ALTERS AND EN-TRANCES.

Anta de Pavia, Portugal. Megalithic dolmen with obvious, christianized entrance.

When the architects of the emerging Celtic Christian era began a construction boom across Europe, they chose to erect their new sites of veneration on top of druid, even neolithic sacred sites.

Far from a simple superimposition of a new religion over a vanquished faith, the builders–many of whom shared roots in the ancient Egyptian Mysteries Schools–chose this siting deliberately, to harness the subtle energies that had accumulated at the original sites. The clues remain evident in the language of the new buildings, as they now came equipped with 'alters' (sic) and en-trances.

So, who or what exactly were they altering and entrancing?

During the quest to understand the hidden technology of sacred sites, dowsers and subtle energy researchers find concentrations of electro-magnetism (EM) at the temples' original entrances. These seem to upwell from the earth in spiral form like a blind spring, suggesting that the doorway to the temple acts as a preparation area, charging the human EM field.

A very good example of a temple entrance energizing the body's neurological system is the columnade of reeds at Saqqara. Each 'reed' and 'pool' (the pillars and spaces) contains an alternating electrical charge that has a corresponding effect on the body's alternating current. Walking down the hall you are sensitized, in preparation for entering the courtyard and its tiered pyramid.

Although Europeans brought Catholicism to the United States, they did not transfer the traditional understanding of siting churches on energetic hotspots across the Atlantic. At this point in history the Puritanical and other orthodox beliefs had gained predominant control over Europe's theology, which sought to destroy all remaining connections to paganism and the worship of nature.

And so, by and large, every church in America does not conform to the original purpose behind temple-making, making church attendance nothing more than a symbolic ritual devoid of its practical purpose. However, there are rare exceptions. The original doorways of the oldest Spanish mission in Pasadena, the San Gabriel Mission, are located in accordance to the underlying EM forces of the local landscape, and as a result, a few feet before what used to be the original entrance, a vortex of energy is still detectable in what is now a shady garden. The same is true of the old San Miguel mission in Santa Fe, which is built over a Navajo ceremonial site.

It seems that native cultures in North America, like their European counterparts, understood the importance of siting altars and entrances at magnetic hotspots. T he story is pretty much the same at mounds such as those in Ohio.

Back in the Europe, dowsing maps of Gothic cathedrals such as the one at Salisbury, England, reveal how the positioning of entrances take into account the invisible energies that permeate the landscape. Even more impressive is how the architects sited the thousands of tons of stone in this imposing structure on marshland, which at the time was barely a few feet above water.

Indeed, the blueprints of Salisbury and other gothic structures reveal a spiritual technology at work, for every element of the buildings seems to vector and focus EM energies and water veins, which are already charged due to the EM energy at the site. The focus points of this energy are specifically poignant beneath the imposing spire (a word derived from 'spiral'), and from there they reconvene at the altar.

Up until 100 years ago, altars were actually spelled 'alters', providing an obvious clue to their purpose. The altars in churches built prior to the 17th century predominantly occupy the most energetic spot on the local landscape– the same location once occupied by obelisks or earthen mounds that had once served as the 'alters' of the ancients.

Since these spots concentrate both water (itself an EM conductor) and magnetic paths of earth energy, and are often charged by an underground spiral force, the combination has a profound influence on the body.

Since the human body is electro-magnetic, and is composed of two-thirds water, an alteration of the local energy field can put you into a receptive state that allows for a better connection with much finer levels of reality. What some would call God.
