Gather ’round boys and girls, it’s story time. Hair has played a prominent part in fairy tales and myths, but if you look closely at these stories, hair is not the only common thread, and they perhaps tell a more literal story of the drama of our universe.
“From the smallest particle to the largest galactic formation, a web of electrical circuitry connects and unifies all of nature, organizing galaxies, energizing stars, giving birth to planets and, on our own world, controlling weather and animating biological organisms. There are no isolated islands in an electric universe”.

There are these stone towers in Ireland that come straight out of a fairy tale. Tall, slender cylinders of stone with a handful of tiny windows and the tall pointed cone roof, that bring to mind the image of a princess with long flowing tresses dangling out from the top window to allow her prince access. Well these towers are more than just about Rapunzel. Or perhaps, Rapunzel is more than just a fairy tale.
Each of these 65 towers is built upon a much more ancient site. Most have crumbled with age, but if you view a map of Ireland with the locations of all these towers marked, you’ll notice something familiar. They form the layout of constellations such as The Big Dipper, Cassiopeia and more.
“All the towers appear to have been built to the same basic design: between forty-five and fifty-five feet in circumference at the base, the tower shaft consisting of two parallel circular block walls several feet apart, and the space between filled in with gravel. Strangely, they all had very shallow foundations, some going down only about eighteen inches below the ground. The circumference at the base and the thickness of the circular wall varied little; the doors and windows were also quite uniform from tower to tower….
Most of the tower doorways are raised at least nine to ten feet off the ground… Most towers have seven floors, with a single small window on each of the four middle levels. The top floor normally has four windows, each facing a cardinal point (North, South, East, West).”

Why were they built this way?
“Each door has a different level of dirt filling the base as if they were “tuned” like a pipe organ….I had long postulated that the towers were powerful amplifiers of radio resonance from the atmosphere generated by lightning flashes around the world…..The round towers proved to be powerful amplifiers in the alpha brain wave region, 2 to 24 Hz, in the electrical anesthesia region, 1000 to 3000 Hz, and the electronic induction heating region, 5000 Hz to 1000 KHz….It is fascinating that just above the surface of the ground to about 2 to 4 feet up there is a null of atmospheric frequencies that get stronger and stronger until at 9 to 15 feet above the surface they are extremely strong. The Irish monks were well aware of this for that is where they built their high doors. At every tower we measured there was a direct correlation between tower door height and the strongest waves…..That the highly amplified waves occur in the meditative and electrical anesthesia portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is of utmost significance. In 1963, G. Walter researched brain EEG waves from 0.5 to 3 Hz (Delta region) and found anti-infectious effects. There is an elegant but short list of research projects demonstrating the beneficial effects of low ELF wavelengths on sick people.”

Back to the princess…
We all know the story. Beautiful princess with super long hair stuck in a tower. Every day, the witch who took her from her parents and shut her away in the tower, came to visit. She would call out
“Rapunzel Rapunzel, let down your hair, so that I may climb the Golden Stair”.
One night a prince heard Rapunzel singing, came back and saw how the witch gained entrance to see the girl and came back when the coast was clear. He called out the same thing. In the original story, not the watered down version most of us got as children, Rapunzel’s belly started growing, and she asked the witch why her dress was getting tight. Oops. The witch cut off her hair and waited for the prince and tricked him into coming into the tower with her. She told him he would never see the princess again and cast him out of the tower, and he was blinded by the thorns.
Seems like ordinary fairy tale material, right? Consider the “Electric Universe” and this picture of hair-like filaments of charged particles. Rapunzel, is that you?
Or perhaps it’s Lady Godiva, another long-haired main character. She didn’t live in a tower but with her husband who was taxing the hell out of the people of Coventry. She begged him to stop causing such suffering of the people. He said he would grant her request if she rode through town naked. She accepted and issued a proclamation that everyone in the town stay inside with the shutters closed. She rode through town wearing only her long hair. Tom, (this is where “peeping Tom” came from) had drilled a hole in his shutters so he could steal a peek as Godiva passed, and as he did, he was struck blind. Godiva’s husband then abolished the heavy taxes.
Long hair. Men going blind. Starting to see a pattern yet?
If we look into the Sun we will damage our eyes, and the Sun is 150 million kms away. I don’t want to make this blog uber-long but there’s so much background material to put forth so that this all makes sense. Just know that the next blog will be about comets, plasma, charged particles, balls of fire, so I won’t go into it here and now.
Medusa.
Medusa?? Yes, Medusa. She was originally a beautiful nymph, until she was raped by the “Lord of the Sea” Poseidon and transformed into a monster with snakes for hair and was so hideous, that anyone looking at her would turn to stone. Perseus, was sent to cut off her head. When he did so, using a mirror, two offspring came from her neck: the winged horse Pegasus and the giant Chrysaor. According to Ovid, Perseus flew past Atlas, who was holding up the sky and Atlas turned to stone.
Snakes writhe like electrical filaments, like flowing hair.
Blinded for looking? Turned to stone for looking?
The twins spewing forth we will definitely get to in the next blog. (hint: comets)
Now this one may sound random at first, but I will include this little snippet because it does pertain to this topic, though there is no woman with long hair.
Genisis 19 (King James Bible) 23
The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar. 24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; 25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground. 26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
Turned to salt for looking.
On the other side of the world lived the God Quetzlcoatl. Translated, it means “plumed serpent”. He ruled what is now Mexico City and led its people to great prosperity. He fell in disgrace for violating his own laws and set himself on fire, and the flames rose to become the planet Venus. He vowed to return to his people some day. After this, all Toltec priests were called Quetzalcoatl. One of them clamed to be the second coming of Quetzlcoatl and became king for decades. Eventually his enemies sent him sailing east on a raft of snakes, vowing like the first Quetzlcoatl to return one day to his people.
Feathers. Snakes. Fire. Venus (comet).
In stories where you see hair, or snakes, or obviously fire, as we know fire is plasma, if you look past the physical human attributes and tie the story in to the plasma, the electric universe, patterns will start to emerge. EVERYWHERE!
Stay tuned for next story time when we’ll learn about the Chicago Fire.
Goodness, gracious, Great Balls of Fire!
