Log Text: This place is also very interesting from a geomantic point of view. The huge erratic on the western side of the forest path has a very high energy level. There is a place with no time and space, next to 3 menhirs. There is incoming consciousness from the universe, a little east of the other big erratic. There is a dancing place. I found 2 places with crossing Energy Leys, N to S and W to E. Others found more. Beautiful site.

Unfortunately, this stone no longer has a representative place, so I'm just going to show you this detail. Arrows point to the two safe and one insecure cup-marks.
