The field orientation of Peaks Down tells us two kinds of extra astronomical information: the location of our Sun on July 7, and the importance of an apogee full Moon on July 7 

A new crop picture at Peaks Down seems to show our “Earth” as its large central circle, along with 12 surrounding circles of varying size, which may represent the “12 full Moons” of any lunar year. Those 12 full Moons were drawn according to an elliptical orbit, so that the one closest to Earth (perigee) could be assigned as January 11, 2009, while the one furthest from Earth (apogee) could be assigned as July 7, 2009. Next, three full Moons which lie furthest from Earth were drawn with the largest circles, meaning that they are trying to tell us about upcoming dates of June 7, July 7 or August 6, 2009.

Now the field orientation of Peaks Down tells us two kinds of extra astronomical information: (a) where our Sun will be located on July 7, and (b) the importance of an apogee full Moon on July 7. Looking first at the diagram below, one can see on the right four cardinal directions of North, South, East or West where the crop picture appeared: 

Then on the left, one can see how the neighbouring M4 motorway and four small “teardrop” shapes are aligned slightly north of west at 305^o, which is close to the 308^o of sunset on July 7 at latitude 51^o N. If those four “teardrops” were meant to represent discrete emissions from our Sun, then their choice of field location for this picture makes a lot of sense!  

In the next diagram, one can see their 12-month calendar of full Moons, with perigee or apogee dates noted. A small “teardrop” on the left indicates our current full Moon of May 9, while the centremost of three large circles suggests another full Moon of July 7, which also lines up with crop tramlines:  

The suggested date of “July 7” from Peaks Down on May 9 may be relevant to another crop picture from Roundway on May 10, which shows an upcoming flare / coronal mass ejection from our Sun. Two earlier crop pictures from Rutland’s Farm on April 23, or Morgan’s Hill on April 24, also seemed to show an upcoming flare from our Sun, along with a time frame of two and one-half lunar months until it might occur (April 24 to July 7). Earlier this week, our Sun produced a small coronal mass ejection for the first time since 2006: see sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov.
