Castle hill Crop Circle

Axis mundi

mene, mene, tekel, ufarsin 

Castle hill CC at first seems a totally boring CC and usually it’s the surrounding features that are the clue in this mystery. Especially in this case considering it was 350km north of the all the others. Firstly I’ve constructed what appears to be an omphalos, or “navel” symbol, which was commonly used, in ancient times as a metaphor for the “axis mundi” or “central pillar” of one’s cosmos. This symbol is mirrored in the castle on Castle Hill on a large “mound”.  The castle itself may be a reference to the penis of Osiris or masculine energy atop the “primordial hill”.  This navel symbol had many overlays and functions on many levels corresponding also to the four worlds in Kabbalah, which came much later after Egypt. Each world (from the top down) an aspect of the creators name YHVH.

One can see the four levels of the “navel” below in the diagram.

Ancient Egypt (far right) notice the mound underneath?  

an Irish version (four sections) 

The Delphi navel, (left) note the four main sections) similar to the crop circle navel.  

The shape of the navel stone was important in regards to the top curve representing the curvature of the “heavens” with the four aspects joining heaven and earth.

This shape has pretty much pervaded everything in architecture down throughout history, the origin of the curve was repeated in Kabbalah. Kabbalah also has 3 main pillars. Two outer, and one central pillar, of which the design is repeated throughout history as either a Djed pillar or later configurations of pillars and symbols of pillars.

Here’s an older version (right) from ancient Egypt incorporating the central Djed pillar with double arms (outer two pillars), one set holds up the heavens the other rules the earth with crook and flail.  Note the handle (Jedi light saber)

Note the curved “dome” at the top, underneath also “two arms” which are entwined with an Ankh, symbol for immortality the twin arms later becoming “two pillars” of Joachim and Boaz, the “four worlds” (horizontal) just above the lower set of arms.

This Djed pillar is also a representation of Osiris, who is “meant” to be the central pillar holding up “maat” or balance between heaven and earth.  Every king in Ancient Egypt was a manifestation of “Osiris”.

 (left) we can see the Djed pillar with

the two “feathers” on top which represent

light, these later became the basis behind

the Mosaic “tablets” note the shape of the

rounded tops (below). 

One can see the four horizontal sections again in the pillar itself.

The two pillars originated also from Egypt and were depicted as “feathers” on the headdress of Amun Ra (Amun means “hidden”)

Feathers later became symbolized by the two pillars of Joachim and Boaz

in Kabalistic literature and also in biblical lore the tablets of Moses (thutmoses, thoth)

Charlton Heston (left as Moses) losing the plot in this illustration here, note the “two” bolts of lightning… the tablet on the left, same shape. Two tablets (center) and (right) the 3 pillars of “light” (Kabbalah) in the church windows.  (Far right) 3 pillars Kabbalah (note the middle pillar also has 4 Sephiroth)  

Below we have a zodiac of Denderah, note the four “worlds” held up by two hands (2 pillars).   

A little history on the thought behind the primordial mound and the Djed pillar (phallus, navel, ad finitum) it was also considered a phallus due to the masculine nature of the energy underpinning the cosmological metaphysical process of reaching upward toward the “heavens”.

In ancient Egyptian thought, the world (earth) was the considered the feminine archetype of fertility and abundance.  “Primordial mounds”, were originally “pyramids”, later attributed to sacred “mountains” that were placed on her “shoulders” allowing for a connection between heaven and earth.  This “primordial mound” back then, may have be attributed to the original “Cheops” Pyramid.   This Pyramid may also have been considered as “Osiris”.   According to Peter Tompkins in his book “secrets of the Great Pyramid”, the main Pyramid was constructed during the constellation of Cancer over 70,000 years ago.

This “mound” was considered sacred and represented the source of all knowledge and wisdom and was connected in an oblique way to fertility, mainly as the higher rites were performed around the time of the “flooding” of the Nile.  All the myths were centered on this fertility for the benefit of all.  These “fertility rites” later transferred to the Hebrew religion, the tabernacle itself a representation of a female’s reproductive system, then took on the continuation of the “sacred mound” albeit the mound changed to a “tent”.  Sadly the information regarding the sacred feminine (Shekinah) was lost and a continuation of masculine deity worship prevailed and every building in every major city on the planet ended up a representation of a male lingam.  Higher, higher, harder harder!

We’ve all heard the myth about Isis piecing together the chopped up Osiris, later she seats herself on the lingam of the repaired Osiris to give birth to little Horus.  Well maybe this castle is his last “bit” for Isis to find? Hell the Castle is as hard as it’s going to get! If one is inclined to change a B for P then this “B”rick Castle may be a representation of a primed bulbous cavernosis atop the primordial mound? 

On to the CC and some more evidence. First some information on the Castle Hill tower nearby the crop circle.  This castle was built approx 555BC.  I thought the age of the building very significant in this interpretation... Historically around the time this building was built, the last king of Babylon was taking power…

Labashi-Marduk, Chaldean king of Babylon (556 BCE), and son of Nergal-sharezer (Neriglissar). Labashi-Marduk succeeded his father when still only a boy, after the latter's four-year reign. Most likely due to his very young age, he was unfit to rule, and was murdered in a conspiracy only nine months after his inauguration. Nabonidus was consequently chosen as the new king Nabonidus (Akkadian Nabu-nāid) was the last King of Babylon, who reigned from 556 BC to 539 BC. His reign was characterized by his lack of interest in the politics and religion of his kingdom. Nabonidus in this Stella shows him praying to the moon, sun and "Venus".

Note the curved shape again. 

Nabonidus, whose relationship with the previous Chaldean Kings of Babylon is “unclear”, came to the throne in 556 BC by overthrowing the youthful king Labashi-Marduk. In 549 BC he left Babylon to live in Arabia leaving his son Belshazzar behind to rule the empire in his stead.

In 539 BC, according to the Hebrew Bible, while Belshazzar and the nobles of the empire “were feasting and drinking from the chalices” from the...

Hebrew Temple of Jerusalem, a hand wrote an unknown Aramaic text on the wall:

 mene, mene, tekel, ufarsin … you know the rest… 

The name is the Greek form of Babel, which is derived in turn from the Semitic form Babilu, meaning "The Gate of God"

Babel is the name of a site where, according to the Bible

 (Genesis, 11:1-9), an “unsuccessful” attempt was made to erect a tower of enough height to reach “Heaven” - But in the Hebrew language there is a similar word, "balal", which means

"Confusion"
