that is awesome. though half the things that you are saying jb are going right over my head. i'm getting the basic gist of what you are saying but other than the size i'm not getting the deal between the particle accellerator and stonehenge(wow that sounded so geeky, so star trek).

Well I suppose that is my deficit then for not explaining it better. My theory is based on references regarding Atlantis using crystals to perform magic; a merger of technology and magic. The fact is that the stones that were used in Stonehenge are not from the same location where it was built. It took a Stone Age people incredible project management skills and manpower to bring these stones from a great distance to this location. (The dates of when it was built and by whom is under debate. As is why they would go to such trouble.)

The line of reasoning goes: why would the builders do this? I think it is because these stones harbor a crystal matrix that somehow interacts or "resonates" with the magnetic anomaly at the location where they built it. (In science crystals resonate at various frequencies when they intercept energy.) And that is why they brought these special type of stones to this location, in my mind they knew about the properties of this rock, it wasn't just a coincidence, or because they thought they were a pretty color or type. There are many theories about how the stones were brought from one location to another; everything from levitation by dwarves to wooden rollers after they cleared the plain where it is located. But they don't know why they would bring one type of rock over another. As a scientist I know that from geology different types of rocks have different types of crystal lattice arrangements (the way the rocks are constructed at an atomic level) from the crystal inclusions in rocks. These arrangements can interact with a geomagnetic disturbance to create what scientists call a piezeoelectric effect. Perhaps the ancient builders knew how to then tap into this energy and use it for "magick". Magick could be healing, astral travel, etc. So the stones would in effect augment, or magnify, the ancient priestesses own abilities and enhance the effect.

Therefore, in basic terms, the entire edifice of Stonehenge would act like a giant power booster to the priestesses own ability through amping up the power signal by virtue of the interaction of the rocks and the geomagnetic anomaly quite naturally.

Still this is my own theory, there are many out there, it's just one of those things that make me go hmmmmm.

That is just wow. I would love to go there and just sit...do nothing but sit and see what happens there. I think it would be an awsome exsperiance.

Just read this very interesting article that I believe is/has been made into a television documentary regarding Stonehenge. I will summarize because I thought it was very cool and interesting for those who are into shamanistic magick traditions.

Hypothesis: Acoustic scientists received permission to study their theory that the rock composition of the stones comprising the henge system, and the design of the henge system itself was no accident and actually important to this sacred location.

Basics:
I think everyone is aware that the giant blocks follow what they call a trilothon pattern, with two vertical standing stones topped by a third stone that is horizontal and parallel to the ground. There are several concentric circles of these stones at various heights. The stones are immense, and heavy, but are not from a local area. It is not recorded how or why they were brought in from very far away and this, along with the design, has always puzzled scientists why it was constructed in this fashion.

Anthropology background:
Acoustic engineers made recordings of indigenous people's sacred music that they use to get into trance states. The brain produces waves of energy that leave your body and interact with your surroundings depending on your conscious state. When you are awake and conscious you produce alpha brain waves, sometimes beta depending on what you are doing. When you sleep and enter into different trance states your brain shifts in unconsciousness and produces beta and theta waves. This music is primarily drumming that was then accompanied by other natural instruments such as rattles and of course voice. The music is known to induce trance, they theorize, because the drumming gets into sync with the human's brainwave output and changes it to a different waveform (from alpha into theta waves). In many scientific studies this has been proven that simple beats can elicit this response, especially coupled with fluctuating light sources. This is what happens for example when people meditate.

Experiment at STonehenge:
The acoustic engineers first experiment was to rebound the recordings they made at different depths with relationship to the central "heel stone" and see if alternating ranges would cause any kind of harmonic resonations. A harmonic resonation is caused when a crystal matrix vibrates at a specific frequency. The engineers then measured the various echos and sound wave generation throughout the henge system. The second experiment was to then emplace torches very close to the henge rocks and see if the rebounding waves had any effect in fluctuating the torches.

In the second experiment at a certain volume, and with the music generating from the heel stone area the torches would indeed not only fluctuate but strobe in time with the drum beats.

In the first experiment they then took their recordings of the echo and put all the information into a computer that would then simulate the completed structure of Stonehenge and found that the structure magnifies and amplifies the drumming not only to create harmonic resonation but is the specific distance for the wave forms to amplify and inundate the entire area of STonehenge. This was specific to this type of rock matrix and the circular trilothon structure of Stonehenge. The heel stone, which has largely been assumed to have fallen from its original position, or an altar, actually was key to rebounding and amplifying the wave forms from this position.

So, in basic terms Stonehenge acts like an ampitheater; amplifying the sound of the drumming so that the wave forms that elicit the trance state were pumped out in a radius around it to affect all the people worshiping. The experience would be then magnified by the torches strobing in beat with the music to help augment a trance state. So anthropologists would say that ceremonies taking place inside of it caused a brain wave induced trip!
Thus why so many people probably pilgrimmaged there; because they would trip out and have fantastic, otherwordly experiences that for them proved the spirit world existed and could be interacted with.

Isn't that cool!

I love string theory. But then, I always thought that the universe was held together with string, glue, and bits of wire.

I always thought it was rosebushes and thumbtacks and icicles and glue.[nonsense]

have any of you ever tought that there might just be a lot more stonehenge then what we see. i mean there has been hole towns and villages covered by the grounds of time not to be decovered for thousands of years unilt the earth gave way may that be by quakes or other land desasters. what i am trying to say is that the answer to the mysterys of stonehenge might be descovered it some one just picked up a shovel and started to dig. so dont judge something just by what you may see because there might just be more then what meets the eye.

Well actually if you check out another topic on Stonehenge you will see that I have already mentioned that my sister who is an archeologist told me all about the work they are doing to reveal the surrounding "neolithic city" that once surrounded Stonehenge and made it a mecca for those ancient people to travel to.

namaste,
