UNRAVELLING A HEALING MYSTERY: The hidden purpose of the pyramids of Giza

Over the past few years, my path as a shaman has led me to hold and participate in ceremonies around the world, aiming to support the energetic development of the Earth. 

These ceremonies often take place at sacred sites, some which are very old, and I have been fascinated by the profound impact this has had on my life, my development as well as that of other participants.

I have therefore become fascinated by the exploration of these sites, and the understanding of the forces which lie behind such significant impact. 

The pyramids of Giza

The complex of the Pyramids of Giza is without a doubt one of the most influential and impactful of such sites and unravelling its mystery may provide answers to many questions which are relevant to our society today and to the future of humanity.

As we recently held an online ceremony at the site for the September full moon, I thought I would gather some information which helps us better understand the impact of these compelling structures and share it in this podcast episode.
The episode will end with a guided sound, breath and energy practice, as usual, channelling the energy of the pyramids.

Egyptologist claims
If you have read traditional history books or even taken an official guided tour of the site, you would have heard that the pyramids were created 2500 years BC as a burial site for 3 important kings. The accompanying Sphinx statue, showing the body of a lion with the head of a God, represented the head of Khafre, the most important of the three. 

 As recently as 1977, however, conflicting evidence has been emerging from researchers and experts in the fields of sacred sites and *Archaeoastronomy who firmly believe these would have been built 12000 years ago to be used as ceremony spaces supporting mankind in reaching higher levels of consciousness. 

Archaeoastronomy
Archaeoastronomy is the investigation of the astronomical knowledge of prehistoric cultures and is used to study the relationship between ancient archaeological sites and the cosmos. 

Ancient civilisations intentionally aligned sacred sites to the cosmos because they believed this connection allowed humans to gain access to highly useful information, in the form of energy and codes, allowing them to access a higher level of intelligence. The great pyramids, as well as many other famous sites, were built according to these alignments.

The pyramids and Orion 

The primary alignment which is associated with the pyramids of Giza is the one known as the Orion correlation. Analysis of the monuments indicates the site would have been purposely constructed in relationship with the relative positions of the three stars in the constellation of Orion as they appeared around 12000 years ago. 

The alignment would have shifted today as a result of the process of precession by which the Earth's relationship to the cosmos changes over time. Had the site been built at the supposed date of 2500 BC, these would have been out of alignment with Orion's belt

Claims that the site was used as the kings' burial ground were also questioned, as further research had indicated no bodies had ever been found within them and that neighboring sites would have been used for burial instead. 

Why Orion

So why were the pyramids created in alignment to Orion? 

How did this relate to their actual use and purpose?

The stars of Orion were associated with Osiris, the god of rebirth and afterlife. It was considered the gateway to the milky way, the place in the universe associated with the transcendence of souls to other dimensions. It is also theorized that the Nile represented the Milky way on Earth. 

This transcendence of souls relates, not only to beings which die a physical death but to humans who were known to undergo a process called "live resurrection" during which initiates theoretically died while their physical body remained alive. This process which was recognized as the highest order of spirituality by influential societies around the world was common practice in ancient Egypt and took place among the chambers and passageways of sacred sites such as the ones found in the Pyramids. 

Let's not forget that it has often been cited that the construction methods of the pyramids appear so advanced we would be unable to replicate them today. 

How would they have been built so long ago?  

The connection to Orion alludes to a construction date approximately 12,000 years ago, which is significant as this relates to the story of the advanced civilisation of Atlantis. The fact that this ancient civilization, first discussed by Plato in 350 BC, was said to boast the use of highly advanced technologies which may hold the answer to the mystery of the pyramids' construction.

Pyramid design principles:  

Sacred sites such as this one often display the use of the specific criteria relating to orientation, sacred geometry, and mathematics in their construction, which amplify the sacred nature of the site. 
Here are a few which can be noted upon analysis of the pyramids: 

1. The structures face true north which each side relating directly to one orientation, north-south- east-west. In doing so, they all align to the sunrise at a specific equinox/ solstice stage of the Earth's natural cycle.

2. The Sphinx, based on the constellation of Leo, is directly facing east which is the rising sun of the spring solstice

3. The pyramids are built to precisely the same proportions of the planet Earth to a scale of 1: 43200.

4. Their form was based on that of a pyramid-shaped hill called Dehenet which overlooked the Valley of the Kings. This hill was recognized by the pharaohs as a gateway to the other world, a place where humans would hold ceremonies and learn to access their highest selves.

5. Its construction also reflects the use of the famous diagram of the circle squared.

The circle squared
In ancient civilisations, the circle represented the heavens above, the spirit world, while the square symbolized the Earth manifested.
A diagram in which a circle and square of same sizes would overlap was often used to represent the meeting of Heaven and Earth, a representation of our potential enlightenment and of the very reason for our existence on Earth as human beings. 

It is demonstrated that this circle square diagram was used in the construction of the pyramid shape as it was in other sacred sites such as Stonehenge, a famous British stone circle. Its use allowed the physical architecture of the site to support the site's ceremonious activities intending to enable the above connection. 

These sites would serve as meeting grounds for mystery schools which aimed to teach humans how to connect to the cosmic realm so that they could live better lives. 

Egypt was actually known as the place where mystery schools originated, possibly originally intending to restore order after the fall of Atlantis. 

The human and the circle / square diagram, 

Leonardo Da Vinci's famous drawing of the Vitruvian man famously showed a diagram in which a male body stands in alignment with the graphic of a square and circle overlapping; a significant indication that enlightenment is also intrinsically embodied in the physicality of human beings.

The pyramids and other structures similarly built, were therefore created using scales and dimensions which referred to the connection between Heaven and Earth but also that to a shape inherent to mankind. 

This point to a possible indication that our fundamental purpose as humans may be to unite Heaven and Earth. 

So the more we connect to these structures, the more we connect to the fields of higher intelligence which they relate to. In doing so, we transcend the veil of illusion which we experience as humans and begin to see beyond the misconceptions of our materiality. 

In doing so, we grow and expand and gain the ability to live better lives daily. 

As Graham Hancock says, the pyramids are mysterious architectural structures which invite us to unravel its mystery. As we unravel its mystery, we unravel our own as well.
