 ASTROLOGICAL IMPORTANCE
The openings found on the north and south faces of the Cheops pyramid pointed to the
positions of important stars in the Egyptian religion of the time, and were passages so
that the pharaoh's soul could commune with the gods represented by these stars.
Just like the three stars in Orion, the three pyramids are not perfectly aligned -- there is
a slight deviation at one end. Krupp draws attention to the fact that, in order for there to
be a possible correspondence between the stars and the pyramids, it is necessary to turn
the map of Egypt upside down: the smallest of the pyramids, that of Menkaureans, only
corresponds to a projection on the ground of Egypt. position that the star Delta of Orion
occupied in 10,500 BCE if the map of the sky is oriented to the north and that of Egypt,
to the south.
