There has been much exploration of the Pyramids of Cheops, Giza Plateau, Cairo; both the buildings and in thought.

Conventional archaeology focuses on a material explanation, a reflection of the scientific materialism of the present and recent ages. But many enquirers are now proposing explanations of the purposes of these great buildings more holistically; as matter and energy. It is the energetic aspect of the pyramids that I wish to explore.

The type of energy we are considering is electromagnetic. We know that the pyramid of Cheops is aligned perfectly with the magnetic north pole. Like many ancient monuments it is more likely this was deliberate than chance.

We also know that the type of electricity in question is static electricity as found in the earth tellurgic currents and the human body.

A story describes a visit to the Great Pyramid by Sir W. Siemens, a British inventor. Accompanied by a local guide he climbed to the summit; something not permitted now! He was instructed to raise his hands and raise one finger. He did so and noticed that he could feel an irritating prickling sensation in that finger. When he took a drink from a bottle of wine he had brought along, he received a slight shock as the bottle touched his lips. On wrapping wet newspaper around the bottle he created a crude Leyden Jar which converted energy emanating from the pyramid into static electricity.

Recently I sat outside in a thunderstorm facing the storm and taking photographs  (see above). My digital camera was set to take multiple images in fast sequence. As well as some dramatic pictures of lighting, there were several photographs of an electric blue, wavy column of light ascending towards the overcast sky. These images intrigued me and I discovered that they are known to science as ‘streamers’. They are produced by proximity of the positive ions in the earth to negatively charged, thunder clouds. These positive ions build up until the charge leaps towards the clouds overhead. This process appears as a blue streak of positively charged plasma. It dramatically connects with lightning in the clouds and discharges. Not all lightning discharges in this way, the more common variety discharging within the same clouds (sheet) or directly to earth (forked).

Observing this phenomenon fitted another piece into a puzzle I have been contemplating for some time.

In my youth I visited many of the prehistoric sites in southern England. The round mounds known as Barrows line the summits of rounded hills often linked to stone circles via straight ‘avenues’. They are constructed in a manner that makes then function as simple batteries, storing positive energy collected by the stones. Where there are large concentrations of standing stone structures such as at Avebury, Wiltshire, there are correspondingly large artificial mounds. The one close to the stone circles at Avebury is considerable and has never been understood by archaeologists. A BBC film crew once gained permission to excavate it. This set off electrical storms in the sky above regarded at the time as coincidence.

I know believe that the function of pyramids was to build up massive positive charges within. In most pyramids this charge naturally emanated from their tips into the clouds. It must be remembered that even as recently as Roman times, North Africa had a much wetter climate where thunderstorms no doubt occurred. During these storms the Pyramideons ( micro scaled pyramids on the tip) let out huge amounts of energy.

If comparison is made with the tower created by Nicola Tesla in Shoreham, New York there is an intriguing similarity in construction and functional electrical processes. He created electrical storms directly from the top of his machine, much to the concern of his neighbours! Tesla saw this energy as being able to provide electrical power to the world. Remember this was the man who gave us alternating current and wireless communication, so is not to be dismissed as a fantasists.

This unproven similarity with the Pyramid of Cheops is incomplete, until further clues are considered. The first clue for me, was that the Pyramids of Cheops had no Pyramideon when built, or after. This distinctive design feature provides a large clue to it’s function.

Directly below it the tip of the pyramid, is the so-called ‘Kings Chamber’. Lower and to the south side more is the so-called ‘Queens Chamber’. Both chambers were never used for burials, as no evidence of this has ever been found. There are however two narrow passages that extend north and south from both chambers. They are described most often as ‘air passages’, unusual in a supposed tomb!

Sherlock Holmes is credited with saying that all possibilities should be eliminated and what is left is the truth. If we follow this rule then the ‘air shafts’ that lead north and south out of these chambers, were not for air. They are blocked by exactly fitting stones which have two metal rods inserted through them. If we consider the water below the pyramid as a source of positive ions rising through the stones and into the pink granite lined chambers, it is easy to visualise this energy leaving the pyramid as ‘streamers’ through these shafts. The air inside them would turn to plasma which would escape from the shafts and seek negative ions in the clouds forming lightning.

Each shaft has been calculated to point to certain stars in the year 2500BC when the pyramids were in use, such as Sirius. How accurate these facts are I am not in a position to verify, but whichever star it might eventually be received a pulses of electromagnetic energy. This is pure speculation but if a reason is needed then possibly there was information encoded in it, much like our modern use of radio waves.

The story has many more intriguing possibilities. As the Kings Chamber contained no burial, the granite box without a lid, is the right dimensions to contain the Arc of the Covenant. As an Egyptian priest, the biblical Moses would have known about this and it’s esoteric function. Whatever these were, he valued the Arc’s properties so highly that he stole it when he escaped from Egypt with the Israelites. The Egyptians valued it so highly, that they chased him with an army to retrieve it.

We can speculate that it’s function in the pyramid as an energy store, may have been used for initiation ceremonies and / or part of the mummification process. The two gold angels with almost touching wings on the top of the Arc could have created an ‘arc’ of electricity; the box and the metal covered stone tablets it contained, acting as a capacitor. This would explain why so many contemporary references, describe it as ‘dangerous’.

The picture of the true function of the pyramids is still incomplete. We can speculate and find possible reasons for facts that previously have been incorrectly ‘explained’. The real truth requires more evidence, more access to areas of the pyramids and Sphinx as yet undiscovered.

One last tit pit though. Energy produces heat when discharged and there is apparently scaring to the pink granite and so called ‘air passages’. Something was hot inside this pyramid, which would explain the term ‘pyramid’ . Translated it means, ‘fire in the middle’.
