Many ancient peoples built their sacred sites in dead straight lines. The magical paths involved astronomy and geomancy, and were used for spirit flight both by the living as they slept or travelled in shamanic trance, and by spirits of the dead, both recently and long deceased. Danny Sullivan was editor of the renowned Ley Hunter magazine. Here he introduces the complex subject of Ley lines, giving examples from around the world, including many from the British Isles, where this psychic science has been practiced by wizards for a very long time.

excellent series of books on sacred geometry
The wooden book series is perfect for those new to sacred geometry. This book on leys is a small pocket book that acts as a quick and easy reference book. There are probbaly some better books out there but I have bcome a huge fan of these useful occult reference books

OK
Quite good, but not confined to UK as said, much is overseas. I'd wanted UK ley line information and maps re where they are. At least the major ones, so not quite what I personally needed. Otherwise, good.

it's a good place to start
Such a cute, magical-looking little book! It gives an overview of the theory of ley lines, but if you want more in-depth information, you will have to do further research. Anyway, it's a good place to start!

Short Intro to Ley Lines
Leys are possible ancient alignments of ruins, henges and other relics of the past. Here, long-time ley researcher Sullivan gives readers a quick primer to the topic in the informative style of the Wooden Books series. Te study of leys has been corrupted by UFO Fundies, those who can find leys anywhere and a variety of other fringe thinkers. But some leys may have signficance. Not all are "spirit paths" like the subtitle suggests, though lumped into leys are creepy old funeral paths that go back generations or longer. If you have already read Sullivan's in-depth Ley Lines: The Greatest Landscape Mystery , this little book will be old news and won't add anything. If this book sparks your interest, his other book is a must for the history of leys and a compendium of the best ones (and were to find them). See also Stonehenge and Glastonbury - The Isle Of Avalon in this series.
