Pseudoscience belief that pyramids confer impossible powers
Pyramid power refers to the belief that the ancient Egyptian pyramids and objects of similar shape can confer a variety of benefits. Among these assumed properties are the ability to preserve foods,[1] sharpen or maintain the sharpness of razor blades,[2] improve health,[3] function "as a thought-form incubator",[4] trigger sexual urges,[5] and cause other effects. Such unverified conjectures regarding pyramids are collectively known as pyramidology.
There is no scientific evidence that pyramid power exists.[6][7][8]
