San Francisco Bay Area is a deeply magickal place; one myth holds that after Atlantis sank beneath the waves, that all the descendants of that race move to the Bay Area, where we wait for the next "Big One", until we at last rejoin our ancestors beneath the waves in another gigantic cataclysm.
There is a deep underlying sacred geography about the place, with the primary orientation being NNW-SSE along the axis of the telluric forces and faultlines in the region. Within this overall pattern, there are many special spiritual sites, each with their own Genius Loci, where water spirits, wood spirits and other entities abound. Some of these are easy to spot; Mt. Diablo, Muir Woods, San Francisco itself; but there are literally thousands of smaller sites scattered across the geography of the Bay Area, where we can sense the Spirit world and Great Forces at work.
In this blog, I'll be writing about some of the many walks in the area which you can take to visit these places; and the things which you can see there. There are locations for Sacred Stones and Minerals, for Healing Herbs, which can be used in spellwork, brews, potions, or for mojo-bags and your pagan Altars. I'll also be sharing what I know about the plants, geology and geography of the Bay Area, and connecting that with the metaphysical landscape invisible to objectivism. And along the way, I'll be randomly discussing philosophy and whatnot. Feel free to join in the discussion by commenting on the posts (and on the comments), and also to contribute what you know.
Right now, I'm off to another of our wonderful parks! Be seeing you!
