A map of the world in 2025
The website linked to this newsletter - Dowsing.org.uk - has recently updated the self-descriptions of many UK local dowsing groups, and you are invited to check your own group's entry on the website for accuracy.
If a revision of your entry is needed, please trigger an update by emailing me at Info@CedJackson.org enclosing the update. You can do this at any time, but please ensure you have your group's approval.
You can also include details of forthcoming events which are open to the wider public, by including information which will appear under Dowsing.org.uk/Events. Just send me the information.
Given these changes, this is a good time to look at how dowsing in the UK presents itself through the website, to the wider world.
Over time, the whole of the website will be revised, starting with the Special Interest Groups.
Below I have attempted to set out some of the key issues which we face as dowsers.

Dowsing : Quantity and Quality
There is possibly more dowsing being undertaken at the present moment than when Adam were a lad.
As a profession there are few barriers to entry, and the range of accessible dowsing subjects is constantly expanding.
The menus on the website are as follows (beneath each one I have written a description of the content within):
Forum:
Created for Individual Dowsers who can come to together to discuss ideas, theories, practices on a range of topics, not limited to dowsing.
Local Dowsing Groups:
A page with a list of dowsing groups in the UK with any details provided, such as contact information and meeting times.
Special Interest Groups :
Which include Water, Earth Energies, Healing, Map Dowsing, etc. Other potential groupings which might at some point generate a future Special Interest Group, this includes Consciousness, and Remote Viewing, etc.

The Scientific and Medical Network
...and its journal Paradigm Explorer is a very interesting innovation, rather like like a cross between a New Age Group and an Oxford College.
To counter ossification as it ages, it has a 'youth wing' entitled New Paradigm Navigators.
Highly recommended.

Remote map dowsing on a computer
Below you will find a letter sent to me from Peter Taylor who is running courses on learning to dowse for water. If any other educational courses are being run, please get in contact - if there are enough courses, I'll start a new section of the website, dedicated to this topic.
------------
Dear Ced
It has come across to me that not many dowsers are able to do the remote map dowsing on the computer. Please can you add this in the next magazine you print.
I am promoting my teaching courses more next year which will include showing the attendees how I do the remote map dowsing survey using Google Earth. This enables me to dowse remotely any part of the world in any dowsing subject. Usually with the remote dowsing I can get approximately 20ft either side of the source that I have found using a remote map dowsing survey. It gives the client an idea of where to start the search when on site, instead of having to troll through all the land that they have. This saves time and money as it narrows it down to a given field area. The client can either do the search on site themselves or get a local dowser to do it for them.
The latest remote map dowsing survey I have done was in Thailand which is shown on my website with the client confirming the success of that survey.
If anyone would like to attend a teaching course on how to do remote map surveying they can contact me by email and we can arrange a day and time. I can do one to one teaching or group teaching of no more than 6 persons. I can send them details of my fee and what the teaching course involves.
My website is www.waterdowsing.co.uk
Let me know if you need any more information.
Kind regards
Peter Taylor

Earth Energies Zoom Meeting
This is a friendly group of dowsers, with an interest in Earth Energies, who get together on zoom. We meet on the second Thursday of each month from 7pm until about 9pm.
Usually a member or an invited speaker will talk about some dowsing they have been doing, or give a short presentation, and the discussion flows from there.
The success of the group has depended on the mutual respect of the participants and their willingness to keep the discussion to earth energies and closely related topics.
We have a website at http://www.earth-energy.group
If you would like to join us, please send us your name and email address. We will put you on the circulation list so that you receive the Zoom link each month and any notices or presentations that are circulated to participants. Write to...

Phil Rickman
It is with a great sense of personal sadness I bring you the news that the writer, Phil Rickman, has died.
Phil's books share many of the concerns which often face dowsers, such as the endurance of the flavour of dark deeds done at particular places in times past, which go on to influence those presently alive who 'bump' into them.
This can often bring great burdens to those who live in places subject to the imprint of past events.
In the west people suffering such afflictions have often turned to the church for relief. In fact there is a branch of the Church of England specifically for the relief of such suffering.
This is known as the Ministry of Deliverance, and those who practice therein are often referred to as practising the art of Spirit Release.
However Spirit Release, and Deliverance, is not restricted to the Church of England. It is widely practised in the west, and is sometimes listed as yet another alternative therapy.
Phil's books are gently fictionalised accounts of Deliverance as practised in the (actual) Hereford Diocese of the Church of England, by the (notional) Reverend Merrily Watkins.
A good one to start with - as did I - is "Midwinter of the Spirit".
Outside the Church of England, the role may also be undertaken by real people providing a real service to others. In current times one such group of people is known as the Spirit Release Forum. The SRF has a website at www.spiritrelease.org which you can explore.
