The Theories
One story says that some curious neighbors did see how Leedskalnin moved the stones. They say he placed his hands on the stone to be lifted... and sang. Somehow this levitated the great rocks.
According to an article in Fate magazine, �gsome teenagers spying on him one evening claimed they saw him �efloat coral blocks through the air like hydrogen balloons,�f but no one took them seriously.�h
Frank Joseph, in the Fate magazine article, also writes, �gAlternative science investigators suggest that Leedskalnin somehow learned the secret of the �eworld grid,�f an invisible pattern of energy lines surrounding the Earth which concentrates points of telluric power where they intersect. It was here, at one of these intersections of Earth energy, that he was supposedly able to move his prodigious stone blocks using the unseen power of our planet.�h Yet that still does no explain how Leedskalnin was able to tap this power, and others cannot.
Coral Castle quotes J. Cathie, a captain flying with National Airways Corp. of New Zealand, as saying: �gMeasurements from the Coral Castle position to the zero-degree and 90-degree longitude lines, when they passed through the equator, also yielded harmonics related to light and gravity. The final check of the distance between Coral Castle and grid pole A in the north, dispelled any doubt about the site being in an ideal position to allow Leedskalnin to erect the huge blocks of coral with relative ease. Measurements from all major points gave the geometric harmonics necessary for the manipulation of anti-gravity.�h Cathie also believes that this energy grid is also responsible for many UFO sightings.
In an article by called "The Coral Castle Mystery" in Atlantis Rising, author Christopher Dunn asserts: �gWhat if there�fs no such thing as gravity? And the natural forces we already know about are sufficient to explain the noted phenomena we have labeled as gravity? Perhaps Leedskalnin�fs means of working with the Earth�fs gravitational pull was nothing more complicated than devising a means by which the alignment of magnetic elements within his coral blocks was adjusted to face the streams of individual magnets he claims are issuing forth from the Earth with a like repelling pole.�h
When he was personally asked how he managed the feat, Leedskalnin replied only that he understood the laws of weight and leverage. He is quoted as saying, �gI have discovered the secrets of the pyramids. I have found out how the Egyptians and the ancient builders in Peru, Yucatan, and Asia, with only primitive tools, raised and set in place blocks of stone weighing many tons.�h
According the The Enigma of Coral Castle, �gEd flatly disagreed with modern science, and claimed that the scientists were wrong, �ethat nature is simple.�f He believed all matter consisted of individual magnets, and it is the movement of these magnets within materials, and through space, that produce measurable phenomena, magnetism, and electricity. These concepts �einvolved the relationship of the Earth to celestial alignments.�f He claimed to see beads of light which he believed to be the physical presence of nature�fs magnetism and life force, or what we term today, chi.�h
