Willoughby Hedge Sun AND Moon
In Part 1 I showed the discovery of the relationship of the Willoughby Hedge crop formation to sunrise and
sunset on specific dates.
On May 20th 2018 (watch this date!) after returning home from holiday I decided to be more specific after
I had several questions from readers.
In the next picture I have filled in the exact date, time and headings (in degrees =˚) of the “body” and “feet”
of the “insect”.
Doing this I wondered if the crop formation could have more meaning, for instance with the moonrises and moonsets or phases of the moon.
This is what I found........
The crop formation depicts almost precisely sunrises/sunsets AND moonrises/moonsets!
Going clockwise from North the lines show:
May 8 sunrise 05.20 AM at 61˚ moonrise May 2010.20 AM at 60˚
November 11 sunrise at 118.57˚ moonrise May 8 02.51 AM at 117˚
November 9 sunset at 243˚ moonset May 8 12.23 PM at 245˚
May 8 sunset 08.34 PM at 300˚ moonset May 2001.11 AM at 301˚
The crop formation was reported on May 8th and in the picture the two upper yellow arms depict sunrise and sunset on that day.
The two lower yellow arms depict sunrise on November 11th and sunset on November 9.
The upper green arms point at the moonrise and moonset on May 20th.
The lower green arms point at the moonset and moonrise on May 8th.
This at first glance rather sloppy executed crop formation (sloppy because canola is not an easy crop to make crop formations in) hides a very clever design.
What makes it special for me is that I discovered the relationship to the moonrise and moonset on the day this moonrise and moonset was happening (May 20th).
(But this again must be a major coïncidence (LOL).
What I want to find out is whether the placement of this crop formation on this spot with this orientation gives these unique results.
For this I plan to execute an experiment: I am going to place the crop formation (copy-and-paste it in Google Earth) on a random spot in the landscape of Wiltshire in such a way of course that the tramlines in the picture will fit with the tramlines in the field.
Then I will take the same measurements as ascribed above and will see if alignments are occuring with sunrises/sunsets and moonrises/moonsets.
I will repeat the experiment a few times.
If it is so that these random placements give the same kind of alignments with sun and moon on a certain date
as the crop formation at Willoughby Hedge, one would be able to say that there is nothing special about it.
If the experiments' outcome is different (i.e. none of the alignments 'fit' to sun or moon alignments) one would be able to say that the placing of Willoughby Hedge is indeed very clever and we can make a deep bow for the circle makers.
Monday May 21th.
I did 2 tests: one in a field South East of Corsham and one near Salisbury.
Corsham
Salisbury
Result: none of the alignments coincide with neither a sunrise/sunset nor a moonrise/moonset.
My provisional theory is that the Willoughby Hedge crop formation is unique by its placement and orientation.
The North South orientation and the six armed design define sunrises/sunsets and moonrises/moonsets on specific dates.
These are:
the sunrise and sunset on May 8th (the day it was reported)
the moonrise and moonset on May 8th
the moonrise/moonset on May 20th (the day I decided to find out if there was a connection to the moon)
the sunrise on November 11th
the sunset on November 9th
A theory is not a good theory when it is not ultimately tested.
So I plan to do more tests and I invite everyone to do the same and let me know if I missed something!
Thanks for reading and Stay Tuned.....
