ROCK OF THE FAIRIES
The Dolmen of La Roche-aux-Fées is one of the most remarkable megalithic monuments in France, located in Essé, Brittany. Dating from around 3000 BC, it is a vast passage tomb consisting of more than 40 massive stones arranged to form a long funerary passage, some weighing up to 45 tons. Its name means "Fairy Rock," referring to local legends that it was built by fairies during the night.
La Roche-aux-Fées is considered a powerful energetic site, aligned with the celestial bodies. Its orientation corresponds to the winter solstice sunrise, suggesting its use in ancient solar rites and as a calendar for agricultural or ritual purposes. The dolmen is often considered a "portal"—a sacred gateway between worlds.

The dolmen is often considered a "portal"—a sacred gateway between worlds—and some spiritual practitioners claim it promotes meditation, inner vision, and communication with higher realms or Earth spirits.
In modern spiritual circles, particularly among followers of Earth spirituality or New Age teachings, the dolmen is considered to have a planetary mission: it acts as a node in the Earth's energy grid (sometimes called "ley lines" or "Earth meridians"). As such, it can be considered the guardian of the ancestral wisdom of the Earth, the guarantor of harmony between human consciousness and natural forces, and a point of reception and transmission of cosmic energy to contribute to the spiritual evolution of humanity.
