Happy decade – welcome 2020!

As we enter a new decade, is it time to take Reiki, Animal Reiki or Animal Communication classes to help move toward your life purpose?

In January, Hidden Brook Farm is offering:

• Jan 20-22 Holy Fire® III Karuna® Reiki masters class – Fredericton (pre-requisite Reiki Masters from any lineage at least 6 months prior)
• Jan 26 Animal Communication course – Moncton
• Jan 27-28 Usui/Holy Fire® III Level 1&2 class – Fredericton
• Jan 29-31 Usui/Holy Fire® III Reiki Masters class – Fredericton (pre-requisite Reiki level 1&2 from any lineage at least 6 months prior)

In February, in Australia, I will teach 5 days of ICRT Center Licensed Usui/Holy Fire® III Reiki® courses as well as Animal Reiki levels 1&2 for the first time!  Click on the photo below to be directed to our website for additional information or to register.

And in March, we head to London, England with a Reiki level 1&2 class and Animal Communication.  I hope you can join us!

And for some exciting news, I have been asked to be a speaker at the Equine Affaire in Ohio in April just before I teach there.  I will be giving 4 presentations there and am super excited to meet everybody!

We plan to offer a Reiki Mentorship program online through Zoom soon – so it will be available to people anywhere in the world. 

Here is a full list of our upcoming events for 2020:

Linda Wentzel is hosting 2 workshops in May 2019 in Bridgewater:

Intro to Dowsing – May 16th (Free)

Dowsing Level 1 – May 25th

Please see the EVENTS PAGE for more information on registering!

From the Steering Committee, we would like to wish you a wonderful New Year!    

We’d also like to share with you some of our initial plans for 2019, following up on what is already happening and trying to streamline some of our initiatives so they can be more accessible to a larger audience.   We were very inspired at our gathering last Fall, by our collective knowledge and the many ways in which dowsers are making a difference in their lives and in the world.   There was a strong spirit of learning and sharing among the participants.

Looking for Water Dowsers

Through our website and direct communications, we often get requests from families asking for a dowser to help them find the best spot for drilling a well.   We are looking for experienced water dowsers who would be willing to respond to these requests, either by visiting the land or by dowsing a map.  The ability to map-dowse for water is very valuable as it broadens the scope and impact we can have as dowsers in our region.  We would appreciate hearing from water dowser volunteers who would like to join ADS in this initiative. Please let us know by emailing to contact@atlanticdowserssociety.org or by replying to this email if you are willing to help in this way.

Local Representatives for Dowsing Groups

During the first years of ADS, members expressed an interest in promoting dowsers to organize themselves in small groups around the Atlantic Region.  These groups would be able to meet more often and welcome and train newcomers.  We also get letters through our website asking what kind of events are happening at a local level.  We know this is already happening in some areas, and these groups are welcome to use our website to promote their contact information.  In addition, dowsers willing to start a group in their area, are also welcome to use our website as a point of contact.  If you would like to be a contact person for a local group, and are willing to respond to inquires about dowsing relevant for your area, please let us know.

Fall Conference 

We will host our annual conference at the Tatamagouche Centre sometime in late September or early October.   More details about this will come later on.  Please let us know your ideas and suggestions as we move forward in planning our gathering.  We are always looking for speakers!

We appreciate your ideas and suggestions, as they are very valuable to continue finding ways in which ADS can best supports its members as well as people that reach out to us.  You can contact us by emailing to contact@atlanticdowserssociety.org or by replying to this email.

We would like to recognize the amazing work and contribution from the members of the past Steering Committee that are no longer serving ADS;  Gary Patterson,  Charlene Steeves, and Audrey Stewart.  Also, our gratitude to Joanne Gallant-Chilton and Alan Chilton for managing and mastering the website and thus opening the opportunity for better promotion and outreach.

We acknowledge the ancestral and un-ceded territory of the Mi’kmaq, known as Mi’kma’ki.
We are all Treaty people.

Your Steering Committee,
Sydney Blum, Silvana Castillo, Teresa Giovanelli,  Michele Graveline, Angus MacDonald,  Laurence Marie and Kathy Putnam.

The sun is shining, our gardens are growing, sunsets are magnificent, life is good. The Universe continues to awe us with its wondrous beauties and mysteries. But we, as dowsers, know how to unlock those secrets and mysteries. We have been given all the tools we need to answer all those questions that will benefit all of mankind. We have the ability to journey into the past and to explore the many possibilities which could exist in the future. We also have a responsibility to the Universe to create a world that we would wish to visit on our next life in one of those future existences.
We all have been gifted with something special, we all have special talents and knowledge, we are all teachers and we are all students. We are the sum of each other. I have always been of the opinion that we are obligated to share our gifts and that to conceal those gifts would cause civilization to be slowed in its development. If not shared, some of this knowledge may be lost to Civilization forever. We are the sum of each other and we need each other to develop and survive, and we all, regardless of how insignificant we think our contributions may be, are necessary and all important. Together we have the opportunity to make a difference for the “Highest Good”.
The Atlantic Dowsers Society has once again been in the planning stages of another wonderful fall gathering where we can share and grow. For those who have attended in the past you will recall your experiences at this special annual gathering held at the Tatamagouche Centre in Tatamagouche, NS. We have once again secured these facilities as the location for our 2016 Fall Gathering, scheduled for Friday the 28th of October thru Sunday the 30th. For those that have not attended, the accommodations are clean and spacious, the meals are excellent, and the meeting rooms are bright and comfortable. There are safe areas to walk outside should you wish to drink in the gifts of nature, a hugging tree, and a Labyrinth to aid your spiritual journey. This is a time and a place where we can gather together safely and share, learn and grow.
We are still working on presenters for our program and we invite any who may wish to make a presentation to please contact the Facilitator at gcpraven@gmail.com to schedule a time slot. The main requirement is a demonstration of how Dowsing may be employed in the execution of your presentation, remembering the purest definition of Dowsing, “The search for an answer or information, using your institutive abilities and some mechanical device to indicate results.”
There will be something for everyone, from the novice to the most experienced. We will open with registration on Friday afternoon and greet everyone at a welcome on Friday evening for those of you who have never Dowsed, there will be a clinic to get you started. We’ll kick things off on Saturday morning with a series of presentations on Dowsing and their applications, we will share resource materials that will aid in your development, other Dowsers will share those things that work for them, there will be question and answer sessions, there will be a session on “Animal Communication” and at least one session on “Healing”. On Saturday evening there will be a round table discussion and we encourage all to participate. For those who may wish, there will be healing stations where you can experience various “Healing Modalities” and receive healing for any of your own particular afflictions. On Sunday morning we will continue with our presentations and conclude with a closing ceremony at Lunch time.
It is our hope to have our program completed by early July and at that time we will distribute the program along with Registration Forms. You will note at that time there will be an early bird discount as an incentive to register early. We encourage all to mark your calendars and to talk it up with a friend who may benefit through this experience. We also remind you to visit our Website at https://atlanticdowserssociety.org/ as well as our facebook page, Atlantic Dowsers Society.
Looking forward to meeting you all in October.
