Has anyone seen this symbol before?

Hephaestus · October 05, 2003, 16:19:28

I think you're seeing symbols that arnt there, they're simply chaotic shapes brought about by gaps between trees.

wizzle · October 05, 2003, 16:26:25

Over and over and over again? Everywhere i look i see this form? A more realistic reply would of been it was my high subconcious making it seem like their everywhere. But i kept on seeing them, i tried lookin for them later on but could never see any more of them.

Hi Wizzle,
I went to have a look at the symbol, using the link you provided and it said the page was not available. Could you post it in here?

Spirit gives things to us in ways that it is hoped we will see, and maybe even understand. So I would not worry what other people say about your seeing this sign. You saw it, it was meant for you, that much is obvious.

Love Always.[

wizzle · October 05, 2003, 22:10:16

Sorry guys [V], i didn't notice it didn't work and i didn't know you could put the imagine on a post[

]

I hope that works!

But if whatever force wanted me to see these signs, how would i found out the reason? It seems all very confusing for i can't thing of anything that resembles this symbol.

Nagual · October 06, 2003, 01:23:20

Hum... just a thought: this looks a lot like the "after image" I get on my eyes when I pressure them and then look through my closed eyes... I used to play with this "image" to practice my concentration, as it tends to fade...

wizzle · October 06, 2003, 02:00:32

Wow really? That's awesome, now i know that this symbol wasn't just an illusion of my ripped mind

. I think the weed made me more aware of these symbols and effected me in a more "spiritual" way, but i still wonder what this sign meens...

beavis · October 06, 2003, 10:05:57

The symbol isnt complex enough to be unlikely to appear at random many times. I think its possible but unlikely that this symbol was intentionally shown to you.

Nagual · October 06, 2003, 10:47:08

As I said in my previous post, it came after playing with my eyes... So, my interpretation of the slowly fading shape (more or less full circle with a smaller circle removed at the center) I saw is that my retina receptors would get "activated" by the pressure and would see the reflection image of my eyes... After image effect...

Looks like this theory: http://home.earthlink.net/~toddwolly/vision/afterimages.html

wizzle · October 06, 2003, 10:56:36

Yea it wasn't too complex, but i kept seeing it. EVERYWHERE!! Most of them were obvious that they were really like the symbol, and it started to freak me out haha. I couldn't look at ANY tree without seeing it. But yea it wasn't complex so i don't know. My friends couldn't see them though, even though i drew it out for them. I pointed it out very clearly, they didn't see it. But then again they were stoned also.

Nay · October 06, 2003, 11:05:29

I think if you feel there is something to them, then go with your gut feeling. I doubt anyone here can help ya tho.. this might be something for you and you alone to figure out. I am finding this out more as time goes on, it is hard to interpret for another because everyone is different. I wish you luck on that!

Just a thought. You could be putting too much behind the image. The fact that you are seeing it everywhere now could only be because in some way you are looking for it.

It's is kinda the same effect as when you or some one you know gets a new car. Suddenly you start seeing that car all over the place. It is not so much that there are any more or less of them ou just notice them more because you equate the item to the one you or you friend now has.

It is possible that you are experiencing this kind of behavior because you placed some meaning on what you saw.

Then on the other handif you believe that it does have some kind of meaning them maybe you could try looking into some books on symbols. Look into religious or magical symbols of various culture. You could also try looking up various sets of runes to find a match.

wizzle · October 07, 2003, 01:21:23

Ok, i just remembered alot more from that one day!!!! The first thing i saw in the trees was a Giraffe, it was an EXTREMELY detailed Giraffe, when i saw it i almost fell because it was in such detail, it was amazing. After showing my friends and looking at it in amazement. I would say "i keep seeing Giraffes"! After a while, my amazement went from seeing the incredibly detailed Giraffe to seeing that rough (VERY rough, as you see from my symbol i drew) outline of a Giraffe everywhere i looked. Now it seems MUCH more clear than before, now that i know the symbol has something to do with a Giraffe i might get closer to why i saw it [

].

Or as some of you say, it was just a coincidence.

wizzle · October 07, 2003, 01:31:20

You guys are probably wonder how the hell i got a Giraffe from that symbol!! Well, the Giraffe didn't have much of a long neck. It was more like a horse, i only saw it's lower body about have way or so, you can see that in the picture of the symbol. But the head of the Giraffe was in such detail, it had the little horn/ear/bump things and everything!!! It kind of looked like it was a skeleton of the Giraffe though.

So to sum it up, i saw the Giraffe, and after that it was a "chain reaction" of seeing the outline of it everywhere i could possibly look.

To me it looks like a "rubber ducky"...

Weel this might have to do with the psychology of forms, in that sens that our mind has the ability to make us see things where they are not, but it is very good when one wants to check our imagination and productivity... As for example to see all kind of weird animals, faces in the clouds...Even, there are some forms that have been there for thousands of years and have now been accepted to be what they are: the constellations in the night sky! The Lion, the head of Taurus (the bull), Orion, Scorpion, ... these are only a few of the best known examples that really looks the way they are called. For an unexperienced eye it is not straightforward, but for someone who gazes at the night sky from time to time, they are very familiar freidnly features of the sky...

So, I guess, you probably have a good imagination, and are very good at the "psychology of forms" (some of these are use in psychometric tests!).

"what's the function of a rubber ducky?" question asked to Harry Potter by Mr. Weasley in Harry Potter II. No answer was given...

Syke · October 07, 2003, 11:27:59

my suggestion (and dont take offence to it), lay off the weed a bit... sounds like its having an effect on ya.

Logic · October 07, 2003, 20:40:35

Syke, what exactly are you trying to prove by saying this? It sounds like another typical stereotype towards people who use certain substances for whatever reasons they may be. Stop trying to single people out.

'weed' does not cause long or short term effects, such as brain damage, or any damage besidse that of a cough, so I'm not exactly sure where your coming from on this.

wizzle · October 07, 2003, 20:50:51

Syke, the weed didn't make me go insane or anything.. It just opened my mind up and either made me notice these signs, or made it easier for people from higher frequencies to send me signs. And just as Logic said, weed is not bad for your brain, why would i wanna lay off of it?

wizzle · October 07, 2003, 20:52:27

If you don't know what your talking about (wich you obviously don't), don't make statements like that.

wizzle · October 07, 2003, 20:55:59

I didn't meen to make it sound like i'm mad or being a jerk, i think i kind of made it look like that though.

Nagual · October 08, 2003, 04:26:02

You seem convinced that these symbols are signs... can you tell us why?

Syke · October 08, 2003, 08:47:58

sounds to me that you Logic and you Wizzle dont know what YOURE talkin about...

weed can definatly have an effect you, it brings on a number of things such as paranoia; short and long term, schitzophrenia among others. and i know this for a fact with ppl i know and my mother knows who are now still suffering and still addicted 20-30 years down the track.

for example this one guy wont let ANYONE beside my mum in his house becuase he is so paranoid and the only time he goes out is to meet someone to buy more weed... and this guys 50 years old.. started smokin it in his early teens.

my mum only smoked it lightly for a couple of years and then stopped because she saw the effect it was having on her friends and herself.

so dont give me this bovine excrement that weed doesnt have side effects, it does... look it up.. try to go out and meet ppl that have the side effects, and youll soon smarten up.

shaman · October 08, 2003, 09:52:04

As a big green shaman I can testify that weed is good in two ways: as insens and in salads!

The most common weeds in your garden: dandelions and common plantains can both be used (use the leaves and flowers) in salads. Even in Turkey one uses them slightly boiled for 5 minutes with olive oil and some youghourt. Delicious and healthy. So don't cut the weed in your garden, grow it and eat it!

Insens will help you to relax, some are very aromatic, a common one is the benzoin (styrax) usually mixed with other things such as oregano of Crete, etc...

You have no idea how weed in your garden can be so good for you: some can be used in teas, other in salads, other as remedies, other to apply directly on the skin (against insect bites, but also some are good against snake bites, bleeding, inflamation...).

YOu know the famous Mandrakes (see H. Potter for example) are really dangerous plants, that can induce hallucination if you eat them, inhale them or just even touch them. These kind of plants are forbiden in many countries because of that. Fortunatley most of the weed in your garden are not poisonous.

wizzle · October 08, 2003, 19:01:39

Ok, i don't know who these people are but they must have some kind of problems to be this obsessed over weed.. It's NOT an addictive drug, it's only mentally addiction; but if mental addiction is bad i guess you should stay away from your favorite pop, and don't eat candy or anything else that you like, because those are all mentally addictive. The only people i have ever met that are screwed up that is anything close to this, they do speed and other stupid excrement. You obviously have no idea what your talking about. The people you mentioned have some obsession problems, not addiction

That was to Syke by the way, not shaman [
