Giza Prophecy [Paperback]

For years now, I've been absolutely absorbed by the wonder of the Great Pyramid. In 1997 I traveled to Egypt and visited the pyramids at Giza. Fortunately for me, I was able to explore the King's chamber, and then unbeknownst to the Egyptian Antiquities Police on-site, I ventured into the Queen's chamber and then down, down, down the Descending passage into the Subterranean chamber, on my own, to experience the absolute deafening silence. An amazing experience inside a truly magnificent and awe-inspiring building! Reading 'The Giza Prophecy' opened my mind, and my eyes, to something about the three pyramids on the Giza plateau, and the Great Pyramid itself, that I had never before thought possible. The Great Sphinx is a sight to behold indeed, but learning from Creighton and Osborn about the certain involvement of this ancient monument in relation to the pyramids is eerie, to say the least! The original people who sculpted the Great Sphinx and crafted the pyramids at Giza come from a civilization that far, far exceeds the technical, mathematical and astronomical knowledge that our greatest architects and builders possess today. I suppose I could say, that apart from their primary purpose for the pyramids, in their wisdom, they left a time capsule with a message, for mankind, in their future, to discover for themselves. We are that people they left the time capsule for. One could even argue, to a degree, that the present-day Freemasons will most probably be suitably influenced by Creighton and Osborn's geometrical discoveries. If Creighton and Osborn's hypothesis proves to be real, and I believe it is, then we are in for the ride of our lives! Brace yourselves for the Giza Prophecy to unfold, for you.

"It is surely harmful to souls to make it a heresy to believe what is proved"
Galileo Galilei

The Giza Prophesy, the new book by Gary Osborn and Scott Creighton, begins with an introduction to the power and influence of the church in the late middle ages. They cite Galileo's imprisonment and the execution of Bruno as examples of how men of science were driven underground in order to continue their studies at this time and how this led to secret Masonic symbology in art and culture through the proceeding centuries.
Society today seems generally unaware of how powerful the church was at this time and how any threat to its rule was extinguished in brutal and merciless fashion.
This fear of persecution was reason enough to establish secret societies but Osborn and Creighton delve into these groups to show how they may also exist as guardians of a much greater secret to do with the angle of 23.5 degrees and the architecture of the Giza plateau.
Many readers will be familiar with Robert Bauval's Orion theory and it is from this starting point that Osborn and Creighton demonstrate the additional findings that corroborate and expand this 'key'.
Chapter 2, for example, deals with an extremely intriguing possible mix-up in relation to the Great Pyramid and its proposed builder Khufu and as the book progresses Osborn and Creighton cite often overlooked texts and ignored anomalies showing why the conventional dating of the Giza plateau may be wrong and how some scientists are now openly questioning the C14 dating methods.
The depth of Osborn's research in relation to the Great Pyramids measurements comes to the fore from chapter 5 onwards and the theory being put forward is supported with helpful geometric maps and explanatory calculations.
Osborn and Creighton were, no-doubt, well aware that their proposal will be examined by supporters and critics alike and make sure that arguments in relation to angle alignments, star-shafts and the sky itself are all supplied in painstaking detail.

So, after all of the research and calculations, just what are Osborn and Creighton proposing?
The answer is one that is currently causing a great amount of controversy and excitement, not just in the world of Egyptology but, also, in the realm of Science and Technology. The authors contend that the Giza plateau and great Pyramid point us to a 13'000 year time line linked to the precessional cycle of Orion's Belt during which, at certain times, a devastating shift in the Earth's axis may occur. The authors contend that the ancient Egyptians somehow know of this cycle and built the pyramids at Giza as seed recovery vaults in order that they might survive this cataclysm and rebuild their civilization.
An intriguing and rewarding read. Highly recommended.

I just finished this exceptional book and found it to be one of the best on this topic! It is a scholarly, exciting telling of what has recently been uncovered as to the reasons for the pyramids construction. It is well worth the price and the thinking involved to understand the prophecy!
