Part 2 - Stonehenge

On the previous page about the alignments of Arthur's Seat the angle of 22.65° was found by dividing the total degrees of change between northern most and southern most risings and settings by 4.

This investigation continues with the sacred site of Stonehenge. The coordinates of which are:

51.18° N / 1.83° W

During my investigations of Stonehenge in relation to the 4 fire festivals (Beltane, Lughnasa, Samhain and Imbolc), a set of stones, 2 of which are said to mark these days, are spoken about a great deal, with varying opinions.

Another well known sacred site called Newgrange in Ireland also marks these key dates, for more info:

One such opinion is that these stones, called the Station Stones (stones 91,92,93&94), signify a perfect rectangle of 12 units by 5 units, with a diagonal length of 13 units.

There are many pages on the internet talking about this 12 by 5 rectangle, asking if its an exact rectangle in reality.

The stones that remain at Stonehenge are few, but detailed maps and measurements have been taken.

To add further weight to the reality of their original exact position (as over time some of the stones have fallen over or been removed), here is an diagram showing their measured lengths and angles:

Its pretty much an exact 12 by 5 rectangle, just slighty off ( and for a reason )...

The measurements used in the above graphic can be found on this external link (p13):

Station-Stones-of-Stonehenge

89.5 + 89.5 + 91.1 + 91.1 = 361.2

361.2 / 4 = 90.3°

80.4 + 34.7 + 79.9 + 32.7 = 227.7 meters = perimeter of Station Stones

227.7 meters / 0.2992 m = 761 egyptian pyramid feet

*This length connects Stonehenge to the Great Pyramid*

To summarize in comparison so far:

Arthur's Seat = total angle of change = 90.6°

and 90.6 / 4 = 22.65° is +0.03 off the angle created from a perfect 12 by 5 rectangle (see graphic below)

Whereas at Stonehenge:

Station Stones = average of the 4 angles = 90.3°

and 90.3 / 4 = 22.58° is -0.04 off the angle created from a perfect 12 by 5 rectangle (see graphic below)

{ tan-1 ( 5 / 12 ) = 22.62° }

The 2/3 (0.666...7) way markers

At the latitude of Stonehenge the northern most sunrise, at Summer Solstice, rises at:

40.7° North of East and the Sun sets at 40.7° North of West.

The southern most sunrise, at Winter Solstice, rises at:

38.1° South of East and the Sun sets at 38.1° South of West.

The total degrees of change between mid summer and mid winter therefore equals:

40.7 + 38.1 = 78.8°

The diagram below shows the above calculations in a radial format (eagle's view / top down).

Included are the 2/3 (0.666...7) way markers from exactly East and West (both as 0°).

40.7 x 0.666...7 = 27.13°

38.1 x 0.666...7 = 25.40°

In yellow are the dates these alignments occur relative to Stonehenge.

In green are the number of days between each respective alignment.

The longer section in which there is 47 days indicates that the season in which it occurs (Summer solstice to Autumn equinox) is where the Aphelion is currently positioned (Jul 5th).

In each case the Azimuth is to aligned closest to either 115.4 & 297.1 angles

Below you can see the alignments on the dates the cross-quarter days are in our current era, and how they are in marked in relation to stones 91 & 93.

It can be understood therefore that Stonehenge still keeps track of the exact local times of the 8-fold-year for its latitude and longitude.

The graphic below is the only 1 out the 4 templates on this page about Stonehenge in which these alignments fit.

May 4th (Beltane eve) and Aug 8th (Lughnasa eve) ~ Sunset

(NOT May 1st / Aug 1st)

before May 5th (Beltane mornin) and Aug 9th (Lughnasa mornin) ~ Sunrise

Nov 7th (Samhain mornin) and Feb 4th (Imbolc mornin) ~ Sunrise

(NOT Nov 1st / Feb 1st)

after Nov 6th (Samhain eve) and Feb 3rd (Imbolc eve)

The calculations that create the above diagram are based on knowing the true east/west axis.

The 2/3 (0.666...7) way markers being exact midpoints (* relative to cross-quarter days) between the northern most and southern most risings and settings and the true east/west axis.

THE EXTRA VERSIONS BELOW WERE MADE TO SHOW EXAMPLES

OF WHERE IT DOES NOT ALIGN EXACTLY WITH STONES 91 & 93

Another version of marking the seasons from Stonehenge would be to have the 2/3 (0.666...7) way markers equally spaced from northern most to southern most risings and settings. { instead of using the East / West like in the one above }

The total degrees of change between mid summer and mid winter is 78.8°:

78.8°/ 6 = 13.13°

13.13° x 2 = 26.26°

Here is the diagram for the equally spaced 2/3 (0.666...7) way markers.

40.7° N (- 13.13°) = 27.6° N

27.6° N (- 26.26°) = 1.3° N

1.3° N (- 26.26°) = 25.0° S

25.0 S° (- 13.13°) = 38.1° S

In each case the Azimuth is off from the exact 115.4 & 297.1 angles

The 1/2 (0.5) way markers

At the latitude of Stonehenge the northern most sunrise, at Summer Solstice, rises at:

40.7° North of East and the Sun sets at 40.7° North of West.

The southern most sunrise, at Winter Solstice, rises at:

38.1° South of East and the Sun sets at 38.1° South of West.

The total degrees of change between mid summer and mid winter therefore equals:

40.7 + 38.1 = 78.8°

The diagram below shows the above calculations in a radial format (eagle's view / top down).

Included are the 1/2 (0.5) way markers from exactly East and West (both as 0°).

40.7 x 0.5 = 20.35°

38.1 x 0.5 = 19.05°

In yellow are the dates these alignments occur relative to Stonehenge.

In green are the number of days between each respective alignment.

In each case the Azimuth is off from the exact 115.4 & 297.1 angles

The calculations that create the above diagram are based on knowing the true east/west axis.

The half way markers being exact midpoints (* relative to horizon) between the northern most and southern most risings and settings and the true east/west axis.

The longer section in which there is 34 days indicates that the season in which it occurs (Summer solstice to Autumn equinox) is where the Aphelion is currently positioned (Jul 5th).

Another version of marking the seasons from Stonehenge would be to have the markers equally spaced from northern most to southern most risings and settings.

The total degrees of change between mid summer and mid winter is 78.8°:

78.8°/ 4 = 19.7°

Here is the diagram for the equally spaced markers at 19.7° increments.

In each case the Azimuth is off from the exact 115.4 & 297.1 angles
