VORTEX SITES:

When one seeks healing, one also receives messages from spiritual guides.

 

PRIMARY ENERGY CENTERS: EARTH CHAKRAS

(see also Becker and Hagen's Planetary Grid System)

 

Mountain Chakras (Energy centers): (eg.vile vortices)

Root: Ararat

Navel: Neblina

Solar Plexus: Kilamanjaro

Heart: Haleakala

Throat: Shasta

Brow: Everest

Crown: Fuji

 

Other Interpretations of Chakra Sites:

The planetary chakra system alternates/changes according to a predetermined/particular timing (eg.celestial influence; Earth spin); (sim.vile vortices).

 

Central Hermetic Site: (primary electro-magnetic geo-cosmic connection)

Etheric Heart Center [sim.Tantric: Anahata Chakra] (internal and external operates in tandem):

·         Internal: Avebury Circle, Wiltshire, England (according to Richard C. Hoagland: site design geometry parallels megalithic site geometry at Cydonia, Mars)

·         External: Glastonbury Tor; current Mobile Focus (see geomancy)

Avebury Round Table of the Sun:

Avebury is considered a condensed planetary Round Table of the Sun, which is a model for understanding the independent/differentiated activities of the 12 tones (solar royal court) in one sound (ie.solar logos; sun king; individual component of galactic logos). The planetary Round Table is the central receptor complex for cosmic (solar system) energy, contributing to Gaia's star evolution paradigm (on the threshold of transcendence, attaining 4th dimensional awareness of anti-gravity). According to Sumerian cosmology/astrology, the solar system comprises of 12 planetary/celestial (revolving, rotating, interrelating) bodies, or cosmic notes, influencing 12 zodiac houses; establishing a triangular influence (stars-planets-geo points) upon life via Dragon (Knight) Lines (12) [sim.Babylonian: "dragon" (sir); British: title for knight (sir)] and the Avebury Round Table of the Sun.

In summary, Avebury is calibrated by 12 tones, which are induced by solar (Earth's ecliptic through the 12 zodiac houses; 12 months) and galactic (Sun's ecliptic through zodiac; zodiac age = 2160 years; precession of equinoxes) ecliptics.

 

Cradle of Civilization:

Ante-Diluvial Landing Corridor:

In the land [Sumerian: “home of the righteous ones” (Edin); Akkadian: “plain” (edinu); Biblical: Eden] between the two rivers (Tigris and Euphrates) [Biblical: “abundant” (Pishon) and “which gushes forth” (Gihon)], the landing corridor was laid out like an arrow (45° NW), entering from the headwaters of the Persian Gulf (most abundant source of petroleum; Sumerians had names for the 9 bituminous substances: petroleum, crude oils, native asphalts, rock asphalts, tars, pyrogenic asphalts, mastics, waxes, pitches), and pointing to the twin peaks of Mount Ararat, the Near East’s most conspicuous landmarks. Five cities with specific function were established in five perfect places. The cities on the centerline of the flight corridor are separated at intervals of 6 beru (60km/37 mi.).

 

Earth Stations (Reflective with Seven Stations of Heaven on Nibiru’s Path):

1)   Eridu (Home in Faraway Built): first gold extracting facility at the edge of the Persian Gulf; abode of Ea; third ring from center [1r.Ea/Enki] (An Nasiriyah)

2)   Bad-Tibira (Bright Place Where the Ores are Made Final): metallurgical smelting and refining center; second ring from center on flight path [1r.Nannar]

3)   Laraak (Seeing the Bright Glow): beacon city to guide landing shuttlecraft; first ring from center on flight path, triangulating with the other paired beacon cities [1r.Ninurta]

4)   Sippar (Bird City): landing place; space port; second ring from center on flight path [1r.Utu]

5)   Shuruppak (Place of the Utmost Well-Being): medical center; first ring from center on flight path [1r.Ninhursag]

6)   Laarsa (Seeing the Red Light): beacon city; second ring from center [1r.Ea/Enlil]

7)   Nibiruki (Earth Place of Nibiru): mission control center (duranki); center [1r.Enlil]

8)   Lagash: beacon city paired with Laarsa; second ring from center [1r.Ninurta]

First established was Home in Faraway Built (Eridu), which functioned as the first gold extracting facility at the edge of the Persian Gulf, and abode of Enki. The spaceport was built at Bird City (Sippar), which was aligned on center with the flight corridor. Bright Place Where the Ores are Made Final (Bad-Tibira), the smelting and refining center, and Place of the Utmost Well-Being (Shuruppak), the medical center, was laid out on center, from the landing corridor’s entrance. Earth Place of Nibiru (Nibruki) [Akkadian: Crossing Place on Earth (Nippur)], served as the mission control center, located in the exact center of the landing corridor. At Nibiruki was a raised platform, Place of Earth’s Root (Kiur), with antennas, ascending to a secret communication chamber (from Earth to the Igigi), the holy of holies, the Dark, Glowing Chamber (Dirga) [sim.Hebrew: Ark of the Covenant], where vital star charts and orbital data panels, the Tablets of Destinies, were installed, and the Bond of Heaven and Earth (Duranki), a true axis mundi, was maintained. The structure became the prototype for all ziggurats and pyramids (eg.Tower of Babel) to come.

 

POST-DILUVIAL FLIGHT CORRIDOR: Triangulations of the Divine Grid (see fig.)

The post-Diluvial flight corridor adopted the same principles of triangulation as the antediluvial flight corridor. The masterful yet simple Divine Grid precisely arrayed by the Anunnaki, artfully combined basic geometry with natural landmarks. Mount Ararat is the northern landmark that anchors the flight corridor on center with mission control (Jerusalem) and the spaceport in Tilmun (Sinai). The southern line of the landing corridor connects the twin peaks of Ararat with the twin peaks of St. Katherine (Harsag) and Umm Shumar (Mount Moses), while the upper line of the landing corridor connects through landing platform at Baalbek and the pyramids (artificial twin peaks) of Giza and Heliopolis. Due the flat terrain of Egypt, artificial twin peaks were constructed where the northern line of the flight corridor crossed the 30th parallel (30° N Lat), which delineated a sacred division of air space. The Three Ways delineated the airspace (each spanning 60° Lat) between Enlil in the north (northpole to 30° N Lat), An in the middle over the equator (30° N Lat to 30° S Lat), and Ea in the south (southpole to 30° S Lat). The outer and inner perimeter circles about Mission Control (Jerusalem) designated the equidistant pairs of radial sites which utilized oracle stone installations for communication.

 

Diluvial Pivot for Focal Point of Central Flight Corridor:

1)  Mount Ararat: focal point of central flight corridor

· Highest Mount in Near East

· Post-diluvial landing place

 

Outer Circle:

2)  Giza/Heliopolis (An): Geodesic Beacon

· Outlines flight corridor

· Giza Pyramid, two companion pyramids, and sphinx situated on Baalbek-Ararat line

· Equidistant with Mount St. Katherine to Baalbek and Jerusalem

 

3)  Mount St. Katherine/Mount Umm Shumar: Geodesic Beacon

· Outlines flight corridor

· Highest peaks of Sinai

· Distinctive twin peaks

· Equidistant with Giza Pyramid to Baalbek and Jerusalem

 

Inner Circle:

4) Baalbek (Cedar Mountain): Landing Place

· Antediluvial platform of immense size

· Equidistant with Mount Sinai to Jerusalem

 

5)  Mount Sinai: Spaceport (see ‘Tilmun above)

· Situated in the intersection of central flight path and 30th parallel (gaze of the sphinx)

· Equidistant from Heliopolis and Umm Shumar

· Equidistant with Baalbek to Jerusalem

 

Center:

6) Jerusalem (Mount Zion): Mission Control

· Crossing point where the Baalbek-Mount St. Katherine line intersects with the flight path’s center line leading to the focal point of Mount Ararat

· The angle drawn from Jerusalem to Heliopolis and Mount Umm Shumar is exactly 45º

 

The Bible has glorified the divine connections between Jerusalem (Mount Zion), Baalbek (Crest of Zaphon), and Giza (Memphis). According to the Book of Jubilees, there were four Places of the Lord on Earth, which were created as holy places facing each other. Three of them were in the lands of Shem.

1) Garden of Eternity in the Cedar Mountain (Baalbek): the most sacred; dwelling of the Lord

2) Mountain of the East (Mount Ararat): not in the lands of Shem

3) Mount Sinai (Tilmun): center of the Sacred Desert

4) Mount Zion (Jerusalem): center of the Navel of the Earth

The ancient oracle sites of the Cedar Mountain, Mount Sinai, and Mount Zion, are situated at equal angles (11.5º) from the oracle site at Delphi, Greece. Furthermore, the oracle sites of Jerusalem and Siwa to Delphi correlate angularly (45º) with the oracle site arrangement of Mount St. Katherine and Heliopolis to Jerusalem, respectively.

SACRED SITES OF PREHISTORIC ANTIQUITY:

[Archeological and/or ancient religious/spiritual/sacred sites listed by continent, country, and then state/province, alphabetically. The data-list compilations were dependent on the information available/discovered.]

The following list catalogs archeological and/or ancient religious/spiritual/sacred sites, as possible candidates for electro-magnetic technologies via earth grid site position and celestial orientation (vortex site), listed by continent, country, and then state/province/city, alphabetically; nearby rivers, sacred mountain peaks, modern city/town/village location, and associated buildings are also incorporated. The data-list compilations were dependent on the information available/discovered.

Sacred site candidate-types include:

·         Megalithic sites (eg.ante-diluvian ziggurats/pyramids, temples, stone circles, standing stones, dolmens, cairns, brochs, rune/picture stones, stone ships, talayots, kurgans, nuraghe, underwater megaliths, petroglyphs, etc.; emphasized sacred site type- see [note 93])

·         Painted caves (European Neanderthal/Australian aboriginal)

·         Sumerian ziggurats (cradle of civilization)

·         Pyramids, mounds and cliff dwellings (eg.kiva)(Africa, Asia, Europe, Americas)

·         Phoenician-Greco-Roman stone pantheonic temples (Mediterannean, Europe)

·         Hindu-Buddhist temples (eg.mandirs, wats, candis, stupas, grottoes, caves) (Asia)

·         Muslim mosques (early Islamic world: Asia, Africa, Europe)

·         Judeo-Christian synagogues, churches, cathedrals, monasteries (Holy Land and Europe)

·         Fortifications (Celtic-Roman castrum)/medieval castles (Asia, Europe)

·         crop circles

[NOTE 86] Most pyramids, monuments, and megaliths were built on earth’s energy grid (aka. “ley lines”), which was known and considered in the ancient world. <it is a scientific fact that> Ley Lines (ie. Chinese geomancy called them “dragon lines”) are straight fault lines in the earth’s tectonic plates, which release powerful electro-magnetic energy <not recognized by science>. Ley Lines generate telluric currents in the land; certain geological topologies will magnify telluric current- where megalithic builders preferred to position their structures-technologies; where ley lines cross (conductivity discontinuities: place where one area of ground which has good electrical conductivity meets another area with lesser capacity for conductivity)- where ancient megalithic sites were established; the pre-dawn hours have heightened telluric wave energy, due to the daily changes in the earth’s geo-magnetic field (strongest in day, weakest at night; pre-dawn is the most dramatic change, or increase in the strength of telluric electro-magnetic energy; weaker field changing to stronger field); Induction physics: wherever there is a changing magnetic field, there is the generation of electric current; megalithic structures were technologies used to concentrate electro-magnetic energy; power-plants

 

This Vortex Site work in progress, an overwhelming task, intends to compile a data-list of archeological sacred sites of prehistoric antiquity, and superimpose their collective locations over various earth grid networks (which may vary in scope), in order to study their functional, geometrical, and harmonic relationships.

CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC:

[NOTE 54: Andis Kaulins’s speculations of standing stones as megalithic geodetic astronomical tools (“star stones”; megalithic star-stone alignments by region and site, and stone markings/carvings matching those pertaining alignments) in conjunction with his linguistic (esp.Gaelic, Latvian, Pharaonic) hypotheses are compiled for study; see http://www.megaliths.net; North Ecliptic Pole at Paris, North Celestial Pole near Orleans at 3117 BCE]

·         Agoza [MA](Neolithic; Lake Chad)

 

EGYPT: [MA: pyramids]

[NOTE 54: Andis Kaulins’s speculations of standing stones as megalithic geodetic astronomical tools (“star stones”; megalithic star-stone alignments by region and site, and stone markings/carvings matching those pertaining alignments) in conjunction with his linguistic (esp.Gaelic, Latvian, Pharaonic) hypotheses are compiled for study; see http://www.megaliths.net; North Ecliptic Pole at Paris, North Celestial Pole near Orleans at 3117 BCE]

[NOTE 75] Great Pyramid is the reduced embodiment of the dimensions <scale model> of the Earth (see Giza below): the base measurement (cubit) used in ancient navigation, taking into account the Earth’s wobble and the Precession of the Equinoxes (or Lunar-Solar Precession, or the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun on the Earth’s equator causing its wobble) reflects in the Great Pyramid of Giza; Plato refered to the Earth as the “sphere within the sphere” (precession of constellations); the rate of precession was measured <in calibrations of 12> with an instrument which resembles a ringed cross; Plato described the Earth as a “12 pathced leather ball”; a zodiac age (2160 years) = 1/12 the Platonic Year (25920 years), or one complete Earth wobble cycle

[NOTE 76] Thoth is the patron deity of weights and measures, and the <measurement of the> moon; Essenes measured the lunar cycle; the moon is the only celestial body with a retrograde rate measurable with the human eye; according to Plato (descriptions within the works, Timaeus and Critias), Atlantis was destroyed 9000 years (or lunar cycles/months) before his time (ie. solar calendar: 10000 BCE; lunar calendar: c. 1500 BCE; perhaps used more widely in ancient world; actual time designation <solar/lunar> could have been lost in the translation of 4 historical renderings coming to Plato); Antikythera mechanism (dated- 1st c.BCE?) was recovered in the Antikythera ship wreck; it is an ancient analog computer (w/bronze gears; 2 concentric scales: Greek solar cycle and Egyptian Lunar-Sothic cycle) designed to calculate astronomical <solar, lunar, planet> positions (Crichton Miller)

 

[NOTE 79] The invasion of the Sea Peoples (Atlanteans? seemed to come from northern and western Atlantic- Germany, Denmark, Holland), fighting major naval battles against Egypt, during the New Kingdom; who the Sea Peoples were and where they came from is considered a mystery to academia; their naval migrations (through the Straight of Gibraltar) were prompted by rising sea levels (3’/year for 100 years); the Egyptians defeated the Sea Peoples, and consequently settled around Greece, Turkey, and Lebanon; submerged port cities off the coast of Egypt near Alexandria: Heracleon and Menuthias (another son of Poseidon); the sons of Poseidon- Atlas, Menuthias, Gades, etc. were building port cities of their maritime trade empire around the world (from Sidon to Gibraltar and beyond), with the ancient mapping knowledge <of Atlas>

 

[NOTE 85] 25,000 mi. circle alignment (100km wide) of ancient megalithic sites (pyramids): Peru- Paracas drawing, Nazca track, Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu, Cusco, Sacsayhuamnan, Paratoari; Africa- Mali- Dogon lands; Algeria- Tassili N’ajjer; Egypt- Siwa oasis, Giza Great Pyramid, Petra; Mesopotamia- Ur, Persepolis; Pakistan- Mohenjo Daro; India- Khajuraho; Burma- Pyay; Thailand- Sukhothai; Cambodia- Angkor Wat, Preah Vihear; Easter Island; alignment: is at an angle of 30° from the equator; similarly, Giza is located on the 30°N Lat parallel, the line defining the Neutrality Zone; eventhough the sites are from different historical periods, most were built upon more ancient sites; the circle is equal in length to the equator; if the line is taken as the equator, then the north pole would be in present day Alaska; distance matching: Giza-Nazca = Giza-Teotihuacan; Angkor Wat-Nazca = Mohenjo Daro-Easter Island; Giza-Easter Island = 10000 x F; (Angkor Wat-Giza) x F = Giza-Nazca; (Giza-Nazca) x F = Nazca-Angkor Wat;

 

[NOTE 86] Submerged Cities: there are 200+ sunken cities in the Mediterranean alone (Childress); 10,000,000 sq. miles (approx. size of Europe and China) of <costal> land was flooded; and rubbed from the record (Hancock)

 

[NOTE 87] Atlantis was an urban civilization with large naval forces that conquered other parts of the world; accd to Greek texts, Atlantis was connected with extra-terrestrial beings; founded by Poseidon (Sumerian: Ea/Enki), who built Atlantis to protect his demigod lineage

 

[NOTE 91] mythological thinking for astronomical reality

[NOTE 92] Band of Peace sites: all on the ancient Nile river bed; all visible from one site to the next; black granite floor tiles at the E part of site; astronomical ritual- Sirius drops below horizon (out of sight) for 70 days, which coincides with the flooding of the Nile; Star-Site correspondences: Orion’s Belt- Giza, Pleiades- Abu Sir, Leo- Heliopolis; sound healing harmonic resonance- site chambers harmonize w/human body cavities; older constructions are built of larger megaliths, while newer constructions are built of smaller megaliths;

[NOTE 93] megalithic temple sites (ie. pyramids, henges, etc.; usually in a series having star correspondence in plan; placed on ground where an unusual type of geology concentrates (magnifies intensity several fold) the regular daily natural electro-magnetic fluctuations that occur everywhere) are typically located on <global> ley lines (and where they cross- conductivity discontinuities: where greater line of current meets a lesser line of current), which conduct telluric waves/current of subtle Earth <electro-magnetic> energy (qi; prana); in Chinese tradition, only the emperor (illegal for commoners) could be buried on a dragon line (aka. ley line); megalithic temple function- power plant; key hours are the pre-dawn hours (ie. 3-5am; hour of Lung-tiger; when the weaker <magnetic> field changes to the stronger field most quickly; induction- changing magnetic fields generate electric current); the energy field fluctuates with the daily changes in the geomagnetic field (strongest during the day, and weakest at night); the  orientation of temples changed to match the precessional drift of the stars; alignment to stars indicates the tracking of the seasons (monsoons)- to arrive at a location when the lakes have water; temples are geometrical metaphors for the human body; sacred sites along W shore of the Nile, mark the position of the old Nile, and hence measure the migration of the Nile, about 8 mi. W-E;

TUNISIA:

[NOTE 67] The central city of Atlantis (destroyed c.10000 BCE? during global <deluge> cataclysm, or 1450 BCE? during the time of Moses and the Exodus), from the descriptions of Plato, is known to have 3 concentric canal rings, with a cross intersecting and canal emerging from the center point; which is symbolized by the ringed cross in Celtic and Christian traditions (sim. symbols: zodiac, sun; 2D symbol represents a 3D vortex experience- a stargate technology?); (William Henry)

 

[NOTE 68] Atlantis was a global <circum-navigating> civilization distributed all over the world, established on islands and coast lines; most active in the Mediterranean and Atlantic Ocean (outside and inside the Strait of Gibraltar, aka. “Pillars of Hercules”; see also NOTES on s. Spain); the deluge submerged Atlantis and its evidence for existence; an earlier phase of Atlantean prehistory was rooted in Mesopotamia; (Graham Hancock)

[NOTE 69] Atlantean trans-ocean ships (sim. 2500 BCE: Khufu’s ship; Greeks, Phoenicians), were more advanced than clipper ships, with navigator priests who read the stars to guide their path (eg.Atlas’s mapping method); Plato tells about a maritime war between the Atlanteans and the Greeks

[NOTE 74] <East-West> Navigation was possible through the measurement of time, or taking into account the Earth’s wobble, and the Precession of the Equinoxes; the Earth spinning on axis gave the appearance of the zodiac constellations moving along the horizon- the ancient navigator-priests knew the rate of zodiac movement, and hence knew longitudinal distances and designated measuring systems (see Giza, Egypt as an encoding of geometry, earth measurement)

GREECE: (Neolithic Bronze; Minoan/Mycanean)[Greek temples]<Cretan-Atlantis>

[NOTE 94] Crete is on the Mediterranean fault line; many Cretan-Minoan (ie. Atlantean) sites were destroyed by a cataclysmic earthquake and tsunami caused by a volcanic eruption on on Thira/Santorini (a major center of Atlantis) volcanic eruption (possible Atlantis site; Nibiru crossing)(c.1500 BCE; 1450 BCE: circa the emergence of Mosaic Hebrew alphabet- Exodus of Moses from Egypt; heiroglyp-phonetic shift)

[NOTE 95: According to Plato: Atlantis was destroyed in a single day and night, the land was swallowed by the sea; end of Atlantis description- new Atlantean center, Thira/Santorini, was destroyed by a volcano and tsunami, which lead to the destruction of Cretan-Atlantis (Cretan-Egyptian link: after destruction perhaps Crete petitioned trading partner Egypt <source of Atlantis myth> for aid); Atlantis had hot and cold water, plumbing;

[NOTE 96: 590 BCE: Greek statesman, Solon was shown inscriptions from 1450 BCE, describing an ancient civilization of great power, ruling all the lands W of Egypt; Atlantis story becomes Greek folklore, until in; 370 BCE: Plato’s version of the Egyptian tale of Atlantis; Solon must have invented the name ‘Atlantis’ because the Egyptians called the people from this ancient world by another name, ‘Keptchu,’ [Egypt.: ‘people of Crete’]; then Greece conquers Crete

ITALY: (Magna-Graecia)[Roman temples; cathedrals]

Notes per Christianization:

[NOTE 0] It is common for cathedral towns to have castles or fortresses. Most cathedrals are built over older cathedrals or Greek/Roman pagan temples, which echo Canaanite-Egyptian prototypes (ie.cross, tau plans), ultimately rooted in ante-diluvian Sumeria.

[NOTE 1] shifting rivalry for the purpose of indigenous policy unification: Egyptian-Hittite; Greece (Delian League; Peloponesian War; Magna Graecia)-Persia; Rome-Saracens; Christian-Muslim; NATO-terror

[NOTE 2] shifting religion for the purpose of maintaining the metaphysical structures; anthropocosmic encoding within mythos-parable: 12 dieties of pantheon = 12 disciples of Jesus

[NOTE 3] there is an ongoing progressive deceptive-belligerent agenda to centralize global political power, perpetually imposed by the pantheistic-monotheistic religions of “civilization” over the nature practice of indigenous people

[NOTE 4] cathedrals are usually located either/and/or in the heart of an early town, apex of a hill, placing it as the tallest edifice conduit

[NOTE 5] there is much earthquake/volcano damage in Italy throughout Italy; many cathedrals were damaged

[NOTE 6]  the Florentine Renaissance indicated increased annunaki traffic

 

[NOTE 7] most Roman Catholic Cathedrals (diocese) emerged within pre-existing Roman settlements; furthermore building up Greco-Roman temples

[NOTE 54: Andis Kaulins’s speculations of standing stones as megalithic geodetic astronomical tools (“star stones”; megalithic star-stone alignments by region and site, and stone markings/carvings matching those pertaining alignments) in conjunction with his linguistic (esp.Gaelic, Latvian, Pharaonic) hypotheses are compiled for study; see http://www.megaliths.net; North Ecliptic Pole at Paris, North Celestial Pole near Orleans at 3117 BCE]

POLAND: [mounds (kurgan/kopiec), stone circles and stelae, cathedrals, abbeys]

[NOTE 14] The Teutonic Knight Order (f.Acre, Israel in 1190, after the Knights Templar, and Knights of Malta/Hospitaller; originally an order which provided hospitals to pilgrims, later became a military order), holding allegiance to the Holy Roman Empire and the Roman Catholic Pope, invaded Baltic states (eg.Prussia, Pomerelia, Samogitia, Courland, Livonia, Estonia, Gotland, Dago, Osel, and Neumark; 1260-1410 CE), in a effort to subdue Baltic pagans and establish a monastic state. The monastic state went into decline after the Protestant reformation (c.1577 CE). In the 19th c.CE, the Teutonic Order, though in a state of suppression, was headed by the Hapsburg dynasty; revealing the connection, and possible farce-conflict between one of the illuminati banking families and the Roman Catholic Church. Why was Hitler shaking the Pope’s hand during WWII?

[NOTE 15] Neolithic Bronze Age cultures (utilizing mounds, and stone circles and stelae, animal sacrifice/Ashvamedha) were linked with Indian cultures through Scythia (bronze age chariot culture.

[NOTE 16] Major cathedrals located on ley line intersections, serving as royal necropolies, may have functioned as spiritual portals to a particular after-life inter-dimensional destination.

SPAIN: [MA] [dolmen; talaiot; Phoenician necropoleis]

[NOTE 81] Last ice age seems to have ended around 1500 BCE (coinciding w/Hebrew Exodus) when the sea level was rising (N. Atlantic) due to the melting of Ice Age glaciers, while the Nile, Euphrates, and Indus were drying out, causing mass migrations of peoples (including the Sea Peoples, or displaced Atlanteans, while their coastal megalithic civilization was being destroyed <submerged>; hydrology: waters cooled, decreasing evaporation and cloud density, hence the Ice Age ended and sea levels rose; warm ocean waters increase cloud density for an Ice Age (James Nienhuis)

[NOTE 83] the megalithic structures (discovered under water beyond modern coastlines) were not built underwater, but rather had to have been constructed before the oceanic level changes; (Childress)

[NOTE 82] Destruction of Atlantis: Plato describes that the Atlanteans had a divine essence within them that was being diminished over time; ‘Zeus sends his wrath from the center of the universe’; if the center of universe meant center of milky way galaxy, this may refer to active galactic nucleus phase (photonic belt), which could cause an Earth cataclysm (William Henry)

[NOTE 65] Submerged sites (in 100-200’ water) off the coast of Spain: W Gibraltar; Tarifa; Cadiz (Gades); Rota; Chipiona; Plato referred to as the ‘Pillars of Hercules’, gateway to Atlantis beyond the Mediterranean in the Atlantic Ocean; Atlantean? There are 200+ sunken cities (using megalithic Cyclopian construction; sim. Giza in Egypt, Stonehenge in Britain, Baalbek in Lebanon, and the <hermazo> dolmens of Spain) in the Mediteranean Sea, which is indicative of a cataclysmic flood (Childress), consequential of the polar ice sheets melting (Hancock; James Nienhuis).

[NOTE 66] Dolmens of S.Spain (Andalusia; Basque peoples) became the foundations for Roman construction near Rhonda, located near the source of the Guadiaro r., in the Sierra Morena mts., the most richest mining area in the ancient world w/depostis of gold, copper, silver, tin, lead, and mercury; source of wealth for Atlanteans? (accd. Plato) to trade with Minoans, Greeks, Canaanites, and Egyptians; Atlanteans would bring mineral deposits down the river to Seville; copper and tin are used to make bronze (ie. used for circum-navigating boat rivets in the ancient world); the Atlanteans were the dominant shipping and military power in the western Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic, ranging from Gibraltar to Cornwall, England, where there are tin mines and submerged sites (Avalon), and Scandanavia, and southward to France, Spain, and Portugal, Canary Is., Malta, Sardinia, eastward in the Mediterranean to Italy and Libya, and to the Americas, the Carribean, and New Foundland; these Sea Peoples followed trade wind routes around the basin of the Atlantic Ocean

[NOTE 77] Plato’s detailed description of Atlantis reflected in the Bible: Southern Spain and North Africa are also referred to as the Hesperides (supposedly mythological) [daughters of Atlas (man of maps- precession measurer), grand-daughters (nymphs) of Poseidon (means: ‘father Sidon’; Sidon was a son of Canaan, indicating that the Atlanteans originally came from the eastern Mediterranean, from the port city of Sidon, in the land of Canaan; Cadiz/Gades was also named after another son of Poseidon; Atlas’s father)]; Atlantean-Phoenician (Hesperide) base at Seville [Gk.: Tartessos; Biblical: Tarshish]; under penalty of death, the Phoenicians had to keep the trade routes (esp. Atlantic routes; Spain, France, Cornwall, Britain) a secret, where tin and copper trade was flourishing (David Childress);

[NOTE 17] The Knights Templar, emerged out of the Kingdom of Aragon; hence, with the founding fathers of the USA, being free mason- templars, the USA is the evolution of the Kingdom of Aragon.

[NOTE 18] The Renaissance is the consequence of the Christian crusading kingdoms via knight orders obtaining-understanding the mathematics of the Muslim-Arab-Moor-Seracen.

[NOTE 19] The revelation of Moses, the first phoenetic script-alphabet, seemed to have been best preserved-disseminated by the Ishkur-Baal-Dionysis worshiping, Canaanite-Phoenicians; which mirrored into Greek, and evolved into Latin, and branching into its derivatives (eg.English, Spanish, French). Language is a method of genetically programming thought. The alphabet-gematria encodes chromosomal data. Tone causes transmutation of DNA.

[NOTE 20] Where the martyr lies, the cathedral dies, with a crypt beneath over necropolei. The Roman Empire transformed into the Holy Roman Empire, after making saints out of their Christian martyrs. Christianity became the extension of Egyptian Theosophy (ie.afterlife, resurrection, trinity, etc.); the cathedrals (like pyramids) became the new sound technologies of the earth grid (ie. with: acoustical naves for hymn vibrations, steeple lightning rods, twin bell tower tuning forks, stained glass colored light revealing encoded information).

[NOTE 21] The crusades was like the modern space race to the moon, with the prize being the relics of Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem (Anunnaki mission control of the post-diluvial earth).

[NOTE 52: pertaining to astronomical sites: earthworks: tumulus (mound) represents a star; barrow represents a large star; cairn; standing stone; megalithic architecture]

[NOTE 53: Norse-Pharaonic Egyptian script similarities]

[NOTE 54: Andis Kaulins’s speculations of standing stones as megalithic geodetic astronomical tools (“star stones”; megalithic star-stone alignments by region and site, and stone markings/carvings matching those pertaining alignments) in conjunction with his linguistic (esp.Gaelic, Latvian, Pharaonic) hypotheses are compiled for study; see http://www.megaliths.net; North Ecliptic Pole at Paris, North Celestial Pole near Orleans at 3117 BCE]

[NOTE 55: There is an archeo-astronomical-geodetic correspondence between the Neolithic Megalith architecture (geomancy) and crop circle (geoglyph/agriglyph) location/formation, receiving the energy from stars and constellations, including sun, moon, and planets, through an intricate electro-magnetic (geo-energy) earth-grid meridian system; Hermetic Philosophy: “…as above, so below…”]

[NOTE 56: Possibile causes of crop circles: 1) Advanced and unknown  high-technology of: a) humanity (governments, or private groups; motives: i) stage an alien invasion or contact; b) extra/intra terrestrial advanced tech.; 2) Planetary geophysics; 3) Gaeia communication; geo-electro-magnetic energetic response; 3) Water (aquifer) technology in conjunction with the Neolithic earth grid megalithic star map; Questions: 1) Why Wiltshire? Stonehenge? Avebury?; 2) Avebury-Cydonia, Mars connection: mirrored geomancy; 3) Near Earth Grid Point 11 (Scotland)]

[NOTE 57: Crop Circle/Agriglyphs phenomena in the modern era began in 1890/1972; after launching of first Martian orbiter, Mariner 9, in 1971; now over 10,000 formations found in 29 countries; 1980-99: generally demonstrates genuine crop circle phenomenon; after 2000: crop circles are generally hoaxes; according to Colin Andrews (veteran researcher on the subject), most (80%) crop circles of 2000 were man made (hoaxes), while 5% showed Earth’s magnetic grid altered between 3-5°; first record of crop circles was in 1678]

[NOTE 58: Crop Circle medium: wheat, oilseed rape/canola, corn, barley, rye; sorghum, soybean, rice]

[NOTE 59: World Crop Circles: 1993: Holland, Hungary, Switzerland, USA< Canada, Japan, Australia, Russia, France; 1994: Czech Rep., Krasnoyarsk-Siberia; 2006: hoaxes appeared in France, Hungary, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy; 2007: Germany-18 hoaxes; Netherlands-12 hoaxes; Poland, Czech Rep., Switzerland hoaxes; Italy-22 hoaxes]

[NOTE 60: Crop circle anomalies: genuine cc appear on Earth meridians/nodes of electro-magnetic energy, as well as over aquiferous ground (commonly in chalk soil)- creating an electro-magnetic field in water; subtle manipulation of local gravity field (anti-gravitational affect); plants bent not broken-folded 90°; blown and elongated nodes, superficial charring; off-center ‘herringbone swirl plant lay; off-center magnetic N by 4°; higher radiation levels; generates dowsing confirmations for electro-magnetic energy; changes in the plants at a cellular level; soil dehydration; bright lights (spheres/orbs) observed- creating crop circles; ufo sightings; animals disturbed (sickness/barking) prior and during; electrical like noises; power outages; genuine cc-MHz range, while microwave generated cc-GHz range; done quickly and usually in the dark; military intervention/monitoring; pilgrims; psychedelic and/or various energetic affects on human psyche/energy]

[NOTE 61: Crop Circles are ‘natural’ manifestations of energy (electro-magnetic/EM/light and sonic wave frequencies conducted through local life/earth) in conjunction with water (aquifers); the primary motion of energy is in a spiral; in conjunction with water (aquifers; southern England has the deepest aquifers in the world); spinning/spiraling electro-magnetic energy (EM) w/in water creates an energy field]

[NOTE 62: Crop Circles appear in certain conditions: the Sun is near solar minimum (22-year magnetic cycle; Sun’s magnetic field reversal point in 2006, affects solar wind and its interaction with the Earth’s magnetic field, which crop circles utilize; hence a decrease in crop circles since 1998)]

[NOTE 63: Crop Circle applications: anti-gravity technology design; resonant healing; advanced mathematics (ie. 5 Euclidean geometry theorems; a 6th based on Pyolemy’s Theorem of Chords; harmonic manipulation of time- sound contributes to the generation of crop circles); enlightenment: awaken humanity through glyph/symbols generated by sonic vibration through the electro-magnetic earth grid (diamagnetic system), to manipulate the local gravitational field (anti-gravity) through spinning the flow of water]

[NOTE 64: Crop Circle hoax signs: 1) construction lines under flattened crop; 2) satellite microwave generated: toxic electricity causing illness, lingering for one day only (differing from genuine crop circle energy resonance which is still felt years after); 3) generated from inside out]
