We are sure that many Companions of Dion Fortune are currently experiencing strong emotions regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It has been suggested that Dion Fortune’s ‘Glastonbury Tor’ meditation might be used, or adapted for use, to help alleviate the situation.
We do understand that each individual must find their own way to respond to the crisis as best they can, but at the same time we reiterate DF’s wise insistence that our invocation of the powers of Light, Love and Unity should never be directed to any specific location, or towards achieving a specific purpose. Directing energy into a potentially catastrophic situation can go very wrong, no matter how good the intention to heal.
The role of magical groups and individuals is to align their consciousness with the powers of Light and Love to strengthen their effectiveness, but then to maintain complete ‘spiritual detachment’ so that we do not interpose our personal will or desire. This enables those powers - guided by the great innerworld Beings who have profound knowledge of the path of evolution for our planet - to be used according to Divine purpose.
Love and Light to All
Peter Nascien

In the following posts you will find shared thoughts, questions and experiences from those who have undertaken the meditation since we included it on this website.
You can find a full description of the meditation by clicking on the 'Authored Articles' heading above, or from the main menu on the Home page. You will also find, below, various suggested additions to the meditation that have come through as the work has progressed.
Many folk have taken part in this meditation since Dion Fortune first wrote it, She circulated amongst her magical group (known then as the Fraternity of the Inner Light) during the 2nd World War in order to mediate the powers of light and love to the nation. We have introduced it again because we believe that the meditation, its symbolism, and the ideas it puts forward, are equally valid in our present times. We invite you to share in this group work.
Originally the meditation was undertaken by the members of the Fraternity of the Inner Light from 12.15 to 12.30 each Sunday morning. Later, the meditation, together with weekly comments and guidance, was posted out to associates and friends of the Fraternity all over the country, and they joined in the meditation at the same time. Our experience is that there is still a certain power to be felt during this particular time on a Sunday morning but please don't be deterred if this isn't a good time for you! It is absolutely fine to do the meditation whenever you can, and any contribution you make, whether regularly or just occasionally, will have a beneficial effect not only on your own Self but within the Mind and Soul of our land and nation.
With all good wishes,
Peter Nascien

Hello Everyone,
Having read through the Glastonbury Tor Meditation last night, I wonder if someone could clarify whether I am to choose a topic from the list or work through from the start to end. I wasn't clear with the instructions in item 2.
Many thanks
