The Dragonfly Design

crop_1416819c.jpg

As if the recent jellyfish crop circle wasn't strange enough, a dragonfly crop circle nearly as big as the jellyfish appeared this past week in the village of Yatesbury, Wiltshire, England.

In this design, if you look closely, you can even see the intricate webbings of the dragonfly wings. It is interesting to note that both jellyfish and dragonflies will adjust the appearance and color of their bodies to adapt to differnet environments, avoid predators, and even communicate. Perhaps nature is trying to teach us to be more transparent like some of our strange animal friends?

Although the typical first reaction to crop circles in popular news media is to debate about "who" made the crop circles, maybe it's more important that we look to the meaning of the crop circles. Regardless of where they come from, could the meaning of these symbols be getting more transparent for those who pay attention?

Dual nature

Crop formations are possibly the most amazing thing going on the world.

Just some thoughts popping in to my head...the names of these creates imply a kind of dual nature or combination of unlikely things...a message about embracing our dual nature?

Jelly/fish
Dragon/fly

Any other animals that could be used in this way?

Sea/horse

You KNOW if a seahorse appears I'm gonna say I made it happen.

This 'circle' looks manmade to me. It is crude and totally lacks the beauty, design logic and geometric composition of the genuine ones. The lines are totally uneven and the stems look like they were flattened by a herd of elephants.

Meh, not so sure about

Meh, not so sure about that...look at the details on the wings and the tiny cilia-like things on the head.  The tramlines are making it look a bit messed up in places but I think if you look at the overall form plus the aforementioned details, this is of non-human quality.

Esoteric agenda fools

Seahorse was a good guess...

So the newest circle is three fish swimming out to the edge of a circle of circles. http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/2009/bishopcanning/bishopcannings2009... I'm definitely sensing a theme here...

Origin - Meaning

      Adam, you bring up an interesting question, not only concerning crop formations and other metaphysical realities but, concerning other more “normal” events.

      While people first ask, “who made them”, and wonder, “what do they mean” only as an after thought when it comes to crop formations, it’s the other way around when it comes to stuff like music and movies. People don’t ask, “Who made them” because it’s common knowledge. And only a few of us ask, “What do they mean” and even fewer ask, “Where do they come from”

      Some of the music I hear, and some of the movies I’ve watched seem to come from places far outside our conventionally imagined space/time, just like I believe the crop formations do.

Dragonfly Crop Circle

I came across this quote from The Mystery of the Crystal Skulls: A real Life Detective Story of the Ancient World by Chris Morton: ' The Maya considered the dragonfly to be one of the symbols of Kukulcan also known as Quetzalcoatl whose spirit is said to be connected with the fulfillment of the Mayan Calendar'.

Article about dragonfly formation

Cropcircleconnector.com has additional analyses of each formation, if you go to the nav that says AERIAL SHOTS GROUND SHOTS DIAGRAMS FIELD REPORTS COMMENTS ARTICLES An article worth checking out about the dragonfly formation, reveal potential messages about solar activity etc: http://www.cropcircleconnector.com/2009/yatesbury/articles.html

Spiritualists admit defeat at the hands of science.

The real is either enchanting, or it isn't.

If you find yourself trying to enchant the world, then you've admit defeat.

As long as this is the best you can do, then there is no integration between science and spirit, and there will be no transformation;  Just gasps of superstition fleeing from scientific principles, wishing and hoping for a prior innocence that's never going to happen.  (Or, should it come to pass -- at what tragic loss, and requiring such great oppression of the spirit.)

Is nature trying to tell us

Is nature trying to tell us something? On the heels of the jellyfish crop circle comes a magnificent dragonfly.
