Hi I found your web-site and thought I should bring up Monterey and Santa Cruz Counties in California. This area is part of a very LARGE spiritual nexus and is also part of a “hell mouth” the doorway to many hell dimensions. I lived there as a teenager and at times throughout my adult life. Many locations were used for many types of magickal practices in the 80’s to include satanic rituals. My friends and I would go out to Arroyo Seco, (just outside of Salinas) the day after Halloween. It always had a very eerie feeling to it. We also would find animal remains inside of fire pits from the night prior. We nicknamed this place “the deveil’s playground” due to the satanic rituals, the eerrie feelings and the shadows that would run around there. The mystical energy has always been strong but in the late 90’s to present that energy turned very dark. The violence there has escalated due to gang activity, alot of dead sea life, the birds are now psychotic and attacking people and even vehicles. Though the area is known for it’s fog, the last time we were there, the fog/cloud cover would last most of the day and the sun would only break through for a few hours a day. It wasn’t always this bad. The environment always changes to reflect the energy of the environment. Santa Cruz has also always had a very mystical energy to it as well and the people back in the 80’s reflected this. Many New Agers, satanists, vampires, just a huge mixture of spiritual and magickal beings. There is no specific location, as spiritual nexus can span for miles and seems to be growing in a darker form in this area. Within this nexus are many vortexes and portals, some over the ocean off of the coast, spanning from Carmel to Marina, but concentrated in Pacific Grove to Monterey, many in Arroyo Seco mountains. These spiritual nexuses are usually a concentration of magickal and/or mystical energy which will always contain several vortexes and portals withing it as people tap into this energy and open several of them up and never close them. One of the reason’s why this area has gone to hell, literally. I just thought I would share that with you. Happy Hunting! – Angel
