Crop Circle Season Begins

On June 1, a 300-foot crop circle was found near Barbury Castle, a hotbed for crop circle activity. Though initially appearing somewhat more humble than circles which have come before, analysis of the "ratchet" design has left many experts breathless with the complexity hidden within its angles.
Crop circle followers who find this new pattern vaguely familiar may recall the stunning 1991 triangle pictogram formed in the same location. The pictogram depicted the same ratchet extending from one corner of the triangle.
Mathematicians studying the new formation have made the startling discovery that pi to the tenth decimal point is encoded within the ratchet (3.14159265358), although there is some debate over whether this is "all" the ratchet has to say on pi-related matters. The number 666 also seems to be relevant to this formation.
Other experts also locate a solar system map within the ratchet, possibly pointing toward August 9, 2014.
Reports from the ground indicate that the lay of the formation is quite clean and bears no boot or plank marks. Throughout the formation, barley was observed bent close to the ground but not broken, and the famous "bent node" phenomenon was also observed.

it would have been 17 decimal places...

I was thinking about these three circle too. The best I could come up with was 3.141592653. . .
Yes
indeed

More links please!
Hi Kal,
Can you provide links to explanations of the solar map and 666 connection? I read the Earthfiles report, but didn't see this discussed there.
Hi there, The link
Hi there,
The link included in the article to Crop Circle Connector's coverage has some pretty good analysis of these issues.

Barbury: http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/2008/barbury/barbury2008a.html 2 other crop circles with similarly impressive mathematical knowledge relating to eclipses have appeared in the last two weeks:

This is interesting in regard to the recent piece on the election suggesting that the August eclipse might have significance. One more:

Quite amazing how persistent the circlemakers are in projecting this message about eclipses.

Evidence over beliefs
I'd say first let's not fall prey to reducing the options to the usual "humans or aliens". Maybe it's neither, and maybe "aliens" aren't even from other planets.
As far as it being done by humans with boards: The 2002 Windmill Hill structure was 900 feet in diameter and consisted of 409 circles. It was calculated, when taking as points of reference the latest time the hill was seen before the formation appeared, and the time the formation was first seen, that a circle must have been formed every 7 seconds. This is assuming this entire deduced interval of time was used to make the formation.
This only accounts for the number of circles, without even looking at the absolutely perfect complexity of it.
Guys with boards? Skepticism and gullibility can run in either direction.

Wow, those things are pretty impressive. Thanks for the links Daniel. I'm amused thinking that this supernatural, creative-intelligance simply throws down coded mandalas free of any malevolent intent and then sits back and watches as earthlings react.
. . .
Its funny, kinda like music and all art, that everyone will decode the message in a different way, through their own process and often come up with the same message or lean towards a popular or pure version. I wander if our circle-makers have ways of tracking our theories, charts, conferences, no-doubt they have ways. . .
. . .
In any case, in response to Keiths question about the 3 circles, i was wondering too and, according to Daniels link, one of the phtotshopped versions of the 'ratchet' points to the 3 as the belt of Orion and kindof maps the whole thing out as a star chart.
. . .
Thought that was cool, but of course wherever theres 3 you can only quess its pointing to all kinds of possibilities surrounding the nature of 3, the Divine number or numbers.
. . .
Also, I'm going to have to majorly plug this movie, it just came out on DVD...Rolland Emmerich does it again, only this time he really does it. This moive is not only beautifully shot and composed but the message supports many non-contemporary beliefs about our History.
A Must see.

For a rare insight into the mysterious nature of the Crop Circle phenomena...here is a series of interviews with known circle-makers. As you will see, they are just as baffled as anyone else. The line between "hoax" and "genuine" is blurred.

Many circlemakers are interviewed. Watch for commonalities in their testimonies.
