The Hills of Headwaters is the highest elevation in southern Ontario. From here, clear, cold springs bubble up from the earth, pick up rain and melting snow and gather into rivers that flow north, east, south and west into the Great Lakes. The area is covered with thick primal forests and rocky outcrops. This unique landscape was internationally recognized in 1990, UNESCO (the United Nations Educations, Scientific and Cultural Organization) named Ontario’s Niagara Escarpment a World Biosphere Reserve, one of only 11 such reserves in Canada and one of only 411 worldwide. This designation places the escarpment in the company of other well-known biosphere reserves such as the Galapagos Islands, Africa’s Serengeti, Uluru (Ayers rock) Australia, and the Mojave desert.
The ancient peoples recognized that certain locations carried special energies. The “ley of the land” was not about the geographical, physical nature of one’s surroundings. It had a much more powerful meaning than that. To the ancients, the “ley of the land” was a term describing how the cosmic forces flowed through and influenced the area, as well as how the area itself affected those cosmic forces.
The ancients of each civilization knew the paths of the ley lines and how to amplify the already abundant energy. Native cultures in the Americas called them the Spirit Path. The Chinese understood them to be a balance between the yin and the yang and the Aborigines of Australia called them Song Lines. Our ancestors often traveled the pathways in solitude, allowing communion between their physical, mental and spiritual being and the Divine. They knew that when these energies interacted with the body’s physical makeup the traveler often experienced a feeling of enhanced self -awareness and a sense of centered spirituality.
It is my hope that the energies of this magical land and its waters will assist with your healing and spiritual development.
