A Framework for Understanding UFOs: The Centroid Triangle
A Framework for Understanding UFOs: The Centroid Triangle
UFO research is roughly divided into camps. Craft and sightings, experiencers and contact, and government programs and institutions. What if those camps are not in competition, but are three poles of the same system. A triangle. The UFO phenomenon tends to cluster around three archetypal attractors. Event, experiencer, control. Every UFO-related situation, whether it's a sighting, a historical incident, or a contact case, can be located somewhere inside that triangle. In the experiencer corner of the triangle is people who report contact encounters, telepathic communication, dreams or visions involving NHI. These people often share certain psychological or symbolic patterns. The event corner is the corner most people are familiar with. Mass sightings, physical traces, military intercepts, famous cases. Here the UFO phenomenon behaves like a public rupture in reality. Something happens that is visible, measurable, or witnessed by many people. The focus is not on a specific individual, but on the event itself. The control corner is institutions reacting to the phenomenon. Secrecy, debunking campaigns, intelligence agencies, etc. In the triangle model, this corner represents the system that stabilizes or suppresses disruptive information. Most cases sit between two corners. Cases where a personal contact experience leads to a visible encounter or physical trace, major sightings that immediately trigger government or military involvement, situations where institutions investigate, monitor, or manage experiencers. Different UFO cases behave differently because they are sitting in different parts of the triangle. The triangle gives us a map, but a map doesn’t explain the terrain. It just tells us where things are located. The next step is identifying the center of gravity of the system. I call that center the Supercentroid. The point where the three attractors balance. It represents the underlying structure that produces the patterns we see in UFO cases. When a case sits near one corner of the triangle, it means one force in the system is dominant. When a case sits between two corners, it means those forces are interacting. But when cases begin clustering toward the center, something more interesting is happening. The phenomenon is expressing multiple aspects at once. When you start mapping UFO cases this way, the patterns begin to look less like isolated events and more like geometry. One way to think about it is through the idea of fractals. In nature, fractals are patterns that repeat across different scales. Coastlines, lightning, and branching trees all follow fractal geometry. The same structural pattern appears whether you zoom in or zoom out. Something very similar seems to happen with UFO cases. Individual experiences, major historical sightings, and even long-term flaps of activity often repeat the same underlying relationships between experiencers, events, and institutions. The scale changes, but the structure remains recognizable. So if the UFO phenomenon has a structure, then what determines when and where those patterns appear? This is where I introduce another layer of analysis. Ephemeris timing and archetypal cycles. Human history has always tracked the motions of the sky. Astronomers use ephemerides. Tables that record the positions of celestial bodies at any moment in time. These records allow us to reconstruct the geometry of the solar system for any historical date. Astrology, at its most serious level, isn’t fortune telling. It’s the study of symbolic patterns that appear when certain celestial geometries repeat. Archetypal astrology doesn’t claim that planets cause events in a mechanical sense. Instead, it looks at correlations between planetary cycles and recurring themes in human history. When I compare UFO events to these astronomical records, something surprising starts to emerge. Certain kinds of UFO incidents appear during very specific planetary configurations. Experiencer cases, large-scale sightings, and major historical waves often correspond to different types of celestial geometry. When those celestial patterns are mapped alongside the Centroid Triangle, the result is what I call the Astro-Mythic Map. It’s essentially a way of combining three layers of information. The human layer (experiencers), the event layer (sightings and encounters), and the institutional layer (control and response), and comparing them with the geometric cycles of the solar system. In other words, instead of studying UFO cases one by one, the goal is to see whether they form repeatable patterns across time. When enough cases are mapped this way, something remarkable begins to appear. The UFO phenomenon starts to look less like random anomalies and more like waves moving through a structured field of archetypal cycles. And if that turns out to be true, then the Centroid Triangle isn’t just a way of classifying UFO cases. It's a way of locating where we are inside a much larger pattern. submitted by /u/Julian_Thorne [link] [comments]
