its disappearing indigenous people, the Yavapai People.

"Many people don't realize that Native Americans never lived in Sedona"

Question: Is what vortex tour companies claim that Native American people never lived in Sedona true?

The answer is NO! It is in fact purely false! Yavapai People lived in Sedona and still come to Sedona every year in February to celebrate
their ancestry with an 'Emergence ceremony' at Boynton Canyon, now the Canyon has also become the place for a Mega Resort.

Question: Tour guides claim that the Native American or Yavapai People do not live in Sedona because it is too Sacred for them, is it true?
Answer is No, the real reason is that they were pushed off from the land by the white man. Source: www.yavapai-apache.org/

Do the indigenous Yavapai People believe in the electromagnetic vortex energy that Tourists and New Agers believe are present in Sedona?
No! They do not believe in that at all. In fact they call the New Agers of Sedona the "Crystal Huggers".
The Sedona Vortex concept is only a 'tourist trap' to them. Most people will agree.

What about all the famous so-called 'TWISTED' desert junipers Trees 'magically twisted' by the spiraling vortex?
Fact verses fiction. Are they truly twisted because of the Powerful Sedona Energy Vortex that is sold to naive tourists?

OF COURSE NOT!!!!

The distinct NATURAL shape of the 'Juniperus Osteoma' is to be twisted. A natural phenomena common to that genome.
Some of the most 'TWISTED' Tree species on planet Earth, are the trees of the Desert Juniper family (Utah Juniper).
Commonly found living all over the South-West part of the United States, Utah, Arizona and Northern Mexico.
Here is a few links on that subject. http://www.science-projects.com/TreeTwist/TreeTwist.htm

To the long time residents that know the reality about the geology of Sedona,
they called themselves the people that live in Sedona before the Vortex showed up.
It is just a false conviction that is not based on facts. But purely for tourism and money.

In fact the Sedona vortex concept was introduced in 1987 by a self-proclaimed 'psychic' named Paige Bryant,
that now has moved to Asheville NC and is creating the same false ideology of electromagnetic energy.
Geologist at NAU (Northern Arizona University) and the USGS do not support the pseudo-science
or false claims of electromagnetic anomalies called  'vortex' or 'vortices" in Sedona Arizona.

Definition of a so-called 'vortex' given to ignorant tourists:
"A vortex is a giant magnet of energy."

The simple proof is using a conventional compass. If it points north and does not spin inside
the eye of the so-called 'spiraling' vortex that proves there is no geomagnetic anomaly whatsoever.
What is real? Find out if the compass will point North toward Flagstaff AZ.

(PS. Notice that NO so-called 'Vortex' spot is designated  by the US Forest Service as  a real 'Vortex' for the tourist
attraction, even though people will have to pay to park there, it is not a special place of attraction but a hiking trail or nice
look-out view, only because there is no USGS, no geological or scientific facts supporting the illusory 'vortexes'. Just a tourist trap.)

Know the simple Truth about the illusory hoax called "energy vortexes" and don't be taken advantage of, financially by snake-oil salesman.
