What Can Stone Circles And Megalithic Monuments Teach Us?
Author Copyright, Paulina Howfield, (Sept 2015)
All Stone Circles and Megalithic Monuments link into the energies of the cosmos. Many track the movements of the Sun and Moon, while some also align to Orion, the Pleiades, Cygnus, Alpha Centauri and Sirius.
These monuments and circles demonstrate the astronomical knowledge of our forebears, and their profound understanding of the movements of the heavenly bodies and constellations. They knew how to read time by the heavens and also knew much about their influences on daily life.
Their understanding involved more than just planting and cultivating in accordance with the movements of the Earth around the Sun. They could also calculate Eclipses and Solstices, and created these sites to display the movements of heavenly bodies in physical structures for thousands of years.
The Layout and Alignment of Megalithic Monuments
Megalithic monuments like Stonehenge, Avebury, Newgrange and Machu Picchu are famous for their layouts that display their connection to the cosmos. Others are known only to specific Indigenous communities, where particular people have been nominated to track the Solar and Lunar energies, maintain the wisdom of their forebears and practise ceremonies and rituals that keep the sites sacred.
In most places the true meaning of these circles and monuments has been lost. Like in the Four-Corners area of North America, where the ancient Anasazi created Kivas in Chaco Canyon. These buildings are aligned ‘north-south’ and ‘east-west’ and even to this day, enable the Sun’s rays at Solstice, to travel a path along the stones and shine onto hand-drawn petroglyphs.
Who Designed The Stone Circles and Monuments?
There is debate as to who created the many stone circles and monuments and aligned them to the heavens. Was it ancient aliens? Was it the Giants mentioned in myths and biblical tales? Was it our human ancestors who had knowledge and skills that were lost in floods and other cataclysms? Or perhaps it was something we haven’t yet considered.
Clairvoyant Interactions
Discovering the truth about why these monuments were constructed, and by who, is generally left to scientific, archaeo-astronomical and archaeological research and investigation. Yet there are other ways to ‘tap’ into the information and wisdom of these places and that is through clairvoyant visions and psychic investigation. It involves interacting with and learning from the devic realms, the geo-mythic imprints, the visionary geography and the cosmic forces that still reside in such places. This way of interacting helps us connect to the Earth and her cosmos, and also gain a more metaphysical understanding of what these sites are really for.
So this Vernal Equinox you may wish to meditate with a Stone Circle or Monument. As you attune and connect with the energies present, consider the ancient wisdom that they contain and their reflection of the movement of the Sun and the Moon, and see what they tell you. I look forward to hearing about your discoveries and experiences.
