Dictionary of Symbols

This biuzarre looking symbol appeared one morning in 1991 on the lawns outside of England's Barbury Castle. The Barbury crop circle is not so much a circle as a triangle (or two dimensional rendering of a tetrahedron, as has been suggested) with three circular symbols at each point. This symbol, which measures some 36,000 feet across at its widest point, has never been seen before; neither the meaning or origin of this symbol are known.
