Ley lines

Leys are essentially alignments of sacred sites and so most stone circles have leys associated with them. The most well known of these, even called a Dragon Line by the National Trust, is the alignment that runs from St. Michaels Mount at Penzance in Cornwall up through Burrow Mump, Glastonbury Tor, Avebury and through to Bury St. Edmunds. It is aligned on the cross-quarter day sunrise and sunsets. Some people connect this idea concerning ley lines with the Chinese belief in Feng-Shui, a divination system for landscaping, siting houses, roads etc. which takes into account the chi energy of the land.

Naturally if ancient sites are implicated in psychic events then so too are their associated leys. 37.5% of a random sample of leys showed evidence of UFO events occurring on them or in their immediate vicinity. A map in Paul Devereux's book "Earthlights" shows the strong correlation between UFOs stone circles, and ley lines: UFOs tend to be seen more often in places where there are stone circles or on the line between two circles.

Many people feel that sacred sites, beacon hills, etc. are a sort of earth acupuncture point, a site of earth chi energy, and that ley lines are the meridian channels for this energy. This is an analogy that I have used for many years, because it seems intuitively to fit. Thus the ancient practice of lighting beacon fires on the beacon hills at midsummer and other sacred days is a bit like heat acupuncture of the earths meridians. This analogy fits even better with the recent discovery that acupuncture points can be measured on our bodies using electrical skin resistance meters, the skin's electrical resistance at the acupuncture point differing from the area around. And so with sacred sites, the geomagnetic force differs. This chi energy, whatever it is, is not only linked with geomagnetic energy but also with psychic energy, and it is a psychic force that we feel at stone circles and their associated leys. Paul Devereux is at present exploring the idea that leys are spirit lines linked to shamanic flight paths when people used the sacred sites specifically to induce out-of-body journeys which corroborates this idea.

Ley lines have a spiritual significance, in as much as there is a feel about them which lifts the spirits, which makes you gasp in wonder, which makes you feel good. They give you the feel that you could walk along them with seven league boots. Because presumably the Neolithic peoples were more in tune with the subtle earth energies, because they did not have any form of electrical pollution such as we labour under now in the form of electric pylons, power stations, roads, railways, television, radio waves, etc., almost ad nauseam, then they would be far more aware of the psychic potential of these places and appear to have had a science using this natural earth energy. I actually feel that many of the circles are places such as Doris Lessing describes in Shikasta, places which are tuned in to stars for psychic communication, harmony of this planets' energies for evolutionary purposes. Stonehenge is a cosmic temple related to more than just movements of sun and moon; Callanish relates to the whole of the moon's cycle. Barrows and tumuli seem to be psychic meditation spaces, sweat lodges, initiation chambers, etc.

"We obscure the traces of this vital energy with pipelines, power cables and motorways, polluting the electrical environment at what must be its most finely tuned and vital level; for the connection between the dragon lines, the earth's magnetic field, the electric air, the magnetic sun, draws us into the overall energy patterns of the whole cosmos, linked electrically and magnetically through the electromagnetic vibrations of light."(Shallis, 1988, p.188)
