2009 Crop Circles

[Auriandra]

I did want to make this one post before I go today....

When I looked at the “Snowflake” formation, it reminded me of ancient rock carvings in the US Southwest. This link shows pictures of several of these. Especially look at the ones with the captions below (though there are other interesting ones):

One figure

2000. The Rake: A Polysemous Motif in the Shamanistic Rock Art Iconography of the Palavayu Anthropomorphic Style, Northeast Arizona. American Indian Rock Art 26: 13-28.

Three figures [can be hard to see unless you blow it up]
Beck, W., D.J. Donahue, A.J.T. Jull, W.S. Broeker, G. Bonani, I. Hajas, and E. Malotki.
1998. Ambiguities in Direct Dating of Rock Surfaces Using Radiocarbon Measurements. Science 280: 2132-2135.

There are also images I have in a book on Dakota spirituality which is similar to the inner part of the circle, though I assume you are right that they are closer to Mayan.

The most off-the-wall association I had was that the “fish bone” parts looked to me like feathers (?) in a head dress spread out in a circle, as they often are for display. Again these are in a book and I have not looked on-line for examples.

It's a Trilobite isn't it? ;)

Yes, the infamous Cosmic Trilobite of Impending Cyclic Cataclysm...

I thought exactly as Johnno when I saw the last crop circle ! I'm not sure about the Cosmic Trilobite, btw ^^

Some German circles I haven't seen posted here:

I can't get the pics to post here, but I particularly like the 7/29/9 one!

Thank you Approaching Infinity that's a great site!
But I couldn't find the one you are referring to. Maybe it's of the different writing styles of dates Europe / America ?



And on the site, I found an information about this crop circle:

to our present knowledge this formation is the result of this years communication-experiment by german researchers around joachim koch, who - together with his sadly passed friend h.-j.. kyborg - started many years ago to create an annual design to "communicate with the real circlemakers", they believe originate in the constellation of orion. in 1994 they created a very similar formation very close to this year's design).

while such an experiment might be reasonable if you follow the argumentation and theory by k&k and o.k. as long as communicated with the field owning farmer, sadly again (as in previous years) mr. koch has missed the opportunity to differ his work from the usual deceiving hoaxes by making it clear to the public that this very formation is what it is meant to be.

as far as we know this fact has been very little communicated with the crop circle community so far (not at his own website, nor in a public note to other researchers, nor has a sign been posted at the field informing people of this formation origin and intention.

I read a book about their communication experiment with cropcircles many, many years back of the two mentioned scientist, Kyborg and Koch.
What I have in mind, they said that the cropcircles started themself relative simple in their design/formation and over the years got more and more complex. Well, they attempted to develop a language created with symbols mainly with planets (constellation) and the like, and tried with that in mind to communicate with the "crop circle creators".
So their hypothesis has been, that the first crop circles are also about planet constellations and that the "creators" simply made an effort to communicate with us.
And as Andreas Mueller is stating they came to the conclusion through their experiment, that the "creators" come from Orion.

That tail of a comet I believe is always on the opposite side of the comet from the side facing the sun (solar wind, I guess?) Unfortunately, all I could find quickly was this antique diagram, but I'm sure there are astronomical pictures too....

I think this has the html file that lets you look at pictures of about eight rock carvings from this source northeast Arizona. I tried but failed to attach this properly earlier. Sorry. (Hope it works this time....)

Hum! more comets design, will it past to the right, to the left or death center whit a big impact. Maybe the first two it Jupiter and Venus some days ago! See the conduit from the impact to the largess circle and the third one on either side beginning to merge whit the largess. This is what I see.

I agree about the comet idea.
But the crop circle seems to be very asymmetric, when you look closely.
The seven circles, the "comet tails" from both sides...
That makes me wonder if it is really authentic.

Another two phased circle reported for the last day in July.

Could be before and after, I see also multiple dimension on the lower one and the full one the merge of the multiple dimension or one becoming many.

The first circle was cut down by the farmer before anyone could see it. See this report: http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/2009/winterbourne/winterbourne2009.html
I wonder if the second crop circle is a remake of the first destroyed one?

 

[Laurentien2]

Interesting, is it a copy of the first one, we can't know unless someone as a picture or is the final result (the 2 circles) what was intended!

 

[Vulcan59]

Thanks Nicholas. Didn't see that comment at the cc website when I posted the circle image yesterday.

The first circle was cut down by the farmer before anyone could see it.

 

[Vulcan59]

This one appeared near where the first one was destroyed by the farmer.

So perhaps this could be the replacement OSIT.

And the first one for August this year.

Nice one. Seems to come out of a Cathedral stall. The figure at the center it's like a kaleidoscopic image. Four lobes make a circle (in the very center), and there are 12 more lobes that could be 3 more circles, but went scattered by the perimeter of the square shaped window.

That was my first-sight impression :P

Lol my first impression of that one is Happy Birthday.
