Off to the Printers! Seriously Strange 163

To confirm without further ado, Seriously Strange Issue 163 is now with the printers! We shall be continuing with the highest quality and content under the editorship of Kristian Lander, with a clean, distinct presentation worthy of a newstand publication.  

Packed inside the 52-pages a number of lead features, Dr. Simon Grace’s patience can finally be satisfied with the publication of his work, Geomantic Landscape Enhancement. This book offers the first systematic analysis of the St. Michael’s Line sacred nodes through the lens of feng shui, revealing sites that align with yin yang principles while others do not. Exploring potential British geomantic intentions, Grace draws parallels with well-documented Korean and Tibetan traditions, examining techniques such as earthworks, tree planting, and watercourse alterations to achieve harmonious energy flow.

Actor and storyteller Dylan Knight makes his ASSAP Seriously Strange debut, taking us into the Derbyshire Dales with Minister and the Fairies, examining how ghosts and folklore are interwoven with historical accounts.

Professor Rob Gandy’s feature graces the cover of this edition, delving into Nottinghamshire, particularly the village of Beckingham, where a tale of a great black dog prowling the roads unfolds. Faiths collide, and accounts differ. What exactly is stalking the history books?
