Do your legs feel funny or tremble when standing in stone circles?

Hello Dominic
I experienced the sensation of ‘legs trembling’ at Callanish which was down to the fact it was very cold with a biting wind and my coat wasn’t warm enough. Had the same experience at Avebury once or twice and other stone circles too when I’ve been cold, wet or hungry. I imagine your question is not about being cold and wet though.
I’ve been to Boscawen-un where I did experience a sense of euphoria, no trembling involved, which was down to several factors - the achievement of finding my way there by foot, the bright elemental weather of a sunny April afternoon, the pale moon overhead in daylight. I’ve also had similar experiences at other stone circles such as the Ring of Brodgar and Castlerigg - in all cases there has been sunlight, a warm wind, and a walk involved.
Probably not much help but good luck with your project.

I am doing some research for a television programme on the Merry Maidens and Boscawen-un stone circles in Cornwall. I am looking for anyone who has experienced a strange sensation in their legs (shaking or trembling) when standing in stone circles in the UK (doesn't have to be the ones in Corwall necessarily). If anyone has experienced these kinds of sensations or any other strange sensation I would be extremely interested in hearing from you with a view to taking part in the programme. My email address is; [email protected]. Many thanks! Dominic

Seriously Dominic, apologies if I sounded dismissive in my other post - what phenomena are you attempting to demonstrate.
There has been discussion in the past about the 'energy' given off by certain types of rock - white quartz being one of them. There is white quartz stone at Boscawen-un. I imagine there are some intensely sensitive individuals out there who can pick up vibrations that others don't experience. Perhaps you could say a bit more about your work - I would be interested.

I have a few knee tremblers in the back of the cinema when I was much much younger but then that's another story.

If we are talking about feelings outside the normal human senses then I think I am correct in saying most people on this forum do not sit easily with people who claim to have senses/abilities that do not fall into those scientifically recognised to be used by a 'normal' person. And those that do only talk about it if prepared to risk the ridicule of those that don't but who normally leave the forum after a short term and in humiliation.

I am open minded enough to talk about these things but only if the person is able to back up their argument with scientific facts and repeatable experiments to prove what they are saying. What I won't entertain are people who claim to have such abilities but are not willing to undergo such testing and expect sceptics to believe them purely on their say so.

Sorry if this seems like I have a closed mind, but the truth is I do not. A few months back I tried divining at the Rollrights and was totally surprised that it seem to more or less work. However, the reason for this could easily have been slight muscle movements as much as some sort of weird phenomenon going on. Unfortunately the conditions were such that I could not prove anything one way or the other and therefore I still remain a sceptic but one who is will to change their mind given the proof required.
