The obelisk was sacred to the ancient Egyptians, who created it in an effort to lift their pyramids into the sky and bring them closer to God. The bottom of an obelisk is a cube, representing the four directions and four elements, and the top is a pyramid. The Egyptians believed this shape stabilized and raised energy in a powerful way. Obelisks possess the power of the pyramid with the magic of a generator combined, and the result is an extraordinary channeler of balanced energy.
