The Sacred Pyramid of Kulkulkan
In Chichen Itza, in the north of the Yucatan Peninsula, sits the Sacred Pyramid of Kukalkan. The four sets of steps on each side of the Pyramid represent the four Directions and also the four Seasons. Each set has 91 steps representing the Days of each Season, and the upper platform representing the 365th Day.The sun travels 182 days to the north and returns 182 days to the south again every Earth year. This is the season or cycle of the solstices. At the mid-point of this season / cycle is another cycle of the east and west called the Equinoxes. The Pyramid of Kukulkan in the Mayan site of Chichan Itza is at the exact center of these four Seasons. This is where and when the sun is equal in all four directions.On the equinox the sun crosses at the center point of all 4 seasons making exact 90 degrees angles directly on top of the Pyramid pointing for all four Directions. This creates a phenomenon known world wide as shadow of a serpent. This shadow contains 7 triangles that represents the awakening of our seven centers of the physical body. This happens exactly at a point on Earth where the sun is equal in all four directions and 90 degree angles to each other!.
The four rows catty corner to the main steps, have nine levels, each representing the nine levels of Consciousnes throughout the History of the Planet. |
