Crop Circles

[looking4one]

Isn't it graduation time for engineering students about now? Do any of these things show up during winter months? OR are they seasonal?

The Ridgeway, nr Hackpen Hill, Wiltshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/h ... -june-2016

This crop circle appeared on the morning of June 23rd and is in almost the same position as the Dream-catcher formation of 2013. It measures approximately 130ft in diameter and is in a field of young green wheat.

The farmer has opened this field to visitors and is charging £3.00 per person with money going to the Brighter Futures cancer charity. You pay your money on entry to the field. Park at the top of Hackpen Hill, where the Ridgeway intersects the road, then walk along the ridgeway until you reach the field.

This is an extremely challenging image. Normally the crop circles do not show us such seemingly aggressive imagery and its meaning remains enigmatic. Some made a somewhat tenuous link between this image and the UK’s exit from the EU, but apart from the date this link seems more than tentative. We’ve had dolphins, and generic fish imagery, but sharks bearing their teeth?!

If this were to symbolise anything to me it would be more like the cannibalisation taking part in our society at present, whether thats the cannibalisation of our economies, or cultures as a whole (literally eating itself from the inside). The sharks are circling around a triquetra, a Celtic symbol of the trinity, or three as (or in) one – what might the triquetra symbolise in this context? Should one take this crop circle seriously, it’s a fascinating question.







Blackwood, nr Popham, Hampshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/p ... -june-2016

This gorgeous formation was reported on the 27th June 2016 and is in a field of young wheat. There was a formation at this location back in 2014, a six-pointed star, in exactly the same field.

The pattern is a diamond shape formed from circles in a six-fold relationship to one another. The formation looked like an emerald jewel in the landscape!

Most will instantly recognise this pattern as part of the flower of life design popularised by Drunvalo Melhisedek – you can read more about Drunvalo and his work by clicking on the link above. The ‘Flower of Life’ pattern is essentially an arrangement of circles, each with same diameter, these circles are repeated to create a six-fold flower design. From the framework this diagram creates it is possible extrapolate many other geometries, patterns and symbols from human culture – hence the perceived importance of the design. We have seen other crop circles using this very simple six-fold geometry in the past and in fact as a drawing exercise it is fantastic for improving accuracy when working with a compass!

As mentioned before on this website six has two distinct associations, one with harmony, love and balance, the second with structure, order and function. It’s one of the numbers we see with most frequency in crop circle design and is I think in part why we perceive a peaceful and benevolent aspect to the crop circle phenomenon.

Hackpen Hill, nr Broad Hinton, Wiltshire.
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/h ... -july-2016

There has already been one formation at Hackpen Hill this season (see the first on here). This second formation lies below the Ridgeway on the other side of the road from the chalk horse on the side of the escarpment. It is another formation to employ six-fold geometry and seems to marry circles and triangles – the relationship between unity and trinity. The formation measures approximately 120ft in diameter and is in a field of wheat.





Wilton Windmill, Wilton, Wilts.
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/w ... -july-2016

This pretty little formation appeared in a field by the side of the windmill at Wilton. It has been suggested that the pattern is made from two mirrored Golden Section spirals to create the heart-shape. One of the novel things about this formation is the strange ‘smile’ shape in the laid crop – it seems the trickster element of this phenomenon is ever with us!

Reigate Hill, Reigate, Surrey.
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/r ... -july-2016

There have been several depictions of the iconic ‘Alien Face’ in crop circles over the years, the most famous perhaps being the huge ‘Alien Face and Disc’ at Crabwood in Hampshire back in 2002. Whatever the alien is that seems to haunt our psyche it does seem that it is somehow connected in part with the crop circles. The classic alien face seems to be a major archetype of modern times, and therefore perhaps it would be a mistake to interpret it too literally as we have done with many stories about non-human visitors for many years. Perhaps if the alien archetype means anything it is the existence of a genuine unknown at the heart of our reality, that we have had periodic contact with over thousands as years, and interpreted as Gods in the past and as ETs in the present. However, I suspect both these interpretations are in fact cultural filters and what truly lies behind them is yet to be discovered. This formation looks like a feathered mask to me – I wonder what would would happen if we were to remove it – what might truly lie beneath? It’s one of the biggest questions we face and is intimately I think connected to a new state of human consciousness. Many people talk about ‘disclosure’, but I suspect that what disclosure is truly about is peeling back our cultural filters enough to reveal this unknown that persistently and increasingly resides in the midst of our minds, culture and reality.







Figsbury Ring, Firsdown, Wiltshire, UK. Reported 22nd July. Wheat.
http://www.temporarytemples.co.uk

Apart from waiting for the weather to paly ball (again) to go and photograph the feline formation at Figsbury Ring, we had to negotiate the danger zone which is very close to Porton Down, the most sensitive and secret experimental site in the UK. http://www.dark-places.org.uk/site/dstl-porton-down/

We had to get permission to fly into the area, and were told that we must not in any way fly into the zone which is marked by the tree line just below the hill fort. In fact the hill fort at Figsbury Ring has the danger zone going right through the middle of the ring.

This crop circle at Figsbury Ring, Wiltshire is thought to represent the Egyptian goddess Sekhmet. Some have tagged this formation 'The Space Cat'.

Sekhmet is a warrior goddess as well as goddess of healing. She is depicted as a lioness, the fiercest hunter known to the Egyptians. It was said that her breath formed the desert. She was seen as the protector of the pharaohs and led them in warfare. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sekhmet http://www.ancientegyptonline.co.uk/sekhmet.html

The formation itself is well constructed, and is very large at about 400ft, and is in wheat.

Figsbury Ring, nr Firsdown, Wiltshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/f ... -july-2016

This huge formation was placed just south of Figsbury Ring hill fort, close to Salisbury in Wiltshire. It measures upwards of 300ft in diameter and is in a field of maturing wheat. The design is extremely crisp and the whole formation is beautifully symmetrical. The formation has caused a stir in some circles as the design seems quite contrived or even comical, while others have connected it to Bastet the Ancient Egyptian cat Goddess – as this feline seems to have a sun disc above its head.

Pretty pictures. Aren't those college kids getting good at creating these art works?

[looking4one]

Here is how they do it.

[looking4one]

Even the die hard believers are changing their opinions about crop circles. IF you are able to watch the full video, you have great patience. IF you FF to the conclusion paragraphs, you will see that the crop circles are man-made.

Part 1.


Part 2.


Even the crop circle creators speak out in part 2. They explain that basic geometry has everything to do with the "building blocks" of these human produced hoax circles.

The warnings contained within the crop circles......June 2016 (Again, the video is monotone and rather boring) This video also shows the relationship between 911 and crop circle warnings.


That day has come and gone and the warnings with impending doom, for the planet Earth has not come to fruition.

It is a just a bunch of engineering students, showing off their ability to create hoaxes that the CTs gobble up like green kool-aid. My hat is off to these kids.

Great work, you got it all figured out in an hour and a half. Don't forget about 'Doug and Dave'!

Crop circle formation by bright flash of light (website)

"We were the first to reach the formation at 4 AM (July 7, 2007) after seeing a very bright flash of light. The wheat circles were raised 6 inches above the ground so when we stepped in, the plants crunched under our feet like we were stepping on delicate crystals."

Chilcomb Ranges, nr Winchester, Hampshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/c ... ugust-2016

This formation is essentially a 10 x 10 square grid, which gives a total of 100 small squares. Each of the small squares has then been divided by two horizontally, which gives a total of 200 triangles – then rather unexpectedly just twenty three of those triangles have been flattened. Twenty-three is a culturally enigmatic number, immortalised in several books and films – such as The Number 23 starring Jim Cary – where he sees the number everywhere! The 23 enigma refers to the belief that most incidents and events are directly connected to the number 23. Cynically, people often see such mysteries as a self fulfilling prophecy or confirmation bias, but this fails to look at the role consciousness and synchronicity play in such cultural phenomena – which is perhaps the most interesting thing about these kinds of urban myth. There is an interesting parallel to be made with elements of the crop circle phenomenon, where similar synchronicities around number abound. We need to think a little more deeply about such events.

Mathematically speaking, 23 is a prime number – the ninth prime to be exact. It is also the sum of 5, 7 & 11 – more primes! 2 + 3 = 5 a number we have seen much of during the 2016 season.

Etchilhampton Hill, Wiltshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/e ... ugust-2016

This very pretty formation is close to where the large formation of 2015 was placed. This formation is not as large as the one last year but measures approximately 160-180ft in diameter. At it’s most basic this is a classic ringed circle, but it’s beauty lies in the fantastic floor lay inside the centre circle. Amongst the weaving and myriad of swirls is a unicursal hexagram – unicursal meaning in a continuous line. We have seen this kind of hexagram at least once before at the end of 2014 at Ackling Dyke in Dorset. In the unicursal hexagram the lines are not equal, nor are its points equidistant, but it will still fit inside a circle with all six points touching the perimeter. There is a particularly fine standing ring of crop at the centre of this formation which centres the entire pattern in the laid crop.

Challenge to the believers: post some examples where the formations do not intersect with the tractor lines that exist in most of those fields. Why do they always cross these tracks? I couldn't find any that fit within two sets of tracks but did not touch them.

Bratton Camp & Westbury White Horse, Wiltshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/b ... ugust-2016
Bratton Camp is a large Iron Age hill fort which sits on the top of Bratton Down at the western edge of the Salisbury Downs. The views from the top of this hill are magnificent and it’s popular with paragliders, walkers and kite flyers. The Westbury White horse sits on the eastern side of the hill and is approximately 400 years old, unlike the many other such horses in the Wiltshire landscape this one has had its original chalk covered with painted concrete to keep its appearance and shape. It is a strikingly beautiful location for crop circles, and there have been several around Bratton Camp in years past, this one lies not directly beneath the White Horse, but to the North of the horse. You can read more about the area here.

The circle is a very pretty six-fold flower with unusually shaped petals which are then decorated with parabolic net-like patterns. The centre contains a particularly fine standing ring, complete with off centre swirled crop.





Ansty, nr Salisbury, Wiltshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/a ... ugust-2016
Visiting: This crop circle was to the public and is located at Ansty Farm, access is via the farm shop for £5 which includes a drink. Opening times are Tuesday to Saturday 9:30am – 5:30pm – Sundays & Mondays 10:00am – 4:00pm – more information at: anstypyo.co.uk. Monies collected are being donated to Air Ambulance & Stars Appeal. We hear this circle has now been harvested.

The formation is simply huge, measuring approximately 450ft in diameter and it all but fills the small field in which it appeared. It is a very elaborate design incorporating, leaves, inter-woven circles and much more. The crop is very mature wheat. We flew over this formation several days after its appearance and the design was holding up very well even after a raft of visitors. We flew early in morning and as its often the case in mid-late August there was a striking heat inversion clearly visible in the atmosphere which only added the the ambience of the flight.

As you might imagine, this crop circle has courted some pretty intense controversy with opinion split as to its origins. The design bears a striking resemblance to a logo for American company ‘Mothership Glass’ which makes hand blown glass products. On the other hand, the farmer, his staff and neighbours deny all knowledge of the crop circle until the 12th of August when it was reported and deny that they have been paid or given permission for the crop circle to be made. They also deny seeing anyone in the field at all – which is very near the farm buildings. To be clear, the crop circle is not an exact replica of the Mothership Glass logo, the words have been replaced by a series of very intricate glyphs – 20 in all – and there are several interpretations for these – I’ll update this page with more information as I have it. However it got there, it is well worth a visit and the money is going to two very worthy charities.





Nursteed Farm, nr Devizes, Wiltshire
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/n ... ugust-2016
Just when it might be thought the season was over, along comes another circle! The formation was reported on the 17th of August in a field of ripe wheat and measured approximately 200ft in diameter. It is a six-fold formation made from circles and hexagons and there have been many comparisons made between this crop circle and Metatron’s Cube – and there are definite similarities between the two. Metatron’s Cube is a famous mandala of Sacred Geometry, its meanings are many and yet elusive. It marries well with the ‘Flower-of-Life’ as they share a six-fold geometry.





Woodway Bridge, All Cannings, Wilts
http://temporarytemples.co.uk/project/a ... ugust-2016
We were taken by surprise when this formation was reported. We had thought the crop circle season was over. So many of the fields are now harvested, so to find one still standing was lucky.

This formation measures 130-150ft in diameter and is in very ripe wheat. It’s a double ring which contains thirteen arcs and thirteen small circles placed on those arcs. There is a single satellite circle outside the main perimeter of the formation too. The flattened circle nested in the arcs is particularly beautiful with radial and concentric lays at work.

The meaning of this formation remains elusive – some have suggested a code – but this is far from certain. The double use of the number thirteen is interesting. Thirteen is the number of transformation, and is a number seem with regularity in the very best crop circles. If this is the final formation of the season, the integration and emphasis on this number is exciting – what transformations await?!

[goatboy]

Funny, no one took me up on my challenge. Think we all know why.

Every single picture in the above post has a pattern that intersects an existing tractor track. Wonder why?
