Nazca and Spirit Bird Connections 

It seems difficult to give this recent formation, reported at Barbury Castle, nr Wroughton, Wiltshire on 14th June  a proper name & I myself cannot think of an appropriate one. Although clearly similar to the recent set of formations, inasmuch that this one also represents a (stylized) animal, it also differs from some of the other which could be clearly categorized as "Jellyfish" , "Dragonfly" , or "Phoenix"  , and also differs from the "Triskele Fish"  formation with respect to design. It is definitely a representation of a “Bird” and resembles some Aztec “Spirit Bird” images so closely that it is almost a facsimile of this (see Comment by Joshua Dingman). But to others it is equally the "Bennu Bird"  from ancient Egypt (see comment by Ricky), the traditional Native American Thunderbird (see comment by Stephane Wuttunee, or also has an interesting connection to ancient Persia (now removed) as its appearance marked the presidential elections in the region. There will probably be many more connections yet to come, be it from Siberia, Mongolia or Australia, making this a very distinct formation (see Birds-in-Mythology for a general overview). 

Of course this might not actually depict a bird. Most of us “see” a bird, because that is what our minds formulate for us. An archer might see a bird with two possible Targets  (one being the head the other the body, an also interesting topic for further interpretation). But I want to use this opportunity to briefly highlight this new set of formations and in particular this “new” design to the ancient American Symbols and in particular to a similar set of Geoglyphs from Nazca, Peru.  

          

Nazca Geoglyphs (Hummingbird, Monkey & Astronaut).

The Nazca lines generally refers to a broad group of geoglyphs contained in the greater Nazca area of Peru.  It includes the Nazca, Ingenio, and Palpa river valleys (Images and some text edited with thanks to http://www.nazcamystery.com )

 Nazca (sometimes spelled Nasca, Nosca, or Naxca) is the name of a system of valleys on the southern coast of Peru, and the name of the region's largest existing town. It is also the name applied to the Nazca culture that flourished in the area between 300 BC and AD 800. They were believed to be responsible for the Nazca Lines and the ceremonial city of Cahuachi; they also constructed an impressive system of underground aqueducts that still function today.

 Why do I want to make a connection between the Nazca lines and these recent Crop Circle Formations, especially this most recent one? There are some similarities and some distinct differences… The most striking similarity to me lies in the element of mystery surrounding both sets, also that both sets are composed of lines, symmetry and geometry and in that at least the most recent set of formations depict specific animals. In the case of this latest “Bird Formation” I further recognize a similarity in “style” (the use of straight lines) and in that the depicted fauna is (so far) either of marine origin or airborne (a large number of the Nazca imageries are birds).

The differences seem apparent, the foremost being that the Nazca Geoglyphs are on rock and much more resistant to time while the Crop Circles are on organic plant matter and seasonally restricted. But then again “time” could be an important message for further interpretation, as a Millennium, a Century, a Year or a “Season” is ultimately a matter of perception (and many comments mention the apparent perception of “speeding time”…).

Most importantly in this context I think is that most Nazca images use mainly straight lines, while most Crop Circles use circles for their geometry. And this is where in my view this current Crop Circle makes a quantum leap. The Circles are emphasized in both the torso (or body) and head (or mind), to such an extent that it almost does look like a target, but with the one enigma being the “either, or…” emphasis (Aim for the “Mind” OR aim for the “Belly”,,, you cannot “hit both targets with one arrow”. The fact that it not only resembles so many mythical beings worldwide, but is also almost identical to the Aztec (Mayan ?) “Spirit Bird” (and other ancient American icons) only makes this more wondrous. I cannot comment on stellar alignments (almost everyone is better at that than me), but I’m willing to bet there is something there too…

Back to the “Quantum Leap”: I must emphasize that I do not have a complete overview on this topic (these are simply “ideas & impressions”). Here we have two “components merging”. We have the typical Circle Formations (almost over-emphasized) and the typical “straight lines” of the forgotten past. I feel they are merging, but into something very new (here some typical examples).

     

1.) New Farm  (Image with thanks John Montgomery Copyright 2009) and (2.) & 3.) Nazca images of “The Monkey” with thanks to NazcaMystery).

Finally, I would like to mention that I did an extensive search on Nazca images, pottery and textiles to see if I could find any image resembling this new formation. I am sure there must be one somewhere, but I did not find it (yet). It is evident that “straight lines” are a feature of the Nazca culture and only begins to develop into circles and spirals shortly before they were conquered by the then emerging “Incan Empire” (which was then conquered by the Spanish). The “Astronaut” is the best example of the late Nazca Culture, the “Monkey” (with its bent arms and spiral tail) a good example of the “transition period”, some pottery highlights the inspiration involved and finally I did find one Nazca formation with “bent wings” (however I too am at a loss at interpreting this). 

    

 

        

My best shot would be that “consciousness” evolves simultaneously throughout history (and space/time), no matter if we are an “Amoeba”, or a “Monkey” (see the "Hundredth Monkey Effect" . Somehow these ancient Geoglyphs remind us of this, but more importantly the current Crop Circles remind us of so much more. We can see the transition some 2000x years ago, from straight lines to circles and now again we see (my opinion) an evolution back to straight lines (but at a much higher level). Some people went to great efforts to leave a message for future generations. These New Formations remind us that we are “thinking too seasonally”. The image is here now, it’s gone tomorrow… There may be no-one to leave a (message to)  I’m soo Old… My bones are cold…. (this is not my own entry, but very fitting… and again a sample of the mistery, but message to… Or … A chance to make a difference! also the deadline ahead…)

Lastly some pictures to highlight the one “Bird” with bent wings from Nazca. I do hope you liked the show (I hardly ever perform on “open-stage”). Any comments, please copy to me (akuaba1@gmx.de), or visit my web-site at WATCH . I cherish exchange... Some final pictures for further thought… RX 

    

Again, Many thanks 2U2, Runi Toconillo.

 

Thunderbird Clears the Air 

From ‘The Sacred Pipe: Black Elk’s Account of the Seven Rites of the Oglala Sioux’ recorded and edited by Joseph Epes Brown, we have a description of the Thunderbird and His function: 

“The great Thunderbird of the west:  Wakinyan-Tanka, is one of the most important and profound aspects of Siouan religion.  The Indian describes Him as living ‘in a lodge on the top of a mountain at the edge of the world where the sun goes down.  He is many, but they are only as One;…  His voice is the thunderclap and rolling thunder is caused by the beating of His wings on the clouds; He has an eye, and its glance is lightning.  In a great cedar tree beside His lodge He has His nest made of dry bones, and in it is an enormous egg from which His young continually issue.  He devours His young and they each become one of His many selves.  He flies through all the domain of the sky, hidden in a robe of clouds…. His functions are to cleanse the world from filth and to fight the Monsters who defile the Waters.  

The Thunderbird is really Wakan-Tanka [the Great Spirit] as the giver of Revelation (symbolized by lightning); He is the same as the great one-eyed bird, Garuda, of the Hindu tradition, or the Chinese Dragon (the Logos), who rides on the clouds of the storm, and whose voice is the thunder.  As giver of Revelation he is identical in function to the Archangel Gabriel of Judaism or Christianity, and Jibrail of Islam. 

It is fitting that the Thunderbird is for the Indian the protector of the sacred pipe, for the pipe, like the lightning, is the axis joining heaven and earth.” (39) 

Other Native versions of the thunderbird are described on:pantheon.org  

            •           Ancient Aztec priests had envisioned a new home where a gigantic eagle slays and devours a snake. [The snake in this context would symbolize evil.] "The legend tells that this vision became a reality... ...a motif identical to a myth known throughout North America: the thunderbird..." (Hultkrantz, The Religions of the North American Indian. 244).  

            •           The Thunder Bird in the vast majority of Native American myths is benevolent towards humans. "Thunder Bird...was a friend of man...a willing protector; ...also a teacher and, at times, a creator." (Wherry. Indian Masks and Myths of the West 59-60). 

From  shannonthunderbird.com , another reference to the thunderbird as a guardian: 

“Thunderbird represents the highest peak of the Black Hills in South Dakota where Thunderbird nests. He is both a powerful and terrifying figure in Lakota stories. Also known as, Wakinyan, He is the guardian of TRUTH and has been known to kill liars when lightning bolts bullet from his eyes and flow out his beak. Never mess with Thunderbird!!”

14 June 2009 Barbury Castle Crop-formation is Showing the Locational Ratio for the SUN at Precise Timings for Y2K and for 2012 December Solstice 

   © 2009 Michael Lawrence Morton .. All Rights Reserved

This involves encodings in the Archaeo-Sky Matrix (acronym ASM), a system which I’ve been studying intensively for more than 18 years as of this writing. Although an introduction to the ASM would be ideal as a first step here, it would actually be beyond the scope of this article. I ask the reader to allow me to dive right in here, if you will, so that I can at least get some of this important current data on the record .. and so that this information can then be validated or invalidated as time goes by, via the empirical evidence which I am assuming will be openly available. I think there is enough data already, based on my own observation, to warrant some documentation and explanation. For now, if you will, I invite you to “follow along” (as much as you can) and to file-away the information and data for future validation or refutation (or possible correction). Let all conclusions be supported by self-evident empirical observable data, aided by the understanding of the observer.

Datasources:     

For latitude and longitude (at centers) of crop-formation locations .. I am using Bert Janssen’s www.cropcirclesandmore.com database.

For latitude and longitude of all sky-locations .. I am using the Astrolog 5.40 program (online freeware with interactive menu) .. sidereal zodiac, with neutral (00 Lat and 00 Long) viewer-perspective from Earth. This data source uses Ecliptic orientation .. and the longitudes must be converted to ALNITAK orientation (West or East) .. with the assumption that Alnitak’s own (sidereal zodiac) ecliptic longitude is at 29 deg (sidereal zodiac) TAURUS 56’ 50” or 03’ 10” West of the Cusp of Gemini/Taurus. Alnitak is the prime meridian marker for all sky-locations in the ASM .. confirming the 1999 theory of Mary Anne Weaver. In order to get sky-location raw data to the nearest arc-second, one must go to the “View” section in the Astrolog 5.40 menu .. and click-off “show graphics” while clicking-on “print nearest second”. You will not actually receive a printout on your printer, but you will see a readout on your screen for nearest arc-second. 

                                       14 June 2009 @ Barbury Castle

Given LAT .. 51.49458 degrees    Given LONG .. -1.77678 degrees

The longitude must be converted to W.Giza .. because the Great Pyramid of Giza is the prime meridian marker in the ASM on Earth’s surface {Munck; 1991; “The Code, Volume A”, self-published} .. and the longitude variance between Giza and Greenwich is assumed as 31 deg 08’ 0.8”.

My assessment .. Longitude encoding 64294.61532 W. Giza  =  32(deg) * 54(min) * 37.20753201(sec) .. and Latitude encoding 59891.43226 North  =  51(deg) * 29(min) * 40.49454514(sec)

Grid Point value (intersection point at center) .. (64294.61532 / 59891.43226)  =  1.073519415

I recognize this figure as a particular ratio .. the ratio of the encoded (ASM) sky-location (against the zodiac background) for the SUN at two particular moments in time on two particular dates. These two timings are the Y2K-moment of Greenwich Midnight at 1999-2000 .. and December Solstice 2012 at 11:11 UT (21 December 2012) which is the exact moment of solstice according to the US Naval Observatory.     

 Here is the encoded equation showing this ratio .. (648 / 603.6220596)  =  1.073519415 .. and I will now explain the details for the SUN’s sky-location at these two precise timings on these dates. It is also important to note that this precision involves more than simply the time-of-day on a particular annual calendar date. This involves the difference caused by Earth’s precession from one year to the next. The encodings are relevant down to a fraction of an arc-second.

 SUN location @ Y2K-moment .. raw data .. 15 deg SAGITTARIUS (sidereal zodiac) 07’ 21” to the nearest arc-sec .. which translates to 164 deg 49’ 29” W.Alnitak. My assessment .. 233280 W.Alnitak  =  164(deg) * 49(min) * 29.02936784(sec).

SUN location @ 11:11 UT on 21 December 2012, moment of solstice .. raw data .. 05 deg SAGITTARIUS (sidereal zodiac) 04’ 26” to the nearest arc-sec .. which translates to 174 deg 52’ 24” W.Alnitak. My assessment .. 217303.9415 W.Alnitak  =  174(deg) * 52(min) * 24.01679283(sec).

Because the Sun is always on the Ecliptic, the ASM encoding for the Sun’s ecliptic latitude is the number 360.

Grid Point location (ASM) value for SUN @ Y2K-moment .. (233280 / 360)  =  648

Grid Point location (ASM) value for SUN @ solstice-moment on 21 December 2012 .. (217303.9415 / 360)  =  603.6220596

Ratio encoding .. (648 / 603.6220596)  =  1.073519415 .. identical to Grid Point value at center of 14 June 2009 Barbury Castle crop-formation.

                                        Counting the Numbers of Days    

Speaking of the “Phoenix” symbol (as relates to this crop-formation) .. the “Phoenix Lights” mass-sighting incident on 13 March 1997 involved a gigantic UFO that hovered for 4 time-minutes over the intersection of Indian School Road and Seventh Avenue in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. I have various postings on this, on the Internet, dating back to just shortly after the incident. If you count the number of days from 13 March 1997 to 21 December 2012, you get 5764 including the 4 leap days. I decoded the location of the “hover-spot” over the just-mentioned intersection as (39478.4176 / 1315.94723)  =  30 Grid Point value location, where 39478.4176 North  =  33(deg) * 29(min) * 41.25226499(sec) .. and where 1315.947253 W.Giza  =  143(deg) * 13(min) * 0.707879103(sec). I recognize the 5764 as representing the ASM figure 5764.166073, which is the original encased height {Munck, 1991} in regular English inches (including capstone) for the Great Pyramid of Giza, and is also the north-face location Grid Point value {Munck, 1991} for the Chephren Pyramid of Giza.

If you take the ratio of these two figures pertaining to the ‘Phoenix Lights” incident, you get (5764.166073 / 30)  =  192.1388691 .. and I recognize this as exactly 10 times the 19.21388691 height {R.Carl, Internet} in regular English feet for the “King’s Chamber” inside the Great Pyramid of Giza. And 19.21388691 is also the apparently encoded (ASM) value for the mean AU distance of planet URANUS {R. Carl; Internet}.

Note .. 192.1388691  =  (206.2648063 / 1.073519415) .. where 206.2648063 is the width {M. L. Morton; Internet} of the King’s Chamber in regular English inches, and is also apparently encoded in the ASM as 10 Royal Cubits of 1.718873385 regular English feet per Royal Cubit {M. L. Morton; Internet}.

And .. (206.2648063 / 1.073519415)  =  (603.6220596 / 3.141592654) .. using the Pi constant out to 10 digits. You will recall that 603.6220596 is the ASM encoding for the Sun’s location as of the 11:11 UT moment of solstice on 21 December 2012.

Keep in mind that Thoth is associated with measurements (and mathematics, of course). Z. Sitchin has made a very good case (IMO at least) for Thoth being the same historical person as Quetzalcoatl .. having been “deposed” in Egypt by his half-brother Ra/Marduk, and having then relocated (circa 3100 BC) to what is now Mexico (also having a major influence in what is now the US and also in what is now Central America). And Quetzalcoatl is associated with these bird symbols pertaining to both the 12 June 2009 Yatesbury and the 14 June 2009 Barbury Castle formations.

Also .. (206.2648063 / 1.073519415)  =  (238.3004375 / 1.240251067) .. where 238.3004375 is the {M. L. Morton, Internet} Grid Point value center location (ASM) encoding for the Great Pyramid of Giza .. and where 1.240251067 is the encoding for the center (Grid Point) location of the well-known “Pi out to 10 digits” crop-formation of 01 June 2008 Barbury Castle.

Center latitude encoding for Great Pyramid of Giza .. 85788.1575 North  =  29(deg) * 58(min) * 51.00366082(sec) .. {M. L. Morton, Internet}. Using the figure 360 for the ASM prime meridian through the center of the Great Pyramid of Giza {Munck, 1991} .. (85788.1575 / 360)  =  238.3004375

Regarding the 01 June 2008 Barbury Castle formation .. raw data .. LAT 51.48886 and LONG -1.77026 .. and my assessment is Latitude encoding 29377.88974 North  =  51(deg) * 29(min) * 19.86334668(sec) and Longitude encoding 23687.05056 W. Giza  =  32(deg) * 54(min) * 13.70778389(sec). So the (center) intersection is (29377.88974 / 23687.05056)  =  1.240251067

Using Pi out to 10 digits .. (3.141592654 / 1.240251067)  =  2.533029591 .. and this is the exact ratio of (603.6220596 / 238.3004375). And .. this is also the exact ratio of (7.957747155 / 3.141592654) .. where 7.957747155 is the {M. L. Morton; Internet} ORION Belt-stars Composite, where the Grid Point value sky-locations for the 3 ORION Belt-stars form this equation .. (43.63323131 Alnitak * 31.00627668 Mintaka) / (170.010936 Alnilam)  =  7.957747155

Now .. regarding the 15 July 2008 Avebury Manor “Solar System” crop-formation .. raw data .. LAT 51.4314 and LONG -1.85696 .. and my assessment is Latitude encoding 67712.74158 North  =  51(deg) * 25(min) * 53.10803261(sec) and Longitude encoding 48858.04898 W. Giza  =  32(deg) * 59(min) * 25.87820391(sec). So the (center) intersection is (67712.74158 / 48858.04898)  =  1.385907605

This crop-formation was obviously placed in close proximity to Avebury Circle, which is in fact seen prominently in the background in the photo on the cropcircleconnector.com website. The (updated to WGS 1984 mapping datum; R. Carl; Internet) ASM encoding for the center of Avebury Circle is Latitude encoding 55770.96019 North  =  51(deg) * 25(min) * 43.74192956(sec) and Longitude encoding 28800 W. Giza  =  32(deg) * 59(min) * 15.25423729(sec) .. and so the intersection is (55770.96019 / 28800)  =  1.936491673

Now recall that this formation shows a layout of the Solar System planets as of 21 December 2012 with the Sun in the center, of course.

Number of Days from 15 July 2008 to 21 December 2012 is 1620, including the leap day.

[1620 / (1.385907605 * 1.936491673)]  =  603.6220596 .. the ASM encoding for the Sun’s location at the 11:11 UT moment of solstice on 21 December 2012.

(1620 / 1.073519415)  =  (480.3471728 * 3.141592654) .. where 480.3471728 is the original encased height {Munck; 1991} including capstone, in regular English feet, for the Great Pyramid of Giza.

(1.936491673 * 1.385907605) / 1.073519415  =  2.5  =  (1620 / 648)  =  (1.240251067 * 2.015720902)

Also .. please note .. that the figure 1.936491673 is the ratio of (480.3471728 / 248.0502134) .. where 248.0502134 is the {Munck, 1991} north-face Grid Point location for the Great Pyramid of Giza .. where (89298.07683 / 360)  =  248.0502134 .. where 89298.07683 North  =  29(deg) * 58(min) * 53.09041429(sec)

The 648, you will recall, is the ASM encoding for the Y2K-moment sky-location of the SUN.  Remember that 1.073519415  =  (648 / 603.6220596) .. where the actual equation for the Sun’s location at the Y2K-moment is (233280 / 360)  =  648, as you will recall from earlier.

The 2.015720902 is the ASM encoding for the sky-location of the {M. L. Morton, Internet} fixed star PEACOCK .. which is quite appropriate considering that a peacock is a bird and that the peacock can symbolize a particular phase in the alchemical process. Also note that 2.015720902  =  (480.3471728 / 238.3004375) which is showing the encoded ratio for (Encased Height in feet / Center location) of the Great Pyramid of Giza. Here is the ASM encoding for sky-location of PEACOCK .. W. Alnitak Ecliptic Longitude encoding 46841.1209  =  150(deg) * 52(min) * 6.005271911(sec) and S. Ecliptic Latitude encoding 23237.90008  =  36(deg) * 15(min) * 43.03314828(sec) .. and so the intersection is (46841.1209 / 23237.90008)  =  2.015720902

If you multiply the Grid Point values for 01 June 2008 Barbury Castle and 15 July 2008 Avebury Manor crop-formations .. (1.240251067 * 1.385907605)  =  1.718873385 .. you have the exact value for the Royal Cubit in regular English feet  {M. L. Morton; Internet}. And here I ask you to recall something I mentioned about the “Phoenix Lights” incident. I mentioned that a gigantic UFO hovered over the intersection of Indian School Road and Seventh Avenue for 4 time-minutes. As researcher Klaus Totzek of Germany had originally pointed out to me, 4 time-minutes is the length of time it takes for Earth to rotate one degree on its axis. I’ve discovered the ASM encoding for equatorial Earth circumference to be 24901.19744 statute miles .. and so one degree of axial rotation would be (24901.19744 / 360)  =  69.16999289 statute miles at the equator in the ASM encoding. If you then take the Grid Point value for that hover-spot over the above-mentioned intersection .. (30 * 69.16999289)  =  2075.099787 statute miles in 30 degrees of Earth’s axial rotation at its equator, which covers 2 time-hours .. which also references the longitude variance between Giza and Greenwich.

This then means that one time-hour of axial rotation at Earth’s equator would encode (2075.099785 / 2)  =  1037.549893 statute miles (in the ASM) for Earth’s equatorial rotation speed in MPH. And now you can see how the value of the Royal Cubit in regular English feet is relevant here .. because .. (1037.549893 / 1.718873385)  =  603.6220596   

Now .. regarding the 25 August 2008 East Field crop-formation (a 7-fold design) .. raw data .. LAT 51.3641 and LONG -1.83892 .. my assessment is Latitude encoding 54325.98537 North  =  51(deg) * 21(min) * 50.72454283(sec) and Longitude encoding 38880 W. Giza  =  32(deg) * 58(min) * 20.94827586(sec) .. and so the intersection is (54325.98537 / 38880)  =  1.397273286

The Number of Days from 25 August 2008 to 21 December 2012 is 1580, including the leap day. I recognize that the 1580 is representing the ASM figure 1580.278857 .. which is confirmed when I notice that (1.397273286 * 360 * 3.141592654)  =  1580.278857

The (360 * 3.141592654) is encoded at the 11:11 UT timing of the solstice moment on 21 December 2012, by an equation showing the sky-locations of the SUN, planet MARS, and planet VENUS. I’ve already shown the details for the SUN’s location at this timing. For MARS at this timing .. raw data .. 01 deg CAPRICORN (sidereal zodiac) 30’ 08” to the nearest arc-sec, and S. Ecliptic 01 deg 09’ 51” to the nearest arc-sec .. my assessment is W. Alnitak 162000  =  148(deg) * 26(min) * 42.0997921(sec) and S. Ecliptic 458.6977616  =  01(deg) * 09(min) * 50.96641795(sec) .. and so the intersection is (162000 / 458.6977616)  =  353.1737313  

For VENUS at this timing .. raw data .. 11 deg SCORPIO (sidereal zodiac) 39’ 38” to the nearest arc-sec, and N. Ecliptic 01 deg 06’ 28” to the nearest arc-sec .. my assessment is E. Alnitak 324696.9701  =  161(deg) * 42(min) * 48.01788969(sec) and N. Ecliptic 167.9767419  =  01(deg) * 06(min) * 27.99612365(sec) .. and so the intersection is (324696.9701 / 167.9767419)  =  1932.987665

And so .. (1932.987665 VENUS * 353.1737313 MARS) / (603.6220596 SUN)  =  1130.973355  =  (360 * 3.141592654) .. all at the same timing .. 11:11 UT, at the moment of solstice on 21 December 2012.

(360 * 3.141592654) also encodes the N. Ecliptic Latitude for the fixed star REGULUS (Horus) .. where 1130.973355 N. Ecliptic  =  27(min) * 41.88790205(sec) .. located very close to the Ecliptic, indeed.

Now .. please recall the figure 192.1388691 from earlier .. and how this is the ratio of (5764.166073 / 30) involving the “Phoenix Lights” incident, and that 192.1388691  =  (648 / 3.141592654) / 1.073519415  =  (603.6220596 / 3.141592654)  =  (238.3004375 / 1.240251067)

Note .. (360 * 3.141592654) * 192.1388691  =  217303.9415 .. the encoding for the W. Alnitak Ecliptic Longitude of the SUN at 11:11 UT on 21 December 2012.
