythology could be as big as Norse or Greek mythology
The Angelcynn conquered you by fire and steel and crushed your mythical Arthur (who was probably Roman anyway, if he ever existed). Get over it. Woden is the stronger God and you now live in rocks and heathland. "Welsh" is Englisc for "foreign". Enough said!
I love the whole feel of this video! It has a different vibe. Don't take that the wrong way, I love the normal vibe. Just something different about this one, can't put my finger on it. Either way , another great video Jacob! 😃
My home town Royal Tunbridge Wells has two Chalybeate wells as well as several holy ancient white wells. Showing that these holy sites are all over England -Britain. (The Chalybeate wells are the red springs)
So, I suppose there’s the one at the pantiles? The church there on the roundabout was the first proper building in tunbridge wells, it was made to shelter the people who came to visit the well. Queen Victoria as a child went there, and Christopher wren designed the ceiling inside. Where are the others located?
@@jimjiminy5836 Extra bit of trivia for anyone interested about the church. The Sundial on the church was put in after the clock. Because the clock was not reliable enough.
Everytime i visit Glastonbury or even see St Michael's mount on tv, i feel that a part of my being belongs there, I'm originally from the West country but moved away many years ago, but my heart will always yearn for these beautiful places, which remain timeless and at one with nature.
Mate awesome stuff!!! Im flying out from Ireland to Glastonbury tomorrow for Beltane so your timing couldn't of been better for a little history lesson before I go ^_^ So Slainte
I arrived in Glastonbury today. The town welcomed me with the festival celebrating the Dragon’s Day. Tomorrow, is Beltane… 6:30 am The Chalice Well will start celebrating. This place is so rich and there is very special energy…
What an awesome place and experience! Kubi seems like such a joy to be around. Hopefully as paganism continues to come back there will be more organic meetings like this in America. To come together and celebrate the sun and moon like that would be awesome.
Holy crap. Thank you so much for sharing and thank you kubi so much for sharing! My thoughts on the yew tree stump being tossed into the well: It was common for christians to chop down pagans sacred trees. Maybe the stump was the towns sacred tree that they cut down. They might've tossed the stump in as an offering AND to poison the bastards 🤣
I visited Glastonbury in 1990 and we happened to be there on Halloween. Meditated with my spiritual teacher on the top of the Tor, where you could feel a huge surge of mother goddess energy rising up. I do remember walking up to the Tor and feeling anger that there were so many surburban style homes nearby, felt as if they were violating the sacred space and later had the impression of a bronze age woman living there.
Thank you Kuby and Jacob for this fabulous video; both my husband and I love the Other Glastonbury. Your little doggy is so adorable too Kuby and we both loved your energy 💜.
Love it. I'm just a simple witch with a broom and a pointy hat; not being spiritual at all, but to me Glastonbury is still a very dear and sacred place.
Wow, thanks so much for this video. Glastonbury has been towards the top of my bucket list for many years now. I doubt I'll ever get to go but it was wonderful getting a glimpse of it through your video.
Believe me you're not missing much. I live in that part of the country. Architecturally and historically the whole area is wonderful, but Glastonbury has been taken over by this false mysticism/crystal and wannabe druids. It's so false and embarrassing. The Tor itself is well worth a visit though - providing there's no false Pagan ceremonies going on!
Thank you so much. I live on Hawaii but have been dreaming of Avalon and wondering what the sweet tracks and apple trees look like growing around there. I am so grateful to be able to see Glastonbury. Joseph of Arimathea is listed in my Welsh ancestry as are several of the old dieties in the legends of King Arthur. It is wonderful to see a place that actually honors the pre-Christian dieties.
I’m very fond of Glastonbury and certainly agree that it has a very special atmosphere - so I’m not surprised so many people make a sort of pilgrimage to find whatever they’re looking for. It’s also gloriously eccentric and some aspects are downright hilarious. The White Well for example, is actually a former municipal waterworks! Also mildly annoying is the notion that all things spiritual, occult, folkloric or paranormal are somehow ‘Celtic’.
I’ve been catholic my whole life , I’ve always felt a sort of confusion and distance from God. I should preface this by saying I have a very Norse ethnicity, my ancestors came from all over France, Denmark and Ireland. Now I was going to a sports match and I though, what’s a great way to get pumped, why not listen to some music from my heritage. So I started playing some traditional Norse music and I closed my eyes and within a few minutes I say this campfire and I saw a group of around 10 men and women dancing around the fire to the music and I felt connected to these people. Then I noticed this one man, very large man blonde and stereotypical Viking man. He approached me and stared into my eyes and I felt this powerful feeling of warmth and security and power. Then he was walking me through this dark forest when I knew I needed to open my eyes again and leave he turned around, and looked at me and “said” return to us again soon. Now, I am still very skeptical, but it’s making me question my Catholicism, and the world around me. What an experience.
The devil can appear as an angel of light and deceive you. Christ rose from the dead and defeated the devil, sin, and the pagan world. If you are questioning your Catholic faith maybe it because you have only experienced the modernist version of the faith, which is a mixture of truth and error. It has diluted the faith. The modernist Catholic Church has a new Mass religious liberty, and ecumenism as opposed to tolerance and faithfulness to the one true Church of Christ. Look at the traditional faith, as practiced by the SSPX. The Mass celebrated is ancient and in Latin. There you will discover the true faith. As for the witches and pagans of Glastonbury, they are, tragically, on their way to hell, unless they turn to God and His Christ for salvation. The tower that these hippy reprobates are banging drums in is the place where the last abbot of Glastonbury, Fr. Richard Whiting was hung drawn and quartered for his Catholic faith. It is disgusting! My advice pray to our blessed Mother, and say your rosary every day.
England was formed by pagan Anglo-Saxons. When the Church took over, everyone lost their freedom and liberty. Abrahamic religion was enforced upon the European people and history shows it has been detrimental to society. Break the chains! Be FREE!!!
Please keep your eyes and heart on Jesus. He loves you more than anyone; you know that. Turning away from Him will cause Him great sorrow and cause you to lose your salvation. There is far more strength, peace and grace in just one of our Sacraments than all the pagan and cultural practices rolled up together. Those practices will take you from Him and leave you empty eventually. I pray you will stay on the path to life.
@@lyndavonkanel8603 it’s none of your business what this persons relationship with their god or gods is. One wonders if you’re such a Christian why you’re in the comments section of a video on a pagan site with a pagan viewpoint. If it’s just so you can try to “convert the pagans” please don’t.
It’s one of my dreams to go to Glastonbury someday(from Midwest U.S)! I am just starting my druidic path, it will definitely be a pilgrimage site for me.
When I first started to walk my path, I found myself on a Pilgrimage to Glastonbury. I loved the place, loved the sites, loved the energy and the mix of most people. My Son has recently joined the Pagan Faith and can't wait for his Pilgrimage ❤️
Loved this video. My family all come from Somerset so it was really nice to see somebody take the time to speak about Glastonbury and it’s history and mythology (..and not mention the festival too much 😅). Thanks 😊
Loved watching this! Wonderful to see images from ínside the white spring. Ì bathed and chanted in the white spring while on a retreat in Glastonbury fìve years ago. An incredibly powerful experience.
Thankyou both for making this video I have always wanted to visit Glastonbury Goddess Bridget …..never back down on your beliefs very interesting Great guidance Chalice well White spring Legend of King Arthur Congratulations on your work and following your dreams 🌀🌗🙏🧡
My uncle lives just down the road from Glastonbury and his house overlooks Glastonbury Tor. Love it around there, it definitely has a very unique atmosphere from anywhere else in the UK.
Glastonbury' ace.... What a place... Went there for Anglican pilgrimage last year.... Procession down the highstreet being the highlight.. The bookshop blew me away.... Peace... .
I think what is funny is that most people link Celtic heritage to the UK only. But the Celts lived most of their years in Germany and Austria before they moved north. Before the Celtic traditions, there have been even older ones on the islands, which have been forgotten it seems.
Yes the term "celtic" is much misunderstood and misused. I think in this contect a better description would be 'indigenous British' but i've found people like to distance themselves from the word British these days and 'celtic' sounds more romantic.
@@PadmeP I agree.The British averagely are 70 percent British Indigenous. I feel the connection to the SW of England. I lived in Bath and in Salisbury in the past. This summer I will work in Bath. Been to Glastonbury before. I want to go back again and Avebury.
@@amyw6808 NW European more so in my opinion. Iberians share genetics with NW Europeans. French, Alpine Italy Switzerland Western Austria South Western Germans along with the British isles. Many of the people do look similar too.
That's Germanic ya nut, the Celtic people originate from Spain to France to what is now England, wales, Cornwall's, Scotland and Ireland. You are thinking Germanic like the Saxons and Visigoths, infact the ancient British folk before Rome conquered them naming the place Britannia spoke a Celtic Dialect and even shared similar Gods with those of their cousins the Celts of what is now France and Spain like the Celtic god of thunder Taranis, only the Irish tend to change it up compared to other Celtic speakers.
I'm an atheist who finds myself increasingly drawn to this type of thing. I just can't switch on belief in various gods, my mind won't let me do that but nonetheless here I am. Its a puzzle?
Not necessarily. I was brought up christian but joining the Army gave me the chance to find my own way, and I was drawn to paganism instantly. I explored several traditions and paths, had encounters with several Gods and Goddesses, and yet something always felt... shortsighted about it all. My current understanding is that what people refer to as Gods or Spirits are aspects of Nature that reveal their consciousness only to other consciousness and not as much through physical means like speaking, likely because of existing at a higher consciousness than humans. Those who do so, find that the consciousness of Nature expresses itself in a way that the consciousness of a person can understand and interact with, which is why several cultures all have Goddesses of Beauty, Gods of the Sun, etc. However, I also have experience of a One Creator, in which all things are thoughts in the Mind of the Infinite. So I tend to see Gods and Spirits less as "divine overlords that grant boons in exchange for offerings" and more like people that I can interact with and learn from, all while exploring the Great Mystery together and expanding consciousness in order to perceive more of that Mystery. So long story short, you do not need to bow to Gods to be Pagan. You do not need to believe beyond your perceptions. Expand your perceptions and there is no need for belief.
It’s funny, (I’m in the army too) and I was raised christian, but I always felt connected to nature, particularly when I went fishing of all things, and when someone introduced me to the idea of paganism about two years ago, I started reading literature on the religions and went “OOP THAT EXPLAINS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL!” For me it started with a feeling and eventually I started implementing the ideals and cultural normality’s of my ancestors into my everyday life, slowly but surely I developed into a more tried and true pagan, but this journey is FAR from over, im still learning and grasping for more everyday…in short what I’m tryna say is this takes time, some will get it and some will not, you’ll know
i'm atheist also...i can't believe in gods of any kind...can't bring myself...but i feel the 'spirit' of the natural world...the unconscious bod between me and animals...and certain other humans...it's what i aspire to...tapping into that bond with the natural world...
He spells it Tor not Thor. I stayed at the B & B that he and his wife runs the first time I visited Glastonbury. The book Mists of Avalon by its controversial author is what attracted lots of people to Glastonbury.
First time discovering your channel and love the content! Kubi is a jubilant individual and I’m so glad to have heard what she had to share! Subscribed!
I live not far from Glastonbury and tbf I find it very artificial. The so-called "pagans" there are overwhelmingly Wiccans and other new age stuff, the woman in this talks about Celtic paganism and ancestral ways but almost everything she believes was invented in the 20th century, it embarrasses me and I think if you're serious about pagan reconstructionism, whether it be Celtic, Germanic or otherwise then it's best to stay away from people playing dress up as fairies
Not all pagans believe in the reconstructionist path. While I agree that new age practices are too often past as "historical" I believe it's important to admit that we know next to nothing about the practices of the past. And for it to survive into the future it must evolve, while still being respectful to the past. Everything in life is about balance; it should not be 100% new-age but it also cannot be 100% reconstructed, because that will never exist again.
@@TheWisdomOfOdin I think that's fair enough, but when you are presenting yourself as a Celtic paganism, like she is, and talking about ancestral healing, then I feel its important to point out what she's actually doing is late 20th century counterculture and has nothing to do with Celts or ancestors
This is exactly what I came away with from this video. I almost want this stuff to be deep and meaningful, but it appears that is not the case. New age woo woo and larping as celts of old is all I see here.
local here too, we have so much authentic historical and archaological reconstruction work going on locally i did a big old eye roll that hes picked an identikit woman off the high street to film wafting around playing pretend in her dressing up outfits. so many people you could have spoken to who would have real knowledge about ancient glastonbury. she got to promote her business though and thats what glasto spirituality is really about the HUSTLE. even back in ancient times im sure every shaman and guru and priest would have been hustling to sell you their brand of religion and i say that as an archaologist!
To understand that religion in its essence was created by man is to understand that all of our spiritual activities actually come from a single source. When we finally realize that we have been tricked into fighting each other with religion, we will then become observant of the singular truth instead of religious contempt for one another. The truth is that Odin and all his wisdom is actually the starting point for all religions. The central teachings of Odin are within all spiritual based scriptures from the beginning to the end. We all share the tree of life.
Maybe in certain religions that have their own doctrine that they hold up as higher than the bible teachings they are supposed to be based around. But not so for the Christian holy Bible itself it is the antithesis of pagan religions. Including Oden.
I wish people would actually research Arthurian legend before throwing around grand assumptions about Avalon and these Anglo-French names like Guinevere and Lancelot. They're just fanciful, imaginative tales spun by middle age clerics and french writers. Little to no truth in them whatsoever. The tales of Arthur are based on Welsh mythologies sourced hundreds of years before, appearing as a great warrior defending the original britons, who would've spoken a language resembling Cymraeg, from the invading germanic tribes. To take figure of Cymru legend, embellish and anglicise the stories, popularising them into some false, stolen English mythology... it's very wrong. Call me a bitter old Welshman but that's my two cents.
Yeah I’d say you’re being a bit snobbish. There is nothing trivial about the “Anglo French” tale that we know and love - whether it was spun by clerics or not; it’s apart of British identity.
Hey Joel, I agree with you, I think the more time goes on new generation run with these stories and make them their own, you have a great day, and go in peace.
It’s true that Arthur has existed in Welsh folklore for many hundreds of years. But I don’t believe the lady in the video spoke about Guinevere or Lancelot or other characters largely invented by Geoffroy of Monmouth in the high middle-ages. I liked this video and it was more about Glastonbury’s significance as an ancient town of spiritual healing related to Celtic mythology. The name Glastonbury itself has the Brythonic root Glas, which is either related to the grey of silver and lead in the area, or possibly related to Cyndrwyn Glas the king of Dogfeilion and a sub-kingdom of Gwynedd. In any case Glastonbury had been part of the ancient kingdom of Dumnonia (ancient Devon) and was Brythonic speaking well into the 7th century, referred to by its name Ynys Witrin. So in the early Middle Ages right up until the time of Alfred the Great, Glastonbury would likely have seemed much like an outpost towards Devon and not really been considered as part of Anglo-Saxon England proper. In that time, as today, Glastonbury with its Tor sat in the middle of the Somerset levels which were an area of flooded plains and largely impassable for mounted armies to cross. That’s moreover the reason why Devon and Cornwall became completely isolated from Anglo-Saxon England, and although their respective kingdoms came to be governed by Anglo-Saxon rulers, the area wasn’t settled by an Anglo-Saxon population. So Somerset became as it is now a bit of a crossroads between the Anglo-Saxon land of England and the Brythonic speaking ‘Celtic’ kingdoms to the west. Glastonbury’s Tor would have represented and other-worldly sacred island in the middle of an impassable wetland during all of this period, so it’s claims of being depicted as an Avalon or sacred isle are not to be taken lightly. Nor is anything linking Glastonbury to ‘Celtic’ mysticism and legend at all unfounded. The ‘English’ are not trying to steal anything from you and the people in this video are not trying to Anglicise any Welsh ‘claims’ to Arthurian mythology. All parts of the west and the north of Britain have stories and legends relating to King Arthur. In Wales, Cornwall, Devon and Somerset as well as in the North and in Scotland. Try not to be bitter about this please, no-one is trying to take anything away from you or from the Welsh. I hope you have a lovely day. Peace! (From a man with 2 parents from Somerset 😊).
@@guy-bernarddavisconductor8037 Thank you for this response. I was tempted to respond a bit negatively, but could not after reading your response. Stories spread, especially hero stories, the symbolism shifts (like the way the Arthur mythos incorporated the far older tales and symbols as our poster correctly states) and it is not stealing, it is blending, and keeps those older ideas traceable - they are and always have always been alive. BTW If you want magic, a place that is and has been a crossroads of geography and culture and history is the ideal place to find it.
White spring left me changed. I personally took the male deity as Gwynn app nudd whilst there as there is local lore about the tor hill being his kingdom and entrance to the otherworld.
I met a wizard from the 5th century at the top of the Tor one night, dressed in a cape and pointed hat and high velvet boots he was carrying a lamp lit with scented oil blessed by a monk which as he told me purified all it touched, when he left he got in a £50K SUV and drove off to his 4bed detached home in Wellow via Tesco to pick up a few bottles of Château Cheval Blanc, its funny world at times,
Well I figured out where I’m moving after graduation >:) this truly looks a beautiful town I’ve never seen so much good energy flow so smoothly through people before like this THIS IS AWESOME
Hate to be 'that person' but she said two words in this that i absolutely hate in regards to history, 'We know'. We really dont, unless 'we know' the doctor and can take a ride in his Tardis the best we can achieve is a best guess. Saying 'its believed' as she does later is much better. Other than that really enjoyed the video, A visit to Glastonbury is on my bucket list, I identify as Pagan but im honestly a beginner, still learning. I'll be showing my Mum the video, she's not Pagan but she will love that Northern Soul Keep the Faith sign on that shelf....
Overall, nice of you to show us this beautiful place. However, it would be so much better if you spent more time on researching the history, or perhaps found a local professor to interview. Your friend seems sweet, and her crafted items on Etsy are beautiful, but seriously expensive! I would think people who would like to have their own wands might like to make their own, because it will be imbued with their own energy and relatively low cost to create. Just my opinion. Take care! ☮
I have SO much time for Arthurian Legend. It was like my gateway drug to paganism 😅 I'm pretty sure Glastonbury Tor was claimed to be a possible site of Camelot for a long time
I hate to do this but Glastonbury in Somerset is nothing to do with King Arthur, even less Joseph of Aramathea. There were two King Arthurs. One was the son of Magnus Maximus, a Roman who tried to usurp Constantine. The later King Arthur was the son of Tewdrig, a Welsh King, and great-grandson of Maximus. There is strong evidence Glastonbury in Somserset is confused with 'Glastenen' - a settlement near Lichfield in The Midlands.
Connecting King Arthur’s name to a site means more visitors and, therefore, more income. So there are a lot of places in the UK that claim to have a connection to King Arthur. This dates back hundreds of years.
A special place... Avalon...land of Apples...look around you see wild apples...look at the land between the Tor and the sea ...see the Lady Well and The reburied Guinevere and Arthur...' King once ,and King to be .'
I am fascinated by Zorro 🥰 What a cutie. Also that other beautiful little dog. I will visit Glastonbury ( not the festival.. the horror) as well as the Cathedral. Also Stonehenge and all other pagan places. In the UK and in Scandinavia. I'm also pagan and a witch.. If I have to give it name "they" call it eclectic paganism. But I'm that comfortable having to name "things" in order explain yourself. Or "belong to a certain group of path". Bu that is how it his world works. Everything has to be labeled. Anyway,I love that pagan path❤
Went to vist some wiches who lives on avolon I am a middum byt as soonvas I got there I seen Arthur waiting for his love seen the lake and the sword abd lods of Arthur men on the field was really amazing they is definitely something powerful going on there 💙💙💚🙏🙏
I would love to meet you this summer when I work in Bath. Something about that region. Somerset Devon Wiltshire Glastonbury I feel strong connections to. Western half English and Northern English have strong connections to the Irish Welsh and Scottish. Southeast too but less so but they do have it too.
It is an amazing place but for the record the Tor is NOT the tower. Its the hill on which the tower sits. Its one of the highest peaks in England and in good weather you can see most of the mendips as far as bath. The spiritual side of it is more that its a very peaceful place which makes it attractive and very expensive to live in. I now live in Weston where i feel less happy as i now have to travel too long to get to it. Thats it my new goal is Glastonbury or wells i just need to work out how to get there.
Perhaps this video & the comments will inspire people to research the historical Arthur. He may have been a romanized British celt who led the resistance to the Saxons in the early 6th century.
The Tor is a labyrinth and holds the Red and White Dragon ley lines. Joseph of Ariimethia pushed the Hawthorn tree into the ground and it took root and grew. There was a Hawthorn there that was over 100 yrs old, not sure its still there. I hope to get to Glastonbury sometime soon and walk the Labyrinth on the Tor! This place is so special!
Yes Joseph of Arimathea was the older brother of Mother Mary, he brought his nephew Jesuit , Mary & himself to Cornwall, first landing in the south of France, and then landing at St. Just, Cornwall. Joseph owned a tin mine there. Jesuit was just 9 years old. Joseph of Arimathia was a precious metal & cloth merchant, a very wealthy man.Together they built a well, which is still called Jesus Well. It is documented of his visit to Glastonbury, and other sacred sites.

I lived in Glasto for a couple of years when I was a kid. What is now the 'White Well' was a cafe called the Well House which was run by my mum.

I must have met you and your mum because I've been in that cafe when I used to camp at the campsite on the lane that isn't there now, I do remember the spring water flowing under the floor, nice cuppa and flapjack,
I worked in the cafe for a while. It could be challenging or fun.
Glastonbury is a truly magical place. I feel very free to truly be myself when I'm there, like coming home 🧡
I feel like I am home thay too , one love
My friends elderly mother was tajen to Glastonbury on a sunny Saturday morning. "Oooh look!" she exclaimed gleefully "everyones in fancy dress!" I love that woman. Heart of gold.
I live in New Zealand now but was born in Glastonbury and lived there for the first 7 years of my life. I can’t believe I didn’t know how special my hometown really was. I’m very grateful of being brought up in such an interesting town.
I'm surprised your family left Somerset, I wouldn't have!

I well remember my first visit to the Tor. My mates and me had been touring Spain on out motorbikes. on the trip back me and another bloke decided to pull off the M5 and visit the Tor. It was a sunny late April morning when we climbed the Tor, at the top there was only 5 people there including us. After a walk around we went to sit on the north westerly slope with the tower behind us. We were just chilling looking out over the seven estuary to the the hills of South Wales.

There was no speakers in the tower and the other people up there didn't seem to be aware of the music. A magical place indeed!
Avalon is an Anglicisation of the Welsh Ynys Afallach , Isle of Apples , a fruit connected to the Otherworld in British mythology . The whole Tor was surrounded by water at one time , lending it it's other name Ynys Wydryn , Isle of Glass , from the mirror like surface of the water . It is the legendary resting place of King Arthur , who legend says was brought there after being mortally wounded at Camlan.
Thanks for the info!!
I believe we should revive the dead Brythonic Languages
We can use Welsh to translate Cumbric due to them being the Closest of the Brythonic Languages
Its really sad because we actually do not know much about our Pre-roman history even the Welsh due to Christianisation .
We have poetry and stories from that time, but they come from Roman historians
We know what other peoples like the Vikings and Romans thought of the Isles, but not what the people themselves thought
We don't even know who King Arthur is meant to be if he was based on a real figure
We know so little about our own Mythology and what we do know comes from mostly outside sources
Brythonic mythology could be as big as Norse or Greek mythology
The Angelcynn conquered you by fire and steel and crushed your mythical Arthur (who was probably Roman anyway, if he ever existed). Get over it. Woden is the stronger God and you now live in rocks and heathland. "Welsh" is Englisc for "foreign". Enough said!
That's beautiful. Thank you.
I live close to Glastonbury and I'm looking forward to celebrating the Winter Solstice this year again. A spiritual and profound place

White springs will change your life!
Wow 🥰 many blessings have fun
Awesome!!
I arrived in Glastonbury today. The town welcomed me with the festival celebrating the Dragon’s Day. Tomorrow, is Beltane… 6:30 am The Chalice Well will start celebrating. This place is so rich and there is very special energy…
Same! Just going back to work and can't wait to go back again! Well worth the early start! Happy May Day
What an awesome place and experience! Kubi seems like such a joy to be around. Hopefully as paganism continues to come back there will be more organic meetings like this in America. To come together and celebrate the sun and moon like that would be awesome.
Kubi was extremely kind and hospitable. Cant wait till I can go back and visit!
Witches who hold their fluffy little doggies so content like that, are the BEST people on earth!
I live in Bristol and go there all the time to clear my head
Holy crap. Thank you so much for sharing and thank you kubi so much for sharing! My thoughts on the yew tree stump being tossed into the well: It was common for christians to chop down pagans sacred trees. Maybe the stump was the towns sacred tree that they cut down. They might've tossed the stump in as an offering AND to poison the bastards 🤣
I visited Glastonbury in 1990 and we happened to be there on Halloween. Meditated with my spiritual teacher on the top of the Tor, where you could feel a huge surge of mother goddess energy rising up. I do remember walking up to the Tor and feeling anger that there were so many surburban style homes nearby, felt as if they were violating the sacred space and later had the impression of a bronze age woman living there.
Thank you Kuby and Jacob for this fabulous video; both my husband and I love the Other Glastonbury. Your little doggy is so adorable too Kuby and we both loved your energy 💜.
Love it. I'm just a simple witch with a broom and a pointy hat; not being spiritual at all, but to me Glastonbury is still a very dear and sacred place.
Is your broom a Nimbus 2000 lol ✌️
Wow, thanks so much for this video. Glastonbury has been towards the top of my bucket list for many years now. I doubt I'll ever get to go but it was wonderful getting a glimpse of it through your video.
Believe me you're not missing much. I live in that part of the country. Architecturally and historically the whole area is wonderful, but Glastonbury has been taken over by this false mysticism/crystal and wannabe druids. It's so false and embarrassing. The Tor itself is well worth a visit though - providing there's no false Pagan ceremonies going on!
@@lemming9984 🤣
Thank you so much. I live on Hawaii but have been dreaming of Avalon and wondering what the sweet tracks and apple trees look like growing around there. I am so grateful to be able to see Glastonbury. Joseph of Arimathea is listed in my Welsh ancestry as are several of the old dieties in the legends of King Arthur. It is wonderful to see a place that actually honors the pre-Christian dieties.
Beltane blessings Everyone 🌻❤️🔥 xx
Thanks Jacob for another great video. Hope your enjoying all ur travels . May the God's keep you.
I’m very fond of Glastonbury and certainly agree that it has a very special atmosphere - so I’m not surprised so many people make a sort of pilgrimage to find whatever they’re looking for. It’s also gloriously eccentric and some aspects are downright hilarious. The White Well for example, is actually a former municipal waterworks! Also mildly annoying is the notion that all things spiritual, occult, folkloric or paranormal are somehow ‘Celtic’.
The "somehow" is realized by the fact that the Celts where there first......
I’ve been catholic my whole life , I’ve always felt a sort of confusion and distance from God. I should preface this by saying I have a very Norse ethnicity, my ancestors came from all over France, Denmark and Ireland. Now I was going to a sports match and I though, what’s a great way to get pumped, why not listen to some music from my heritage. So I started playing some traditional Norse music and I closed my eyes and within a few minutes I say this campfire and I saw a group of around 10 men and women dancing around the fire to the music and I felt connected to these people. Then I noticed this one man, very large man blonde and stereotypical Viking man. He approached me and stared into my eyes and I felt this powerful feeling of warmth and security and power. Then he was walking me through this dark forest when I knew I needed to open my eyes again and leave he turned around, and looked at me and “said” return to us again soon. Now, I am still very skeptical, but it’s making me question my Catholicism, and the world around me. What an experience.
The devil can appear as an angel of light and deceive you. Christ rose from the dead and defeated the devil, sin, and the pagan world. If you are questioning your Catholic faith maybe it because you have only experienced the modernist version of the faith, which is a mixture of truth and error. It has diluted the faith. The modernist Catholic Church has a new Mass religious liberty, and ecumenism as opposed to tolerance and faithfulness to the one true Church of Christ. Look at the traditional faith, as practiced by the SSPX. The Mass celebrated is ancient and in Latin. There you will discover the true faith. As for the witches and pagans of Glastonbury, they are, tragically, on their way to hell, unless they turn to God and His Christ for salvation. The tower that these hippy reprobates are banging drums in is the place where the last abbot of Glastonbury, Fr. Richard Whiting was hung drawn and quartered for his Catholic faith. It is disgusting! My advice pray to our blessed Mother, and say your rosary every day.
May I ask what traditional Norse music you listened to?
England was formed by pagan Anglo-Saxons. When the Church took over, everyone lost their freedom and liberty. Abrahamic religion was enforced upon the European people and history shows it has been detrimental to society. Break the chains! Be FREE!!!
Please keep your eyes and heart on Jesus. He loves you more than anyone; you know that. Turning away from Him will cause Him great sorrow and cause you to lose your salvation. There is far more strength, peace and grace in just one of our Sacraments than all the pagan and cultural practices rolled up together. Those practices will take you from Him and leave you empty eventually. I pray you will stay on the path to life.
@@lyndavonkanel8603 it’s none of your business what this persons relationship with their god or gods is. One wonders if you’re such a Christian why you’re in the comments section of a video on a pagan site with a pagan viewpoint. If it’s just so you can try to “convert the pagans” please don’t.
It’s one of my dreams to go to Glastonbury someday(from Midwest U.S)! I am just starting my druidic path, it will definitely be a pilgrimage site for me.
Great Video! i HOPE VISIT Glastonbury one day! Cheers from Mexico!
Very beautiful place thanks for the video and the brief overview . 👍
Years now I say a prayer to the green man, Cernunnos!
The Green Man is not Cernunnos.
No green man image has him wearing stag antlers - unlike Cernunnos.
When I first started to walk my path, I found myself on a Pilgrimage to Glastonbury. I loved the place, loved the sites, loved the energy and the mix of most people. My Son has recently joined the Pagan Faith and can't wait for his Pilgrimage ❤️
Loved this video. My family all come from Somerset so it was really nice to see somebody take the time to speak about Glastonbury and it’s history and mythology (..and not mention the festival too much 😅). Thanks 😊
Really enjoyed this upload, so many thanks. Many wonderful memories with many wonderful people in Glastonbury.
Zorro's twin and soul brother Babaji is 15 and is beside me on the couch in Magical Mayo. Will be in Avalon end of next week my sister. Joy to all.
Hi, I’m planning to visit Glastonbury and Stonehenge in 4 months time, can’t wait!
WOW so glad you introduced me to Kubi! Awesome!
What a beautiful time we live in where Pagans and Christians can come to a sacred place and practice their beliefs in peace. 🥰
We've worked hard to achieve that.
In my experience, it's common to hear pagans vilify christians and christianity in the town so I wouldn't say they live in peace.
Loved watching this! Wonderful to see images from ínside the white spring. Ì bathed and chanted in the white spring while on a retreat in Glastonbury fìve years ago. An incredibly powerful experience.
Thankyou both for making this video
I have always wanted to visit Glastonbury
Goddess Bridget …..never back down on your beliefs very interesting
Great guidance

Congratulations on your work and following your dreams 🌀🌗🙏🧡
Powerful video brother..keep the fires of the old ways burning bright. Lest we beforgoten to the pages of history..skol..
So beautiful! Can’t wait to visit
My uncle lives just down the road from Glastonbury and his house overlooks Glastonbury Tor. Love it around there, it definitely has a very unique atmosphere from anywhere else in the UK.
Glastonbury' ace.... What a place... Went there for Anglican pilgrimage last year.... Procession down the highstreet being the highlight..
The bookshop blew me away.... Peace... .
The icon that is Kubi May
I think what is funny is that most people link Celtic heritage to the UK only. But the Celts lived most of their years in Germany and Austria before they moved north. Before the Celtic traditions, there have been even older ones on the islands, which have been forgotten it seems.
Yes the term "celtic" is much misunderstood and misused. I think in this contect a better description would be 'indigenous British' but i've found people like to distance themselves from the word British these days and 'celtic' sounds more romantic.
This has been debunked by historians and they now believe that they started in northern Spain/ northern Portugal.
@@PadmeP I agree.The British averagely are 70 percent British Indigenous. I feel the connection to the SW of England. I lived in Bath and in Salisbury in the past. This summer I will work in Bath. Been to Glastonbury before. I want to go back again and Avebury.
@@amyw6808 NW European more so in my opinion. Iberians share genetics with NW Europeans. French, Alpine Italy Switzerland Western Austria South Western Germans along with the British isles. Many of the people do look similar too.
That's Germanic ya nut, the Celtic people originate from Spain to France to what is now England, wales, Cornwall's, Scotland and Ireland.
You are thinking Germanic like the Saxons and Visigoths, infact the ancient British folk before Rome conquered them naming the place Britannia spoke a Celtic Dialect and even shared similar Gods with those of their cousins the Celts of what is now France and Spain like the Celtic god of thunder Taranis, only the Irish tend to change it up compared to other Celtic speakers.
I'm an atheist who finds myself increasingly drawn to this type of thing. I just can't switch on belief in various gods, my mind won't let me do that but nonetheless here I am. Its a puzzle?
Not necessarily. I was brought up christian but joining the Army gave me the chance to find my own way, and I was drawn to paganism instantly. I explored several traditions and paths, had encounters with several Gods and Goddesses, and yet something always felt... shortsighted about it all. My current understanding is that what people refer to as Gods or Spirits are aspects of Nature that reveal their consciousness only to other consciousness and not as much through physical means like speaking, likely because of existing at a higher consciousness than humans. Those who do so, find that the consciousness of Nature expresses itself in a way that the consciousness of a person can understand and interact with, which is why several cultures all have Goddesses of Beauty, Gods of the Sun, etc. However, I also have experience of a One Creator, in which all things are thoughts in the Mind of the Infinite. So I tend to see Gods and Spirits less as "divine overlords that grant boons in exchange for offerings" and more like people that I can interact with and learn from, all while exploring the Great Mystery together and expanding consciousness in order to perceive more of that Mystery. So long story short, you do not need to bow to Gods to be Pagan. You do not need to believe beyond your perceptions. Expand your perceptions and there is no need for belief.
It’s funny, (I’m in the army too) and I was raised christian, but I always felt connected to nature, particularly when I went fishing of all things, and when someone introduced me to the idea of paganism about two years ago, I started reading literature on the religions and went “OOP THAT EXPLAINS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL!” For me it started with a feeling and eventually I started implementing the ideals and cultural normality’s of my ancestors into my everyday life, slowly but surely I developed into a more tried and true pagan, but this journey is FAR from over, im still learning and grasping for more everyday…in short what I’m tryna say is this takes time, some will get it and some will not, you’ll know
i'm atheist also...i can't believe in gods of any kind...can't bring myself...but i feel the 'spirit' of the natural world...the unconscious bod between me and animals...and certain other humans...it's what i aspire to...tapping into that bond with the natural world...
aye it is but you can spend time working it out dd
YES, tis a puzzle! If you never solve it, that might be okay.
I met a guy from Glastonbury England came to visit Glastonbury Connecticut. He does a Thors Tours of the Tor and Yes his name is Thor
He spells it Tor not Thor. I stayed at the B & B that he and his wife runs the first time I visited Glastonbury. The book Mists of Avalon by its controversial author is what attracted lots of people to Glastonbury.
First time discovering your channel and love the content! Kubi is a jubilant individual and I’m so glad to have heard what she had to share! Subscribed!
Glad you found your way here! Lots of exciting things coming!
Such a great video. Thank you. I hope one day I too shall experience this. Side note, I love Kubi, and her dress. I hope I spelled her name right.
Glastonbury is a special place. There are two very old trees on the field by the Tor…they are called Gog and Magog.
So fun! Thank you 🧡
I’m loving this travel series! I want to go on these pilgrimages someday.
I live not far from Glastonbury and tbf I find it very artificial. The so-called "pagans" there are overwhelmingly Wiccans and other new age stuff, the woman in this talks about Celtic paganism and ancestral ways but almost everything she believes was invented in the 20th century, it embarrasses me and I think if you're serious about pagan reconstructionism, whether it be Celtic, Germanic or otherwise then it's best to stay away from people playing dress up as fairies
Not all pagans believe in the reconstructionist path. While I agree that new age practices are too often past as "historical" I believe it's important to admit that we know next to nothing about the practices of the past. And for it to survive into the future it must evolve, while still being respectful to the past.
Everything in life is about balance; it should not be 100% new-age but it also cannot be 100% reconstructed, because that will never exist again.
@@TheWisdomOfOdin I think that's fair enough, but when you are presenting yourself as a Celtic paganism, like she is, and talking about ancestral healing, then I feel its important to point out what she's actually doing is late 20th century counterculture and has nothing to do with Celts or ancestors
Another elitist viewer? Do you tell Protestants they’re not Catholic enough too?
This is exactly what I came away with from this video. I almost want this stuff to be deep and meaningful, but it appears that is not the case. New age woo woo and larping as celts of old is all I see here.
local here too, we have so much authentic historical and archaological reconstruction work going on locally i did a big old eye roll that hes picked an identikit woman off the high street to film wafting around playing pretend in her dressing up outfits. so many people you could have spoken to who would have real knowledge about ancient glastonbury. she got to promote her business though and thats what glasto spirituality is really about the HUSTLE. even back in ancient times im sure every shaman and guru and priest would have been hustling to sell you their brand of religion and i say that as an archaologist!
To understand that religion in its essence was created by man is to understand that all of our spiritual activities actually come from a single source. When we finally realize that we have been tricked into fighting each other with religion, we will then become observant of the singular truth instead of religious contempt for one another. The truth is that Odin and all his wisdom is actually the starting point for all religions. The central teachings of Odin are within all spiritual based scriptures from the beginning to the end. We all share the tree of life.
Maybe in certain religions that have their own doctrine that they hold up as higher than the bible teachings they are supposed to be based around. But not so for the Christian holy Bible itself it is the antithesis of pagan religions. Including Oden.
I wish people would actually research Arthurian legend before throwing around grand assumptions about Avalon and these Anglo-French names like Guinevere and Lancelot. They're just fanciful, imaginative tales spun by middle age clerics and french writers. Little to no truth in them whatsoever. The tales of Arthur are based on Welsh mythologies sourced hundreds of years before, appearing as a great warrior defending the original britons, who would've spoken a language resembling Cymraeg, from the invading germanic tribes. To take figure of Cymru legend, embellish and anglicise the stories, popularising them into some false, stolen English mythology... it's very wrong. Call me a bitter old Welshman but that's my two cents.
Yeah I’d say you’re being a bit snobbish. There is nothing trivial about the “Anglo French” tale that we know and love - whether it was spun by clerics or not; it’s apart of British identity.
Hey Joel, I agree with you, I think the more time goes on new generation run with these stories and make them their own, you have a great day, and go in peace.
I agree do the research
It’s true that Arthur has existed in Welsh folklore for many hundreds of years. But I don’t believe the lady in the video spoke about Guinevere or Lancelot or other characters largely invented by Geoffroy of Monmouth in the high middle-ages. I liked this video and it was more about Glastonbury’s significance as an ancient town of spiritual healing related to Celtic mythology. The name Glastonbury itself has the Brythonic root Glas, which is either related to the grey of silver and lead in the area, or possibly related to Cyndrwyn Glas the king of Dogfeilion and a sub-kingdom of Gwynedd. In any case Glastonbury had been part of the ancient kingdom of Dumnonia (ancient Devon) and was Brythonic speaking well into the 7th century, referred to by its name Ynys Witrin. So in the early Middle Ages right up until the time of Alfred the Great, Glastonbury would likely have seemed much like an outpost towards Devon and not really been considered as part of Anglo-Saxon England proper. In that time, as today, Glastonbury with its Tor sat in the middle of the Somerset levels which were an area of flooded plains and largely impassable for mounted armies to cross. That’s moreover the reason why Devon and Cornwall became completely isolated from Anglo-Saxon England, and although their respective kingdoms came to be governed by Anglo-Saxon rulers, the area wasn’t settled by an Anglo-Saxon population. So Somerset became as it is now a bit of a crossroads between the Anglo-Saxon land of England and the Brythonic speaking ‘Celtic’ kingdoms to the west. Glastonbury’s Tor would have represented and other-worldly sacred island in the middle of an impassable wetland during all of this period, so it’s claims of being depicted as an Avalon or sacred isle are not to be taken lightly. Nor is anything linking Glastonbury to ‘Celtic’ mysticism and legend at all unfounded. The ‘English’ are not trying to steal anything from you and the people in this video are not trying to Anglicise any Welsh ‘claims’ to Arthurian mythology. All parts of the west and the north of Britain have stories and legends relating to King Arthur. In Wales, Cornwall, Devon and Somerset as well as in the North and in Scotland. Try not to be bitter about this please, no-one is trying to take anything away from you or from the Welsh. I hope you have a lovely day. Peace! (From a man with 2 parents from Somerset 😊).
@@guy-bernarddavisconductor8037 Thank you for this response. I was tempted to respond a bit negatively, but could not after reading your response. Stories spread, especially hero stories, the symbolism shifts (like the way the Arthur mythos incorporated the far older tales and symbols as our poster correctly states) and it is not stealing, it is blending, and keeps those older ideas traceable - they are and always have always been alive.
BTW If you want magic, a place that is and has been a crossroads of geography and culture and history is the ideal place to find it.
Love to know your book collection ♥️
Absolutely amazing love the lore and culture not to mention all the beautiful scenery!👍
cool stuff dude ,thanks
Skall my brothers ....
Hail Odinn...
The best videos on UA-cam are right here.
Thank you! That means a lot!
Anytime man, you ever have any other gatherings close to Kentucky let me know ❤️
Nice pair of KEF Coda III speakers in the background.
White spring left me changed. I personally took the male deity as Gwynn app nudd whilst there as there is local lore about the tor hill being his kingdom and entrance to the otherworld.
I met a wizard from the 5th century at the top of the Tor one night, dressed in a cape and pointed hat and high velvet boots he was carrying a lamp lit with scented oil blessed by a monk which as he told me purified all it touched, when he left he got in a £50K SUV and drove off to his 4bed detached home in Wellow via Tesco to pick up a few bottles of Château Cheval Blanc, its funny world at times,
The medieval festival was last weekend, hopefully you caught it! If not definetely come back for it, happens every year and has some great displays.
One of my favorite places , love it
I can’t get over the girl’s old dog just passed out in her arms 🤣
Cernunnos used to visit me in my dreams when i was very very young.
Well I figured out where I’m moving after graduation >:) this truly looks a beautiful town I’ve never seen so much good energy flow so smoothly through people before like this THIS IS AWESOME
Hate to be 'that person' but she said two words in this that i absolutely hate in regards to history, 'We know'. We really dont, unless 'we know' the doctor and can take a ride in his Tardis the best we can achieve is a best guess. Saying 'its believed' as she does later is much better. Other than that really enjoyed the video, A visit to Glastonbury is on my bucket list, I identify as Pagan but im honestly a beginner, still learning. I'll be showing my Mum the video, she's not Pagan but she will love that Northern Soul Keep the Faith sign on that shelf....
That is a nice video. Yes, good the place exists . Mushrooms probably grow there, too .
Gorgeous Lands for sure.
Overall, nice of you to show us this beautiful place. However, it would be so much better if you spent more time on researching the history, or perhaps found a local professor to interview. Your friend seems sweet, and her crafted items on Etsy are beautiful, but seriously expensive! I would think people who would like to have their own wands might like to make their own, because it will be imbued with their own energy and relatively low cost to create. Just my opinion. Take care! ☮
I have SO much time for Arthurian Legend. It was like my gateway drug to paganism 😅
I'm pretty sure Glastonbury Tor was claimed to be a possible site of Camelot for a long time
Oh Amy, you and Kubi would be best friends for sure 😂
I hate to do this but Glastonbury in Somerset is nothing to do with King Arthur, even less Joseph of Aramathea.
There were two King Arthurs. One was the son of Magnus Maximus, a Roman who tried to usurp Constantine. The later King Arthur was the son of Tewdrig, a Welsh King, and great-grandson of Maximus.
There is strong evidence Glastonbury in Somserset is confused with 'Glastenen' - a settlement near Lichfield in The Midlands.
never heard of Glastonbury Tor being site of Camelot
@@PadmeP That's correct, it wasn't. Camelot, if it existed, is thought to be located in Glamorgan.
It is the place where the deity Gwyn ap Nudd (Nodens) appeared to a follower of the Abrahamic religion.
Wow Kubi really glows...
Yes we should all be having full moon parties and using the powerful energy to raise the vibration 📳 ✨ 🙌
Give your crystals a good cleanse 💎
Interesting story about the oak tree 🌳
The scenery is...😍 🤩
Ive alway wished i was a clairvoyant and could see the history of these old buildings and artifacts for myself❤
Connecting King Arthur’s name to a site means more visitors and, therefore, more income. So there are a lot of places in the UK that claim to have a connection to King Arthur. This dates back hundreds of years.
Yes the white springs are pretty amazing and the water contains lots of magical minerals 💧
A special place... Avalon...land of Apples...look around you see wild apples...look at the land between the Tor and the sea ...see the Lady Well and The reburied Guinevere and Arthur...' King once ,and King to be .'
I've never been there. I can't wait to make a pilgrimage some time ❤🙏👍
Just go, and have fun ✌️
I am fascinated by Zorro 🥰 What a cutie. Also that other beautiful little dog. I will visit Glastonbury ( not the festival.. the horror) as well as the Cathedral. Also Stonehenge and all other pagan places. In the UK and in Scandinavia. I'm also pagan and a witch.. If I have to give it name "they" call it eclectic paganism. But I'm that comfortable having to name "things" in order explain yourself. Or "belong to a certain group of path". Bu that is how it his world works. Everything has to be labeled. Anyway,I love that pagan path❤
I was at Glastonbury for the same week. It was freezing! Had to go buy a duvet to wrapover my doss bag!
It looks like gorgeous place to live,
In July 2020 i was on the Thor and i met my own Soul ( trough my eyes she was there with me ) ✨✳️💃💞✳️✨
The most Magical Place for me☀️
Sounds like good acid!
There is some evidence that there was a stone circle at the top of Glastonbury Tor which was then later a place for a Church and then the tower 🙏🏼
Went to vist some wiches who lives on avolon I am a middum byt as soonvas I got there I seen Arthur waiting for his love seen the lake and the sword abd lods of Arthur men on the field was really amazing they is definitely something powerful going on there 💙💙💚🙏🙏
The White spring is very special. It's untainted by the commercialism of the town
Great video! I need to go back. The white springs were closed the last time I went :(
I would love to meet you this summer when I work in Bath. Something about that region. Somerset Devon Wiltshire Glastonbury I feel strong connections to. Western half English and Northern English have strong connections to the Irish Welsh and Scottish. Southeast too but less so but they do have it too.
Magical 💖
It,$ a very simple life if you have €£$€£$€£$€£$
The today Glastonbury is more like a circus attraction
It is an amazing place but for the record the Tor is NOT the tower. Its the hill on which the tower sits. Its one of the highest peaks in England and in good weather you can see most of the mendips as far as bath. The spiritual side of it is more that its a very peaceful place which makes it attractive and very expensive to live in. I now live in Weston where i feel less happy as i now have to travel too long to get to it. Thats it my new goal is Glastonbury or wells i just need to work out how to get there.
Perhaps this video & the comments will inspire people to research the historical Arthur. He may have been a romanized British celt who led the resistance to the Saxons in the early 6th century.
The Tor is a labyrinth and holds the Red and White Dragon ley lines. Joseph of Ariimethia pushed the Hawthorn tree into the ground and it took root and grew. There was a Hawthorn there that was over 100 yrs old, not sure its still there. I hope to get to Glastonbury sometime soon and walk the Labyrinth on the Tor! This place is so special!
Yes Joseph of Arimathea was the older brother of Mother Mary, he brought his nephew Jesuit , Mary & himself to Cornwall, first landing in the south of France, and then landing at St. Just, Cornwall. Joseph owned a tin mine there. Jesuit was just 9 years old. Joseph of Arimathia was a precious metal & cloth merchant, a very wealthy man.Together they built a well, which is still called Jesus Well. It is documented of his visit to Glastonbury, and other sacred sites.
"There is no such thing as Good Magic or Bad Magic, White or Black. There is only magic. It's how it's used, or by whom that matters. It comes under our direction - if we have the power" ~ J Herbert
I would love to go there and do a class or course with Queby may.
I was born in Glastonbury, butleigh. 🙏🌞🌻🐝🦋✨♾️
