FIELD REPORT

WHEN DAY GIVES WAY TO NIGHT AT AVEBURY

On the north eastern side of  the embankment of Avebury Stone Circle, is located a field, which, is notorious for the phenomenon, ever since the famous 1994 The Web formation. This was the formation that sparked the start of The Crop Circle Connector web site, so it remains a field fondly remembered by the Connector team.  

In 2002, we have something very different, and may show us the balance one needs in researching the crop circle phenomenon. This latest shape has undeniable representations of the Yin & Yang principle of Chinese thinking of nature itself.  We see the central section of the pattern the two opposites, with the general rule that the day is Yang at the top of the symbol. The darker opposite is night and winter Yin, normally expressed with smaller dots inside. These were not found in the formation, but we have the very central circle separating the two opposites. This could be showing the imbalance that we are experiencing in our society at this time. Its an interesting observation, not only from a point of view for humanity, but also from an Earthly perspective.

On the ground, the floor construction was very impressive. This could be easily seen even from 500 feet in a micro-light. Small channels of crop around the formation were also visible, only a few feet across, but a very unusual feature, was evident around the central portion of the formation. The crop was placed at a different angle, to the normal flow. This was only in a small portion of curved crop around the wall of the inner pattern.  

This was the second formation to appear in this field in 2002, placed some 80 yards from the early formation reported in June. This field in particular in full of ley lines running through into the ancient stone circle, and indeed running out. There was certainly a calmness within this formation, which I am in no doubt is partly due to its location close to the henge itself.  

Returning to the potential meaning of this formation, it does indeed speak to us on different levels. The world is in chaos at the moment, with world affairs on the brink of meltdown, and yet these designs continue to form, and provide a message I am sure for us to comprehend. It’s a shame they don’t reach people on a wider audience, but we all have our part to play in providing balance and harmony in our lives, and hopefully on a global scale. .
