Verona: esoteric routes under the "guide" the sun
Nothing to do with current New Age or the "fixed" current wizards and vampires. But perhaps the "magic Verona 'discovery in the last century crab by the scholar Umberto (1904-1970) could open the unexplored frontier of tourism esoteric. Perhaps with success. A cultural alternative in a circle that encompasses the city of Rome, with the San Pietro hill, first settlement, as a point of departure and arrival. To take the lead, the sun. The idea is to
Cametti Lucia (An-Pdl), chairman of the council for culture, encouraged and supported by the Councillor Erminia Perbellini Henry Scoggins Pellini and Luigi, two students of local history and its esoteric aspects. The preview of the initiative, which will soon be detailed in a conference, was presented yesterday at Palazzo Barbieri is no coincidence on the day of the Solstice winter.
"The Roman Verona is perfectly aligned with the path of the sun in the sky, which is unique in the world. Or rather, Vicenza also has the same orientation, but "wrong" to some degree, "explains Scoggins and Pellini. "Crab first sensed that our city responded to the Vitruvian rules to take advantage of solar heat. The urban structure is developed between the point at which the star is located in the Summer Solstice, that is behind the castle Piloton Montorio, and where to set the winter solstice, which coincides with the church of Saint Lucia Extra . In the middle, passes in a straight line drawn north-south direction, which coincides with the Roman Cardo. " Sun rising and setting sun: metaphor of human life in astronomical and geographical key.
metaphor which is repeated on the map esoteric, in the footsteps of an unknown hero of the city's founder, developed along a circle on the axis of the Thistle. Departure, the San Pietro hill: a place sacred to the Romans, who had built the temple of Janus, the god Janus, the "father of the morning." The light then tap the apse of San Giovanni in Valle, which stands on the ruins dell'Orphanum, tower with eight columns, the symbol of the sun gear. The other stops: the Organum, Roman building in a military area, replaced by the church of Santa Maria in Organo, Via Stella, home of the stores of grain, and place of nourishment, in Santa Maria Solaro, or the Cathedral, then the thermal zone for the purification and finally the church of Santo Stefano to the Knights, the site of a cemetery, a symbol of earthly end, but rises again, like the sun.
"I think that a tourist esoteric formula, focusing on the culture, not the cheesy taste for the macabre, it appears attractive for young people," says Cametti. Yet not without a touch of mystery. They say the researchers, "crab, buried at the Cemetery, he wanted an unmarked grave." (L.CO.)
