The Wellspring of Gaia is being built on a pristine 160 acres of land, located on Route 27, South of Lake Placid Highlands County, in Central Florida. This beautiful unspoiled land is divided as follows: 40 acres for the Wellspring of Gaia, a Holistic Institute, 40 acres for a community that will include about 35 individual homes and the other 80 acres will remain in their natural state with pathways for walking among the trees and communing with nature.

The Main building is a circular two story building. Attached on the South side are two rectangular buildings for lodging and on the North side is a square building which houses the Healing/Spa area and the Conference/Seminar area. The Main building will house the Lobby, business office, dining room, the Tea Room and gift shops. A water fountain, located in the center, can be viewed from the second story and from many parts of the building. There is a large wraparound patio onto which the dining room, the Tea Room and the gift shop opens up to, providing a spectacular view of the waterfall and the pond behind the Main building. |
This long pond (shown above) is serpentine in shape extending over 20 acres of land and in its meandering creates four large semi circles/cauldrons, each having their own energy and are dedicated to various activities. One will house an Open Air Temple, another a Medicine Wheel, another will be the Ritual/Ceremonies area with a fire pit in the center, the other will be a Crystal garden dedicated to my dear friend and spiritual teacher.
In addition to these four areas, there is an open clearing, bounded by Oak trees and Palmetto plants, forming a circle that will be dedicated to the Lady of Tradition, the Lady of Love and Compassion, the Goddess Quan Yin. There is a Faerie section that I will write about at a later date. There are many other areas for walking, contemplation, meditation and solitude, that will be displayed in the photo gallery for your viewing.
Now let's talk about the functions, in addition to the amenities that you will encounter at the Wellspring of Gaia.
The Wellspring of Gaia is a unique setting, a place of Beauty, Solitude and Enchantment, “where the Earth loves herself," a place were it is safe for a person to connect or reconnect with their Soul and Spirit. A place “where Love is safe and it is safe to love” and one can experience the love of the Goddess. A place were the Mineral Kingdom, the Plant Kingdom, the Animal Kingdom, the Human Kingdom, our Faerie friends and our star brothers and sisters can cohabit in peace and harmony with each other. In the beauty of the land, the solitude of the gardens and the mesmerizing effect of the water of the ponds (there are six ponds throughout the Land) one will be able to dream their dreams and making visions, knowing that they have the power to create and manifest them.
At the Wellspring of Gaia, once again, Faeiries and Humans can work together at bringing peace and harmony to the Earth that they share and love. Healers can practice their healing modalities while supporting each other in the resonance of a partnership that fosters respect, trust and brings abundance to all.
My dream is that the Wellspring of Gaia can be a microcosm of the New World where Magicians, Teachers, Healers, Sages, Dreamers, Light Workers, Earth Keepers from all over the world will join in celebrations, in rituals, in magic, in dreaming, with their seen and unseen friends and allies, in the co-creation of the New World.
Where are we now with the manifestation of the Wellspring of Gaia.
We have a contract with the Architect, Edward Pilkington, who has designed the Wellspring of Gaia, and will be submitting the buildings plans for approval. We have a contract with Polston Engineering Inc. and the following has been accomplished: Primary plans for roads and placement of the buildings have been approved. Plans for drilling the wells have been approved and drilling. The completed Engineering plans have been submitted for final approval, so the construction of the Wellspring of Gaia can begin. Plans for the waste management were submitted and are awaiting approval.
