A large crop circle has appeared overnight in the South West England county of Dorset.
Although the Daily Mail is
reporting it to be the first for the 2014 season, there have actually
been dozens of crop circles reported this summer, according to the Crop
Circle Connector website. Either way, the crop circle in Dorset is
certainly one of the most spectacular.
The pattern in Dorset was laid down in a
field of wheat, which is the most common crop the formations made in
July are found in. This is the month when wheat is harvested. Veteran
crop circle maker John Lundberg told the BBC, “[Wheat is] the
best crop to work in, that’s when the most spectacular circles appear.
Because each stem is upright, you can get pin sharp clarity.”
The Dorset pattern is over 400 feet long, and is made up of a star pattern with circles within circles.
Williams says, “Last summer we didn’t get many circles, but this beauty certainly makes up for that.”
Williams says the decrease in the number
of crop circles being made is due to farmers getting more and more
frustrated by the loss of crops and the tourist who come to visit the
circles. Williams says many of the great crop circle makers are afraid
of getting fined, and have thus stopped making the circles.
Thus far, Williams himself is the only
crop circle maker to ever get fined. He was fined £100 after being
busted for creating a crop circle in 2000. He has since stopped making
crop circles, not because of fines, but because he has developed hay
fever.
Last year many of the crop circles
that did appear were of low quality, garnering the moniker “crap
circles.” Perusing the crop circles from this year it seems the crap
circles have returned.
Although it is obvious many of the
crop circles are created by human beings, awe inspiring formations, like
the one in Dorset, cause people to wonder if perhaps some of them are
created by extraterrestrials or have some other paranormal origins.
Last year, Williams told the Daily Express that he has had paranormal experiences out in the fields while making crop circles.
Williams said, “I’ve seen small balls
of light which have entered the field and chased us out on one occasion.
I’ve seen them passing overhead. On two occasions we’ve also seen
black, shadowy figures. Not as clear as a person, a little more rounded
but a human shape. There are so many things like that. When teams of
people go out into the fields and make large talismanic magical symbols,
somehow that does actually have some effect on physical reality and
strange things happen.”
According to Williams, he is not the
only one who experiences paranormal activity out in the field. He says
all of the crop circle teams he is aware of have had similar
experiences.
