ok so if you dont know me, i was given permission in Aquatic Park to poke the grounds. so i did, for 4 hours i poked from Hyde street pier to the scout school, all along the beach, in front of each light post, along the steps in the sand, all the grassy area to the west of the maritime museum, i could not poke the grass and other areas by the street due to an event covering these places. with that said, i did locate a box shape in the ground that meets MY solve to a tee. the problem is NPS allowed me to locate but they will not allow the removal of said BOX in ground, but i can say this,, it fits the descriptions given lately of the true size of the plexiglass and depth.. i have hundereds of pics from all over San Fran and once i learn this site, i will be more than happy to share..

i really liked what we did with Mira Chimera and I still think there is more in there as well as other drawings. I have not looked at image 1 for quite awhile.
I am in central valley so if you get a dig permit and want company, give me a shout.

squirell, here is who i am and my motives.... Jenny posted a topic on Oak Island and Nicolas Poussin, and the secrets he hid in his art about a great treasure associated with Rennes le Chateau and the Priory of Scion. So, what the heck, i will apply my "Secret" techniques to the Shepherds of Arcadia. Holy crap, I am seeing "stuff. Numbers, letters, latin abbreviations, punctuation, like a colon and umlaut. bible passages? Obscuring features in the scene like leaves and branches provide glimpses of whats behind them. Then i found a profile in the negative space indicated by the arrow. pardon the other circled clues. looking closely, profile is black, facing to the right. arrow is at top of forehead. the curves of the face to the chin, coming back to a very deliberate straight down neck. The breast then angles down and away from the neck. arm at her side and hand is just below the breast. Mary Magdalene? the line continues into a blocky shape that I am working on. some sort of religious medallion. on the awning of an altar? sorry, dont know what to call it. agnostic. Then look to the left at the grey guy in the circle. very deliberate shape, with vestments including a train? A pointy hat priest, pope? templar? that aint all as i hope you can see or at least suspect. If I am right, I totally stumbled onto something that has been hidden for 350+ years. I dont know why I can see this stuff, i just can. this is the best i can do to help you see what i do. I am seeing mapping of some kind but just cant get that visible yet. btw, i have spot checked about 40 of his works so far and most have "clues" or "disturbances" as i call them. Poussin really liked to obscure with branches, leaves and bushes. maybe that was deliberate too, so the worthy would know where to look. I think a glass lens with the right correction and tint would reveal the secret. Something you have and something you know. I plan on testing that with a monocular as soon as i can get to the Getty in LA. Both of their Poussin originals are leafy and bushy. attached another example. why did i post this? character and transparency. I am part of a wonderful team of contributors and enthusiasts on this forum. I am sharing all that I know because i have not gotten here alone, but rather with the positive collaboration and witty criticism from choice, canuck, goldhunter and others. And I know I can only take this so far, and I am about there. A man's gotta know his limitations. I have reached out to other experts on the topic as I am too old to learn that much. 🤫 Perhaps I am crazy and suffering severe pareidolia. latin pareidolia? But what if I am right? Another credit to Byron and his team for their creations and influence. i wonder who i will get onboard first, the Louvre, the Getty, or THE choice. onward. so much fun. my photoshop skills apparently have peaked as well!

Speaking of Mira Chimera, is this a suggestion to mirror image 1? What is the highlighted sentence referring to? Bright light? Really, someone should go checkout the spot behind the lighthouse! I don't think that area is part of NPS system so you can at least probe without getting shot! So many image matches to the lighthouse i.e. the open circle symbol, ball on top, verdigris patina on top, hex/oct glass cage like the halo around the pearl, stone work pattern, and stone door.

Welcome Linda! It’s good to have you onboard, really enjoy your ideas on the San Francisco casque. I’ve looked around at different areas of the city, but based on the clues the group has found and the discussion that has been generated really like the Aquatic Park general area. The speaker towers, the bocce ball court, Balclutha, Alcatraz, cable car turntable,Angel Island,Golden Gate Bridge,etc...it all seems to fit! It’s been a lot of fun working with the group here and bouncing ideas back and forth.
I enjoy working on all the puzzles of The Secret and have a few good theories on a few of them. I find keeping an open mind and using methods available in the early 80s certainly helps. I still feel that for each verse and image there is a fair folk match ( in some cases more than 1) that can aid in solving the puzzles. Alibi Elf, Mira Chimera and the West Ghost all seem to go with San Francisco.

Yeah, I really think you need to place a mirror next to Image 1 and see what pops out...definitely an 80s technique, remember having books with that effect in them. Along with turning the “Gh” around it also helps to see the “SF” near the dragon’s claws, curious what else shows up when the image is mirrored?

Is it just me or is there a different number on the clock in Image 1 where the 9 should be? Never noticed it before, but looks more like “20”, certainly isn’t “9”! Also on the clock hands I see a vertical “3” with a “5” below it for “35”. Seems like an overlooked clue, something is very odd with this clock! Really obvious if you look at the full size image that George has on the podcast site.

The way I interpreted the clock was as a compass. 3 is actually W, the same as the vine on that side of the table. 9 is E but rotated 90 degrees so the teeth are pointing down. E also in vine on that side of the table. This may confirm that we need to mirror the image to get the direction right.
