Emotions and Gardens.
I have refrained from making a posting such as this before because I am
sure someone will take the p*ss! I am not superstitious and I am not prone to being led by my emotions generally. I have lived in my current house which has a large garden for about four years. It was very overgrown when I arrived. I have spent sometime clearing it and making flower beds and a veggie patch amongst other things. I haven't finished yet by a long way. There is a part of this garden which worries me. I can only describe it as having a "presence". Its spooks me. I find it erie and when I have been working and clearing there I always feel as if I am being watched or someone has come into the garden and I have to leave to take a look etc. I cant call it malevolent but its not a happy feeling. Its also very cold with a biting wind that cuts across it . I have tried to put in a wind break in several places but to no effect. Its cold on the hottest of days. The rest of the garden doesn't seem to have any kind of wind problem at all. Ive also had several accidents and incidents in this part of the garden. Each time I change anything or disturb anything I end up stung by wasps ( in December?). The fence has fallen down and the Cornish wall has collapsed. I am currently repairing both. Hence my comments today. Ive been down there again and felt this feeling. Ive tried clearing the area . Tidying and altering it. Taking down large over grown bushes and re planting and even done some hard landscaping but this feeling abides. Its a large narrow section of garden about 20 ft by 100 ft strip across the back of the garden. The garden is SW facing and this is western part of it. In the one corner there is a green house. I am not happy going in there either although there are no growing problems. I got a good crop of tomatoes last year, although the first year I bought it into use I thought I had tobacco virus! However, subsequent years have shown no such problem. Anyone ever come across anything like this in their garden? Likely answers to a cause? rational ones would be good , but I'll entertain anything within reason! Any solutions? |

Haven't got any answers logical or otherwise but maybe some research into previous owners, historical events etc might uncover something interesting |

It might be worthwhile posting this to Uk.religion.pagan they've done a few
threads on this recently -- Rhiannon http://www.livejournal.com/users/rhiannon_s/ Q: how many witches does it take to change a lightbulb? A: depends on what you want it changed into! |
