Gregory Matloff is a major figure in what might be called the ‘interstellar movement,’ the continuing effort to analyze our prospects for travel to the stars. Greg is Emeritus Associate Professor and Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at New York City College of Technology as well as Hayden Associate at the American Museum of Natural History.

In the summer of 2011, Dr. Matloff delivered a paper in London at the British Interplanetary Society’s conference on the works of philosopher and writer Olaf Stapledon, the author of Star Maker (1937). One of Stapledon’s startling ideas was that stars themselves might have a form of consciousness. Greg’s presentation went to work on the notion in light of anomalous stellar velocities and asked what might make such an idea possible. An excerpt of his paper on the seemingly incredible notion follows.

The Dark Matter hypothesis has been invoked as an explanation for the fact that stars revolve around the centers of their galaxies faster than can be accounted for by observable matter. After decades of failed experimental searches, dark matter has remained elusive. As an alternative to the Dark Matter hypothesis, a idea first presented by author Olaf Stapledon is developed in this paper. Stars are considered to be conscious entities maintaining their galactic position by their volition.

It is shown that directed stellar radiation pressure and stellar winds are insufficient to account for this anomalous stellar velocity. Previous research rules out magnetism. A published theory of psychokinetic action that does not violate quantum mechanics is discussed, as is the suggestion that stellar consciousness could be produced by a Casimir effect operating on molecules in the stellar atmosphere.

It is shown that a discontinuity in stellar velocities as a function of spectral class exists. Cooler red stars in the solar neighborhood move faster than hotter, blue stars, as would be expected if the presence of molecules in stars was a causative factor. Further research in experimentally validating the psychokinetic effect and demonstrating the role of the Casimir effect in consciousness is required to advance the concepts presented here beyond the hypothesis stage.

The motions of our Sun and other stars around the centers of their galaxies cannot be fully accounted for the presence of observable stellar or non-stellar matter. Possible modifications to Einstein-Newton gravitation do not seem appropriate since general relativity has easily passed every experimental test to date. Cosmologists hypothesize the existence of a non-reactive, non-observable but gravitating substance dubbed “dark matter” to account for the discrepancy. Dark matter seems to out-mass ordinary matter, according to many estimates.

But science requires observation or experimental validation for even the most beautiful of theoretical constructs. The continuing failure to detect or observe candidate dark matter objects or particles presents astrophysics with a very serious anomaly. Perhaps, as was the case in the late 19th century with the failure to confirm the ether hypothesis, the solution to the dark matter paradox may require a change in paradigm.

Here, we reintroduce a 1937-vintage hypothesis of the British philosopher/science-fiction author Olaf Stapledon. In his monumental visionary novel Star Maker, Stapledon develops the thesis that stars are conscious and their motions around the galactic center are due to voluntary stellar adherence to the canons of a cosmic dance. This is admittedly an extraordinary hypothesis. But if dark matter remains elusive and undetected no matter how expensive and elaborate the equipment seeking it, exotic alternatives cannot be dismissed out of hand.

Defining consciousness is not easy. We are all rather certain of our own consciousness and relatively convinced that other humans are conscious as well. Most would agree that whales, dolphins, chimps, cats and dogs are conscious organisms as well. But how about snakes, corn, amoeba, and bacteria? Do in fact the mechanisms that support consciousness in the higher animals, in fact, require billions of years of organic evolution to develop? Or does consciousness in some form permeate the entire universe?

Some, like Walker, conclude that consciousness cannot be defined. Instead, it must be thought of as the immediate experience of the world around us and our internal thoughts and emotions. Bohm believes that conscious thought is a process rather than an object. Kafatos and Nadeau argue that this process in some perhaps pantheistic sense permeates the entire universe. Many theories have developed to fit this elusive phenomenon into the framework of physical science.

The concepts developed in this paper accept that consciousness, like gravitation, is built into the structure of the universe. Like gravitation, it cannot be explained by invoking fields or matter independently but requires the interaction of both.

Many of the quantum-physics-based theories of organic consciousness postulate that a universal consciousness field interacts with electrically conducting nanostructures within the cell or nervous system. In higher animals (such as humans) the ~20-nm inter-synaptic spacing in the brain’s neuronal structure have been suggested and analyzed by Evan Harris Walker as locations of the quantum-level events contributing to consciousness. But all living eukaryotic cells contain microtubules. As suggested by Lynn Margolis, a form of “microbial consciousness” may be centered upon these nano-structures.

Various quantum phenomena within these nanostructures have been suggested as the primary “active agents” of consciousness. These include quantum tunneling, quantum entanglement, and the Casimir Effect. It is known that the Casimir Effect—a pressure caused by vacuum fluctuations—is a component of molecular bonds.

We propose the following Casimir-Effect approach to stellar consciousness. It is assumed that the interaction with vacuum fluctuations produces a form of consciousness in all molecular bonds, although this is weaker than the forms of consciousness affected by the interaction of vacuum fluctuations with organic nanostructures such as microtubules and the inter-synaptic spacing. Admittedly this is a pantheistic approach to the universe. All molecules to a certain extent are conscious. Stars cool enough to contain stable molecules are therefore conscious, at least to some extent. Over a very long period of time, they can apply psychokinetic effects to maintain their galactic position and remove at least some of the requirement for the thus-far undetected dark matter.

The ideas presented above might fit in the realms of philosophy and science fiction rather than physics unless there were some observational supporting evidence. A literature search was conducted to determine whether there is a kinematical discontinuity in stellar proper motion depending upon star surface temperature and occurring in the stellar spectral classes for which molecular lines and bands appear.

Since the 1950’s, such a discontinuity has in fact been recognized. Dubbed Parenago’s discontinuity, it refers to the fact that red, cooler stars have faster motions in the direction of galactic rotation than do blue, cooler stars. 

Although it is provocative that Parenago’s stellar velocities around the galactic center increase with molecular abundance in the stellar photosphere, this paper does not claim to prove stellar consciousness as an alternative to dark matter. There are many other more conventional alternative explanations for anomalous stellar kinematics that must be considered as well.

But the validity of some of the assumptions presented here will be confirmed if future work demonstrates that PK effects can be reliably repeated in a laboratory environment. Other assumptions will be validated if future nano-scale computers achieve some level of consciousness when the size of computing elements reaches molecular levels.

If stellar consciousness can be demonstrated to be a reasonable dark matter alternative, major challenges will be presented to the SETI community. How exactly do we communicate with conscious, possibly sentient entities with lifetimes so long that a century seems like a second? And if we can’t do this successfully, how do we prevent the catastrophic wars between planetary and stellar intelligence in Star Maker as human interplanetary capabilities mature?

Spike in carbon-14 levels indicates a massive cosmic event — but supernovae and solar flares ruled out.

Just over 1,200 years ago, the planet was hit by an extremely intense burst of high-energy radiation of unknown cause, scientists studying tree-ring data have found.

The radiation burst, which seems to have hit between ad 774 and ad 775, was detected by looking at the amounts of the radioactive isotope carbon-14 in tree rings that formed during the ad 775 growing season in the Northern Hemisphere. The increase in 14C levels is so clear that the scientists, led by Fusa Miyake, a cosmic-ray physicist from Nagoya University in Japan, conclude that the atmospheric level of 14C must have jumped by 1.2% over the course of no longer than a year, about 20 times more than the normal rate of variation.

"The work looks pretty solid," says Daniel Baker, a space physicist at the University of Colorado's Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics in Boulder, Colorado. "Some very energetic event occurred in about ad 775."

Exactly what that event was, however, is more difficult to determine.

The 14C isotope is formed when highly energetic radiation from outer space hits atoms in the upper atmosphere, producing neutrons. These collide with nitrogen-14, which then decays to 14C. (The fact that this is always happening because of background radiation is what produces a continuous source of 14C for radiocarbon dating.)

The only known events that can produce a 14C spike are floods of gamma rays from supernova explosions or proton storms from giant solar flares. But neither seems likely, Miyake says, because each should have been large enough to have had other effects that would have been observed at the time.

A massive supernova, for example, should have been bright enough to produce a 'new' star visible even in the daytime, as was the case for two known supernovae in ad 1006 and ad 1054. Such an explosion would have needed to be brighter than either of these, Miyake says, because those events were not large enough to leave traces in the 14C record.

It is possible, she says, that the proposed event might have occurred in the far southern skies, where astronomers of the era wouldn't have seen it. But still, she says, if it did happen, today's X-ray and radio astronomers should have found signs of a "tremendously bright" remnant of the explosion.

As for solar flares, she says, anything that could have produced the required amount of super-high-energy protons would have vastly exceeded the most intense solar outburst ever recorded. There should have been a historical record of extraordinary auroras — not to mention that such a gigantic flare would probably have destroyed the ozone layer, with devastating ecological consequences.

Baker, however, thinks that Miyake's team may have been too quick to rule out a solar flare. Flares are sometimes associated with coronal mass ejections (CMEs) — huge eruptions of magnetically charged plasma from the Sun's atmosphere that send streams of charged particles towards Earth. It might be possible, he says, for CMEs to be accompanied by conditions in which an unusual number of protons are accelerated to super-high energies, even without the flare itself being "ridiculously strong".

"We know much more these days about how important proton acceleration is at the shock fronts that precede CME structures as they propagate towards Earth," Baker says. "I would like to think about whether a strong CME moving directly towards Earth could have produced the intense proton population that impacted Earth's atmosphere."

"It would be fascinating," Baker adds, "if there were some record in China or in the Middle East that reported powerful aurora or some other such event" around the same time as the observed 14C increase.

RCMP officer assured Werner Bock that aliens are not flying over his farm.

A cattle farmer from the Petitcodiac area is facing a charge for failing to give his cows adequate medical attention but he argues there is a conspiracy against him that involves heat rays harming his animals.

Werner Bock is charged with failing to give his cows adequate medical attention but he told a Moncton provincial court on Monday that someone is after him and his animals.

Bock accuses the RCMP and veterinarians of ignoring what's happening on his eastern New Brunswick farm.

He said he's lost up to 200 animals in the last 10 years and he's posted a video on the internet where he claims to expose the mystery. The farmer says heat rays are to blame for his cows’ deaths.

Bock goes on to say the authorities are refusing to take him seriously about the heat rays.

“This was covered up by the veterinarians and then it was covered up by the RCMP,” he said in a video.

The video also shows pictures of thin cows that are losing their hair.

In a pre-trial meeting on Monday, Bock tried to subpoena three provincial veterinarians and three RCMP officers to testify.

Provincial Court Judge Jolene Richard noted two of the individuals will already be testifying. But they will be testifying against Bock as witnesses for the prosecution.

As for the others, the judge said she wasn't sure how relevant they would be to the trial.

Bock wants to call a veterinarian who found no evidence of burns on his cows.

He also wants to call a police officer he says assured him there were no aliens flying over his farm.

The trial will be held in September.

Mentioning to many of the leading lights in the field of so-called “Cattle Mutilations” the idea that the admittedly weird phenomenon might have far more to do with the the work of a clandestine group in government or the military than it does with black-eyed aliens from some far away galaxy, is likely to result in a response of an overwhelmingly negative and defensive nature. Belief (particularly of the Mulder-like “I want to believe” variety) is a very powerful tool when it comes to concluding this or that is linked to the UFO puzzle. And that goes for cattle-mutes, too.

But – say the full-on believers in the theory that E.T. like to chow down on a nice tasty steak now and again - if not the aliens, then who else could be responsible? For the most part, they scoff at the idea of predators, cults and the government (the latter being “them” in paranoia-land) as the culprits.

The fact of the matter, however, is that – for decades, no less – various official bodies have taken a clandestine and concerned interest in animal deaths and injuries all across the United States. But not for reasons relative to the actions of menacing, meat-loving extraterrestrials. Nope, the reasons are much different and, in many ways, far more disturbing. We’re talking about shadowy figures sabotaging the food-chain via deliberate, terrorist-style actions and officialdom’s secret and sometimes panicky attempts to stop it.

Think I’m wrong? Think the government could not keep – and still isn’t keeping – a careful and secret watch on the U.S. cattle population for reasons of a national security nature? If you do, it’s time to think again. Read on…

Bacteriological Warfare in the United States is a fascinating FBI document – declassified into the public domain via the terms of the Freedom of Information Act – that covers the years 1941 to 1950. Notably, of the file’s original 1,783 pages, no less than 1,074 have been firmly withheld from declassification by the FBI. The file reveals a wealth of illuminating and disturbing data on animal disease and death, and their potential, theoretical links to bacteriological warfare and sabotage by hostile nations and individuals.

For example, J.R. Ruggle, the FBI Special-Agent-in-Charge at the Savannah, Georgia office of the Bureau in the early-to-mid 1940s, wrote thus to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover on February 3, 1943: “This office has received a copy of a communication from JOHN T. BISSELL, Colonel, General Staff, Assistant Executive Officer, Military Intelligence Service,Washington,D.C., dated December 29, 1942, to directors of intelligence in all Service commands…”

Colonel Bissel’s communication read:

“It has been brought to the attention of this division the possibility in the immediate future of an attempt on the part of the enemy to plant bombs containing germs or to endeavor to create an epidemic, such as hoof and mouth disease, among cattle and other livestock. It is requested that should any information concerning the above come to the attention of the Directors of Intelligence of the Service Commands or the A.C. of S. [Assistant Chief of Staff], G-2 [Army Intelligence], Western Defense Command, that the same be transmitted by the most expeditious means to the Assistant Chief of Staff, G-2 War Department.”

Evidently, such matters were of keen concern to U.S. Intelligence. And that concern did not go away any time soon. In 1944, the FBI prepared a document that dealt with the scenario of a widespread attack on the U.S. cattle herd via unconventional, bacteriological warfare. The document states:

“A review of the book entitled ‘Sabotage’ by Michael Sayers and Albert E. Kahn, which was published in September of 1942, discloses the following data: The complete record of sabotage carried out by Chernov, supposedly of the German Intelligence service in Russia during 1930 to 1936 is too long to put into the book according to the authors, but includes – killing off pedigree breed-stock and raising cattle mortality by artificially infecting cattle with various kinds of bacteria – effecting a shortage of serum to counteract epidemics of anthrax so that, in one instance, 25,000 horses perished as a result of Chernov’s sabotage – infecting tens of thousands of pigs with erysipelas and with certain plagues by having virulent bacteria placed in medicinal sera.

“In another point, the authors have asked the question: ‘Could such wholesale sabotage of agriculture as took place in the Soviet Union take place in the United States of America?’ They then answer the question that, regardless of how fantastic it might sound, such diabolical sabotage was actually practiced by German saboteurs in 1915 in the United States of America.”

The FBI elaborated further:

“Anton Dilger, a German-American medical graduate from John Hopkins University, was in Germany when the First World War broke out. He offered his services to the Kaiser, and was promptly detailed by Colonel Nicolai to do secret service work in the United States. Dilger returned to America with a supply of cultures of glanders and anthrax germs. Financed by von Papen, he set up a laboratory in Chevy Chase, near Washington, and started breeding germs on a large scale for infecting mules, horses, and cattle awaiting shipment to the allies.

“This man then organized a band of some twelve assistants to travel around the country, carrying Dilger’s germs in small glass phials stopped with corks through which a needle extended. This roving band jabbed their deadly needles into the livestock.

“They also spread germs by placing them in fodder and drink. Thousands of soldiers, as well as horses and cattle, died as a result of Dilger’s germs. At last Dilger revolted against his mission of silent death. He was murdered by German spies a few months before the end of the war. Could it happen here? It did happen here!”

The FBI’s declassified records from 1945 reveal that the issue of cattle being potentially affected by bacteriological warfare was a major one. A memo to Hoover dated July 6, 1945 states: “You may be interested in the following information which was reported by the SAC [Special-Agent-in-Charge] of the Norfolk Field Division following a Weekly Intelligence Conference on June 28, 1945.”

The document refers to the work of a man (whose identity is concealed to this day within the pages of the declassified documents) employed by the then-Army Air Force at Langley Field, Virginia, and who had “been assigned to handling investigations concerning the landing of Japanese balloons in the states of North and South Dakota and Nebraska.”

In a summary report, the SAC at Norfolk informed Hoover: “I was interested to learn that recently several Japanese balloons were found in that territory which were determined to have been carrying bacteria. The bacteria consisting of Anthrax, are placed in the hydrogen. I was told that such bacteria mainly affects cattle. When the bacteria lands on wheat or other types or farm land where food is being raised for the cattle, the bacteria remain in the food when it is eaten by the cattle, and upon human consumption of the milk or meat, the bacteria can be passed on.”

Particularly notable is a July 11, 1949 document that refers to the FBI’s desire to acquire “…world-wide information on animal diseases and animal population.” And, one year later, the FBI was still collecting such data. On October 19, 1950, the FBI prepared a document titled Abnormal Loss of Hogs in Nebraska and Illinois that dealt with an unusually high number of hog deaths in the aforementioned states – as a result of cholera. The files, however, make it clear that, in official, FBI quarters, the nature of the animals’ deaths had been viewed with deep suspicion.

It was concluded that the deaths were due to a “variant virus” or “atypical virus” that stemmed from “local conditions and the physical conditions of the hogs.” The important factor, however, is that this document was found within a file specifically focused upon bacteriological warfare. In other words, the FBI was still looking closely at any and all animal deaths that might not have wholly conventional explanations.

Of great significance is the fact that one of the cases that the FBI examined – and that is described in a heavily-redacted memo of May 29, 1950 – dealt with the finding of plague-infected rats at the highly sensitive Sandia Base, New Mexico, and which was viewed in some quarters as being the result of nothing less than a deliberate attempt to clandestinely introduce a widespread plague on Sandia by hostile, unknown sources.

As an example, a document prepared by the FBI’s Special-Agent-in-Charge at its Albuquerque, New Mexico on June 22, 1950, titled Bacteriological Warfare – Espionage-Sabotage (Bubonic Plague), refers to rumors then flying around the official world that an outbreak of bubonic plague in New Mexico’s rat population may have been the result of deliberate, bacteriological warfare-related activities by – once again – hostile, unknown forces.

The FBI noted with respect to its interview with a plague expert, who is identified only as a “Miss Greenfield” that: “…[She] is acquainted with the presence of the plague among wild rodents in New Mexico and in the United States for several years. It has now reached an area from the West Coast to a line running north and south at approximately the border of New Mexico.”

The FBI continued: “From August 1949 there were four cases among humans in New Mexico. Briefly, these four cases, one of which was fatal, were reported in New Mexico. Each case indicated that the victim had shortly before the illness, handled wild rodents which he had killed. The one case in New Mexico which was fatal was not diagnosed as the plague until after death.”

Notably, the FBI subsequently received from the Public Health Service two charts displaying the outbreaks of plague in both New Mexico and the continental United States during that period. And as the FBI noted with respect to the Public Health Service: “…they have found positive evidence of the plague among wild rodents in the states lying west of a line directly north of the east boundary of the state of New Mexico.”

The FBI’s Special-Agent-in-Charge at Albuquerque concluded his report thus: “Miss Greenfield has been requested to advise this office concerning any pertinent developments of the plague in New Mexico or in the United States that may come to her attention. In the event such developments are received, the Bureau will be immediately advised.”

And, in essence, those are the significant, declassified portions of the file. Taking into consideration the fact that we now know senior elements of, and agencies within, the government were taking a deep – albeit secret – interest and concern in cases of unusual disease and death in the U.S. animal population in the 1940s and 1950s, is it really out of the question to suggest they might have done exactly the same thing since the 1960s and right up to the present day?

And, that being so, what better way to hide such actions than behind a smokescreen of alien-themed “cattle mutilations”?

After all, such a smokescreen (or maybe “meme” might be better and more accurate) would keep away the “serious” media, who would lump the phenomenon in with the likes of Roswell, Nessie and Bigfoot and largely ignore it or poke fun at it. UFO researchers would be kept busy chasing non-existing alien butchers. And the debunkers – some of who are hardly strangers when it comes to acting as fawning, pathetic apologists for government – would be content to suggest it’s all the work of coyotes, mountain-lions, birds, insects, etc., etc.

Cattle mutes are real – believe it. But the culprits are not who many think they are (or so desperately want them to be)….

There it is: The doorway to other realities! Humans have not yet learned to control this personal quantum portal yet, but we are learning. This astounding and downright magical door is right up there in our heads and we use it all the time. However, just like our magnificent, life-giving and life-sustaining planet, we take our personal quantum portal for granted. It is the world of The Dream – Dream Reality.

I feel we humans go amok in fully comprehending the Dream Reality because we apply the lowest common denominator to it. We are taught in childhood that if you are bullied at school and then have a dream of being bullied, that your dream was only a “bad dream” and that dreams are not real. “The only value of that dream,” said mother, “is to work out your frustration.

Of course, in the Dream Reality, that bullying experience in school was the scenario which was not “real.” The belief of the Australian Aborigines is that the Dream Reality is the “real reality,” but the civilized world stresses Day Reality.

The Day Reality is that world we know all too well, of greedy financial deals, personal stresses and worries, illness, family disputes, war, rudeness, the Internet – yes, some good scenarios, too in Day Reality! No one is trying to get rid of the Day Reality!

However, as civilization progresses (or “civilization,” depends on your point of view), we humans have almost gotten rid of the Dream Reality. We fail to give it meaningful in-put into our lives, we fail to consider it as important in any way, and like the living spirit of Mother Earth, we often don’t acknowledge that it exists at all.

Australian Aboriginal People believe that every person exists eternally in Dream Time. This eternal aspect of the individual exists before the life of the physical individual begins, and continues to exist when the life of the individual ends.

This spirit-child which is in each of us, exists in The Infinite Dreaming and is only initiated into physical life by being born through a mother. The spirit of the child is understood to enter the developing fetus during the fifth month; when the mother felt the child move in the womb for the first time, it was thought that this was the work of the spirit of the land in which the mother then stood. Upon birth, the child is considered to be a special custodian of that part of his land and is taught the stories and songs about that place.

What a dynamic connection between Human and Planet!

The Aboriginal teachings are that before humans, animals, and plants came into being, their souls existed; they knew they would become physical, but not at what “time.” When that time came, all but one of the souls became plants or animals, with the last one becoming human and acting as guardian to the natural world.

Here is ancient wisdom for the human species in 2012, as our Planet Earth now struggles to sustain its life-forms, partially due to our own recklessness and uncaring ways.

So, back to our boring “work out a bad day in your dreams” world: Yes, this is how dreams are seen as being useful in civilized 2012, good to have an argument with your boss in your dreams to get rid of the frustration at work. Then hopefully you won’t make any waves at work, which is the “real world.”

Of course we replay good Day Reality events too in nightly dreams; we can even resurrect dead relatives and have a picnic with them or take a walk.  If they are like my parents, they will be much happier together in the Dream Reality than they ever were in the Day Reality when alive. In the Dream Reality, they live still and are finally happy and unstressed.

This brings us to the myriad of dream levels: Our Day Reality (when we are awake), is but the tip of Reality itself. In the same way, when we dream of events from the Day Reality (bullying, the boss, and so forth), it is still just the tip of the iceberg of Reality – and the tip of the Dream Reality specifically.

Often as we first dose off, we enter the hypnogogic state.  The Dream Reality door then cracks open! The hypnogogic state is a strange phenomenon which happens at the onset of sleep. Also known as hypnagogia, it induces visions, voices, insights and peculiar sensations as you go bouncing through this borderland terrain.

Hypnogogia varies; sometimes it is the reality you know flashing in and out in crazy ways, but sometimes you see, hear and even touch realities which are completely alien to you. Extraterrestrials and time-aliens can and do show up in this level of Reality. It is only that old Day Reality which tries to filter out these beings, telling you they do not exist in any way because it (your day-mind), refuses to conceive of them, because they frighten your daily mind.  Your day-mind is a rigid censor - a heartless filter - of anything it does not comprehend.

The old day-mind deals with the boss, the headache, the money problems, the wayward son, the computer, and so much more, so we need to give it a break, too. It is not “bad,” but it is not “all” either! It only thinks it is “all.”

Hypnagogic imagery as you fall asleep, contains faces, landscapes and geometric shapes, perhaps like the Aborigines crop circle-like art, which emanated from their Dream Time over thousands of years. 

Complex patterns flow across your field of vision, becoming almost hypnotic in nature. You can manipulate the hypnogogic state with intense focus, but you must not let your day-mind awaken fully to delete the whole thing. It is very skilled at doing that!  What many people don't realize is this imagery can be used to induce lucid dreams.

Is there a connection to our Dream Reality and Jungian archetypes? Do our dreams link to creations of consciousness and even to the Dream Reality of our living planet? Our Dream Reality to her Dream Reality – a pathway to our Mother Goddess? I believe so!

Fairies and other nature spirits are quite at home in our Dream Reality!   Also, our quantum dream portals open to extraterrestrials and other-dimensional beings so that they can interact with their human cousins safely; the Dream Reality is safe for both human and other-world beings.

Of course some people worry about nightmares wherein alien monsters come out of the woodwork. The truth is, some souls manage to keep their dream-ship on an even course, so that even if there is a nightmare, it does not make a lasting impression. Other souls are more   fearful by nature. Perhaps this gets into past life experiences or bad childhoods or whatever makes us each unique in the cosmos.

I can only say that if you wish to explore the Dream Reality as a valid reality and work to have mastery of it, you should do so! Don’t let those-who-fear-dreams stop you when they tell you of their frightening dreams and give sometimes nonsensical warnings.
It boils down to the same choices those astronauts had to make in Day Reality: Do I boldly go up in that little tin space capsule, Major Tom? Or do I stay safe down in this “reality?”

Of course there are a million other examples large and small: Do I try to help that wounded dog off the highway or do I stay safe? That wounded dog, when saved, will change your reality, making it 100% better with his lifelong companionship.

I suppose there is always a huge risk, both to astronauts and dog-savers. Day Reality tries to make us frightened of everything, tries to tell us to stay safe at all costs. It is up to you how important “safety at all costs” – is.

It is the same regarding coming face to face with aliens in Day Reality (“real” reality), that’s assuming they exist in our “real reality,” and I firmly believe they do.

Do I cower in fear behind my sofa and hope that saucer departs from my back yard?

Or do I carefully go toward the back yard with my fingers making the peace sign and a smile plastered on my face? Perhaps there is no right answer!

Incidentally, if in the aliens’ society, the peace sign is an insult, well—I do believe they’ve studied us long and thoroughly, and they do know our peace sign and our smile. You can say I am naïve but what is your alternative to these numerous spacecraft with these occupants inside, zooming around our skies every day? What is the human race to do? Really? I feel strongly we must go out to the back yard demanding to be equal, and get started with this galactic community thing!

Back to the Dream Reality: There are so many levels to dreams, from nitty gritty replays of daily life to the deep dreams of REM sleep, to the hypnopompic state.

The hypnopompic state is that level of consciousness preceding waking. You can have dreams then which are easier to remember and often quite significant. I have felt many other-world interactions in my hypnopompic state with aliens and earth spirits. In fact, I often wake up with an answer with to a Day Reality problem or to a cosmic puzzle, and it is usually given during this pre-awakening dream consciousness. The Irish say that the fairies have visited you if you wake up with an answer to a problem or puzzle.

Some dreams reoccur often, we are suddenly back in that same unknown house or country road or city building, night after night. And yet, we have never been to these places, so we return to these timelines night after night. These alternate realities seem to wait for us to return.

Do you have prophetic dreams? Many people have seen catastrophes they believe are to come in the Day Reality. Often these connect to these Change Times and the coming Change Point.

Do you interact with extraterrestrials or other-worlders repeatedly in your dreams?  Are they the same being or beings? Are they teachers or perhaps simply – friends?

Or are they YOU?

Do you have another self in your dreams, rather like an avatar in a virtual reality game? Or perhaps not like an avatar, but simply YOU in another aspect of your whole quantum self?

Or perhaps you have had one enormously significant prophetic dream which haunts and guides you the rest of your life.

One thing is certain: We are not talking about some unimportant dream-state. We are considering quantum realities and the truth about Reality itself. We are considering Consciousness! After all, isn’t that what the universe is composed of?

Dreams are real, not just in the sense that we all go to sleep and we all dream. Our Dream Realities are valid! They are part of Reality itself.

Some theorize that dreams are valid alternate timelines which come to an end as we awaken. Yes, the Dream Reality seems to end when we wake up, but then the Day Reality ends when we go to sleep. Which is more valid?

Yes, dreams end, but so does this life we are currently living. This reality comes to an end for all of us, doesn’t it?

I am positive that our infinite spirit – our consciousness - wakes up again after “death” to the Greater Reality. Perhaps I will be that time traveler who haunts my dreams.

Perhaps I am that time traveler who haunts my dreams!

He comes through the portal. He teaches. He experiences. I learn. I also teach and experience.

Do alien and human worlds meet in Dream Time? We desperately need a common ground to establish simple, basic understanding, respect, and even love for each other. I feel the aliens do use the dream levels of our consciousness to begin this mutual knowledge.

Perhaps we are all pioneer souls, as we read about UFOs and then dream each night. We lead the way to that common ground as we contribute “Yes, aliens are real!” to the mass human consciousness. Portals open….

They have been closely guarded for more than 30 years, but guidelines on how to deal with divine apparitions of the Virgin Mary and "supernatural phenomena" have now been released by the Vatican.

The "norms" on how the Roman Catholic Church should deal with mystical apparitions were initially drawn up in Latin in 1978 under Pope Paul VI and were intended for strictly internal use.

They shed light on the sorts of apparitions which have inspired the establishment of shrines such as those at Lourdes in France and Fatima in Portugal, which attract millions of pilgrims a year, many in search of cures for illnesses or other "miracles".

The guidelines are intended to help bishops "in their difficult task of discerning presumed apparitions, revelations, messages or, more generally, extraordinary phenomena of presumed supernatural origin," Cardinal William Levada, the American prefect of the CDF, wrote in a preface.

Deciding whether a spiritual revelation is genuine or not is based on its "orientation to Christ Himself," Cardinal Levada wrote. "If it leads us away from Him, then it certainly does not come from the Holy Spirit." Determining whether a spiritual revelation is authentic or not is the responsibility of the local bishop, the Vatican said.

He is required to set up a special panel of theologians, psychologists and doctors to judge the "psychological equilibrium and rectitude of moral life" of the person or people reporting the apparition and whether it corresponds with Church doctrine.

The bishop should try to "discern quickly" the authenticity of an apparition, although his judgment could be impeded by "critical scientific investigation", the Vatican said.

A revelation would be dismissed if there was evidence that the person who had witnessed it was mentally unsound, whether the vision was the product of "collective hysteria" or if there was a suspicion that the whole thing was a fraud concocted for profit.

If the bishop cannot make a decision, the judgment can ultimately be referred to the Pope himself.

The Vatican decided to make the guidelines public, and to translate them into five languages, including English, because elements had leaked out into the public domain over the years.

They have been published by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), the powerful Vatican department which was headed by Benedict before he was elected Pope in 2005.

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith is currently investigating claims that a group of six Catholic children began to see apparitions of the Virgin Mary in the town of Medjugorje in Bosnia-Herzegovina, starting in 1981.

The apparition claims have been judged groundless by a local bishop, but that has not stopped an estimated 30 million believers from visiting the pilgrimage site.

Lourdes, in the foothills of the Pyrenees, became a shrine after apparitions of the Virgin Mary were witnessed by a shepherd girl, Bernadette Soubirous, in 1858.

The publication of the guidelines may provide temporary distraction from one of the worst crises of Benedict XVI's seven-year papacy – the leaking of confidential documents and the arrest of his personal butler, amid claims of vicious faction fighting within the Holy See.
