crop circles

Crop circles are very large patterns that are suddenly discovered in fields of growing crops. So the main crops could be wheat, or oats or barley or oilseed canola or even corn. And the crop circles seem to be made mostly in the middle of the night. And this is in England, where most of the crop circles happen. The night is very short in the summer, because they are so far north.

There's some interview source circle expert Barbara Lamb of California, USA to gain her perspectives on this intriguing topic. She is a much sought-after speaker on crop circles, extraterrestrials and UFOs.

In 2001 she co-authored “Crop Circles Revealed,” a book that comprehensively investigates these beautiful creations. Ms. Lamb is also the former Executive Vice President of the Association for Past Life Research and Therapies, and was a board member and presenter for the Center for Crop Circle Studies in Los Angeles, California, USA.

So, in just a few hours, maybe four or five hours of complete darkness, something very mysterious and wonderful happens. A large pattern, a beautiful, artistic pattern, is mysteriously laid down in the fields. The crop circles are made by what we call the “mysterious phenomenon,” by some unknown source that doesn’t seem to be human, and doesn’t seem to be anything of the Earth.

When this source lays down the crops, it’s so gentle, and so perfect, that the plants just bend over an inch or so from the ground, and they are not damaged in any way whatsoever. They can continue to grow, lying parallel to the ground, and ripen to full maturity.

Although some say that crop circles are simply clever, human-made formations, many extraordinary facts lead to the conclusion that the source of most of these mysterious designs is extra-terrestrial.

Freddy Silva, founder of Crop Circles Secrets, an organization that conducts research on the phenomena, says that true crop circles are not entirely round but tend toward a slightly elliptical shape. Human methods to produce crop circles require a fixed, central rope attached to planks to flatten the crops, and therefore cannot effectively achieve this shape.

In my opinion, the majority of crop circles are made by this genuine phenomenon, the mysterious unknown source. There are some people, usually young men, who will go out in the fields sometimes and they will make a pattern too. Now the big difference is, that with the man-made patterns, when the stalks are bent over and laid down at ground level, they break where they are bent over. They just crack and break.

And the plants die, because they are not getting the nourishment from the roots in the ground. They are lifeless and dull, listless, and there is no energy changes, no sign of anything mysterious having happened in those man-made crop circles. The genuine ones, in contrast, they have an increase in energy. People who are sensitive about energies can feel the energy increase in a genuine crop circle.

Crop circle researchers say with real crop circles, the energy of the site is altered to the extent that sometimes the functions of mobile phones and other electronic devices are affected.

We use the same instrumentation, the same testing devices in all of the crop circles. When we first know of a new crop circle, we test it with these different methods. We don’t know initially if something is man-made or genuine, but these instruments help us. Also we look at the details of the way that the crop circle is laid down. We look at changes in the crops.

In the genuine ones, for instance, there is so much heat applied to the stalks as they are being laid down, and very often curved or swirled or even made into sculptural shapes. There is a huge amount of energy in changes like that. And there are changes in the plants themselves. Because of this high heat that seems to be applied in the making of a crop circle, the growth nodes, which is like a knuckle in a finger, are expanded.

Sometimes they are stretched, elongated. Sometimes they are swollen out to the sides. And sometimes there is a hole that’s been blown in the growth node from the inside of the plant. We notice other changes too. There are actually up to 17 different kinds of bio-physical changes that can happen in these genuine crop circles. It actually seems to be very helpful for the plants, and for people who eat those plants as well. There have been a lot of tests and experiments done.

The seeds, for instance, that come from a genuine crop circle group of plants, even though they are sort of dwarfed and shrunken a bit and misshapen, when those seeds are planted, next to control plants from the same crop, but outside the crop circle, the genuine crop circle plants grow, 40 to 50 to 60% faster, stronger, hardier, and it’s claimed more nourishing. So the plants are actually improved in the crop circle.

Ms. Lamb says that some people have spiritual experiences when encountering real crop circles and others have physical conditions healed upon coming into contact with the energy emanating from them.

Or many times too, people will receive messages when in a genuine crop circle. It seems to be like a spiritual encounter happening. And many of us too, actually feel that we're being observed in particular crop circles. I and some of my friends feel quite reverent about whoever or whatever it was that made the crop circle. And we just automatically give thanks.

The circles’ intelligent, intricate designs have mystified many researchers from various scientific disciplines to the present day. Peer-reviewed scientific studies suggest that genuine crop circles are created by a source beyond our conventional knowledge.

There are definitely different theories about how these genuine crop circles were made. One of them is that there are these balls of light which have been seen by quite a number of people and photographed. Sometimes in the daytime they look like a white globe of light and they're slightly glowing. They're very beautiful. They have been seen, videotaped, photographed, flying across a crop field that is going to be receiving a crop circle.
