Three is the Magic Number!
We are a bit behind with things at present due to the passing of Steve mum. So we will cover the season still the best we can, and of course the conference will go ahead, but updates to the website, and newsletters might
be delayed. Thank you.
This circle was reported on Saturday the 14th of July and is located close to the village of Winterbourne Bassett, near to both Hackpen Hill and Avebury. The circle measures approximately 200ft in diameter and is in a field of maturing wheat. The small village of
Winterbourne Bassett lies just north of Avebury and close to Hackpen Hill. There have been any number of crop circles there in the past, no doubt due to it’s proximity to Avebury.
This circle is very interesting as it isn’t a circle! It is based on the triquetra, a
triangular design made from circles or curves, its design transcends cultures and times, but is most often seen in Celtic art. Often the circles intersect to create the Vesica Pisces – but the exact composition of the design will only be truly revealed when Karen has drawn it. Please keep checking back on our website for updates on the Geometry Gallery. Three is a magic number, or so the song goes, but the depth to which the idea of ‘trinity’ is embedded in our culture and psyche cannot be
overstated.
It has been over ten years since we first began the Summer Crop Circle Lectures and during that time the crop circle phenomenon, while remaining constant, has changed enormously. The way we think about the subject and interact with the circles has moved on and so has the way we do our conference, with emphasis on community and the sharing of ideas
and experiences.
Our Ethos: You’ll find our conference is a little less about entertainment and more about community and collegiality. It’s an event where the crop circles are not only enjoyed and celebrated, but where people can come and join in the conversation, share
their experiences and participate in a more inclusive and collaborative way. As important as the circles themselves are the people who are drawn to them, often full of experiences and stories, insight and wisdom. It is they (in addition to our speakers) that make up the ‘body conference’. As always, our speakers will be drawn from those who have actually spent time in the fields and those who are actively engaged in the endeavour to better understand the phenomenon. Our speakers will not just be
published authors, or professional speakers, but people who genuinely have something interesting and progressive to say about the phenomenon – some will be updating us about where their research has taken them in the last year, or over several years.
