Preface

Throughout my life I have had an interest in the Unknown, the Mysterious, and the Paranormal. Growing up in the latter half of the 20th century, I devoured all I could read on the Paranormal. At that time, the Paranormal consisted of only a few categories UFOs, Crop Circles, and Ghosts. It seemed that everything we read about today was lumped into these fields. And there were no mysteries in archaeology or civilizations. Yet, I knew deep down that all was not as it appeared. There was so much more to learn and discover.

I grew up in the San Luis Valley of Colorado. To those in the UFO community, this area is well known. Did this area of unknown lights, strange creatures and ancient legends influence my interests? Maybe. Or perhaps it is embedded in my genetic code. Regardless, I have spent a lifetime of searching for answers. Only to find more questions. This book is an attempt to compile and explain the relationship between many of the anomalies that have given me cause to question our reality.

This book would not have been written without the undying love and support of my best friend, soul mate, and husband. Ed believed in me and my research. Without his endless encouragement, I would probably have left most of this information collecting cobwebs in my computer. Thank you.

I would also like to thank those in my family who share with me a love of the unknown - my sister, Becky, for always believing in my writing and abilities; my son, Jeremy, for being a sounding board for my theories; and my daughter, Jennifer, for just being you.

And I would also like to thank everyone who has always been so willing to offer assistance and answer my questions. It is because of all the wonderful people who have entered my life that I am sitting here writing this.

Introduction

This is the first in a series of books about various anomalies found in the United States and how these anomalies are possibly related as well as being associated with Ley Lines or Earth Energy Lines. I am writing about them on a state by state basis, making it easier for those who would like to visit these areas and see for themselves the mysteries which reside there.

I have read extensively on the topics of Ley Lines and Energy Grids and the oddities found near them. This is my interpretation, my understanding, of how the energies found along these grid lines may interact with local geology and other natural elements to create and/or enhance mankinds (un)earthly experiences. I reference the books and websites from which I obtained information. Many of the tales of the unexplained have come from people I encountered throughout my life.

While the science of Ley Lines is still in its infancy, many knowledgeable people have come to similar if not the same conclusions about them. There is an invisible (to most people) energy grid which encompasses the Earth. This grid is the source of magnetic anomalies, power surges, strange sightings in the sky and on the ground, and the location of remnants of ancient civilizations.

Ley Lines were often, and still are, scoffed at. Those people who have felt the pull, seen the unseen, and have been able to locate this Earth Energy Grid are believers. It is these people who have left the naysayers behind and continued to do the research necessary to further the understanding and knowledge of this ancient energy system. Many thanks to them for persevering.

It is my belief that the Earth Energy Grid has been a source of inspiration, enlightenment, and energy since time immemorial. Is it a coincidence that ancient mysteries and oddities are located on or near Ley Lines? Not likely in the majority of cases. Our Ancient Ancestors knew more about the environment in which they lived than we can even possibly imagine. They built magnificent structures on these grids. Unique petroglyphs were used to mark locations of portals and vortexes. Strange occurrences and odd beings have been seen on or around these energetic sites for centuries. Our Ancestors, the Ancient Ones, were able to utilize these energies to their advantage and advancement. Unfortunately, we have lost the instruction manual for what possibly might be the greatest tool we could possibly hope to utilize in our search for knowledge and enlightenment Earths Energy Lines. May we have the strength to open our hearts and souls so that we may find answers

Table of Contents

To better understand the occurrences which take place on or near ley lines, a basic understanding of ley lines is needed.

There are a variety of ley lines; some producing good energy while others produce dark or bad energy. Many follow fault lines (or do the earthquake fault lines follow the energy lines?) while others follow a more geomagnetic path. While they are all different, they are also the same. Ley lines receive their energy from either the sun, the moon, or the Earth's geomagnetism. Ley lines produce energy which can influence living organisms located near them, they can influence mankind through enabling enlightenment, and strange phenomenon can be seen near them.

Some people believe that ley lines are the invisible lines which connect man-made sacred sites - ancient monuments, henges, standing stones and megalithic structures rather than the actual energy line. These structures were built on an existing power grid which the ancient peoples knew about. Where their knowledge of this earth energy grid system came from is anyone's guess. Folklore says the Ancients were told of these grids by the Star People. Others say that the Ancients were better in tune with the Earth and were able to sense them or even dowse for them like many people do today. I use the term ley line to refer to the naturally occurring energy grid which encircles the Earth.

There are several earth grids and energy waves - Becker & Hagens Grid, Hartmann Grid, Curry Grid, Black Lines, Vile Vortices, Potential Portals, and the Schumann Wave. I will write briefly about each of these and hopefully explain how they are relevant to our world.

The first written account of earth grid lines came from Plato in his writings, Timeaus . Plato theorized that the planet Earth evolved from simple geometric shapes into more complex ones. These geometric shapes became known as the Platonic Solids. Plato associated each of the five shapes - cube, tetrahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron - with an element - earth, fire, air, ether (Universe), water. The Earth's Energy Grid evolved through each of these shapes over time into what it is today.

Ivan T. Sanderson, a Scottish biologist and writer, was the first to postulate about the relationship of the icosahedron shape and the Earth. Sanderson claimed that there are twelve geographic areas that are alleged to all have the same mysterious disappearances occur within them. Of these twelve locations, five are located on the same latitude north of the equator, five are located on the same latitude south of the equator, and the remaining two are located at the North Pole and the South Pole. These areas were called Vile Vortices by Sanderson. T he Bermuda Triangle, the Devil's Sea near Japan, and the South Atlantic Anomaly are a few of the Vile Vortices.

In 1973, a Russian team of scientists took Sandersons theory one step further. They overlaid a combination of icosahedrons and dodecahedrons over Sandersons map; lining up seismic zones, ocean ridges, gravitational anomalies, sites of ancient civilizations (known at the time) and routes used by migratory animals.
