Crop Circle Season Begins
Kal Cobalt
On June 1, a 300-foot crop circle was found near Barbury Castle, a hotbed for crop circle activity. Though initially appearing somewhat more humble than circles which have come before, analysis of the "ratchet" design has left many experts breathless with the complexity hidden within its angles.
Crop circle followers who find this new pattern vaguely familiar may recall the stunning 1991 triangle pictogram formed in the same location. The pictogram depicted the same ratchet extending from one corner of the triangle.
Mathematicians studying the new formation have made the startling discovery that pi to the tenth decimal point is encoded within the ratchet (3.14159265358), although there is some debate over whether this is "all" the ratchet has to say on pi-related matters. The number 666 also seems to be relevant to this formation.
Other experts also locate a solar system map within the ratchet, possibly pointing toward August 9, 2014.
Reports from the ground indicate that the lay of the formation is quite clean and bears no boot or plank marks. Throughout the formation, barley was observed bent close to the ground but not broken, and the famous "bent node" phenomenon was also observed.

Three Circles
Ellipsis.
[. . .]
I was thinking about these three circle too. The best I could come up with was 3.141592653. . .
Yes
indeed

More links please!
Hi Kal,
Can you provide links to explanations of the solar map and 666 connection? I read the Earthfiles report, but didn't see this discussed there.
Hi there, The link
Hi there,
The link included in the article to Crop Circle Connector's coverage has some pretty good analysis of these issues.
the medium is the message
here the message is in the foreground of the background of being.It's like if beings from another dimension are seeing if we ever look away from the three-ring circus of politics and religion.666 is a solar number, like all your 6's are in the up position, like the first hexagram of I-Ching.So you can look at what changes, and how the "changes" revolve, and evolve.A ratcheting up or down, in or out, like a calendar in the face of a sun, or if you see ufo's they are in a three group, or the star group in certain part of the sky.
Then you get the responses of important people like scientists and or science buffs that are like "oh at least the circle artists know algebra now" oh hum.
"The most complex crop circle ever found"
the scientist pops another peanut into his mouth, and looks at the crop circle like some Sherlock Holmes with a magnifying glass looking for arcane knowledge on the ceiling.
if we could just be...like"bent nodes" in the great interlocking gismo-cosmo cognitive in the circle eating it's tail.It gets a little ragged on the end, so, the next one that comes along can find some frayed thread to begin the weave again.
the most complex circle...ever...the season...

Barbury: http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/2008/barbury/barbury2008a.html 2 other crop circles with similarly impressive mathematical knowledge relating to eclipses have appeared in the last two weeks:

This is interesting in regard to the recent piece on the election suggesting that the August eclipse might have significance. One more:

Quite amazing how persistent the circlemakers are in projecting this message about eclipses.

ALIEN BANKSY EXHIBITS WORLDWIDE!
I wish I believed in a Guerilla Alien Art Collective, responsibly biodegradable, peppered with human mathematics (hey! us humanz b smart! even aliens use our mathematics!)
but alas... I saw a program where those irrepresible English not only explained, but demonstrated, crop circle construction (no boot or plank marks) after which they snickered while the 'spiritually attuned' trilled "Do you believe in fairies? Say quick that you believe! If you believe, clap your hands!" (J.M. Barrie)

PANARCHY!
It alllll has to go - even Anarchy.
Evidence over beliefs
I'd say first let's not fall prey to reducing the options to the usual "humans or aliens". Maybe it's neither, and maybe "aliens" aren't even from other planets.
As far as it being done by humans with boards: The 2002 Windmill Hill structure was 900 feet in diameter and consisted of 409 circles. It was calculated, when taking as points of reference the latest time the hill was seen before the formation appeared, and the time the formation was first seen, that a circle must have been formed every 7 seconds. This is assuming this entire deduced interval of time was used to make the formation.
This only accounts for the number of circles, without even looking at the absolutely perfect complexity of it.
Guys with boards? Skepticism and gullibility can run in either direction.

Clapping my hands
The thing that seems difficult to dismiss about crop circles is they occur all over the world. Same is true for the high strangeness of UFOs, alien abductions, apparitions and, yes, even fairies. What could be behind all of these things? (and if you say its those zany Brits, I would only agree as it concerns Monty Python)
For many years I became practiced at dismissing these things, but they seem too pervasive to ignore anymore. I don't have an explanation, but I take the phenomena seriously.The thing that just does not seem right to me is why all the mystery? Why flash strange colored lights in the sky and create Gnostic geometry in crops? Why not just do a little sky and earth writing in a human language to tell us exactly what's going on and what we should do? Seems to me the world situation warrants a little plain speaking, wouldn't you say?
If I had to guess the motivation of these ET folks I'd have to say they are just jacking with us while they're on vacation, sort of like heckling the monkeys at the zoo to make yourself feel superior. As for PI in a ratchet spiral, I would have been much more impressed if it has been ascending Fibonacci proportions, since that is more relevant to a damping spiral than the circular resonance of PI.
There are no "these things."
There is not necessarily a collective 'phenomena.' AnythingANYTHING is possible. Strange things happen, or were we trained to find them "strange"?
Everything could be connected but everything could be absolutely separate, it's own entity/environment completely. And/or any fraction or gradation in between. Each item must be treated separately. But why? Life is short. What else could you be doing with your time? There may be more realms and combinations than our bitty brains have the capacity to process.
We are very, very arrogant. WE KNOW NOTHING. I'll stop here, maybe rave more at my own place, if you want to stop by: http://xanaduxero.blogspot.com
These things...
Actually, there is a common thread through all of "these things" and that is that Science chooses to dismiss them or actively debunk them all as purely imaginary. If not purely fanciful imagination, they might also share the label of "paranormal" or "metaphysics" in spite of the fact that so many people experience the same kinds of things over and over again.
But beyond this, they also share what appears to be "interdimensionality," or the seeming ability to appear and disappear and otherwise "break the laws of physics" (most of which were established by ordinary people centuries ago when a cell phone would have been witchcraft). So, even while the world's best physicists are presenting evidence of 11 or 12 dimensions, mainstream science and society cannot accept the possibility of interdimensional beings, call them what you will.
If you really want to talk about anarchy, Xanaduxero, we should try to understand the things that our science, religion, economics, government and especially our educational systems ignore or simply dismiss with a knowning chuckle.
Orions Belt
~Aydra Jenson~. . ..Keeper of the StarSix.
Wow, those things are pretty impressive. Thanks for the links Daniel. I'm amused thinking that this supernatural, creative-intelligance simply throws down coded mandalas free of any malevolent intent and then sits back and watches as earthlings react.
. . .
Its funny, kinda like music and all art, that everyone will decode the message in a different way, through their own process and often come up with the same message or lean towards a popular or pure version. I wander if our circle-makers have ways of tracking our theories, charts, conferences, no-doubt they have ways. . .
. . .
In any case, in response to Keiths question about the 3 circles, i was wondering too and, according to Daniels link, one of the phtotshopped versions of the 'ratchet' points to the 3 as the belt of Orion and kindof maps the whole thing out as a star chart.
. . .
Thought that was cool, but of course wherever theres 3 you can only quess its pointing to all kinds of possibilities surrounding the nature of 3, the Divine number or numbers.
. . .
Also, I'm going to have to majorly plug this movie, it just came out on DVD...Rolland Emmerich does it again, only this time he really does it. This moive is not only beautifully shot and composed but the message supports many non-contemporary beliefs about our History.
A Must see.

Goodnight from LALALAND
Crop circles are bogus!
Let's assume crop circles are bogus, then what?
Most of my life I have thought this exact same thing. Patterns in crops are all just a fun activity that sporting people undertake after downing a few ales at the local pub. But then there is the fact these things occur all over the world. And the fact that they have become so intricate and complex. And the fact that no one has ever been caught making them - even while people watched all night without hearing a sound. And the fact that strange lights and electromagnetic readings have been found near some (not all) of these. Many other questions that are hard to explain.
It is odd that science is willing to be patient, spend large sums of money and send experiments into outer space to answer questions on planets and stars far, far away, but presume to already know that crop circles are all - 100 percent - created by little groups of highly skilled circlemakers all over the world.
To me, the circles are just as mysterious and maybe even more relevant than the geological formations on the surface of Mars.
I'll take a Reality Sandwhich with an extra heaping of BS.
Then we stop spreading myths about crop circles.
APPEARS to be, Richard
WE DON'T KNOW. WE DON'T KNOW. We think we're Big Balla Brains, and with enough study, we can... MAYBE WE'RE NOT. Maybe we can't. That is what I said, Richard. Ergo, there is and was no 'knowing chuckle'. I don't think you read my post.
And I KNOW you didn't read what I sign my stuff with below.

PANARCHY!
It alllll has to go - even Anarchy.
Guess we are just misreading each other's posts
Here's a quick bullet list to help clear up things:
1. My "knowing chuckle" remark was aimed at society at large for ignoring this phenomena, not a you personally,
2. I did read your post, but honestly had a little difficulty trying to get your point, but now after rereading a few times think that you're saying the same thing I am except...
3. that anarchy has to go as part of something called Panarchy? Sorry, I didn't get that.
Themanwithnoname12
i get the Pan-archy
an, pan, pan being the highest manifestation, would seem like anarchy, or pantheism "God is All" and if we can grok that, then we can begin to understand why science is stuck in a paradigm rut, But then if you consider the order of intelligence the aliens offer, then we may look pretty minute to them, it would be like some sheep herder trying to understand the god pan.A paradigm shift, like an appearance of Pan, dancing on his hooves and playing those pipes.Now he just leaves crop circles.Spinning their magick web across our psyches.Since we banished Pan from our imaginations, he had to go elsewhere, his terrible sudden appearance has morphed into something for the modern day psyche.He still uses symbols of All, but now they are calling cards to piss off Apollonian scientists.
if its not Chaos , its not Order
Pi phi forsooth fo fum
so the negative side of the connection perhaps relating to good an evil symbol, and then in this context it would be beyond.Why would the connection in the Bible have been turned negative indeed?Unless some Conclave of Bishops were told to make it so, So we find ourselves in some Field in England with a Led Zepplin of a cropy circle of circles, within, the number of a man, she is buying a stairway to heaven."and your stairway lies on the whispering wind",
"then the piper will lead us to reason"
too many for too long now
The Man has a laugh at the hippies
It's just a bunch of bored military spooks controlling a sattelite, feeding it computer generated designs which are then zappped onto a field using lazers or some secret hi-tec, like a friggin giant earth tattooing machine.
Then they amuse themselves by reading all the interpretations of symbolism posted on the net by mystically obsessed new agers who will invent - sorry, manifest- connections if they don't exist.
Since it IS all connected -isn't it?- they are simply yet another manifestation of the divine will, so it doesn't matter how they're made anyway and it's all totally FAR OUT man!
(They'll probably sell the technology to google any time now)
well that is that
right crop circles are a joke on the EARTH
Possibilities
interpretations not explanations
like most great works of art crop circles are visual manifestations that defy one "explanation." Artists often create works that they cannot explain themselves, images come through their subconscious, but something is being communicated that is open to interpretation, providing critics, curators and historians with a livelihood. For me it's not the why or what does it mean that can be investigated scientifically, but how they were created and by whom. I very much doubt drunken pensioners had the wherewithal to create a fractal pattern in an hour in broad daylight in a field across the road from Stonehenge during high tourst season.

Must See
For a rare insight into the mysterious nature of the Crop Circle phenomena...here is a series of interviews with known circle-makers. As you will see, they are just as baffled as anyone else. The line between "hoax" and "genuine" is blurred.

Many circlemakers are interviewed. Watch for commonalities in their testimonies.
