Magnetic Current

Product Information

Having spent the best part of a decade scrutinising Magnetic Current and Ed’s other booklet, Mineral, Vegetable, and Animal Life, I can safely say that Coral Castle theorists have missed the mark on this one. What better information do we have at our disposal in understanding this mysterious accomplishment than the writing and monument that Leedskalnin himself left behind? McClure and Heffron explain why Ed’s work, the intuitive starting point in our unravelling of this fascinating riddle, has been neglected by most Coral Castle theorists: These are the natural tools with which Poole decrypts and translates the brilliance of Leedskalnin’s ideas. With few exceptions, the objects are made from single pieces of stone that weigh on average 15 short tons (14t) each. The largest stone weighs 30 short tons (27t) and the tallest are two monoliths standing 25ft (7.6m) each.

Edward Leedskalnin in Latvia, circa 1910. Collection of Latvia’s historical images by Māris Goldmanis, Researcher at University of Latvia. The emotional side of Ed Leedskalnin's life story drew the attention of authors, songwriters and performers, including:How Leedskalnin managed to transport and assemble the giant megaliths at Coral Castle is still a mystery ( public domain ) According to a number of local residents interviewed through the years, Ed would often look to the sky when speaking of her. As if picturing her in his mind.’ xix Now about the sphere magnet. If you have a strong magnet you can change the poles in the sphere in any side you want or take the poles out so the sphere will not be a magnet anymore. From this you can see that the metal is not the real magnet. The real magnet is the substance that is circulating in the metal. Each particle in the substance is an individual magnet by itself, and both North and South Pole individual magnets. They are so small that they can pass through everything. In fact they can pass through easier than through the air. They are in constant motion, they are running one kind of magnets against the other kind, and if guided in the right channels they possess perpetual power. The North and South Pole magnets they are cosmic force, they hold together this earth and everything on it. Each North and South Pole magnet is equal in strength, but the strength of each individual magnet doesn’t amount to anything. To be of practical use they will have to be in great numbers.

Andrew Peterson recorded a song, "The Coral Castle", in his Carried Along (2002) studio album that evoked Leedskalnin's broken heart story. Coral Castle". SouthFlorida.com.

Standing next to them, it’s nearly impossible.’ viiiThis leaving behind of preconceived ideas is what I’ve spent the best part of a decade doing, to do the mystery and ingenuity of Edward Leedskalnin justice. I realised that if I were to be successful in my work, I had to decide that everything I had ever learned or been told about the Coral Castle was wrong. With a blank slate, on the basis of zero assumptions, and using the tools of observation, deductive reasoning and the instructions that Ed gives in his books, I set about my task. The Secret Schematic and the Perpetual Motion Holder One would think such a claim would send scientists from throughout the world scurrying to Ed’s door, but he seems to have been mostly ignored.’ xii The Castle of Secrets" is an episode of Leonard Nimoy's program In Search of... (1976–1982) that includes a dramatization of Leedskalnin moving the stones with minimal effort. [5] Correct! Leedkslanin’s famous Sweet Sixteen isn’t a girl as relayed by McClure, Heffron and the rest of the history books. The Earth is the sixteenth celestial alignment in Leedskalnin’s Sweet Sixteen. A final thought

Adding to the mystery are the myriad remnants of an electromagnetic device in a chamber beneath the Coral Castle. There, one finds wires wrapped around bottles and odd devices with magnets and chains, appearing to resemble a generator of some sort. Next to the generator are two long metal poles reaching down beneath the ground, similar to the anode and cathode of a battery. Cuban-American author Daína Chaviano, dedicated a whole chapter ("Very close to my heart") from her novel The Island of Eternal Love to the history of Coral Castle and his builder Edward Leedskalnin [22] The construction of Coral Castle is riddled with mystery. How could one person move over 1100 tons of large stone slabs needed to build this massive structure? While Leedskalnin never explicitly disclosed his building secrets, he did leave writings suggesting a series of experiments using magnets, hinting that his methods came through study of the earth’s magnetic fields. Did Leedskalnin, as some have claimed, discover how to overcome gravity?

His was a generation who knew accomplishments by the sweat of the brow. It wasn’t mysticism but hard work, this is how Ed really accomplished the massive project.’ vii

At this point the most perceptive among us will have spotted something: the above image of the East Wall displays just fifteen alignments. How can this be? In The Leedskalnin Codex I suggest that Ed ‘looked to the sky’ when speaking of his Sweet Sixteen, because his Sweet Sixteen was, in fact, up in the sky. Between Ed’s arrivals in New York in 1912 and in Florida City in 1923, he moved often, spending time living in the Pacific Northwest and in Washington, among other places. At some point during the winter of 1922-1923, an estate agent called Ruben Moser found Ed lying in a heap on the side of the road. Moser helped Ed into the car and drove him home. Ed was seriously ill with a respiratory disease and was on the verge of dying. It has been suggested by eyewitness statements that Ed had been wandering around with a ‘witching rod’, capable of determining the presence of water or ‘energy’ in the earth. One eyewitness claimed that when asked what the rod was for, Ed just said, ‘when I find it, I’ll know it.’ iii William Stansfield. "The Enigma of Coral Castle". Skeptic. 12 (2).

Man of Mystery

What does Radford mean by his claim that Ed built the castle using ‘hard work’ and ‘the principles of leverage’? In addition to the limited information provided by the Coral Castle museum about Ed’s tools, Radford cites a single source to defend his stance—the account of Orval Irwin, who ‘explains, through photographs, drawings, and schematics, how it was done’. v Recent discoveries are beginning to suggest that the temples were not just the location of the teaching… they were the teaching. An astonishing example is the Temple of Luxor. After recent revelations, some now call it the Temple Of Man.’ xv
