Welcome to Mid-Atlantic Geomancy (MAG) Geomancy explores the realm where human consciousness meets and dialogues with the Spirit of the Earth. It empowers the harmonious interaction between person and place, and can enhance spiritual growth.                                           Powerpoints in Time While Geomancy honours the spirit of place, it also honours its intersection with the Spirit of Time. We honour all spiritual paths with heart, and so, we would begin by recognising that different paths see different days as special. On these islands, the builders of Stonehenge honoured the Summer Solstice, at Newgrange, they honoured the Winter Solstice, but all spiritual paths and world religions hold different days as special. You are looking at a completely revised Mid-Atlantic Geomancy.  We have moved to a new Internet Service Provider, rewritten the <.html>, and have added new material - especially a section on Dyslexia and Dowsing and its connection with Geomancy.  Also, you can now read this entire website formatted for both cell phones and iPads, so it will be much easier to read on these devices.                           Geomancers I Have Gnown I have been a dowser and student of geomancy since the late fifties when my mother taught me to locate the pipe that brought Town water into our home in Greensboro, Vermont.  The man who taught her how to dowse was Terry Ross, and he later became my mentor as in dowsing and seeking the Earth Energies.  The major turning point happened in 1969, when I went to a site called Claendar II in central Vermont to see the Summer Solstice Sun rise from an astronomical platform which is aligned with a standing stone, and the sun rolls up the side of a hill behind it on the horizon..  I never saw the Sun rise that morning because I was in the Calendar II Chamber which is oriented towards the WInter Solstice sun rise, and I had what can only be called a mystical experience when over twenty white-robed people suddenly appeared inside the chamber, and none had come through the door at the front of the chamber!  (You can read more of this pivotal event in my book Spiritual Dowsing).  In any event, This started me on a path that I have been following for the past forty-five years learning to be a geomancer.  I have just finished a long project I call "Geomancers I Have Gnown," and I invite you to join me for a visual tour of the geomancers who have influenced and directed my life.                                 Using Material From This Site Please understand that all material - images, graphics and text - on Mid-Atlantic Geomancy is copyrighted ©; however, I am open to allowing you to use certain graphics and small bits of text IF you ask This email address is being protected from spambots.

It's easy to get started creating your website. Knowing some of the basics will help.

What is a Content Management System?

A content management system is software that allows you to create and manage webpages easily by separating the creation of your content from the mechanics required to present it on the web.

In this site, the content is stored in a database. The look and feel are created by a template. The Joomla! software brings together the template and the content to create web pages.

Site and Administrator

Your site actually has two separate sites. The site (also called the front end) is what visitors to your site will see. The administrator (also called the back end) is only used by people managing your site. You can access the administrator by clicking the "Site Administrator" link on the "User Menu" menu (visible once you login) or by adding /administrator to the end of your domain name.

Log in to the administrator using the username and password created during the installation of Joomla.

Logging in

To login to the front end of your site use the login form. Use the user name and password that were created as part of the installation process. Once logged-in you will be able to create and edit articles.

In managing your site, you will be able to create content that only logged-in users are able to see.

Creating an article

Once you are logged-in, a new menu will be visible. To create a new article, click on the "Submit Article" link on that menu.

The new article interface gives you a lot of options, but all you need to do is add a title and put something in the content area. To make it easy to find, set the state to published.

Template and modules

The look and feel of your site is controlled by a template. You can change the site name, background colour, highlights colour and more by editing the template options. In the administrator go to the Template Styles and click on My Default Template (Protostar). Most changes will be made on the Options tab.

The boxes around the main content of the site are called modules. You can change the image at the top of the page by editing the Image Module module in the Module Manager.

Learn more

There is much more to learn about how to use Joomla! to create the web site you envision. You can learn much more at the Joomla! documentation site and on the Joomla! forums.
