Indonesian Crop Circles of 2011 |
|
Introduction
Three crop circle formations appeared in rice fields in Indonesia -- first to ever appear in that region. The first formation appeared on 23 January 2011, at Krasakan, Sleman, Yogyakarta, Java. The second formation appeared not far away at Wanujoyo, on 25 January. The third formation appeared in the same region, at Tegalrejo, Magelang, on 30 January. It was composed of five glyphs in a line. The central glyph was an eight-fold pinwheel type. A pair of smaller circles were on either side of the central glyph.
The Unique Location
Two important ancient sites are located in the area. According to Wikipedia --
Prambanan is a ninth century Hindu temple compound in Central Java, Indonesia, dedicated to Trimurti, the expression of God as the Creator (Brahma), the Sustainer (Vishnu) and the Destroyer (Shiva). The temple compound located approximately 18 km east of Yogyakarta city on the boundary between Yogyakarta and Central Java province. [See map]
Borobudur, or Barabudur, is a 9th-century Mahayana Buddhist monument near Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. The monument comprises six square platforms topped by three circular platforms, and is decorated with 2,672 relief panels and 504 Buddha statues.[1] A main dome, located at the center of the top platform, is surrounded by 72 Buddha statues seated inside perforated stupa.
Mount Merapi, an active volcano, is also located nearby, at Sleman, Yogyakarta. Thirty people were killed when it erupted last October.
Mount Tidar is near Magelang, not far north of Borobudur. In Javanese legend, Mount Tidar is the point where the Island of Java is 'nailed' to the earth, and known as the Nail of Java. It is said that the gods placed the nail to prevent the Java island from tremor and sinking. See: John Scott's Video.
On Boxing Day, 26 December 2004, a great earthquake, magnitude 9.3, took place off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, north of where the three crop formations appeared in January 2011. The earthquake caused a very destructive tsunami, killing over 230,000 people in fourteen countries.
The First Formation
It was reported in the news that the first formation looked like the symbol of the muladhara chakra, which is the first chakra. The second formation was said to be the "twin" of the first one. All three formations may be related to the chakras.
I was surprised that the formations had appeared in January and by the Indonesian
location, but I was not surprised that the first one was recognized right
away as the first chakra. I
realized that connection
in 1993. In 1997, we wrote about the
chakra connections to the
crop circle formations. The
Tree of Life also appeared
in 1997, which has correspondences to the chakras. Some of the crop formations
in 2010,
like in years prior, indicated a crossover, or duality shift, relating to
the chakras. In 2004, the
seven chakras
appeared --

Madisonville Connections and Ezekiel's Four Living Creatures
A triangular crop formation appeared in Madisonville in 2008. To me, it was yet another coincidence about the conversation I had with Jeffrey Wilson in 2005, where he informed me of the legend of the Four Thunderbirds, and I responded by mentioning the similarity to Ezekiel's Four Living Creatures, who also have wings that touch one another. I covered some of my experiences concerning this in Part Six of the Pollen Path series of articles. This is a good time to review the subject and update it with new information.
It began with the 1991 Barbury Castle pictogram formation, diagrammed in
Image 21, below --

About a year later, I read a letter to the editor in a crop circle journal that caught my interest. The person pointed out that the 1991 Barbury Castle triangle fit neatly within the New Jerusalem diagram. I created Image 22 to illustrate the point. The basic New Jerusalem diagram can be made with four simplified Barbury Castle shapes.
The New Jerusalem diagram (or plan) is based on the vision of Saint John in Revelation 21. It is said to represent the order of the heavens made apparent on earth.
This was especially important to me, because I saw a similar pattern in a dream on 18 October 1990. It was twelve interlocking rings with twelve high entity figures standing in them. I read about the New Jerusalem plan diagram about a year later, in an article telling how that pattern had been found by dowsing inside a crop circle and ancient sites, such as Stonehenge and Avebury. The crop circle was a swastika-circle type, that appeared in 1989, at Winterbourne Stoke. I reported the details in Part Five of the Pollen Path series. Image 26, below, is a larger image of the diagram.
Image 23 shows how the same four triangles can form a Teutonic Cross (or Iron Cross). In that case, four circles -- one from each triangle are overlapped and appear as the single central circle. I image those four circles corresponding to the north sun symbol of the 1991 Barbury Castle formation. The idea was helped along by the fact that I had read an article about how patterns had been found by dowsing inside crop circle formations, one of which was a Teutonic Cross.
Image 24 shows how the same four triangles can be rearranged to form a pyramid as viewed from above. In this case, each of the four corner circles has two circles overlapped, so as to appear as single circles. It also forms a "quintuplet set" of circles, which had been one of the most common type of crop formations. In addition, an "X" shaped type cross can be seen within the pattern. Such a pattern -- a quintuplet cross -- appeared as a crop formation a few years later, in the early 1990s.
Image 25 is a simplified version of Image 24, the pyramid quintuplet type.
A year or two after drawing the diagrams of various arrangements of four Barbury Castle shapes, I read an article that mentioned the vision of Ezekiel in the Old Testament. I then read the verses of Ezekiel 1. As I read about the "four wheels," the "wheel within a wheel," and how the "wheels" had "spokes," I began to think of my diagrams again. I had neglected to put in the "wheels," that is, the central circle and rings of the 1991 Barbury Castle crop circle formation. I then drew them in, which became Image 15.
A detailed comparison of Image 15 to Ezekiel's vision is given in Part Six of the Pollen Path series of articles. Ezekiel's "Wagon," or Four Wheel Chariot, is also known as the Merkabah. The Four Living Creatures are also mentioned in Revelation 4.
The parts of the vision about the "wings" and how they "touched one another" (Ezekiel 1:9, 11) fit well with the idea of the Teutonic Cross triangles (Image 23) being lowered down to overlap the corner circles. The Maltese Cross type patterns, that can be found within the triangles, look quite like wings. Ezekiel 3:12 tells how a great earthquake sounded, as the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another.
The 2005 crop formation at Lurkey Hill fit well with these theories. Image
23, below, is the original Teutonic Cross idea, formed by four Barbury Castle
triangles --

Image 17 |
Image 26 is a photograph of the central part of the 2005 Lurkey Hill formation (Image 16), with lines drawn between circles. Note the similarity to Image 23. Image 17 is the same, but with the "wings" filled in with red color to make the Maltese Cross.
According to Joseph Campbell, the Four Living Creatures represent Zodiac
signs, corresponding to the solstices and equinoxes during the Age of Taurus.
They correspond to the four major Tribes, thus --

The two diagrams below illustrate how each of the four triangles of the New
Jerusalem diagram (Image 27), and the Zodiac diagram (Image 28), represent
three Zodiac signs each, one major and the other two minor.
|
|
Image 27 |
Image 28 |
This seems to explain why the twelve outer circles in the 2005 Lurkley Hill
crop formation have four with larger circles and eight with smaller circles.
Each of the four large circles connects with two smaller circles on the outer
ring, forming the four triangles --
|
Image 16 |
The design of Lurkley Hill prompted me to recall a writing about numbers in traditional symbolic glyphs. The number four is associated with the Earth plane. The Heavenly plane is associated with twelve. The number eight represents a plane between the Earth and Heaven.
Squaring the Circle and The New Jerusalem -
Lead by Coincidence to a New Meaning -
The Order of the Heavens Made Apparent on Earth
The New Jerusalem design (Image 27) demonstrates squaring the circle. The perimeter of the red (Earth) square is equal to the circumference of the green (Moon) circle, 31,680 miles. Bert Janssen has demonstrated that many crop circle formations also demonstrate squaring the circle in unique ways.
It appears clear at a glance that the 2007 Wexcombe Down formation (Image 3) -- the "four birds" -- also demonstrates squaring the circle.
After writing the text above, a coincidence happened (9 February 2011) as I was looking for a link about "squaring the circle", and "New Jerusalem". The first link included images that have four petals, similar to some of the crop circle designs on this page, like the Wexcombe Down "four birds," and the first Indonesian crop formation. This is the link --
Constructing The Cosmological Circle
I reworked the image from that page slightly, to compare to images on this
page --
|
The image on the left is the first Indonesian crop formation (Image 2), with colorful boxes added. The image on the right is the 2007 "four birds" formation of Wexcombe Down (Image 3). The center image is the reworked image from the linked page above, the Cosmological Circle. Basically, I rotated it forty-five degrees, added green color to the four petals, and made it smaller in size.
Once again, meaningful coincidence proves to be the key to the deeper meaning of my quest -- in this case, the grand meaning of the first two Indonesian crop circle formations, as well as the 2007 Wexcombe Down formation. The central portion is the New Jerusalem design, with twelve Moon glyphs around the Earth sphere in the center. The four petals are derived from two Vesica Pisces shapes intersecting four of the Moon glyphs.
As stated earlier, the New Jerusalem design is said to represent the order of the Heavens made apparent on Earth. An early Biblical example is the camp positions of the Twelve Tribes described in Numbers 2. It is described by Saint John the Divine in Revelation 21.
Another great coincidence happened, as if to confirm the previous coincidence.
The previous coincidence happened at 1:15 AM. After working on the graphics
to be added, I went back to the web page at 3:17 AM to read the text
of the article. The author, Michael S. Schneider, tells how the "Buddhist
Brobodur temple" is one example of the type of geometric diagram
that symbolizes the complete order of the universe. This is the explanation
--
|
The book is primarily based on the work of John Michell who has explored and written about the New Jerusalem Diagram and Cosmological Circle for over thirty years.
The Two Madisonville Formations
Based on my experiences with four 1991 Barbury Castle triangular shapes,
I felt that the 2007 Madisonville formation fit the picture. I created the
images below to illustrate the point --
|
|
Image 29 |
Image 15 |
|
|
Image 30 |
Image 31 |
Image 30 has the 2007 Madisonville formation with the four Barbury Castle triangles superimposed, with the outer four circles aligned. Image 31 is the same, except the four inner circles are aligned.
A
triangular
formation appeared near the 2007 Madisonville formation about a year
later, around 5 May 2008 --
|
Image 32 |
It was quite significant to me, for obvious reasons , as illustrated on these
pages. The two formations surely relate to one another. I created the images
below to illustrate the point --
|
|
Image 33 |
Image 34 |
Image 33 is a diagram of the 2008 Madisonville crop formation. Image 34 shows how four of the 2008 Madisonville triangles can be placed upon the 2007 Madisonville crop formation, to form a new image that fits well with Ezekiel's Four Living Creatures.
The various images on these pages of the Four Living Creatures types, feature
arrangements of circles, upon which multiple boxes can be drawn, similar
to those illustrated in the first Indonesian crop formation near the top
of this page (Images 2 and 6). Image 35 is a diagram of the 2007 Madisonville
formation, with four boxes drawn between points. Image 36 is a thumbnail
of the first 2011 Indonesian formation --

The Second Indonesian Crop Circle Formation
The
second
crop formation that appeared in Indonesia, was at Wanujoyo, Yogyakarta,
Java. It was reported 25 January 2011. Image 37 is an overhead view --
|
Image 37 |
This is the best picture available at the moment. The pattern is difficult to make out, but it does seem to be similar to the first Indonesian crop formation. I would not call it a "twin."
The Third Indonesian Crop Circle Formation
The
third
Indonesian crop formation appeared at Tegalrejo, Magelang, Java on 29
January 2011 --
|
Image 38 |
Image 38 is a photograph of the central, pinwheel type glyph. Image 39 is
a diagram of the complete formation --
|
Image 39 |
Images 40 and 41 illustrate the underlying construction of the pinwheel --
eight interlocking rings in a circle.
|
|
Image 40 |
Image 41 |
http://sixooninele.blogspot.com/2011/01/ufo-terekam-di-crop-circle-magelang.html
The basic design is similar to an image I drew in 1990, based on a
dream, Figure 42 --
|
|
Image 42 |
Image 43 |
Another 1990 dream informed me that the image represented the Oversoul, with each petal a reincarnational personality. On 27 June 2000, a similar pattern appeared as a crop circle formation at Bishop Cannings, near Devizes, Wiltshire (Image 43). Note the two sets of star type double boxes.
There were a number of
eight-fold crop circle
formations in 2000, including the
crop
formation that appeared at Alton Priors, Wiltshire, on 19 June 2000 (Image
44) --
|
|
|
Image 44 |
Image 45 |
Image 46 |
Note that the shape of the inner portion is quite like the outer portions of Images 40, 41 and 42. The outer portion of the Alton Priors formation is a sixteen-fold design, which is like traditional eastern mandalas, such as the Sri Yantra (Image 45), and the Kali Yantra (Image 46).
A huge Sri Yantra appeared grooved into a dry lake bed in Oregon in 1990. I experienced an amazing coincidence about it. I told the story in Part Three of the Pollen Path series. Included is an explanation of how the Sri Yantra represents a path through the chakras from outward-inward. In this special case, the sixteen-petal lotus flower represents the second chakra, and the eight-petal lotus flower represents the third chakra.
In September, 1990, I saw an aperture in a dream (Image 47), and knew it
was about the crop circles --
|
Image 47 |
Sometime after seeing the Indonesian pinwheel formation, I realized that it was somewhat similar to the inside portion of my 1990 dream image.
Ancient Glyphs
In early 1991, I was given The Sacred Symbols of Mu, by Col. James Churchward. It is a collection of symbols with interpretations found around the world. In my view, the island of Mu may be a metaphor for our spiritual homeland. As I see it, symbols are similar the world over because we have a collective unconscious in which archetypal symbols come to people in dreams and visions. The The Sacred Symbols of Mu has many four-fold and eight-fold glyphs. I will give a few examples that may apply to the Indonesian crop formations.
These three symbols are among others,labeled, "Mound Builders' Symbols," on page 227 --
|
|
|
Image 48 |
Image 49 |
Image 50 |
According to Churchward --
Image 48 shows the earth's Forces passing out of her body into the atmosphere (they are thus drawn out by their affinitive Forces carried in the Sun's rays).
Image 49 is a rare symbol. It is found in Hindu writings of about 4000 to 5000 years ago. This figure symbolizes the Sun sending forth his rays throughout his System (the solar). They are shown as being of two varieties - dark and invisible because of their intensity, and light, which are apparent to vision. The rays are in the form of Forces, as shown by the Force symbol. Again they are curved, pointing to the east and thereby telling us that they are working from west to east and forming a circle. As they are taking a circular route all rays coming from the Sun would not strike the earth in a straight line from the sun but in a curve.
Image 50 is not defined by Churchward, but it is apparently related to sun symbolism. The dot inside a ring is a symbol of the Deity. A similar symbol is said to represent the "Eight Roads to Heaven."
Note that double boxes can be drawn between points of the pinwheel part of
the Indonesian crop circle (Image 51) --

Figure 52 is from page
153 --
|
Image 52 |
This is the text that goes with it --
|
Churchward's words and glyphs certainly fit with a crop circle formation
that appeared in 1992 --
|
Image 53 |
It appeared 17 August 1992 at Silbury Hill. Anthropologist and crop circle researcher, Michael Green, called it a "Dharmic Wheel." He wrote that the formation is in the tradition of the great instructional mandalas, about human spiritual development. The structure of Ultimate Reality has the eight symbols of Being and Becoming on the points of the directions. The central glyph symbolizes the Deity, as a dot within a ring, further defined as being quartered.
The symbols on the outer ring represent a certain energy, vibration or spiritual state, which eventually leads to apotheosis, after which the transformed Spirit of Light merges with the Deity in the center.
The meaning of the formation has similarities to the Sri Yantra, like the pattern that appeared grooved into a dry lake bed in Oregon in 1990. The path through the chakras is in eight stages, followed by merging with the One, symbolized by the single dot in the center, called the bindu.
On page 75, there
are images of four-petal flower type glyphs (Figure 54) --
|
Image 54 |
Churchward wrote that these flower types were Looped Cross types that developed from the simple cross. They are another symbol of the Deity, as a dot or ring within a ring, from which the four petals spring. This is quite similar to the central glyph of the 1992 Dharmic Wheel crop formation. It is also similar to the basic structure of the first two Indonesian crop formations. The swastika type arms within the glyph on the right symbolize the four primary forces.
Recall my statement, above, about the 1989 swastika-circle type crop formation at Winterbourne Stoke -- the New Jerusalem plan diagram was detected by dowsing inside the formation.
A figure eight type glyph with a four-fold design in the center is depicted
on page 185 (Image
55) --
|
Image 55 |
|
Image 56 |
A crop formation appeared at Milk Hill on 8 August 2008 (8-8-8), that had a similar basic design. Such figure eight types are also called infinity signs. I mentioned in a 2010 article that the central portion of the formation was similar to the 1992 Dharmic Wheel formation.
