"A day for the Planet and Humankind"
Let us revive our old sacred sites !
Hello All,
Our peace and healing ceremony is really taking off! You are all brilliant!
As always, some will take part from home, some will head out into the countryside to find a place of power,some will stay on their own, and some will organise small groups with family or friends - all of which is wonderful and will contribute to the success of the event.
But for those who don't want to be on their own and would prefer to be part of a larger group, I'm delighted to announce three get-togethers!
1.) For everyone in the North German region, Frank and Anke have always organised very powerful, very intense and very atmospheric gatherings, which were followed by celebrations and singing. This time, they found their ideal meditation spot for "Sacred Groves" yesterday.
It is actually situated in a beautiful, secluded grove right next to the 'Steenberg' megalithic site in Sandhatten.

Make sure you arrive in good time (around 5.00 pm)!

2. The "Council of Grandmothers" invites you to another important and beautiful venue. They have organised some fantastic events in the past, for example at Hambach Castle! This time, they're starting earlier, whilst the rest begins at 6.00 pm. This will certainly broaden the scope of thought and make it more lasting.
We, the Council of Grandmothers of Hohlen Fels, came together in 2009 as representatives of powerful circles that feel connected to the traditions of ancient Europe. We have joined forces to pick up the thread on the path towards a civilisation in which politics and spirituality go hand in hand.
Our deepest passion is our love for all living things and our responsibility towards our planet and future generations. We have set out this passion in our 13 guiding principles, to which the stone circle in the Heilbronn Forest is dedicated.
Every two years, we gather here to connect with this powerful place and to share experiences with like-minded people, to bring the words of power to life and reinforce them, and to sing, dance and celebrate together.
When? On Saturday 25 July 2026 at 3 pm MESZ (=1pm UT) Where? At the stone circle in Heilbronn Forest.
Untergruppenbach motorway exit near Heilbronn. Then head towards Stettenfels Castle, continuing towards the Lutz Siegle Hut. Car park at the edge of the forest. We'll put up signposts to the stone circle. Approx. 10-15 mins walk. The meet-up will only take place in dry weather.

Make sure you're there on time! (around 12.00 am UT)
3. In north-east Hesse, on the slopes of the Hoher Meißner near Germerode, there is a gathering at the Germerode stone circle.
Simply enter Germerode Stone Circle into Google Earth and Google Maps, then plan your route. Please park only at the sports ground in Germerode. From there, it's about a 15-minute walk up the hill. There is also a motorhome parking area in Germerode. In the attached screenshot, you can see the footpaths leading up to the stone circle marked in light blue, and the possible access road in dark blue.
The farm tracks are reserved for agricultural machinery only. However, anyone who is unable to walk the footpath for health reasons, may drive to the stone circle by car at their own risk, but the car must then be parked in such a way that the track remains clear for tractors and harvesters.
In the next update, I'll send you the proposed programme for the ceremony, wherever you happen to be on 25 July. It's important that we all do the same thing at the same time, because the greater our impact will be.
Joachim
We are all connected!
