Most residents of Sedona can name the four commonly regarded Sedona vortexes. If you ask 20-Sedonians what a vortex is, you will likely hear 20-different explanations. You could conclude that it’s all made-up or, perhaps, it's personal to each person that you asked. They will each have an opinion and some will answer with a great deal of passion.
Without question, the scenic beauty of Sedona causes pause in most people. The four vortexes of Sedona -- Bell Rock, Cathedral Rock, Airport Mesa and Boynton Canyon -- certainly possess the beauty to stir feelings.
The Native Americans that lived in and around Sedona considered it a sacred place, a place for ceremony. Sweat lodges and medicine wheels were the vehicle used to “connect” to the land. It is the land that holds the energy most will tell you. Today, people study the sacred geometry and Ley Lines they believe Sedona is home to.
To my knowledge, there is no scientific proof of Sedona’s vortexes. For some, this means they don’t exist. The frontiers of science are forever advancing. One-hundred years ago, most “science” that is now a part of our daily lives (computer, cell phones, etc) didn’t exist. Man cannot explain much of what exists in space, yet it does exist.
When we personally visit Sedona’s vortexes, we don’t go there looking to find something, yet when we leave, it seems that we did. The magic is in the eye of the beholder.
