Attached photographs (1)

inferred link These pictures did not come with a source record of this formation. Each one is a single-photograph archive entry whose own date and place the index matched to this formation; nothing about the formation itself comes from them. The rule, the score and the evidence are printed with each record so the link can be checked, and the credit stays with the photograph.

Claims about this formation

47 claim(s) extracted by lexicon from the texts above, written by CGI, Dr Living Stone, Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew), Steven, Temporary Temples. A claim row is a record of what an author wrote, with the sentence verbatim. It is not evidence about the formation, and nothing here is tested on this page.

Up to 3 quote(s) per type, verbatim from the document:

• “A crop picture on June 16, 2017 at Target Wood shows an “isocursal hexagram” to represent the “setting Sun”, and points to where our Sun will set on August 21, 2017, the day of a solar eclipse.” astronomical · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “Superimposed on that “isocursal hexagram” is a “Tree of Life” from sacred geometry, which suggests that certain events associated with the eclipse may bring us back from “death into life”.” astronomical · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “Actually it points slightly left (or south) of where our Sun set on June 16, or closer to where our Sun will set in the month of August, for example during a solar eclipse on August 21, 2017.” astronomical · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “A crop picture on June 16, 2017 at Target Wood shows an “isocursal hexagram” to represent the “setting Sun”, and points to where our Sun will set on August 21, 2017, the day of a solar eclipse.” comparison · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “The underlying meaning of an “isocursal hexagram”, drawn two other times in crops at Ackling Dyke in 2014 (see sixpenny-handley 2014), or Etchilhampton in 2016 (see latest-crop-circles-2016-august), is that “love is the law”.” comparison · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “DRONE IMAGES THE CROP CIRCLE CONNECTOR COPYRIGHT 2017” comparison · source page
• “The crop artist also added a third, overlapping symbol in the form of an “equilateral triangle” (see target comments).” authorship_et · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “Why else would the crop artist have added this somewhat-superfluous symbol to his “isocursal hexagram” and “Tree of Life”, unless to suggest a time period of “60 days”?” authorship_et · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “By superimposing the “Tree of Life” from sacred geometry on an “isocursal hexagram”, in the same way that our Moon overlaps the Sun during an eclipse, the crop artist seems to be suggesting that certain events associated with a solar eclipse on August 21 will be done “with love”, and also will bring us all back metaphorically “from death into life”.” authorship_et · Red Collie (Dr. Horace R. Drew) · source page
• “Paul Jacobs of CGI managed this crop circle for the farmer at Target Wood, near Badbury Rings, Dorset, UK, crop circle which was reported on the 16th of June, 2017. We say goodbye to this thought provoking crop circle as it is harvested today.” authorship_human · CGI · source page

Geometry

21 diagram file(s) on this page. measured from the diagram itself, and experimental: the extractor's rotational order is right on 88.8 % of a 200-diagram hand-labelled set against a gate of 90 %, so read a number here beside the picture rather than instead of it.

Experimental, and marked ≈ wherever it appears. These numbers are read off a drawing, not off the field: the extractor's rotational order agrees with a hand-labelled set on 88.8 per cent of 200 diagrams against a gate of 90 per cent, its element count is within one on 97.5 per cent, and its ring count is not calibrated at all. Nothing in the analysis tree is derived from the rotational order while that gate is unmet.

Diagrams that look like these: cc 50ecd72d · ccc 50ecd72d · ccc 450ac04b · ccc 8464a129 · ccc 2f19fec0 · ccc 211685f9 · tt dc8e4799 · tt 7c1f725c · tt adf3f5b9 · tt e9b88090 · tt 765d3548 · tt 2b357019 · tt 06aad25c · tt 55911a6e · tt 5ed034fe · tt 7d5cc0cb · tt 0134ad33 · tt 44c57a02 · tt 36f17693 · tt 34f13d81— the nearest by perceptual hash.
