Astronomical Alignment in Egyptian Pyramids
also the structure of 3 / 60 can be perceived as HM 3 / HM 6 with South represented by HM 3 and North by HM 6

THE SPHINX
The Sphinx, which embodies the body of a lion and the head of a pharaoh, is believed to be the head of Khafre and his guardian spirit for his entire burial complex. Carved from the natural limestone of Giza, the sphinx has disintegrated over the years, entire pieces dropping off to the desert floor below. Date Built: undetermined
Base: 187 feet (57 m) in length HM 7
Total Weight: undetermined
Width: Face is 20 feet (6 m) wide HM 2
Height: Total height is 66 feet (20 m), 30 feet (9.15 m) high from chin to head HM 3 / HM 3
Construction Material: Soft limestone
HM 7 + HM 2 + HM 3 + HM 3 = HM 6
Targeting Stars
According to Bauval (author, The Orion Mystery), the Great Pyramid was built in such a way that two of the four shafts emanating from the King's and Queen's chamber are aligned to due north, while the other two are aligned to due south. These four shaft thus target the meridian, which is an imaginary line that joins the north and south poles, passing directly over an observer's zenith. It is believed that in circa 2,500 BC, each one of these shafts targeted a special star as it culminated at the meridian.
From the King's Chamber, the northern shaft (32 degree 28') HM 6 was aimed at the ancient Pole star, Thuban (Alpha Draconis) in the constellation of the Dragon, which the Pharaohs associated with 'cosmic pregnancy and gestation'. The southern shaft (45 degrees 14') HM 5 was aimed at Al Nitak (Zeta Orionis), the brightest of the three stars of the Orion's belt, which the ancient Egyptians identified with Osiris (HM 5 ), their high god of resurrection and rebirth and the legendary bringer of civilization to the Nile Valley.
From the Queen's Chamber, the northern shaft (39 degrees) HM 3 was aimed at the star Kochab (Beta Ursa Minor), associated by the ancients with 'cosmic regeneration' and the immortality of the soul, in the constellation of the Little Bear. The southern shaft (39 degree 30') HM 6 was aimed at the star Sirius (Alpha Canis Major) in the constellation of the Great Dog. The star Sirius was associated by the ancients with the goddess Isis, cosmic mother of the kings of Egypt.
These four stars that the shafts of the Great Pyramid targeted were of ritual importance within the 'Osiris cycle'of beliefs. It is also believed that this particular alignment of the pyramid could not have been accidental, for the position of the four stars changes with time due to the effects of precession.
