Patty Greer: Crop circles & the Real Circlemakers (July 2013)

Thursday, July 6, 2023

[vomitnest]

Since 1994 a group of three 'artists' has laid claim to some of England's most elaborate crop circles. The group originally named Team Satan has since changed its name to 'The circlemakers'- a name seemingly adopted to cause maximum confusion;

Ryu Number: Nick Kang Wilson

True Crime: Streets of LA may seem like your usual mediocre tryhard third-person shoot-bang violence delight, but don't be fooled—it isn't much of a delight at all. It follows player character Nick Kang Wilson, recently suspended for repeated counts of excessive force, but now reinstated into an autonomous division with authority over the entire city of Los Angeles, which is actually pretty in-line with how real departments attend to police brutality so I can't complain about that. He's been tasked with solving a series of bombings in Chinatown, but all the while, a far more personal mystery hangs over Nick Kang Wilson like a greasy specter: Who the hell gave him a gunWhat happened to his father?

Anyway, Nick Kang Wilson has a Ryu Number of 3.

Yes, that's actually Snoop Dogg in True Crime, as opposed to just Snoop Dogg providing his likeness to a character. He says things like, "This is the Snoop Dizzle!" and, "Feels good to be the D-O-Double-G," which nicely disambiguates the issue.

Wilson is only referred to as "Nick" in the versions of Tony Hawk's Underground 2 he appears in, but both games came out through the same publisher, and the outfit "Nick" wears is an exact match for one Wilson wears in True Crime:

(Also, can I mention how maddening it is to watch Tony Hawk's Underground 2 footage and try to figure out if it's in the correct aspect ratio or not? I kept watching video after video, thinking, okay, surely this video was uploaded to YouTube without care; look how vertically squashed the skaters are—and then something circular would come across the screen, but properly executed in infinite symmetry, as the great circlemaker intended. I am beginning to suspect that, somehow, I am watching playthroughs wherein all the skateboarding—the actual gaming bits—are in the wrong aspect ratios, while at the same time all of the menus and nondiegetic indicators are properly squared away. But that can't be possible, can it? Can it?)

(Maddening.)

"I have a theory: over time, our favorite verses of Scripture become the script of our lives. As we live out the promises of God, those verses become the storylines of our lives. And our lives become a subplot in the story God has been writing throughout history." Mark Batterson Reading "Big Dreams & Powerful Prayers" by Mark Batterson with the kids. This line jumped out at me. My favorite verses are from the psalms. I've definitely lived some like Psalm 84:3 "Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young— a place near your altar, Lord Almighty, my King and my God." Others I'd like to see become part of my storyline but haven't yet. Like: "The Lord announces the word, and the women who proclaim it are a mighty throng: The Lord announces the word, and the women who proclaim it are a mighty throng: Kings and armies flee in haste; the women at home divide the plunder." Psalms 68:11‭-‬12 Maybe some day.... . . . #mondaymotivation #monday #bibleverses #bible #dailybibleverse #dailydevotional #reallife #storyofmylife #godsplan #godsgotthis #psalms #dailyverse #markbattersonbooks #circlemaker #kidsbooks #walkthisway https://www.instagram.com/p/CBvX1dVh1ZG/?igshid=1ds559yfbgfck

The memories function on Facebook has a habit of dragging up some pretty cringeworthy moments, as well as some really good times like these. . . But seeing these happy memories also makes me feel sad – I remember these moments like they happened yesterday. . . I am so different now, compared to the girl I was in these photographs and these times have drifted into the distant past so quickly. . . As the moon in Gemini transits my Ascendant, I find myself reflecting on the physical, mental and emotional aspects of the maturation process, and the arduous trials of Pluto and Saturn‘s recent transits to my Sun. . . Happy as I am right now, I’m mourning a part of my life which is gone forever – a piece of myself that I’ll never get back. . . As I lament the years I spent dancing to the beat of my heart, I realise I‘ve let go of a lot – including the person I was in these pictures. . . #memories #geminiascendant #mooningemini #saturnplutoconjunction #capricorn #lettinggo #timetogrowup #realitycheck #cropcircles #camping #myyoungface #cowboyhat #wheat #circlemaker #wiltshire #avebury #honeystreet #thebargeinn #westkennetlongbarrow #youngandbrave #stellium #stelliumastrology #astrology #lament #letgo (at The Barge Inn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8Kaff3pATB/?igshid=1wm1sgd5918gj

This picture from a year ago popped up on my newsfeed and it was a sweet reminder of God’s faithfulness and provision in our life. It’s us, as a family of three in front of our old house a year ago on Easter. We were about to list our house, had broken ground for our house build and were about to head on a vacation in Florida. Adelaide still looked like a sweet toddler, but was feisty and determined. I was pregnant and didn’t know it, nor plan it. I had just finished reading the book The Circle Maker by Mark Batterson and it was life changing book for me. Because of that, I went on my first fast ever to pray about very specific things in our life that were unclear at the time. A year later, I want to share how God has answered all of them.

In his book, he shared how fasting gives extra power to prayer and it honors God for us to ask for help in things that will bring him glory. It inspired me to try a Daniel fast, which is where your eat fruit, veggies, nuts.. things of the land and abstain from everything else and I did it for 5 days. May seem like lazy fasting, but it took a lot of willpower to do that! It was when we had given our active, climbing toddler a toddler bed too soon and she thought 5 am was an acceptable time to wake up everyday when I was extra tired from my unknown pregnancy.

I focused on these specific prayers below everyday, praying every chance I could, and my hunger was a reminder to rely on God and talk to him throughout my day.

1. Selling our house, over a certain amount with no hiccups with inspection, appraisal or buyer funding. We sold our house less than a week later for just a couple thousand shy of my number in mind, still over $60,000 more than what we had purchased it for two years prior. We had multiple offers, over ask in the first 24 hours. There were also no hiccups with the sale of our home. When we first decided to build, we had no way to foresee how the housing market would change for our favor 6 months later. Only God did.

2. That the timing of moving would work perfectly for when our home would be complete. This is a tricky one, because during the time it didn’t feel like perfect timing. But in hindsight it all worked out as it should. We had originally thought our home would be done being built in August. By the time we found out it would be more like November, which it was, we had already sold our house and moved into my mother’s basement. We originally thought that would just be a few weeks and turned into four months. However, during that time we were able to save enough to put 20% down on our house. Plus, Adelaide and my mom were able to grow a close bond. And even though the timing didn’t work out perfect, financially it did. And even more, God prepared my heart for it. I had forgotten that during my time of fasting I felt God told me to prepare myself for what would come in November. I had been praying that, not realizing it would be the news of the move. And even further provision is that just a year before that we had encouraged and helped my mom move closer to us, which she did. Instead of being 45 minutes away, she was 10, so the four months living with her were still in the same community we were used to living in and were building in.

3. That we would be able to save enough before the close of the new build to put 20% down. The short story is that we did. The longer story is that God greatly blessed Jake’s business during that time so we could. Especially since we didn’t know exactly how much we needed until the week of close, we needed a bit more due to an unfavorable appraisal and we had added some upgrades in the building process adding up to about $12,000 more. That was a lot of money to save in a short amount of time, but God provided. Mostly because we had more time with no bills than we had originally anticipated as well.

4. That we would have direction and favor in both Jake and I’s businesses. If you’ve read my other blogs, or know about my life right now, you’ll know how God answered this. He greatly blessed Jake’s and asked me to lay mine down. That was a process for me, but I can honestly say that I’m not only at peace with the decision now, but grateful and joyful in this new season of motherhood. I did not foresee how our life would change, but he did. Which brings me to my last point of prayer..

5. That God would give us wisdom in parenting our spirited toddler and the right timing for baby number two. Little did I know that I was actually pregnant while praying this and doing the fast. Which basically shows me how perfect God’s timing is always! And in all honesty, I was terrified of what life would be like as a mother of two. Adelaide was so active at that time, so determined, but lacked the ability to communicate fully. We had some challenging days to say the least. And today, she is so much more independent and verbal in that small amount of time that having two is easier than just her at 18 months old! As a first time parent, you don’t know how quickly a child develops and changes in a 6 month time period.

Little reminders for me, and hopefully you too, how God is in control. Little glimpses of his character. He cares about the details of our lives. We had felt his prompting for all of these things and trusted his provision for all of them. Does that mean we didn’t have times of doubt? No! There were so many details that had to work out and we had to continually turn to him and trust that he would work them out. And you know what? He did. He was faithful, he always is. I can look back now and see how he was working in the background on our behalf. I had to trust the first step without knowing the why or how. I stepped down from my career before knowing I was pregnant. We started building before having all the money secured (yes we were pre-approved). We started praying for wisdom in parenting before we knew we were expecting our second! I was praying for strength and peace in November, before I knew what was going to happen. He prepared me in advance for each step so I could be ready. He is the only one that is all knowing, though we so desperately want to be, so trust in his timing, power and control in your life. If you have a hard time relinquishing control, I have bad news for you friend, you aren’t and never were. You’re only setting yourself up for frustration and disappointment when you think you are. I know, I learned that lesson through years of frustration and disappointment. And I encourage you to list out some areas in your life of uncertainty and spend a dedicated amount of time praying for them. List them out, pray about it often and journal what you hear and see over time. You might be surprised how God honors your willingness, openness and faithfulness when you give things to him. And ultimately, his power will be shown in doing so. I dare you to give it a try.

Whisper

This book is like a sequel to the Circle Maker. Mark Batterson expands upon the topics he discussed in the Circle Maker, but the focus of this book is how to listen for God’s voice after praying the bold prayers. I enjoyed how he includes information he has learned from his studies of a variety of subjects to explain the points he creates in the book. I love how he incorates physics principles into how great God is and how we can be deaf to God’s replies. This books is like a breath of fresh air after reading some other books.

The Octahedron of Space

The Cube of Space diagram is based upon the Sepher Yetzirah, The Book of Formation. This oldest of Qabalistic texts contains no diagrams. It is usually assumed that the correspondences given there between the 22 Hebrew letters and the directions refer to a cube. However, they can equally be placed upon an octahedron. Here the placement of the 22 letters is shown with their corresponding Tarot keys. The positions on the cube are from the Sepher Yetzirah, short version (with one change by Paul Foster Case - the positions of lamed (Justice) and nun (Death) are reversed).

Note that the Hebrew alphabet contains seven "double" letters (each has two pronunciations), twelve "single" letters, and three "mother" letters. The cube has six faces plus the center = seven, twelve edges, and three axi through the center of the faces. Similarly, the octahedron has six vertexes (plus the center), twelve edges, and three axi. Indeed, in their geometry, both the cube and the octahedron are ideally suited to representing the three sets (3 mothers, 7 doubles, 12 singles) of Hebrew letters.

addendum:

June 4, 2007: “This exciting new crop circles formation, quite gigantic at over 250 feet in width, lends dramatic support to the idea that the Circlemakers are attempting to show us these “hyperdimensional geometries” at work. This is indeed the next step in an ongoing demonstration of the geometry of “hyperdimensional physics”…
