Recording the orientation of them is very interesting and I'd welcome adding this information to our database (although it would have to be as text only though) |

I'm gradually looking into this. But you know me, Andy, I normally like to have visited a place and have photos before I post a site. However, in this case I'll see what I can do.

Useful list but I wish they would give long/lats so we could add them to our map.
We probably have a good many of these already thanks to Alex and others.

hi geofizz
you may be better off posting your thoughts in the mystery's section, it is reserved for anything like dowsing and earth mystery's in general,so probably more in your area of interest.
welcome
cerrig
ps. i hope you aren't too sensitive.

Hi all
i'm new so plead ignorance for jumping in.
I can't write well as my education was at the university of life, but there i learned that planatery movment affected earth energy, the debate here is like that of pylons or phone masts, everyone looks up and no one looks where the legs are planted.
At a solstice for instance earth energy is on the cusp of change from weak to strong or from strong to weak. Now before you can say which is which your post or zip code is required because if you live in the northern hemisphere the strongest day of the year in earth energy is December 25th in the evening. But if you live in New Zealand December 25th will be the weakest day of the year .
If there is a eclipse for example that sends things sidways in terms of earth energy and at the total eclipse of 99 in the Uk the earths energy started moving strangly from a month before to a month after. At the very moment of eclipse one earth energy vanished completly for about a second or two and it took a month in exact reverse order to return to "normal". Astrology is based on the basic principle there is change of earth energy daily in fact hourly and the wise guys knew that. Meeting a tall dark stranger these days is likly to mean bumping into a baliff,
Astrologers today have no concept of the effect planets have on the earths energy nor know anything about earth energy its cycle or its importance. They rely on set periods of planet movment and pridct the likly outcome. Well they did once upon a time anyway. The next big thing is the 21st of december 2012. Actually its the end of a 2.600 planet cycle we repeat every day.
As it happens it's my birthday tomorrow, i'm going to get lashed again as usual as the energy of every minute of tomorrow will never be the same for 2,600 years give or take a weekend so i'm going to enjoy it this time round.
Circle builders had to know this stuff, were every post or stone went what its use was and when. Pyramids are easy peasy if you can get large amounts of stone moved. They don't have to do aything except point up. A fool could build a pyramid, to make one work is a differant matter. The Pyramids today don't work, they havent for a long time thats why burials in pyramids stoped, they went back to the old ways the proven ways of getting the soul in the "heavens by using the underworld. A practise we follow today for our dead which is based on entirly the same principle. Even Cremation as opposed to burial is based on a very simple principle that smoke rises to the heavens. Sky burial is based on the principle birds fly in the heavens and can take the soul there. None of this is rocket science its earth science N.A.S.A just hasent learned yet.
The best discription of planatery movment and the effect on earth energy and people is Lunacy. As they say it's all in the stars its just a pity were not all singing from the same song sheet.
Best wishes
Geofizz

The oddities are the ones to investigate . Most Orkney- Cromarty cairns are like Greek temples in that they face the part of the sky that sun can be seen to rise or set and mainly clustered around around 70-100 degrees but there are the odd ones that face areas of the horizon where there the sun doesn't shine ,or moon for that matter . Michael Hoskin has investigated the orientations of hundreds of temples ,passage graves ,tholos in southern Europe and the vast majority avoid the area of the horizon without a sunrise or set .

The Hieron at Samothrace is 340°!
I've just found a good list of Greek temples:
