The ritual of the fight between two male deer when they become adults. Biologists call it comment fighting. With their antlers the big deers demonstrated their supremacy for the future offspring. There, hidden among the bushes and shrubs, I observed a fight between rivals that could continue for hours. When I saw them facing each other, I thought they might kill each other.

Many people claim that such places exist on Earth and are considered to be magical places where people can not only capture the present energy, but also use it to empower their faculties, heal illnesses and open up to other realms of existence. One aspect of the energy vortices that I do not fully understand, or at least find very difficult to believe, is the concept of the polarity of energy that becomes manifest in such places. In my opinion, those who claim the existence of these invisible energetic vortices, want to give it a scientific and physical appearance since there are different physical manifestations where energy divergence occurs. For instance, in the magnetism there is always a positiv and negative pole. Equally, such an energetic difference can been seen in the electricity. In addition, there is another argument from the hermetic tradition which is the law of polarity contained in the book of the Ky
