EIGHT-FOLD STAR
One of two formations that appeared June 11th
near Silbury Hill in Barley. Over 200 feet in diameter.
It had several little tufts with swirls around them,
distributed randomly (?) in the Star.
(Preliminary diagram - I do not know exactly how they are distributed yet.)

Once again Silbury Hill has been the venue for crop circle activity
of the highest quality. This time we get two formations in the same field on the same night. Both of these works are situated in
a field of barley that runs parallel with the busy A4 between the Wagon & Horses pub and Silbury Hill.
The farmer has reported to us that he took a drive past the field this morning at (approx) 3-30am, he says there was nothing to be
seen in the field at the time that he considered odd or suspicious in any way.
The first formation (looking from Silbury Hill) is an eight pointed star created almost integrally out of downed crop which is
surrounded by four concentric rings that give the formation a very orbital look. The outer ring gives us an overall diameter of 230ft.
The interior of the rather impressive star has a number of small standing tufts with sunburst style sprays of barley radiating out
from the base.
The downed areas of this formation have a very fluid and rather pleasing look of quality that we were both very impressed with.
Taken as a whole this is a work to savour & behold, for me this is without a doubt the yin formation from the pair.
To be updated with photos & diagrams.

(A person mentioned that in one of John Michell's books, the 8-pointed star is the emblem of Joseph of Arimathea. You know of him bringing the holy grail to Glastonbury).

I drove past Silbury Hill at Five o'clock this morning (Sunday) and there are two new formations
in the field next to the hill. One of them seems to be three or four rings with a star in the centre
but I couldn't quite make out what the other one was but they are quite large....
Keep up the good work.....
