MAGNETICS.

The Earth is one giant magnet. Flux lines enter through the north pole, flow down the center of the planet, and exit out the south pole and return to the north. This perpetual loop resembles an invisible apple, and the Earth its core. But observed from further away the magnetosphere encircling the Earth gives the overall appearance of a giant spider. Interestingly, many ancient cultures associate the spider with creation myths, as it seems to have the ability to create its own world, and its symbol has been used in ancient art, from pottery to petroglyphs. |

That is the larger picture. But when magnetic lines of energy float along the face of the Earth they acquire a new and practical purpose. Back in the days when humans were closer to the nature of things, they possessed the ability to see such subtle forces. Aboriginal cultures still practise this art, and it is not uncommon for the people of Australia to see and walk these cosmic conveyor belts. They call them ‘song lines’ because they sing melodies along them. And just like a strip of magnetic cassette tape their song is recorded and remembered by the next person who comes along. This technique, which is tens of thousands of years old, allows the pathways to be remembered and recharged. The song lines are known by many other names around the world. To the Chinese they are Lung Mei, the dragon lines; to the Celts they are the fairy paths, and many other cultures refer to them as serpent lines or spirit roads. Throughout the world, the serpent representing the fertility of the Earth is a symbol as old as language, perhaps older. The eternal relationship between the telluric forces of the Earth, which seek to work in harmony with humans, and vice versa, is immortalized in the tale of Adam and Eve when they meet the serpent in the garden of Eden (a place of total perfection) and are encouraged to eat the ‘apple of wisdom’. Like all myths, the story is a metaphor. In ‘eating’ the apple one understands the inner workings of nature and seeks to work in tandem with its fercundity. When it banished the sacred feminine from its paternal monopoly, the Catholic church turned this concept upside down: the serpent was to become synonymous with evil, and eating the apple of wisdom— that is, gaining knowledge of the mechanics of the Universe— brought with it expulsion from the goodness of God. The repercussions of this negation of natural laws are only too easy to see today, in the wanton destruction of the environment. For nearly two thousand years the human mind has been so conditioned as to work against the very body from which it was born, like a tree chopping off its own limbs. The serpent seems rather an apt description of the behaviour of magnetic forces, because along the ground these invisible rivers do meander along the landscape. Neolithic peoples had no trouble following the course of the dragon lines, and they would harness their subtle forces for accessing more refined states of awareness. But as people began to lose that connection so the need grew for locating these hotspots. So began the era of standing stones, stone circles, dolmens and other edifices of stone. According to French archeologists Merle and Diot “all such sacred sites are located at intersecting lines of magnetic energy”. These stones, all containing high amounts of quartz, a programmable substance, served to anchor the magnetic veins to the spot. In essence, Neolithic architects were performing a kind of Earth acupuncture, rooting the serpentine magnetic lines to the spot. Today, these places are not just potent in magnetism, they are also still places of veneration. And the effect on the human magnetic field can be profound. This affect, along with the relationship betwen stone and magnetism, remains at the core of esoteric and pagan practices (a pagan is 'someone who lives in teh country', nothing more!). Visiting such places when one is sick or in need of rejuvenation is a tradition that still cpntinues to this day, despite attempts by the emerging Catholic church to ban such pratices. At one time, women caught facilitating childbirth at sacred sites, even enhancing their menstrual cycles, would be made to fast for three years. Some were not as lucky: after torture and rape, the ywere burned alive. However, despite such extreme measures, sacred sites were deemed essential to the proper flow of life that their veneration never was succesfully outlawed. Even by the Victorian era, many doctors would send their patients to ancient temples, particularly holy wells, because of their inherent curative properties. This was not lost on the modern medical world. The symbol of the winged snake wrapped around a standing stone is today the logo of the medical industry. © Freddy Silva.
