Indonesian Crop Circles of 2011 |
|
We reported on the first three 2011 Indonesian crop circle formations in
Part One.
The fourth Indonesian
crop circle formation of 2011 appeared at Jawa Barat Cikarang, Java,
Indonesia around 4 May (Image 1) --
|
Image 1 |
There was a report that the formation was man-made, but that should not stop interpretive efforts. See the note that the end of this page.
The formation seems to represent the process of creation in a simple symbolic form. The Creator (left), becomes dual (center), then projects the physical reality (right). I learned of similar glyphs in the early 1990's, when I received The Sacred Symbols of Mu, by Col. James Churchward. It is a collection of ancient symbols from around the world.
A diagram of the formation is below (Image 2), along with several other diagrams
for comparison --

Image 3 is a modified version of the formation's hexagonal glyph. It illustrates a rectangular hypercube, a box inside a box. The second row of images is from The Sacred Symbols of Mu. Image 4 is from page 226. It is a sun symbol representing the monotheistic symbol of the Deity. Image 5 is one of 24 glyphs displayed on page 227. It is number 5, on the upper-right of the set of glyphs. It also represents the sun. It seems to represent the dual stage of Deity in creation. I will elaborate more on this later.
Image 6 is similar to the hexagonal glyph of the new Indonesian formation, and the modified version, Image 3. Imagine the hexagonal portion of the formation rotated and tilted slightly.
Image 6 is from page 139, and taken from the Egyptian Book of the Dead, also called, the Book of Coming Forth by Day, also translated as, the Book of emerging forth into the Light. One translation of the glyph states, "I am yesterday, and I know tomorrow, I am able to be born again." Another version is, "I am yesterday, today and tomorrow." This may suggest the physical creation in the sense of time, with its past, present, and future.
The three-dimesnional cube compares to the two-dimensional square, illustrated
on page 127 (Image

|
Image 7 |
The triangle symbolizes Heaven. The square symbolizes Earth. The triangle surmounting a square symbolizes Heaven above Earth. The three dots symbolize the Triune Godhead. The five dots symbolize the Deity and His Four Great Primary or Creative Forces. A simple cube viewed from one corner can be seen as a hexagon. Many crop circle formations have had such a form.
The middle glyph of the new Indonesian crop formation, which is like Image
5, above, appeared as part of a very fameous crop circle formation -- the
1991 Barbury
Castle pictogram. Image 8, below, is a diagram of the formation, with
the central circle and rings in red. The red portion is quite like the middle
glyph of the new crop formation and Image 5 from The Sacred Symbols of
Mu.

Image 9 |
Image 9 shows the direction of the lay of the wheatstalks in the 1991 formation. Note that all circular areas except one have plants layed in a counterclockwise direction. The exception is the outer ring of the central circle with rings, which has the plants layed in a clockwise direction. The suggestion is that the two rings represnet the duality, often refered to simply as male and female.
A similar suggestion was given in a different way within the 1999
Menorah crop circle
formation, which also appeared at Barbury Castle. This is an excerpt
from the article --
|
The The Tree of Life
appeared as a crop formation in 1997. The three glyphs composing the new
Indonesian crop formation may correspond to a simplified Tree of Life, which
includes the theory of
emanation, where
all things are derived from the Creator. In that sense, all things
are portions of the Creator manifesting, including each individual
human being.
To imagine the formation relating to the Tree of Life, turn the images ninety-degrees, so that the monothiestic Deity symbol is at the top. This would correspond to sphere one of the Tree, Kether, the Crown. The central dual Deity glyph would corresond to the three Pillars of the Tree -- left (female/Judgment), center (balanced), and right (male/Mercy). The rectangular cube would be at the bottom, corresponding to sphere ten, Malkuth, the Kingdom. Alternately, the cube could represent sphere six, in the middle of the Tree, which is Tiphareth, Beauty. It corresponds to the heart chakra. There is a tradition of the Divine Wedding or Marriage, where sphere six, the Bridgroom (Zer Anpin), weds sphere ten, the Bride (Shechinah). The hexagonal glyph of the formation may represent that union.
I had a dream
about six months prior to the appearance of the 1991 Barbury Castle formation
--
|
After I read an article about the Barbury Castle formation in September,
1991, I looked for similar symbols in The Sacred Symbols of Mu. I
found the eye
inside the triangle, interpreted as the Deity looking out from Heaven
(page 187). I
also found this similar glyph on
page 125 (Image
10) , of the Deity in Heaven --
|
Image 10 |
I was astonished when I read the text below the graphic --
|
I realized that there is a "Y"-shape within the Barbury Castle triangle, if viewed upside-down. This experience gave me confidence that the interpretation was on the mark.
After I studied the symbolism of the Barbury Castle formation for a time in the early 1990s, I came to realize that the formation fit with Seth's concept of the "Consciousness Unit." I found this excerpt as I was composing this article --
|
The Consciousness Unit has the rational and intuitive functions within it, which is one form of duality. If all the Consciousness Units were destroyed (they can't be), save one, all creation would come back into being from the single one. In this sense, it is similar to an indestructable seed or DNA strand.
In 1996, I spoke on the telephone with David Wilcock. During the conversation, I mentioned the 1991 Barbury Castle crop formation, and the idea that it may represent Seth's Consciousness Unit. He later wrote a good article on the subject --
The Emergence of the Mother of All Crop Circles
Image 11, below, is from
page 105 of The
Sacred Symbols of Mu --
|
|
Image 11 |
Image 12 |
The single ring reads Hun, -- The Creator is one. The ring divided by a diameter reads Lahun, two -- He is two in one. The ring with two lines reads Mehen, man -- These two engendered the son, mehen -- man. Image 12 is an elongated version of the third glyph of Image 11.
Interestingly, Image 12 is similar to a modern football stadium. In 1998, Dee had a dream-vision experience in which a voice said, "Do a web search for Robert F. Kennedy Memorial." I informed her about the glyph in The Sacred Symbols of Mu. We thought it might explain her visionary experiences. I had also dreamed of (American) football, and eventually wrote about football symbolism.
On page 106, Churchward tells of the ancient concept of
Lao Tzu , author of
Tao Te
Ching --
|
Joseph Campbell's version of Tao Teh Ching 42 is expressed this way
--
|
Symbolic variations of of the 1-2-3 process of creation are covered on pages 106 to 109.
The AUM triangle glyph is shown on
page 276, Image

|
Image 13 |
The meaning is given as --
|
This compares well with the 1991 Barbury Castle crop formation (Images 8,
9, and 15). The glyphs at the corners are said to have parallels in alchemical
signs, thus --
|
According to John Michell, the total square footage of the circles in the 1991 Barbury Castle formation added to 31680. That is a measure around the sub-lunary world of the New Jerusalem design. Early Christian scholars calculated the number 3168 as emblematic of Lord Jesus Christ. The same number was previously applied to the name of a leading principle in the pagan religion.
A concept similar to those covered in The Sacred Symbols of Mu is
the Pythagorean Tetraktys,
Image 14, below --
|
|
Image 14 |
Image 15 |
According to Joseph Campbell, the tetraktys represents creation in four steps. The one creative source (top dot) becomes two dots, representing duality -- male/female, sun/moon, plus/minus, light/dark, rational/intuitive, etc. The row with three dots shows the relative balance of the dual forces -- female dominant, balanced, or male dominant. The row of four dots at the bottom indicates "all things created" from the three above -- the four quarters of the Earth, the four quarters of Heaven, the four elements, the four fundamental forces, etc.
Note that the ten dots of the Tetraktys fit well with certain key points of the 1991 Barbury Castle formation (Image 15).
In 1992, I informed my snail-mail friend, Josephine," about some of the ideas
concerning the creation process, as expressed above. She responded with a
quote from a book on ritual magic by Donald Tyson --
|
The channeled entity, Seth, in the Jane Roberts books, speaks of a similar concept. He said the reality is created each moment through very rapid vibrations, that we cannot yet detect. Time is part of the creation, but on the other side of the veil, there is no time, just an Eternal Now.
Joseph Campbell pointed out that the Star of David design composed of thirteen stars, above the head of the eagle on the Great Seal of the United States, is composed of two interlaced Pythagorean Tetraktys, one pointing upward to Heaven, and the other pointing downward to Earth.
Physisist, Stephen M. Phillips,
Ph.D., has develped an extensive string theory, which uses sacred geometries,
the Tree of Life, and the Pythagorean Tetraktys. Each shape is composed of
various triangles marked with the ten dots, called Yods. Image 16, below,
is one example --
|
Image 16 |
I reported an artistic-dreaming connection to this work in this article --
Humanity On The Pollen Path, Part Six
Dr. Phillips points out that there are
seven yods
(dots) making a hexagon within each tetraktys (Image 17) --
|
Image 17 |
Certain crop formations fit well with the Tetraktys ideas of Dr. Phillips.
One example is the
diamond-shaped
formation that appeared at Chilbolton, around 12 June 1999 (Image 18)
--
|
Image 18 |
It was said to be a Sierpinski Gasket fractal type design. I have added color to show the compaison. This formation seems especially significant, because of three crop formations that appeared in the following two years, near the same place, next to the Chilbolton radio telescope. Busty Taylor has an article about this.
On 13 August 2000, a fractal type formation appeared right in front of the radio telescope. Around 14 August 2001, a "face" type crop formation appeared near the same location. About five days later, a rectangular formation appeared near the "face" that was obviously (when seen from above) a coded message.
It was quite like a message that was sent into space in 1974, from the Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico. The details of the crop formation indicated that it came from an extraterrestrial source. The bottom portion of the message was a small version of the fractal type formation that appeared in the same spot the year before. That portion of the original Arecibo message showed a simple design of the transmitting device -- the radio telescope itself. The suggestion was that the fractal design of the formation represented the transmitting device used by the extraterrestrial source.
The formation
that appeared at West overton, Wiltshire, around 24 June 1999, had similar
triangular patterns (Image 19) --
|
Image 19 |
The small dots were actually little hexagons. A cutout of the pattern can be folded into a three-dimensional octahedron. Jonah Ohayv has an excellent article that covers these formations and others. Also see the other parts of the article, starting at the Intro, where the octahedral shapes within the local Universe are discussed.
There have been quite a number of hexagonal crop formations over the years,
many of which suggest cubes or hypercubes. One of the most interesting to
me, was the hypercube
type formation that appeared on 7 July 2007, at Toot Balden, near Southend,
Oxfordshire --
|
Image 20 |
Compare the rotated Toot Balden graphic, Image 21, below, to the modified glyph, Image 3, of the hexagonal glyph of the fourth Indonesian crop formation of 2011 --
|
|
Image 21 |
Image 3 |
A few months prior to the appearance of the 2007 Toot Balden formation, I was interviewed about crop circles on a student radio program from Keble College, Oxford. During the interview, the interviewer mentioned that he had a dream where he saw a box. I asked for details, but he could not remember. I talked a bit about the various box type crop circle formations. Coincidentally, the Toot Balden formation appeared about five miles south of his location at Oxford. Coincidences such as this are commonly reported by crop circle researchers. This is one of several reasons that many researchers think that the crop circle phenomena is somehow tied into our consciousness or the unconscious mind.
The 7 July 2007 date of the formation may be significant, as it can be seen as 7-7-7. Such triplet numbers are often reported as coincidental events. Crop formations sometimes display such numbers in various guises.
I am placing a writing by Michelle Jennings about the Toot Balden formation in the Extra Data section at the bottom of the article. She points out that the rays in the formation seem to be coming from the cube center, like the light is coming from the inside in this formation. She also references the heart chakra.
As pointed out in Part One, the chakra system is also related to the spheres of the Tree of Life. There is a Kabbalistic teaching that the spheres of the Tree must be filled with light from below, rather than from above.
Sphere six, Tiphareth, corresonds to the heart chakra. I believe it is symbolized by the Seed of Life that later opens into a twelve-fold design. The Seed of Life can also become Metaton's Cube.
The thirty-six rays of the Toot Balden formation are also significant.
Thirty-six is a major Gematria
number. We pointed out in
another
article, that sphere six of the Tree relates to the Magic Square of the
Sun, a six by six grid with the numbers one through thirty-six inside --

Each row, column, and diagonal adds to 111. Adding all thirty-six numbers results in 666.
On 8 July 2006, a formation appeared at Wayland Smithy that looked like twelve skyscraper type buildings. The basis of the design was actually a cube or hypercube. Included on that page is the hypercube drawing of Stan Romanek, apparently received from an extraterrestrial intelligent source.
Another noteworthy cube appeared around 24 June 1999, at Allington near Devizes, Wiltshire. Six of the edges had wide pathways, making them look like three sevens (777). Perhaps it relates to the 2007 Toot Balden formation of 7-7-7.
In this case, the cube was inside a circle, which is fairly common in crop
circle formations. Such a design fits with a message received over sixty
years ago. In the book, Channeling, by Jon Klimo, on page 165, Jon
quotes Walter Russell, from a book published in 1947, of messages "of God."
Russell claimed that the messages conveyed to him a direct knowledge of how
the basic universal forces of electromagnetism, gravity, and atomic energy
really operate. He wrote --
|
In 2010, there were several cube and square type crop formations --
Danebury Hill, near Nether Wallop, Hampshire, 6 July 2010
Cley Hill, near Warminster, Wiltshire, 9 July 2010
Fosbury, near Vernham Dean, Wiltshire, 17 July 2010
Whitefield Hill, near Woodsend, Wiltshire, 3 August 2010
The Whitefield Hill formation has an apparent sphere inside two overlapped
squares. That shape is also common in crop circle formations. It fits with
the Sufi concept of the Breath of the Compassionate --
|
Image 22 |
The idea is that the creation is being created in each moment via the inward and outward breaths of the Creator. It is almost identical to the cube-sphere message through Walter Russell. A detailed explanation is on this page, in the Extra Data section --
444, The Triplets, & The Creation
It is pointed out in that article that a complex double square type formation appeared at Hundred Acres (East Field), Alton Priors, Wiltshire, around 3 July 2005, and that some seventeen days later an "X" type crop formation appeared at Kings Worthy, near Winchester, Hampshire. The two formations fit quite well with the glyphs in Image 22, above.
It seems clear that many crop formations are attempting to inform us about how the creation is created by the Creator. It is as if we need to relearn the very old language of symbols.

Creation Stories
These two creations myths are from, Myths, by Detlef-I. Lauf, Alexander Eliot, Joseph Campbell, Mircea Eliade. They illustrate the idea that the Creator is the creation.
Native American Creation Myth
|
When I read Sword's story, it struck me that this was similar to a Seth concept. Seth claimed that all parts of all realities were the Creator manifesting. He chose to use the term All-That-Is, rather than God. I later read where Black Elk, of the Oglala Sioux, used the terms "all that is," in the same context.
The word rock or stone seems to sometimes have the symbolic meaning -- interpretation, as in a certain idea or thought. If applied to the Oglala Sioux story, it would make more sense that rock is the oldest.

Chinese Creation Myth
Myths, by Detlef-I. Lauf, Alexander Eliot, Joseph Campbell, Mircea Eliade

Pan-Ku is also known as Pangu.
Gnostic Gospel of Thomas
The Gospel of
Thomas was found at Nag Hammadi, Egypt in 1945. It is composed
of various "Sayings" of Jesus. Some of the Sayings found their way into the
Christian Bible, while others did not. Saying 50 speaks to the idea of
individuals being created through the Creator by light out of nothing. This
is one translation --
|
The "movement "and "rest" in the verse may be related to the idea of the photon of light exhibiting a wave-particle duality. Perhaps this is related to the "pulsing" nature of creation discussed in this article.
Dr. James J. Hurtak had a visionary experience in 1973. The Light Being, Enoch, appeared to him and informed him of a great world transformation to come within decades. Enoch explained many concepts about Creation. He explained that the Eye of YHWH (Creator) is within each pyramid of Light. This struck me as being quite similar to the eye within the triangle glyph, yet related to the photon of light. To me, it also fit with Seth's idea of the Consciousness Unit.
Dr. Hurtak reported his experiences in, The Book Of Knowledge:The Keys Of Enoch.
A Note About Man-Made or Hoaxed Crop Formations
There was a report that the fourth Indonesian crop formation of 2011 was man-made. There are reasons to doubt such claims, but in any case, I focus on the theoretical meaning of the symbols.
I think that most of the formations are created through the collective unconscious, in a manner that is not yet understood. It is possible that man-made formations come through inspirations, like other works of art, so that the unconscious mind is still the idea source. The man-made formations, therefore, have potential meaning.
Assuming that the tens of thousands of crop formations that have appeared all over the world during the past thirty years are all man-made, is a compelling reason to look for possible symbolic meanings. Since so many of the formations have obvious religious connotations, begs the questions -- "Who or what is behind the creation of crop circles, and what is the purpose?"
I consider finding the meaning of the formations a first step in trying to answer those questions.
