A
little bit of history
In
addition to the legends associated with Glastonbury, the Chalice
Well is often portrayed as a symbol of the female aspect of deity,
with the male symbolized by Glastonbury Tor. As such, it is a popular
destination for pilgrims in search of the divine feminine, including
modern Pagans. The Well is however popular with all faiths and in
2001 became a World Peace Garden.
Glastonbury,
a small town about 125 miles or 220 km west of London, is full of
myth and legend. In ancient times, Glastonbury lay in a triangle
with the enormous stone circles of Stonehenge and Avebury - between
them they formed a world energy-point. Great circle lines go from
Glastonbury to many sacred canters worldwide. Glastonbury has long
been a pilgrimage place, attracting travelers from far and wide.
It was a pilgrimage place in Druid times (2,000-2,500 years ago)
and further back in Megalithic times, 4,000 years ago. A prominent
site in town is the Glastonbury Tor (tor means rocky hill or peak).
The Tor has many legends connected to it. One says that it was the
location of King Arthur's stronghold. Another legend says that it
is the home of the Faery King and that the top of the Tor was a
place of fairy visions and magic.
Glastonbury is also believed to be the place known in Arthurian
lore as the Isle of Avalon. According to the legend, Arthur, after
being mortally wounded by Mordred, was taken by a sacred boat to
Avalon. And it is in Avalon that Arthur awaits the day when Britain
requires his services as the "once and future king".
