What started life, on the 11^th of July, as a vast but nevertheless simple ring of flattened corn in a Cambridgeshire wheat field has now morphed, several times in fact, into what can only be described as a mind stretching, paradigm shifting orgasmagram of the very highest order. Such is the beauty and scale of these combined events that, for me, they represent a quite unprecedented, unique and awe inspiring occurrence that demands serious attention from all quarters, will such attention be forthcoming?

 I doubt it. 

If size matters, disappointment will not be an option. 

First came the big ring, and my, is it big. Spanning a massive and potentially rather ominous 666’ ft diameter. (This figure is not an approximation). Most of the field has been used in the creation of this formation making it one of the most expansive crop glyphs in the brief history of the circle phenomenon. Alone a ring of this size would be considered a major logistical event worthy of some considerable admiration. To my amazement the ring itself repeated the same numbers in its width that were found in the overall diameter of the formation, with the tape measure pulling tight at exactly 18’ ft, (now we’re in trouble!) At the center of the mighty ring is a beautifully swirled circle with a diameter of 45’ ft. This also arrived as part of the initial, stage one event.

About a week later the Magog field took its second hit with the arrival of a most elegant, 237’ ft dia, labyrinth that is positioned just inside the inner edge of the stage one ring. A very fine wall of standing wheat, just a few stems thick, separates the maze from the ring itself. This labyrinth seems to be crafted out of the ripe wheat with an attention to detail not seen for some years in the crop fields of England. Every aspect of the winding walkway has been finished with a razor sharp edge that gives one the impression that whatever is responsible for this awesome creation has a fanatical zeal for absolute, total perfection, no less. At the center of the labyrinth a standing ring of crop is positioned within the central circle, offset from center by a considerable degree. The purpose of this is not clear but nevertheless is a fine detail worthy of our admiration. Walking through this network of 3’ ft dia. paths left me in no doubt that the agency that created this marvel is able to gain absolute control over the chosen area and seemingly does, with ease, what I would consider, near impossible. On the ground the entire laid crop area has the appearance of a slightly rippling carpet flowing throughout the whole maze with a consistency and fluidity that is obliviously the result of a single and masterful hand, not a stalk out of place. This effect is consistent throughout the whole three stages of the overall formation and is, for me, an excellent example of what a real crop glyph looks and feels like. Subjectively the labyrinth aspect of the formation was a huge pleasure to visit and has worked an almost tangible magic on those others fortunate enough to have had interaction with this high work.

Some days later the second addition arrived on the scene. Wow, this one is a real left-brain killer. From an aerial perspective a kind of step pyramid is now seen rising out of the field next to the maze. At ground level this is a bizarre sight, six standing square-ish walls of wheat with rounded corners, each eighteen inches thick fit together to produce a most amazing design concept, very much in keeping with the uniqueness and originality of the overall formation. The quality of construction, as with the labyrinth, shows absolutely no compromise whatsoever. There is no doubt that the same agency that produced the ring and maze has returned to the field to work the same magic once again, stunning. At the center of this crafted temple the crop has been laid down in such a way so as to create a shining, four-sided apex stone, very effective indeed.

It is rather interesting to note the positioning of the two major formations within the ring thing. First the maze arrives and takes up a quarter of the inner expanse of standing crop. Next the steps come down, or possibly up, next to the maze, thus using up another quarter of the available space. This suggests that we are possibly in for another couple of major events at this site.

I spent two nights in this formation hoping for just that, alas it didn’t happen; nevertheless the rewards were very rich indeed in other more subtle ways. 

Who the hell are Gog & Magog?  

UPDATE 

“Then I saw an angel come down from heaven with the key of the Abyss in his hand and an enormous chain.  He overpowered the dragon, that which is the devil and Satan and chained him up for a thousand years………When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will come out to deceive all the nations in the four quarters of the earth, GOG AND MAGOG and mobilize them for war.  His armies will be as many as the sands of the sea; they will come swarming over the entire country and besiege the camp of the saints, which is the city that God loves.  But fire will come down on them from heaven and consume them.  Then the devil, who misled them, will be thrown into the lake of fire and sulphur, where the beast and the false prophet are, and their torture will not stop, day or night, for ever and ever.”
