Since prehistoric times, people have had a mysterious attraction to sacred or holy places believing that they have the power to heal, to enlighten, and to make contact with the soul. Interestingly, anthropologists and National Geographic photographer Martin Grey wandered around eighty countries photographing nearly a thousand sacred sights. His book, Sacred Earth: Places of Peace and Power, is a masterpiece. Perhaps there is no aspect in the entire field of energy and healing that has such broad appeal to people of all religions and faiths as sacred sites. Stonehenge, Gloor, Machu Picchu, Easter Island, Mount Olympus, Glastonbury Tor, the Giza Pyramids, Angkor Wat, Mount Kailash, Sowangsa Temple, Mecca, along with temples, churches, and shrines throughout the world attest to the diversity of sacred sites.

Phillip Callahan has perhaps shown the most significant scientific proof that many of these sacred sights have a unique physical energy. In his book, Ancient Mysteries, Modern Visions: The Magnetic Life of Agriculture, published by Acres U.S.A. in 1984, Callahan describes the difference between paramagnetic and dielectric systems. Rare earth metals and certain salts have paramagnetic, or weakly magnetic, properties and only weakly attracted to a magnet. Diamagnetic is actually repelled by a strong magnetic field. Paramagnetic materials are actually massive electronic collectors of cosmic microwave energy and accumulators of magnetic energy. Round towers, constructed in ancient Christian monasteries, and even the earlier Celtic monasteries, were often built of paramagnetic material. Paramagnetic substances are nonmetallic, but the electron configuration in their atoms make them weakly magnetic.

Callahan tested sixty-four of the standing round towers in the earlier Celtic area. Thirty-nine were built of limestone and twenty-five were built of sandstone. Other ancient buildings were constructed of basalt, clay, slate, or granite, all of which have weak paramagnetic properties. Earth clay contains traces of iron and, therefore, even ordinary clay flower pots are paramagnetic. This is why many gardeners, including me, feel that clay pots are far better than plastic pots for growing plants.

Callahan points out that seeds exposed to the south pole of a magnet lead to plants that grow faster. Magnetic fields also increase the yield of tomatoes as well as accelerate ripening. The natural magnetic system of rye and beans increases in wheat and corn, which germinate much more rapidly in magnetic fields. Interestingly, Callahan also mentions that wheat magnetic fields improve memory. Plants themselves are diamagnetic but animals, including humans, are paramagnetic. Callahan’s earlier work described how insects detect animal matter from specialized sensors in their antennae. Good soil is always paramagnetic and not only are the structures of many sacred sites paramagnetic, but the soil around them is paramagnetic to a greater extent than most ordinary soil.

Pink granite is the most paramagnetic of all known stone. It is interesting that the inside tower chamber of the Great Pyramid is constructed of pink granite. Of course many of the sacred sites, especially the great cathedrals, receive the additional subtle energy impact of the intent of the worshippers, pilgrims, etc. Belief, emotional singing, chanting, sacred music, and prayer all express the needs and desires that individuals bring to these sites, imprinting their intention/intent upon the paramagnetic materials!
