As I recall, ley lines are the names given to the lines of energy that
are naturally supposed to criss-cross the earth. The ancients who built
Stonehenge, the Pyramids etc. are supposed to have been able to detect
these lines of earth power and built their monuments, temples etc. on
the nexus of powerful ley lines.

This is supposed to link the area to earth energy, inspiring creativity,
spirituality, growth etc. I guess "New Age" literature will have some info
on them, as well as books on ancient mythology. Strangely enough, the
'ley line' concept shows up in many disparate mythologies.

I have known of the concept since my teens. I'm not too sure as to whether
I believe it or not, but its possible, and you know, there are some places
that you stand that just FEEL more empowering than others.
