Ancient Aliens - The Crop Circle Code

Episode Date: November 13, 2025

More than 10,000 crop circle formations have been documented in over 50 countries, and many display properties that defy conventional explanations. Are they of otherworldly origin? And if so, what is their purpose? Could it be that reconnection with our alien ancestors will only come when we finally crack the crop circle code?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Incredible designs found in crop fields all across the world. You've got these magnificent works that span hundreds of feet. Their origins often defy explanation. Scientists have found evidence that microwave radiation was present when the crop circle was formed. Many believe that these formations are connected to visitations by other worldly beings. People have reported seeing lights above a field, and then within five minutes, there is a crop circle.

But if so, what is their purpose? Is it extraterrestrials trying to communicate with us, trying to show us certain cosmic truths that they want us to know? These are messages, and they're important. There is a doorway in the universe. Beyond it is the promise of truth. It demands we question everything we have ever been taught. The evidence is all around us.

The future is right before our eyes. We are not alone. We have never been alone. Winchester, England, April 24th, 2022. A mysterious formation emerges in a field of mustard. plants. The perfectly symmetrical design is a phenomenon known as a crop circle, and it is just one of many strange patterns that appear in the English countryside every year. Here is archaeologist Mark Olly. Crop circles are basically features, designs, illustrations of high complexity in crops. They tend to be complicated designs. unknown origin. This is Richard Taylor, head of physics at University of Oregon.

In terms of the patterns themselves, they've been undergoing this amazing sort of ramp-up in sophistication. You can find these huge what they call pictographs that span hundreds of feet across a whole field and feature multiple components and they're arranged with mathematical precision. William Henry is an author and investigative mythologist. Crop circles appear in more than 50 countries and there literally have been thousands of them, maybe over 10,000 crop circles that we're aware of in the modern era. Today, thousands of people visit these formations, including researchers who take measurements of the patterns, collect stocks and soil samples, and record aerial images for further study. Documentation

of these mysterious impressions may also include eyewitness accounts of strange lights and objects seen around the same time a crop circle appears. Such accounts have been widely reported since the mid-1960s. Here is author and euphologist Bill Burns, Ph.D. The first modern example of the discovery of a crop circle actually being made was by George Pedley in 1966 in Australia. What George Padley saw was an object rising out of a lagoon, and then the object, he couldn't tell how they did it, the object actually made a pattern in the foliage in the lagoon,

a geometric pattern from that object. He finds a circular area where the grass in the swamp, where the reeds are matted down. This is reported in the Australian press, and they start labeling these UFO nests or flying saucer nests. While crop circles have been documented for more than 60 years, there is evidence that these mysterious formations have been appearing in farmers' fields for centuries.

Hartfordshire, England, 1678. A woodcut pamphlet called The Mowing Devil is published that portrays a devilish figure, creating a circle in a field of oats. This is Andrew Collins, author of The New Circle Makers, Insights into the Crop Circle Mystery. It refers to a supposedly true story of a farmer that saw these mysterious lights in a field,

and the next morning, when he went out there, he found these circular depressions in his land, you know, actually within the crop. The stalks weren't broken, but they were folded over, and people even started to blame the devil what was called the mowing devil. While the mowing devil woodcut attributed the mysterious crop formation to an evil entity, 200 years later, English scientist John Capron applied a scientific analysis to what he witnessed in 1880. When he proposed that a cyclonic wind of unknown origin created a scientific wind, created perfectly circular patches of flattened crops.

Copran might be the first person to connect crop circles to what we today call UAPs or UFOs, because he's describing some kind of a whirlwind that is coming out of the sky and is having this effect on the ground as creating what we call a crop circle. Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that these incidents, along with modern crop circle accounts, provide evidence that these strange formations may be connected to visitations by otherworldly beings. The eyewitnesses who have reported seeing crop circles manifest have described some extraordinary phenomena. They describe tubes of light, swirling beams of light. Very famously, back in the 1990s, there was balls of light flying across a field that were actually seen to lay the crops flat and within a space of a space of a light.

and within a space of only a couple of minutes, they were filmed naturally producing one of those designs. Many researchers suggest there are now enough reports of unusual activity around crop circles to disprove a highly publicized claim, made over 30 years ago that all such formations are man-made. Nick Pope is a former member of the UK Ministry of Defense. The Ministry of Defense in the UK started looking at the

Crop Circle Mystery in the late 80s and the early 90s. And in 1991, two men came forward and said that they had been responsible for the entire Crop Circle phenomenon. Doug Bauer and Dave Chorley said, we fooled the world. We've been making these things for years. For much of the general public, Doug and Dave's claim of creating the mysterious giant patterns reinforced the belief that crop circles were a hoax. Yet the frequent appearance of crop circles around the world and the geometric detail found in many patterns

left researchers with numerous questions about how two men could possibly be responsible for the global phenomenon. Doug and Dave said we have created all of these formations just using planks of wood and lengths of rope. But there are thousands and thousands of crop formations. And it cannot possibly be that two men made them all. Here is EarthFiles investigative journalist Linda Mulden Howe. They were in what I consider to be the counterintelligence units that were trying to make everybody go away and not take crop formations seriously. In their own omission, which they said,

we made the formations in Hampshire, and we made the formations in Wiltshire. Well, there had been formations in many parts of England, let alone 22 other countries. And on their demonstration of how they made their formation, they were off kilter. And for those of us who have been in real crop formations, there's just no comparison. Let's say that you're tired. And you make one step into that crop formation. And it is if you've entered into a completely different space, energy, frequency. Here is ancient astronaut theorist, Georgiosucalos.

The way you can tell that it's a man-made circle is as you use the boards to push everything down, not only are the stalks sometimes broken, but they're incomplete. this array in one that's not man-made. You can see that the stalks are sometimes braided and intertwined with each other. So many formations had braids and no creases. Try as a human to do that with wheat. Here is Monique Kinkinberg, founder of the Crop Circle

Information and Research Center. We have 300 plus, I would have of seeing an authentic crop circle form. And they have one thing in common. They see the flattening of the crop happening in a matter of minutes or even seconds by this mysterious force of source. Sometimes there are light phenomenon

and sometimes strange sounds, but it happens in just a very short time span. Sometimes there is a mist hanging above the field. The mist is gone and there is deformation. So the question then arises, how was that done and who did it? Do these eyewitness accounts offer compelling evidence that extraterrestrials could be responsible for the crop circle phenomenon? If so, what is their purpose? Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that the answers may be encoded within the crop circles themselves.

and might have critical implications for mankind. Wiltshire, England, May 19th, 1999. U.S. billionaire and philanthropist Lawrence Rockefeller establishes a grant to assist with one of the largest studies of crop circles in history. The donation reflects the growing interest in the scientific study of how And why crop circles are created.

There was a scientist by the name of W.C. Leavengood, who did some very, very interesting work at various sites in southern England, where crop circles appear in the 1990s. And he found some very strange things were going on. For instance, he found that some of the stalks were blowing out, which he felt was only replicable by microwave radiation.

Leavengood also found traces of other forms of radiation. And he even found that some of the call would yield much better growth if it was actually taken from a crop circle formation. Dr. Levingood, he noticed that inside the crop circle, the growth rate was fired. times as fast than what's going on outside of that crop circle. And when he investigated this, he actually came up with a technique called molecular impulse response. From this study, he was able to do a bit of reverse engineering and he created electrical pulse technology that is actually used to accelerate plant growth.

Scientists were astounded that the radiation research of crop circles led to new innovations in plant growth. Radiation was also believed to be the source of so-called ghost formations, where the stark impressions of a crop circle appears long after the field has been cleared. There's photographic evidence of many examples where people have turned up after the farmer has harvested the crop and they can still see elements of the design persisting. Several people have come forward to claim that they actually witnessed mysterious lights, UFOs, UAPs in the vicinity of a particular field, and then the next day, crop circles are actually

found. So what is the relationship between these mysterious globes of light and ghost formations revealing this negative of the crop formation that had been there the previous year? For ancient astronaut theorists, the appearance of aerial phenomena, along with the emergence of ghostly pre-existing patterns, supports the theory that some crop circles are not man-made, but instead could be an extraterrestrial creation. And they point to specific features in certain formations that may explain their purpose. Manchester, England, August 15, 2002.

A crop circle bearing the image of a strange figure emerges in a wheat field. At its base is a disk-shaped object containing what some believe to be binary code, a computer language consisting of ones and zeros. It wasn't one of these breathtaking geometries, but it was highly mysterious. And here is what happened. In 2002 comes this enormous image of what you would have to call the typical world's interpretation of a gray alien being now holding a disc. It's binary code that had to be translated. The binary code depicted in the crop formation was translated as,

Beware the bearers of false gifts and their broken promises. Much pain, but still time. There is good out there. We oppose deception. Conduit closing. There is much happening here that is profound, is important, and we better pay attention. Because it means that there is something that is non-human

that is trying to convince us that this was the genuine intelligence behind the crop formations, and that it was depicting itself. as a gray and transmitting a binary code. Could the binary code depicted in this crop formation contain an otherworldly message sent to assist humankind? Perhaps clues can be found in another remarkable crop circle, one that appears to be responding to a message from Earth. Aricebo Observatory, Puerto Rico, November 16th, 1974. Astronomers at SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence,

aimed the world's largest radio telescope at a cluster of stars, 25,000 light years from Earth, and transmit a message. It contains binary encoded information, including the numbers 1 through 10, an image of human DNA, a human figure, and a graphic of the solar system, highlighting the position of Earth, Remarkably, almost 26 years after the Aricebo transmission, a crop circled nearly identical

to the SETI binary message, appears in a field in Hampshire County, England. The formation that appeared next to the Chill Bolton Radio Observatory in 2001 echoed the message sent by SETI, but it seemed to show a different system of planets, suggesting that it's a different solar system. The DNA was not double helix, and instead of a human, we see a humanoid being with a larger head and a smaller body. This was clearly a message and perhaps even a response to the message transmitted by SETI. Could the crop circle that appeared in Hampshire, England, have been an extraterrestrial response to SETI's Aricebo message?

Ancient astronaut theorists say, yes, and suggest the formation that appeared in both Hampshire and Winchester, England, might also provide clues about how to communicate with alien beings. If these two formations were made by extraterrestrials, one possible interpretation is they were telling us we were on the right track with the message beamed from Arecibo in 1974, that binary code and mathematics more generally is the language of the cosmos, and that's how to communicate with them.

Researchers suggest that while the formations that included binary code appeared to be attempts by otherworldly beings to communicate with humans, other crop circles contain much more complex messages and instructions. And they believe that further clues can be found by examining a curious formation in Wilcher England that contains a depiction of a wormhole.

A crop formation featuring two connected spirals appears on a prehistoric earthwork known as Windmill Hill. The same day, another formation, with a circular design, appears 20 miles directly to the south, at the ancient megalithic site of Stonehenge. Intrigued by the appearance of two crop circles on the south, same day and in the same area at two historic sites.

Researcher Jerry Croft studies them to see if any other similarities are apparent. So I see these two formations. They occur on the same day and I said, how far are they? 20 miles apart. I said, well, maybe put those things together and I said, oh my God, there's a 3D element here. If you look at a neutron star, it looks. looks like the crop circle with magnetic fields as those swirling things and the stars in the metal. So I thought maybe that's a neutron star. Do you know how wine a neutron star is? 38 miles.

Like how could a star be 38 miles in diameter? Because it's so dense. And neutron stars sometimes collide. They collide and sometimes when they collide they make a magnetar, which is a star that's 18 miles wide. So those two circles come together and make this little tiny dot. And I said, is this talking about a neutron star collision and a magnetar being born? A magnetar produces a magnetic field that is 100 million times stronger than any man-made magnet and causes distortions in both space and time. Because of this effect, some scientists believe the study of magnetars could help us to develop

craft that can bend space-time and travel faster than the speed of light. But could this have been what was depicted by separate crop circles that appeared on the same day in Wiltshire, England? There are only around 10 magnetars in the Milky Way. They're extremely rare, the most magnetic objects in the universe. So I thought, well, nice theory, Jerry, no way to prove it. Could the spiral crop circles represent the creation of a magnetar? Within 24 hours of the mysterious patterns discovery, Jerry Croft's theory would be played out in

a real-time astronomical event. July 14th, an astronomer in Madrid and an astronomer in Sicily say, a magnetar has just a Now, when they appear, they shoot pulses at like 700 revolutions a minute, really, really fast. And I wrote to them, could anyone have seen it July 13th? They said, no. So a magnetar appears on July 14th, and they're studied by every astronomer in the world, and they're going nuts about it, and they're seeing these spectral lines and pulses, and it goes on for six months. But on July 13th, there are two crop circles doing this 24 hours before.

And that's when I was convinced this was a magnetar. Is it possible that extraterrestrials created the two crop circles in Wiltshire to forecast the imminent appearance of a magnetar? And if so, what could the purpose be? Perhaps further clues can be found by examining another crop circle formation that many believe represents one of Albert Einstein's theories. On the 26th of July 2022, a remarkable crop formation appeared in Torsmead COPS, and this consisted of three overlapping series of concentric circles. Some researchers have interpreted this as a two-dimensional form of a Einstein-Rosen bridge.

In 1935, physicist Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen theorized that with enough energy, space could be bent in order to connect two separate points through what they called an Einstein-Rosen bridge. This connection, it is believed, could make it possible to quickly travel to even the most remote stars in the universe. When molecular biologist and crop circle researcher Dr. Horace Drew saw the Tosmeet Copps crop circle in 2022, he remarked that the design clearly shows the image of a spacetime wormhole.

It seems very apparent that crop circles are messages, they're coded messages for us. When we look at that crop circle, what Dr. Horace Drew proposed is that it has what appears to be a two-year-old. or a portal that links the vortices points and also the bending of space time. This is David Shildress, author of Technology of the Gods. If you look at a theoretical model of an Einstein Rosenbridge, what is commonly called a wormhole, you see this formation and how it looks. You have to wonder, are the extraterrestrials telling us how they got here?

God here? Is it possible that astronomical events and geometric patterns displayed in crop circles could be pointing humankind towards future technologies? Ancient astronaut theorists say yes and suggest some formations may be telling us how to communicate with extraterrestrials. Yarnbury Castle, Wiltshire, England, July 26, 2020. An intricate formation of concentric circles, featuring a number of smaller semi-circles, appears in a field of wheat. While the design may appear random, some researchers believe it contains a message that can be both seen and heard,

because it is a perfect match for what is known as a cymatic pattern. Here is Glenn Kreisberg, author of Mysteries of the Mysteries of the Eighty. ancient past. When we talk about somatic patterns, we're talking about a frequency that will create a image that has a complexity to it. So specific frequencies relate to specific patterns. The origins of cymatics among human civilizations can be traced back more than 10 centuries to West Africa. There, tribal rituals involve sprinkling grains of sand on the surface of drums. Striking the drums created specific audio tones, causing the sand to be instantly shaped into distinct formations.

From the resulting formations on the drum's surface, tribal elders believed it was possible to predict future events. With cymatics, you have these patterns that are visualization really of sound and vibration. And physicists tell us that the entire universe comes down to vibration and sound patterns and these patterns that can be visualized. In 1787, German physicist and musician Ernst Klaudey offered a breakthrough on the subject when he published discoveries in the theories of sound. In the writing, Klaughty revealed that specific tones consistently create the same visual patterns. pattern. By applying sound vibrations to metal plates covered in sand, he identified the images

produced by various frequencies. When we look at so many crop circles, they're consistent with what we see in research on cymatics. We find the same shapes that are created on clodny plates. We find the same shapes that are created in sound experiments. So there's a very key connection that is to be made here. Quite a few crop circles are very similar to these cymatic patterns, again demonstrating that there's a deep geometric harmony at play, something that appeals directly to us. But why would cymatic patterns appear in crop circles? Could extraterrestrials be using audio frequencies as a method of communication?

Ancient astronaut theorists suggest further clues can be found found by examining the teachings found in ancient Hindu religious texts known as Vedas. Dominic Steiavoo, Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. The word Vedah means knowledge in Sanskrit. There is this close association with a special type of wisdom or knowledge that is transmitted through the Vedas. Now, originally the Vedas were revealed by the gods to a certain class of spiritual elect, and they contain, again, these primordial sounds that are associated with the creation of the universe and its proper functioning. In the Vedic texts, it is said that the gods gave humankind a visual guide to sacred sounds

in the form of elaborate patterns called mandolas. Like Claudini's experiments, the mandala, Mandalayas translate sound into visual patterns, but for a profound and otherworldly purpose. In Hinduism, mandalayas are considered to be visual translations of primordial sounds. And these are the sounds that gave rise to the universe and to the very nature of reality. They are divine. They were uttered cosmically by supernatural. beings by gods. The Vedas tell us that the gods taught humans how to chant,

how to pray and to sing in order to communicate with the gods. The most powerful Hindu mantra is the sound, Aom, which is visually represented by a simple circle with a dot in the middle, the fundamental element of a mandala. Incredibly, when the A'am frequency is applied to a clodney plate, the exact same pattern emerges. Higher tone frequencies result in more complex arrangements that also identically match the ancient mandala symbols.

Is it conceivable that the writers of the ancient Vedic texts were given advanced knowledge on how sound frequencies can be converted into visual patterns? Some of the crop circle designs are very clearly reflections of sound. Is it therefore possible that what we are looking at is sound signatures and that this is telling us in some while that sound is an important means of communication with such higher intelligences? Many cultures around the world believe it is possible to commune with a higher realm through ritualistic chanting, singing, and prayer.

Like mandala's, could crop circles contain an otherworldly message for humanity, one that is based on sacred sounds? I certainly think that crop circles are messages by other beings who are trying to make contact with us, or at least letting us know, they're there. And the entire basis of the universe is vibration, and sound is vibration. When we talk about different ways

with which to communicate with different civilizations, scientists have proposed that can be achieved with sound frequencies. What they're doing is putting sound and vibration into the communication device of some sort. But exactly what they're trying to communicate. to us is the big question. Might extraterrestrials be trying to communicate with humans

through the visual representation of certain sound frequencies? And could these images have a subconscious effect on those who witness them? Ancient astronaut theorists say, yes, and speculate that humans could already be in the process of responding to these otherworldly signals, without even knowing it. When Doug Bauer and Dave Chorley came forward in 1991 to admit that they had been making crop circles throughout England,

they were labeled as hoaxers. But today, creating designs in crops has become an art form practiced by people all over the world. This is crop circle maker, William Russell. Being an artist, this seemed to sort of resonate that you could go out and you could make an artwork in a field. Anonymously, I spend all night making one of these things, and then in the morning it appears on the internet,

and from that it sort of gathers power. But while artists have become increasingly proficient at making crop circles, many of them say they still see formations that defy explanation and believe they are carrying on the work started by extraterrestrial beings. With some of these man-made crop circles, the perpetrators will say that they were inspired

to create these crop circles, and they think that extraterrestrials are somehow contacting them and influencing them to go out and create these. John Lundberg is a crop circle maker. I've been making circles for over two decades, mainly in and around wheelchair, but I'm not a skeptic. We've had some pretty interesting experiences

when we've been out making circles that are inexplicable. You have experiences which would lead you to think that you're being shown things such as flashes of light or more extraordinary events in the night sky. The strangest one, we were leaving a field and there was a great big white burst of light, enough to light the whole area we were in up for maybe a second. And exactly where I was looking, a big orange ball of light emanated from nothing to a circular formation and then blinked out. There's a rich tradition with circle makers of us seeing strange lights.

This is crop circle maker Rob Irving. What I will say up is that the first person I personally, I personally know who made one, Doug Bauer, made it on the back of an existing phenomenon. So the circles existed long before human circle making. Some circle makers not only report being compelled to create crop formations, but also claimed to experience other mental anomalies. Monique Clinkinberg of the Crop Circle Information and Research Center has been personally experienced what are known as time slips.

We have people losing track of time. It also happened to me once. It's very strange, and you're just blown away. I was in a car driving towards an appointment regarding crop circles. And I remember thinking, oh my God, I'm too late. I'm not going to make it in time. The next thing I knew, I was on this parking lot. and I was very much in time.

There is a theory that something out there is interacting with our thoughts. So basically you can request or wish for information to happen. And we did experiments with it, and we have many, many reports of people thinking or discussing a certain thing, and then it was manifested in the field. Similar to cymatic experiences of ancient tribes in Africa and the mandalayas of Hinduism, is it possible that other worldly beings are communicating with and influencing humankind through the creation of crop circles?

This is Hugh Newman, co-author of Megalith Studies in Stone. I've heard reports from some of the circle makers that they've created a whole crop circle, They've gone back to check it out the next day and extra elements have even been added to it that none of them did. And so you have this strange kind of connection, like a human connection, between the mysterious forces

that may have made the original ones and the humans who are making them today. Could there be a connection between circle makers and an extraterrestrial force? And is there direct communication on a subconscious level that is guiding the designs and execution of these elaborate formations. One of the things was the makers would have visionary experiences

like when they were going out in the fields and they would change their plans in the moment. And sometimes they would even turn up at a crop circle location where they planned to make one and something had already been created there before they got there. Are the crop circle makers the people who create many of the formation, Are they themselves inspired to create what they do? I think the answer is yes.

Could it be that the most shocking revelation regarding Crop Circle phenomenon is that even formations known to be man-made contain an extraterrestrial message? Ancient astronaut theorists say, yes, and point to recent disclosures involving UFOs and the US government. U.S. government, Warwickshire, England, July 2011.

Near an old British Royal Air Force Base in the small hamlet of Temple Ballsall. An intricate crop circle appears, featuring an eight and sixteen pointed star around a central sun, alongside pyramids and oval-shaped helmets. Curiously, as researchers attempt to investigate the formation, they are are prevented from doing so by authorities, leading many to question why. A lot of people can't help but wonder whether the government and the ministry were as curious as everyone else. There has been some British government interest and activity on this. Questions were formally asked in the British Parliament about this.

What I do know for a fact that I've once been contacted by someone who said he, He was from the MI6 and he wanted to speak to me. But I had to come on my own and it had to be under the Chatham House rule. That's meaning you have to keep all the information inside. And that's the opposite of what I want. I wanted transparency. So I declined. But it makes you think why should the government want to talk to me about crop circles?

I just don't know. Many of the crop circles in England are happening near the Salisbury Plains. which is a big military area. So that is curious in itself. The high concentration of crop circles is very close to a military base. It's very conceivable that in fact it's the British government that is involved in making the man-made crop circles

as a way to return the messages that are coming from the stars. For more than 60 years, crop circles have made headlines around the world. And during that time, the United States, England, and other governments have either ignored it or dismissed crop circles as nothing more than elaborate hoaxes. But like with the U.S. governments leaked investigation into UAP activity in 2017, could a similar disclosure concerning crop circles be on the horizon?

With crop circles, there has been always this indication of UFO or UAP activity. People are seeing lights, they're seeing perhaps flying saucers and other things flying around in this area, and perhaps with disclosure, will eventually be told and we'll find an answer of why all these crop circles are occurring. What I think we're seeing in the crop circles is a calling card. It's a message from a higher intelligence that's asking us to crack the code,

And as we crack the code, we're going to undoubtedly develop new technologies and new abilities to communicate, not just between ourselves, but also with these higher intelligences. Is it possible that many of the crop circles found around the world contain important messages left by extraterrestrial visitors? Are they attempting to communicate critical warnings about the future, profound truths about the cosmos and the keys to incredible new technologies. Perhaps as more formations are deciphered, we will continue to move closer to a reconnection

with our alien ancestors. Pay off your home, travel for life, drive a Ferrari.
