Synopsis

A sacred light grid surrounds Table Mountain - a network of sacred springs, caves, stone giants and geometrically aligned marker-stones. Some have human faces with their eyes aligned to interact with the cardinal directions of the sun, the Solstices and Equinoxes. Who did this and why? What message do they hold for us? Following the pathways of the sun through the eyes of ancient peoples, we discover the antiquity of the human spirit and the interconnectedness of all things. The book takes one on a colourful journey of rediscovery. It has been designed so that readers (of all ages) can open it at any page and be drawn into the journey through the magical pathway and photographs that weave the book together.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

"Pathways of the Sun - Unveiling the Mysteries of Table Mountain & beyond" "Pathways of the Sun - Unveiling the Mysteries of Table Mountain & beyond" is a compilation of two decades of research by Dean Liprini into the Sacred Sites of the ancient people at the southern tip of Africa. Here in Southern Africa he has found an extensive network of Sacred Stones, Springs and and Ancient Burial Caves, woven together across more than 700 km to form a “Light Grid” an Ancient Celestial calendar, defined by the cardinal directions of the Sunrise and Sunset of the Summer and Winter Solstices and the Equinoxes and a lot more…… Dean unveils this information and has explored not only the various physical Academic Sciences, Archaeology, Astronomy, Geology, Geography and History… but also the Sacred Geometries, Spiritual and Metaphysical Healing aspects Enshrined within these Sacred Sites. A most fascinating and beautifully illustrated book filled with Great Spirit, mystery and wonder. The scale and magnitude of the profiles, observatories and Markerstones covering an area over 800 km long is monumental in proportion and defies explanation. Much work remains to be done to document all the known sites, many of which lie on privately owned land and are inaccessible to the public. This Mapping of the Southern African Sacred Sites is the primary objective of the Sacred Sites Foundation of Southern Africa, along with developing a strong network of Community Custodianship projects around the country.
