Zeals Knoll: What is it about foam and
bubbles?
Some see a star chart, possibly
referencing the Pleiades open star cluster (M45). Well, maybe; but
this crop circle specimen is not particularly evocative of the
Pleiades to me — a bucket of foam or a boiling pot, perhaps, but not
the legendary star cluster. Furthermore, where is the hint or clue
that beckons one to look out toward Taurus? Sorry, I don't see it.
Others search for the 'crop
circle's' hidden center, which is implied rather than depicted;
revealed, if at all, only by a construction making use of sacred
geometry. This intuitive, esoteric approach to problem-solving is
appealing to persons, like me, who are drawn to the quest for the
Philosopher's Stone. But, whereas, sacred geometry often leaps out
once a construction is overlaid revealing relationships that are
otherwise hidden or implied, here the overlay is somewhat strained;
it's certainly not persuasive.
So, what are we looking at? At the
risk of repeating myself, and stating the obvious, this specimen is
evocative of a pot of foam or bubbles; something that "bubbles up",
in other words. Can anyone seriously disagree? And the place name —
Zeals Knoll — suggests the circle-makers may well have had this idea
in mind; and thus, furnishes a useful hint or clue for evaluating
observations?
Well, alright, what, if anything,
can be said about things that zealously foam or bubble up? Bubbles
and foam are certainly produced when air is beaten into a liquid,
such as milk, a life-affirming connection aptly made by Johann v.
Diehsa, MSD, in his commentary. Too, a life-affirming connection may
well be drawn to the foam or bubbles which arise in shallow ponds,
generated by unseen aquatic life, below. But are not sea waves more
zealous? And certainly, life abounds in the sea!
Though I'm drawn to such
life-affirming observations, I cannot escape the tug of physics —
particularly, Quantum Mechanics — to explain the world around us.
Physics teaches that a liquid, such as water, undergoes a phase-change when
it transforms from liquid to gas in the presence of heat — think boiling
water. Are the circle-makers, perhaps,
calling attention to some kind of impending phase-change, something
involving heat? ("Yes," the esoteric implications are intended.)
One might be tempted to say, "the
solution can't be simultaneously life-affirming and phase-changing
in the same moment; it's either/or." But such a remark, relying as
it does upon conventional wisdom, would be incorrect as Quantum
Mechanics disconcertingly reminds us for reality
is unveiled only upon superposition collapse (Schrödinger's
Cat); and a thing which is bubbling up — undergoing a phase-change —
is neither one nor the other; it's a process, vice outcome, in other
words. Is this what the circle-makers commend to further study? Are
we denizens of earth now undergoing, or about to undergo, some sort
of phase-change . . . and how will we know it . . . by its foaming,
bubbling zeal?
Hmmm, I wonder . . . .
