“Wine brings to light the hidden secrets of the soul, gives being to our hopes, bids the coward flight, drives dull care away, and teaches new means for the accomplishment of our wishes."

― Horace, Roman lyric poet

In the dimly lit corridors of history, where the echoes of the Knights Templar still linger, a virtual sojourn awaits, where the elixir of life meets the vine's nectar. Join me on an enigmatic Zoom journey, where the secrets of the sacred order intertwine with the ancient art of winemaking. This ZOOM Xmas special, part lecture and part a journey of discovery for the senses, will feature a joint project of a wine with an esteemed colleague of mine, Andy Godts, the Grand Officer of Belgian Civilian Templar Order OTAC and founder of Dos Templarios Belgium, importer of fine wines, beers and spirits from the Templar lands of Tomar, Portugal but also Czech Republic and France. Step back in time with us and revisit history while we delve into some of the mystical connections between the Knights Templar and wine, unlocking the cryptic codes that have lain dormant for centuries.

As we embark on this virtual quest, imagine a moment suspended in time when the Holy Grail, that elusive vessel of myth, intersects with the very essence of wine. A resurrection of an ancient vintage, whispered about in the Grail romances, will take center stage. Prepare to sip from the cup of history as we explore a sacred Templar elixir and decode the hidden messages within the bottle of the wine that I have resurrected for you all, revealing a vintage that transcends time itself. Discover our Sacred Templar Elixir, connected to Mary Magdalene and Jesus; this authentic historical relic and artisan wine has been lovingly made exactly as it was during the reign of the Knights Templar. Containing some of the herbs and ingredients the Knights Templar grew, this antique wine was known for its healing properties and as an aphrodisiac.

Join us on this 26th day (day’s numerology, eight (8), a Templar number of eternity, resurrection), as we raise our digital chalices to a Zoom encounter with the Knights Templar, where the wine flows as freely as the secrets of the ages.

Please note that this talk WILL be recorded, attending the talk implies acceptance with this. Those who purchase a ticket will receive a link to the recording shortly which will remain active for 2 weeks for their own private use, so if you cannot attend in person due to time-zone constraints, you will still be able to watch it.

BIOGRAPHY

Helena B. Scott is a writer, historian, and linguist who speaks several languages as well as a mental and light trance medium, psychic investigator and wellness/ spirituality coach. She specialises in: secret history and the occult, sacred geography and ancient energies (Tantric background), Gothic literature and art history, Jungian psychology, spirituality, magic and the paranormal.

Through psychometry, the clairs, automatic writing, dowsing, tarot cards and light trance as well as traditional research, Helena attempts to solve mysteries and investigations, uncovering events purposely omitted, buried by the veil of time and history. Past collaborations over two decades include police and crime-related investigations as well as psychical research in haunted historic properties with parapsychology academics / paranormal investigators. Her last published work (a factual revisionist account and interactive occult book on Ireland’s most haunted house), Loftus The Hall of Dreams features striking photography by Steve Meyler (New Scotland Yard’s Crime Academy former head of forensic photography). Much like a crime-scene investigation but written as a Gothic story, this unique work is supported by both historical and psychical research. Helena also provides podcasts and workshops on spirituality and the paranormal while offering lectures / presentations and private consultations in many aspects of the paranormal and the occult, including property profiles/energy clearings and spirit communication.

In addition to having studied a BA in Law, with History, Anthropology, and Archaeology, Helena regularly lectures on and attends conferences/workshops/courses in these areas, and earned a Diploma in the history of magic, witchcraft, and the occult at the Imperial College London. Helena holds a Diploma in Psychic Development and various diplomas from the London College of Psychic Studies and earned a Diploma in Jungian Psychology, having also trained in archetypal psychology with Laurence Hillman. Furthermore, she has trained in psychospiritual counselling and mediumship with leading UK spiritual wellness coaches and mediums, including trance medium and psychic detectives Ann Theato and Tony Stockwell as well as at the Arthur Findlay College for the Advancement of Psychic Sciences and the London College of Psychic Studies (est. 1884), whose events she continues to attend as a member for many years. She is also a member of the legendary Ghost Club (est. 1862), the world’s oldest research association on paranormal phenomena, and the Egypt Exploration Society (est. 1882). After living in many parts of the world, Helena has chosen magical Ireland as her permanent home.
