My trip to Stonehenge (U.K.)

A few years back, Sue and I made plans to visit our good friends, Stuart and Dean in the U.K. They planned to take us to the famous ancient monument known as Stonehenge in Salisbury.

Days before our flight, I was getting visions of huge stones floating in the air with a high pitch humming sound accompanying it.  The stones I was seeing were the huge stones of Stonehenge. Night after night, the sound and visions persisted.

 A few days later, we boarded the plane to begin our trip.

The flight was great, we flew Aer Lingus into Ireland where after clearing customs we took a short flight into England. When we landed, Stuart and Dean were there to greet us. I found it hard to get used to right hand drive vehicles traveling on the left side of the road and had my first taste experiencing the roundabouts that seem to pop up every few miles. (A roundabout is a circular intersection where traffic flows counterclockwise around a raised center island.)

I told Stuart and Dean my experience with the visions of the huge stones levitating and the high pitch sounds that accompanied it.  Stuart and Dean are psychic mediums and discussions like this are perfectly normal in our world.

The day we visited Stonehenge was clear and bright.  We parked the car and headed for the main building.  Once there, we were transported by bus to the site about 2 miles away.

The visions of Stonehenge I saw during sleep were now in front of me. It was a perfect duplicate of the images I was experiencing prior to the trip. The area is roped off and touching the stones is prohibited. We didn’t walk together as a group, I stayed with Dean while Stuart and Sue walked close to each other, all of us circling the structure. 

On the pathway stood an aluminum foot bridge.  There was a small shallow creek that ran under it.  I’m sure the caretakers built it so the tourists didn’t wade through a patch of mud that would eventually find itself onto the busses and the main building. I crossed the bridge and about a few seconds and 25 feet later we heard the sound of a large crack of electricity. Everyone walking in the circle stopped, the recipient of the shock was no other than Stuart who had his hand on the railing on the bridge.  The cracking sound we heard was of a higher voltage, I would guess 240 volts.  I on occasion work with electricity and my 240 volt guess, is pretty much on target.

I investigated the area around the bridge and found no wiring on or about the bridge.  The electric discharge came from nowhere.  Stuart was hurting but managed to get through it. 

Could my visions of levitating stones and the high pitch sounds be a part of this electric experience?  This was power generated from no known source. I wonder if this has happened before or were we the first?  We’ll probably never know.

My visions would seem unbelievable yet when you consider what is told to the public about Stonehenge by the experts, it’s not so outlandish.

The age of Stonehenge is estimated at 5000 years. The upright stones (15) weigh as much as 60,000 lbs. and the quarry they came from is 20 miles away.  The tools they used to shape the stones were made from soft bronze and copper. On boulders?  That’s highly unlikely. The stones were transported on a wooden sled, (The wheel wasn’t invented yet). They would drag the stone on rough often wet and muddy primitive roads, over water, through the heat of summer and the frosty days of winter.

The smaller stones originated from South Wales, a trip of 125 miles and the central or alter stone from Northeast Scotland, that total 450 miles. I wonder for how long and how many of these men abandoned their village to gather these stones? 

Trips would take considerable time.  How did they find the time to gather food?  You can’t pull a sled using all your strength for miles and days without collapsing.  5000 years ago, many newborns died early, the average man was lucky to have lived into his late 20s to early 30s.  Records state very few lived to be 50 or 60.

 It’s safe to say these men would not be as strong as men today. The lack of proper food, medicine, and clothing would certainly take its toll on life expectancy. 

Why did they build Stonehenge?  Frankly, I don’t believe the experts really know.  It has been suggested that it’s a solar calendar, sacred temple or cremation cemetery and it took 1500 years to build. That’s 50+ generations. What may have started off as a single project, after a millennium and a half, that initial goal of the project must have changed a multitude of times.

Others have the opinion that machines like UFOs were involved with the building of Stonehenge.  I won’t dispute that. Taking all the information given to us, it makes perfect sense. 

Stonehenge is certainly worth seeing. It’s age alone, is mind-blowing and the caretakers do an excellent job in keeping the site clean and the grounds well-manicured.

My personal opinion, what is told to the public at the facility as factual, I would take lightly.

If you visited Stonehenge, please let me know what your impressions were. I’d be delighted in hearing opinions and theories concerning this magnificent stone shrine.
