The Richat Structure, famously known as the Eye of the Sahara, is a massive circular geological anomaly in Mauritania that serves as a profound energetic anchor for the African continent. Spanning nearly 30 miles in diameter, this domed anticline is viewed as a primary planetary chakra point, where the Earth’s internal magmatic forces once pushed upward to create a perfect, symmetrical bullseye of concentric rings. While geologists attribute its form to millions of years of selective erosion of alternating hard and soft rock layers, many spiritual seekers perceive the structure as a dormant cosmic portal, a place where the grounding energy of the desert meets a high-vibrational celestial frequency that has guided travelers and astronauts alike for generations.
A significant focus of modern metaphysical speculation identifies the Richat Structure as the most likely physical location of the lost civilization of Atlantis. Proponents of this theory point to the striking correlation between the structure’s concentric rings and the detailed descriptions provided by Plato in his dialogues, Timaeus and Critias. From this perspective, the “Eye” is not merely a natural formation but a residual imprint of an advanced, harmonized society that flourished during the era of the Green Sahara, approximately 11,600 years ago. The presence of marine fossils and salt deposits within the rings is often cited as evidence of a cataclysmic oceanic event that transitioned the city into the spirit realm, leaving behind a skeletal limestone resonator that continues to pulse with the wisdom of an ancient, sunken age.
This location was suggested for the vortex map on 9-29-2022 by Daniel K. who asked: The Richat Structure Better Known As The Eye Of The Sahara Was The True Location Of Atlantis. Do You Think There Could Be An Energy Vortex There?

Note: There is currently no scientific method to prove that vortexes exist. Just because a location is on the vortex map, does not prove there is a vortex there. What it means, is that someone suggested the location and provided evidence or a personal account, and/or we found corroborating evidence from other sources. We do this so other visitors to the site can send us their opinion on the validity of the vortex claim, to build a consensus.
