Have you ever stood amidst ancient stone circles and felt an inexplicable energy coursing through your body? Have you ever pondered the reason behind our ancestors’ significant efforts to construct enormous stone structures in seemingly arbitrary places? The answer may lie in the invisible rivers of electricity, and related Earth energies, flowing beneath our feet – telluric currents – and their mystical dance with megalithic sites.

The Earth’s Hidden Pulse

Imagine the Earth as a living, breathing entity, its lifeblood pulsing through unseen channels. These are telluric currents – natural electric currents that flow both on the surface and deep within our planet. Like the ebb and flow of tides, these currents follow diurnal patterns, surging towards the Sun during daylight hours and retreating to the geomagnetic poles at night.

But what if our ancestors knew about these currents long before modern science discovered them? What if the megalithic structures scattered across the globe are not just remnants of primitive rituals, but sophisticated tools designed to harness the Earth’s energy?

Megaliths: Ancient Science

When we think of megaliths, we often picture Stonehenge or the enigmatic statues of Easter Island. But these ancient structures are far more than just impressive feats of engineering. They are potential gateways to understanding a lost science of energy manipulation.

To appreciate these sites, we must first understand megaliths. Megaliths are defined as large stones used to construct prehistoric monuments or structures. These can include standing stones (menhirs), stone circles, and chambered tombs (dolmens). A dolmen, specifically, is defined as a type of single-chamber megalithic tomb, typically consisting of two or more upright stones supporting a large flat horizontal capstone.

“The ancient megalithic sites are not just historical artifacts, but living, breathing energy centers that continue to influence the world around them.”

Studies over the last 100+ years have shown that many megalithic sites interact with telluric currents in fascinating ways. At Avebury, for instance, researchers discovered that the circular ditches surrounding the site act as natural conductors, concentrating telluric currents and amplifying their energy within the stone circle.

The Quartz Connection

But why did our ancestors choose specific types of stones for these structures? The answer may lie in the rocks themselves. Many megaliths are rich in quartz and magnetite, materials known for their unique electromagnetic properties. These stones can generate electricity when subjected to pressure or vibrations – a phenomenon known as the piezoelectric effect.

Even more intriguing is the fact that many megalithic sites feature stones that were quarried from sites many miles away, indicating that the ancient megalithic builders went to great lengths to obtain precisely the right kind of stones for their structures.

Picture a megalith as a giant natural battery, constantly charging and discharging in rhythm with the Earth’s energetic pulse. This image isn’t far from the findings of Pierre Mereux, a nineteenth-century electrical engineer who studied the megalithic sites at Carnac in France.

Carnac: A Case Study in Stone Power

Mereux’s work at Carnac revealed some startling insights. Despite being a skeptic who did not ascribe to the new age spiritual philosophies popular in his day, Mereux’s scientific investigations led to unexpected conclusions. He analyzed the voltage and magnetic variations of the megalithic stones at Carnac and found them to be associated with electrical induction.

Mereux’s findings include:

1. The stones emitted energy in concentric circles, like ripples in a pond.
2. They seemed to “recharge” approximately every seven minutes, suggesting a cyclical energy pattern.
3. Different structures served different energetic purposes – dolmens functioned like electrical coils, while stone circles behaved like electrical condensers.
4. The stones produced a pulsing energetic field that carried both negative and positive charges.
5. Mereux’s readings of the stones were most powerful at dawn.

The quartz found in these stones made them especially suitable for generating these varied currents. Interestingly, the ancient builders deliberately chose to quarry the quartz-containing stones at Carnac from a site 60 miles away.

These findings challenge our understanding of ancient knowledge. Could our ancestors have possessed a sophisticated grasp of electromagnetic phenomena that we’re only now beginning to rediscover?

The Brittany Connection

The work of Mereux isn’t the only research that points to the energetic properties of megalithic sites. Two French archaeologists, Merle and Diot, studied ancient megalithic sites and discovered that telluric currents connected them. They explored many different megaliths, but one megalithic site they studied extensively was in the Brittany region of Northern France.

This site, which includes the village of Carnac, is a repository of more than 40,000 megaliths and related structures. Incorporating aspects of these sacred sites, the village of Carnac demonstrates the enduring influence of these ancient structures on human settlement patterns.

Merle and Diot’s research suggests that the ancient megalithic builders chose the Carnac site because it was a particularly intense concentration of magnetic energy emanating from the Earth. The location choice and the specific materials used in construction indicate a deliberate attempt to harness and amplify natural Earth energies.

Earth Acupuncture: Healing the Planet

Freddy Silva, in his book “Portals: Energetic Doorways to Mystical Experiences Between Worlds,” proposes an intriguing theory – that megalithic sites function as a form of “Earth acupuncture.” Silva suggests that ancient structures were strategically positioned to amplify and direct the Earth’s magnetic field, similar to how acupuncture needles balance the body’s energy.

Silva believes this ancient megalithic practice served as a kind of “Earth acupuncture” that naturally amplified the local magnetic field in order to interface with the energies of Earth and sky. This theory suggests that our ancestors were not just building monuments, but creating a network of energetic hotspots across the landscape.

The Dowsing Connection: Maria Wheatley’s Insights

Archaeologists and engineers are not the only ones studying Earth energies at megalithic sites. Maria Wheatley, a second-generation dowser and leading authority on the geodetic system of Earth energies, brings a different perspective to this field of study. Her father, Dennis Wheatley, is considered one of the UK’s top master dowsers, and Maria has continued and expanded upon his work.

Wheatley believes that the builders of the ancient megalithic sites were able to detect and harness Earth energy. 

Maria Wheatley, along with colleagues Rodney Hale and Busty Taylor, used highly sensitive electromagnetic detection instruments as well as dowsing to investigate the possible existence of Earth energies and lines of force at megalithic sites. Their research aimed to validate what dowsers have reported for decades – that the standing stones of megalithic sites emit an energy associated with natural Earth energies.

It’s important to note that not all dowsing is the same. Various types of dowsing exist, with some demonstrating greater accuracy than others, contingent on the subject and purpose of the dowsing. Dowsing, in its most basic form, uses the human body to enter into resonance with various energies for detection.

The Seven Energy Bands

Wheatley, Hale, and Taylor’s research revealed fascinating results. They knew that megalithic stones are believed by dowsers to absorb natural Earth energies in five detectable bands along the face of each stone. Particularly sensitive individuals have reported feeling these energies when placing their hands upon the stones.

Using their incredibly sensitive electromagnetic detection instruments, Wheatley, Hale, and Taylor were able to detect these five bands of energy along the surface of the stones. But their discoveries didn’t stop there. They also detected two additional bands of energy above the ground, resulting in a total of seven vortices associated with megalithic sites.

This discovery led Wheatley to draw an intriguing parallel between megalithic sites and the human chakra system. The chakra system, defined in various Eastern spiritual traditions, consists of seven main energy centers or vortices in the body. Each chakra is associated with specific physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of human existence.

The similarity between the seven energy vortices detected at megalithic sites and the seven chakras in the human body suggests a profound connection between these ancient structures and human energy systems. Harry Oldfield invented the aura camera to further visualize this connection. When used to photograph one of these megalithic sites, the resulting pictures revealed a mysterious prism of colors emerging from the site, ranging from red all the way up to violet – exactly the same color sequence that appears in the human chakra system.

The Human Connection

But what does all this mean for us? If megalithic sites truly interact with Earth’s energy in these profound ways, how might they influence human consciousness and well-being?

Many researchers believe that exposure to these energized sites can have tangible effects on human health and consciousness. Some report feelings of heightened awareness, spiritual experiences, or even physical healing when spending time in these ancient places.

Freddy Silva, in “Portals: Energetic Doorways to Mystical Experiences Between Worlds,” explores this concept further. He suggests that these sites serve as gateways to altered states of consciousness, allowing individuals to connect with higher realms or dimensions. The amplification of natural magnetic fields at these locations could potentially facilitate these mystical experiences.

We must reevaluate our assumptions about ancient knowledge as we explore the mysteries of telluric currents and megalithic sites. Perhaps our ancestors weren’t simply superstitious stone-stackers, but sophisticated engineers of energy, working in harmony with the Earth’s natural forces.

The work of researchers like Mereux, Merle, Diot, Silva, and Wheatley challenges us to approach these ancient sites with fresh eyes and open minds. Their findings suggest that megalithic structures may have served multiple purposes – as astronomical observatories, ceremonial centers, and perhaps most intriguingly, as tools for manipulating Earth’s natural energies.

The study of telluric currents and megalithic sites is more than just an academic exercise. It’s an invitation to reconnect with the pulse of our planet, to rediscover ancient wisdom, and to explore the untapped potential of human consciousness in harmony with Earth’s energy.

The stones have waited patiently for ages. The Earth has never ceased its silent song. Now, as we cultivate the ability to hear and harmonize with these profound energies, we stand at the threshold of not just a new science, but a new era of human flourishing. The path to our highest collective potential may well be written in stone and coursing through the very ground beneath our feet.
