In Ireland, and to a lesser extent Scotland, in seemingly unconnected locations, there can be found more than 60 enigmatic round towers, often over 30 meters tall and nearly uniform in their construction. Believed to have been built between the 7th and 10th centuries CE, the Roman Catholic Church long ago laid claim to them. Yet who built them--and why--is completely unknown, and even their date of construction is debatable. Presenting a professional dowser’s radiesthetic and magnetic analysis of the round towers of Ireland, Christopher Freeland examines two previously unexplored yet fundamental facts common to all of the round towers: that they are built over the crossing of underground waterways and that every stone of each tower is laid with its negative magnetic polarity pointing upward. Explaining the basics of radiesthesia, the energetic science of dowsing, the author shows how siting the towers above underground water crossings has far-reaching ramifications for the health and well-being of humans, animals, and plants in the surrounding area and aligns with the energy-harmonizing practices of feng shui and vastu. He reveals how the systematic magnetic orientation of the stones used in the construction of each tower’s double walls results in the phenomenon of low-field magnetism, which, along with the towers’ precise placement, allows them access to the Earth’s telluric forces and further enhances their energetic effects on the surrounding environment. Investigating previous research on the round towers, the author explores the types of stone used, speculates on how many towers once existed, and firmly debunks the assertion that they were built by the Church.
