It was rainy and windy outside, but when I went inside, it was so peaceful and quiet. It felt amazing to be surrounding all around by stones. I felt connected to the stones. It is such a place of peace. This would be a good place to go if you needed to make an important decision and needed clarity. The energy inside the center is amazing and felt totally sacred to me. I highly recommend visiting inside alone. You have to squat and walk to get to the inside passage for part of the way.
