    A STAR CORRELATION IN ARIZONA

    by Gary A. David, CPAK Conference, October 2008 Copyright 2008

    any readers are familiar with the Orion Correlation Theory proposed by Robert Bauval in his 1994 bestseller The Orion Mystery. This theory states that the belt stars of the Orion constellation correspond to the three major pyramids on the Giza Plateau in Egypt.

    Few people realize, however, that many Orion Correlations exist around the world, including one in northern Arizona.

    For thousands of years the ancestors of the Hopi Indians, called the Hisatsinom (formerly known as the Anasazi), have inhabited the American Southwest, building stone villages, or pueblos.

    Between c. 1050 AD and 1300 AD a pattern of villages began to take shape on the Arizona desert that resembles Orionthe most important constellation in Hopi cosmology. This Terrestrial Orion closely mirrors the Celestial Orion (its counterpart), with a prehistoric city corresponding to each major star in the constellation.

    Over a period of 250 years a template reflecting the constellation Orion was established on the Colorado Plateau. Either an ancestral Hopi ruin site or a Hopi village directly corresponds to each major star in Orion. This grouping of stars also synchronizes the Hopi winter solstice ceremony known as Soyal.

    This is the way Orion appears in the sky in the northern hemisphere.

    In Arizona, Orion-on-the-ground
    is reversed 180 from Orion-in-the-sky. Thus, its head points south instead of north exactly like the stellar template in Egypt. Incidentally, the word zona (as in Ari-zona) literally means the belt stars of Orion. Hopi for star: sohu. Egyptian word for Orion: sahu.

    ORION

    ORION(REVERSED)

    The Hopi have settled primarily on three mesas, each about 7 miles apart: First, Second, & Third. These correspond to Orions belt stars: Alnitak, Alnilam, and Mintaka.

    List of Village / Star Correlations


    On First Mesa: Walpi, Sichomovi, Hano = the triple supergiant Alnitak (left belt star). On Second Mesa: Shungopovi, Shipaulovi, & Mishongnovi = the supergiant Alnilam (middle belt star). On Third Mesa: Old Oraibi and Hotevilla = the double (binary) giant Mintaka (right belt star).

    The ruins Betatakin and Keet Seel in Navajo Nat. Mont. = the double (binary) supergiant Rigel (Orions left foot). The ruins of White House, Antelope House, and Mummy Cave in Canyon de Chelly Nat. Mont. = the triple supergiant Saiph (Orions right foot). Wupatki Nat. Mont. = giant Bellatrix (Orions left shoulder). Homolovi Ruins State Park = the variable supergiant Betelguese (Orions right shoulder). Walnut Canyon Nat. Mont. = Meissa (Orions head).

    A star configuration nearly 200 miles long has been created on the Arizona desert (blue lines). Not only that, it is oriented in order to incorporate a number of solstice inter-relationships between ancient villages or sacred mountains (yellow lines).

    As Above, so Below. Thoth

    Many of the stars of Orion are very distant. The belt stars, for instance, are 1500 1600 light-years away. Pi 3 in the constellations left arm, however, is only 26 light-years from us!

    Pi 3 Orionis
    It is similar in size and temperature to our Sun. It may be a binary star. It is # 2185 in the SETI Star Catalogue. It is among Project Phoenixs Best and Brightest Candidates for having exo-planets and ET life. It is one of NASAs top 100 target stars for the Terrestrial Planet Finder telescope observatories. (Planned launch date: 2012.)

    The Left Arm of Orion Reaches Toward Grand Canyon!


    Long ago the Hopi made a template in the shape of Orion on the Arizona desert. The left hand of this pattern, which includes the star Pi 3 Orionis, rests in Grand Canyon. At the bottom of this amazing geological formation is a natural travertine dome. The Hopi consider this to be their Sipapuni, or "place of emergence" from a previous underworld existence they call the Third World.

    Aerial view of the Sipapuni on the Little Colorado River.

    The ultimate purpose: Did Hopi star elders create the Orion Correlation to identify their celestial origin in the left hand of the constellation Orion?

    Google Earth satellite photo from an altitude of 175 miles above northern Arizona. The distance between Betatakin and Canyon de Chelly is slightly stretched in relation to the constellationabout 12 miles. The distance between Walnut Canyon and Homolovi is also stretched10 miles. Still, this close pattern cannot be considered a coincidence,
