Editorial: The Death Cycle

The editorial, titled "THE DEATH CYCLE," references a "Pentagon Presses 'Death Ray' study" from the St. Louis Post (3/10/78), discussing a billion-volt 'death ray' weapon. It connects this to Edgar Cayce's readings about the "re-discovering" of ancient Atlantean technological feats. The editorial posits that the same technology that kills can also cure, and that the current destructive cycle is a repetition of conditions that led to the sinking of Atlantis. It suggests that humanity is experiencing a "re-cycling of the SAME SOULS" and that the physical earth is in a new vibratory field. The editorial concludes by urging readers to "Look to the Past. For therein lies the Secret!"

UFO's International Reports

The magazine includes several international reports on UFO sightings:

• Tasmania: A man reported a seven-foot "being from outer space" with silvery color and bright beams of light from its eyes, which appeared to walk through a solid fence. Another report from Tasmania describes a figure floating into a caravan through the roof hatch and later five witnesses seeing a strange figure glide up steps.
• Argentina: The police chief of Catamarca reported a flotilla of UFOs, and similar formations were seen in Villa Mercedes and Mendoza. A Chilean Army patrol in Arica reportedly made contact with the crew of a flying saucer.
• Mexico: Mexican soldiers searched for "little green men" after a UFO reportedly crashed in the Sierra Madre, with some crew members escaping alive and others dying.
• England (Risley): A motorist reported sighting a seven-foot "being from outer space" near a nuclear establishment.
• England (Warminster): Sky watchers observed two high-flying UFOs, followed by two figures described as being made of smoke, about 7ft tall.
• England (Bournemouth): A hovering shape, described as a familiar type of UFO, was recorded on film.

Other Strange News

• Montevideo: An unknown fan-tailed Sea Monster, weighing about a ton, was fished out of the Rio de la Plata.
• Heathsville, VA: A creature similar to the Loch Ness Monster, described as undulating and gliding, was reported in the Chesapeake Bay and Potomac River.
• Ft. Lauderdale, FL: Phillip Miller believes he has located the "Lost City" in Peru, with evidence of 12 pyramids found on a NASA satellite photo.
• Servilleta, New Mexico: A human hand was found in a meadow, puzzlingly preserved, leading to a search for a body.

Mamelwouth: The Mysterious!

This feature by Joan O'Connell details a story from Mrs. Cosette Willoughby of Las Cruces, New Mexico, who discovered a strange stone with carved faces and writing, which she named "Mamelwouth." The stone reportedly conveyed telepathic messages, including that it was thirsty, and after being given water, it "puffed up" to twice its size. Mrs. Willoughby also claims to have found other "live" stones and calls them the "ancient Serpent people."

Letters to the Editor

The "Letters to the Editor" section includes correspondence from:

• Michael Heleus: Reporting a "Miracle Cat" whose wound healed swiftly after being placed near styrofoam icosahedra.
• Evelyn Lanning: Expressing gratitude for the journal and inquiring about acquiring George Hunt Williamson's latest book.
• Larry E. Arnold: Subscribing to the journal based on a recommendation, with a focus on pyrophenomena, alternative energies, and cataclysmic geology.
• Reverend Mabel Hazell: Praising Joan O'Connell's personal attitude and encouraging her work.
• Virginia Louise (Swanson): Subscribing and sharing her theory about Bigfoot, noting that Peter Byrne of the Bigfoot Research Center expressed interest in her book.
• Mrs. Josephine Evans: Requesting back issues of the journal.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue include UFO sightings and encounters, ancient civilizations and their lost technologies (Atlantis, pyramids), alternative energies (solar, crystal, pyramid, Orgone), and psychotronic phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be one of exploring the unexplained and mysterious, with a particular interest in cyclical patterns of destruction and renewal, drawing parallels between ancient civilizations and modern technological advancements. There is a strong emphasis on looking to the past for understanding and a belief in the interconnectedness of various phenomena, from UFOs to ancient mysteries and personal karma.

This issue of The A.U.F.O. Report, Volume 1, Number 1, published in 1978, presents a diverse range of topics including archaeology, ufology, and metaphysics.

Ancient Aztec Empire Relics Uncovered Below Mexico City

Reprinted from The Grand Rapids Press, this article details the ongoing archaeological excavation in Mexico City. The dig, located in the Zocalo, is unearthing the main ceremonial stone pyramid and temple of the ancient Aztec Empire. Archeologists, under the auspices of the National Institute of Anthropology and History, have discovered a large circular stone weighing 84 tons, adorned with relief statues and gargoyle-like serpents. Professor Eduardo Matos, leading the excavation, stated that the pyramid housed two temples, each with stairs rising 150 feet. The pyramid itself was likely 180 feet high with a 240-foot base. The article notes that the Spaniards tore down at least the upper half of the pyramid. The massive stone, about nine feet across, tells the story of Huitzilopochtli, a main god of Aztec mythology. The other temple is believed to be dedicated to Tlaloc, the god of rain and water. The excavation has yielded over 1,000 artifacts, with a deeper excavation revealing more evidence of the pyramid's function.

Rock Writings

Pages 9 and 10 feature samples of rock writings, with a note encouraging readers to help identify their origin. The images display various symbols and glyphs, some appearing to be copied from stones, including examples attributed to Mrs. Cosette Willoughby and Mamelmouth.

The Power Within: Destruction? Or Rebirth?

Authored by Tal Levesque, this article explores natural resources and energy sources, suggesting that UFOs might be connected to these phenomena. The "storehouse" of natural resources in the Rocky Mountain states, including gold, silver, copper, molybdenum, zinc, coal, uranium, and oil shale, is discussed. Beyond coal and nuclear energy, the article highlights solar and wind power, as well as geothermal power, crystal energies, and ION power. It is speculated that these latter forms of energy may be utilized by "other Beings" responsible for UFO sightings. The article notes that UFOs are frequently seen over certain mountains sacred to the Indians in the Southwest. These mountains, often composed of granite with quartz crystal, mica, and feldspar, can produce a "Piezoelectric" effect, with hollow caverns acting as air condensers for energy storage. Mount Taylor and the Grants Uranium Belt are mentioned as significant energy-related locations, with radiation ionizing the air and accumulating in clouds and crystals. The Earth is described as a large battery losing electrons to the atmosphere, and ION collisions can generate luminous energy.

Visible ionization, termed corona, can be seen as a BLUISH GLOW. Cross-referencing with U.S. Geological Survey maps reveals "mystery spots" where gravity and light are distorted, and UFOs seem to follow alignments between these spots and high mountain peaks, suggesting they act as beacons.

The article posits the theory of an ancient civilization of "Under-People" co-existing within the Earth. Evidence cited includes the discovery of giant skeletons with six toes near Crittenden, Arizona. In Turkey's Goreme Valley, a man discovered a rolling door leading to an abandoned underground city, carved out over 1300 years ago, with living areas, work rooms, and passageways extending over 250 feet deep. This city housed 60,000 people and was connected to another underground city by a six-mile tunnel. Similar areas composed of volcanic ash rock called Tuff are found in the Four-Corner States and may exist in national forests in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado. Entrances to these "Cavern Worlds" are camouflaged, sometimes appearing as a faint blue shimmering outline around an egg-shaped slab or boulder.

Indians in the Southwest speak of areas that induce a prickly sensation, attributed to hidden vents or lava tubes leading into sacred mountains. The symbol of a TRIDENT is associated with caverns and is found inscribed on a mountain in Peru, known as the "Candlelabra of the Andes," symbolizing the "Tree of Life." This symbol is also linked to psychic powers and ESP activity. The influence of Neptune, associated with the Trident, suggests a journey into the unknown. The article predicts that the 1980s will bring inspiration and Utopian dreams, but also a "dangerous period" that could lead to "CATACLYSM or REBIRTH." The appearance of the Trident signals a time of Magic, Mystery, and the Secrets of the Ancient Portals.

Mexico's "Zone of Silence"

Written by Dr. C. Ralph Campo, President/Founder of the House of all Riches and the NEW-CLEAR FOUNDATION, this article recounts his experiences and investigations into Mexico's "Zone of Silence." Dr. Campo has traveled to Baja California, Mexico, since 1966. In 1977, a Mexican TV news caster announced the discovery of this mysterious zone, which intrigued his students. The caravan journeyed through Baja California, encountering a vibrant city and majestic mountains. Near Durango, the mountain peak appeared to be on fire with unusual colors, followed by a unique rainbow. Arriving in Ceballos, a town near the Zone, they met Mr. Rosendo Aguilera, the owner of the vast area. Aguilera, who lives with his wife, proved cooperative and agreed to guide them. He showed them strange stones, plants, and fossils found in the Zone.

What's the Question? Universal Law

This section, reprinted from "TRILTON THOUGHT" by The Livingston Center, addresses the concept of "Universal Law." The primary tenet is "Love" as a noun, which requires breaking down into sub-headings for understanding. Universal Law demands absolute justice and asserts that individuals possess absolute Free Will. Every aspect of existence is governed by choices made. Cause and effect are central, with one's beliefs and actions creating their current situation. The article emphasizes that individuals receive back in exact measure what they put out, whether positive or negative. It states that if a negative situation persists, the cause is still in effect. The concept of eternity is presented as "NOW," with past, present, and future lives existing in parallel dimensions. Changing one's beliefs in the present can alter past effects, a principle underlying faith healing. Natural disasters are described as effects, with human beliefs and thought-intentions as causes. Thoughts and beliefs are portrayed as the playwright of life, and the physical condition and life situation as the stage. Individuals are responsible for their experiences, neither subjected to bad nor gifted with good.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the exploration of the unknown, ancient mysteries, and alternative energy sources, often intertwined with paranormal and metaphysical concepts. There is a strong emphasis on the idea that hidden knowledge and powers exist, whether in ancient civilizations, underground realms, or within the human mind through Universal Law. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting theories and evidence from various sources, including archaeological findings, anecdotal reports of UFOs, and philosophical discussions, encouraging reader participation in deciphering these mysteries.

This issue of The Pulaski Citizen, dated from the 1970s, focuses on a variety of unexplained phenomena, including UFO sightings, mysterious locations, cryptids, and psychic abilities. The cover headline, "The One Thing No Conspiracy Can Stand Is The Light Of Day On Its Activities," by Stanley Ingram, sets a tone of investigative journalism into controversial topics.

Zone of Silence in Mexico

The issue details experiences in the "Zone of Silence" in Mexico. The author recounts seeing photographs of a large UFO and strange lights. He also describes finding fragments of a meteorite that fell on his land, which he links to a U.S. satellite landing from Mars. In this region, compasses reportedly malfunction, and radio waves are distorted, with some stations seemingly broadcasting in reverse. A personal account describes a terrifying encounter where a 'man-like' form attempted to strangle the author, and subsequent digging in the area revealed a human skeleton. The Mexican government has established a laboratory to study this zone. The author also describes exploring the area, noting an enormous fig tree growing by a fountain that only flows when the sun is aligned in a specific way. The local wildlife and plant life are described as unusual, with plants having different coloration and cacti being red, turning green when transplanted out of the zone.

Meteorite and Earth's Cycles

Further details are provided about the meteorite incident. Scientists were alarmed by the possibility of the Mariner's satellite colliding with the meteorite, but it inexplicably diverted its path to fall in the Zone of Silence. The author draws parallels between Earth's elements and cycles and the human body, likening seasons to stages of growth and day/night to awakening/sleep. He suggests a connection between the Zone of Silence, the Pyramids, and the Bermuda Triangle, proposing a subterranean highway from South America to Canada.

UFOs and Encounters

Stanley Ingram, a columnist for The Pulaski Citizen, shares his personal experiences with UFOs. He recounts seeing a mothership with flashing lights and a glowing ball. He believes these craft are designed to be perceived as airplanes and that he was being monitored. He describes the mothership as torpedo or gas tank shaped, with scouts as perfect spheres. Ingram claims to communicate with a 'monitor' via telepathy, which he calls 'reflex' telepathy, and expresses disappointment that promises made to him have not been kept. He also mentions that "THEY" first contacted a friend in January 1974 through a form of mental telepathy he calls "The Voice in the Head." In March 1974, his 14-year-old daughter was reportedly taken aboard a UFO and shown various locations, including the Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco, before returning.

Men In Black and Ghostly Apparitions

The issue touches upon encounters with the "Men In Black" (MIB), described as dark-complected beings who drive large black Cadillacs. A person's daughter reported being waylaid and beaten by four MIBs on February 11, 1976. The daughter also reportedly experienced apparitions of deceased friends in her bedroom and in a car, described as lifelike rather than misty ghosts.

The Yeti Phenomenon

Several accounts relate to sightings of a large, hairy monster, referred to as a "Yeti." In Giles County, Tennessee, over 20 people have reported seeing this elusive monster. One incident describes a man, T.C., and his companion being terror-struck by an 8-foot hairy monster that appeared at the back of their car. T.C. subsequently "believes" in such creatures. The article notes sightings in various locations within Giles County and nearby areas. Another account from 1968 describes a couple hearing noises in the brush near their car, which then failed to start after a loud crash.

Yeti Encounters and UFO Connection

Further details on Yeti encounters are presented. A 16-year-old boy reportedly shot a giant Yeti at close range with a 12-gauge shotgun, but the creature showed no signs of being hit. Another case describes a boy shooting a Yeti in the chest with a 30-06 rifle, resulting in a terrifying yell before the creature ran off, seemingly unaffected. The author suggests that these creatures belong to flying saucers, which explains why they are never captured, as they are protected by their "owners." The issue hints at a continuation of these stories in the next issue, including personal follow-ups, another abduction, and theories of cloning.

Psychic Warfare and Mind Control

An article titled "Psychic Warfare" by Edith Kermit Roosevelt discusses the American intelligence community's growing concern over Communist parapsychological research. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) is reportedly studying how parapsychology can be used for mind control. The USSR is said to have at least 20 centers for studying psychic phenomena, with a significant budget, driven by its military and KGB. Reports suggest Soviet applications of clairvoyance, hypnotism, and dowsing in military operations. A DIA document outlines potential Soviet capabilities within a decade, including knowing the contents of secret documents, controlling thoughts of leaders, causing instant death at a distance, and disabling military equipment.

The Psychokinetic Pyramid

An article by Buryl Payne, Ph.D., explores the concept of "pyramid energy" and introduces the "Psychokinetic Pyramid." The author, a scientist, sought an objective way to demonstrate pyramid energy. He discovered that a pyramid, suspended by a thread and free from air currents, could rotate when people were nearby or intensely focused on it. This phenomenon, termed "psychokinesis," suggests an interaction with the human body's energy field. The article provides instructions on how to build and experiment with a Psychokinetic Pyramid and notes that not everyone can make it rotate, nor can it be made to rotate all the time.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue consistently explores themes of the unexplained, the paranormal, and potential government or extraterrestrial cover-ups. The articles present personal testimonies, investigative reports, and scientific inquiries into phenomena that challenge conventional understanding. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-minded investigation into these subjects, encouraging readers to consider possibilities beyond mainstream explanations. The inclusion of advertisements for related books and publications further reinforces the magazine's focus on esoteric and paranormal topics.

Title: The Psychic Observer CHIMES
Issue Date: August 1978
Publisher: ESPress, Inc.
Country: USA
Document Type: Magazine Issue

This issue of The Psychic Observer CHIMES, dated August 1978, explores a range of topics including psychic phenomena, UFO sightings, ancient mysteries, and future predictions. The magazine features articles on alleged psychic experiments, unusual footprints, and a variety of UFO encounters. It also touches upon the growth of occult-inspired cults and their potential role in mind warfare. Ancient civilizations like Atlantis and Lemuria are discussed in the context of prophecies and hidden records. The issue includes predictions for the coming decades, analyses of the solar system's characteristics, and a list of specific predictions for August 1978.

Psychic Experiments and Potential Warfare

The issue begins by citing experiments from Leningrad's Bekhterev Brain Institute, where subjects were put to sleep telepathically and woken via telepathy. It also references the work of E. Naumov in similar telepathic experiments. The article suggests that the vast complex of labor and prisoner camps behind the Iron Curtain could be targets for mass psychic screening or for selecting individuals for espionage or terrorism. Citing declassified DIA documents, it states that the US lacks the capability to counter 'offensive psychic weaponry.' The growth of 'politico-religious' elitist cults in the United States, such as satanism and Manson-type families, is highlighted, drawing parallels to pre-Nazi Germany and the potential for revolutionary groups to use 'occult' networks for mind warfare.

UFO Sightings and Encounters

Several UFO sightings and related phenomena are detailed. One report from Rome, Italy, describes unusually large footprints found on a building roof. Another article discusses 13 UFO sightings over Elvis Presley's grave, with descriptions of orange-lit saucers hovering and shining laser-like lights. A cemetery in Catskill, NY, reportedly had a mass of 20 to 30 blinking lights appear. A premonition of a 'flying saucer' preceded a fatal van crash involving a fundamentalist sect. Johnny Sands, a Nevada nightclub singer, is mentioned as having been abducted by 'aliens.' The cover story details a UFO sighting in Venice, Florida, by Joe and Fran Nigro and their neighbor Jim Minor, describing the object as a two-inch square light within a bat-like craft.

Ancient Civilizations and Prophecies

The article 'THE 'ATLANTEAN' PREDICTS!' by Rev. Thomas Allen Long, submitted in August 1978, links current volcanic eruptions and erratic weather patterns to conditions after the demise of Atlantis. It suggests that Russia is experimenting with advanced technologies that affect weather and life forms, drawing parallels to the scientists who controlled Atlantis. The article posits that certain areas of the world are safer due to 'vortices of energy' and predicts significant geological events, including portions of Atlantis rising and the discovery of the 'ORIGINAL TEMPLE OF ILTAR' in Yucatan, containing records from Lemuria dating back 460 million years. It criticizes modern scientists for potentially ignoring these revelations, similar to how the Dead Sea Scrolls and Nag Hammadi Codices were treated.

Future Predictions and Safer Areas

Predictions for the next twenty years suggest that southern Saskatchewan, eastern Canada, parts of Montana, Nevada, Baja California, southern Arizona, and New Mexico will become havens. The Pampas region of Argentina and parts of South Africa are also expected to be safe and contribute to food needs. Virginia Beach is identified as a spiritual haven. The article anticipates that during the 1980s and 90s, parts of the Pacific Coast and Greenland will be submerged due to quakes and atmospheric activity, while portions of Atlantis will rise. The discovery of ancient records from Lemuria and Atlantis is anticipated.

The Solar System and Cosmic Cycles

'PART THREE: "THE SOLAR LOTUS"' by Rocky McCollum analyzes the Solar System through a symbolic lens. It interprets the number 7 as referring to the Seven Rays and the number 12 as representing the 12 heavenly bodies (including the Sun and a hypothetical Planet 'X'). The article discusses the dual nature of comets revolving around the sun, one set counter-clockwise (female) and the other clockwise (male). It uses Halley's Comet, a male-rotating comet, to suggest that the Sun and the Solar System are predominantly male, despite the presence of female planets. This analysis is linked to Theosophical and Buddhist precepts, treating the Solar System as a 'lotus.'

The Reiss Predictions: August 1978

Submitted by Dr. Reiss, a list of 16 predictions for August 1978 is presented. These include atmospheric phenomena in southern US states, discovery of treasure and resources (Uranium, Platinum, Thorium), links between UFO activity and subterranean bases in the Bermuda Triangle, sightings of unknown objects in Miami, Bigfoot activity, discovery of oil and natural gas, unusual fires involving freighters, new microwave communications, extraterrestrial contacts, delays due to EM interference, sabotage of a nuclear vehicle, cessation of data transmission from Cape Canaveral, polar ice drift, and announcements of scientific groups studying spacemen.

Cosmic Flea Market and Advertisements

The issue includes a 'Cosmic Flea Market' section featuring various advertisements for related products and services. These include UFO clipping services, a bi-monthly newsletter on pyramidology, spiritual readings and charts, meditation chairs, psychic readings by mail, books on metaphysical and occult subjects, copper pyramids, a new monthly magazine called 'VISIONS,' a book titled 'NIGHTSIDE OF GOLD,' Finnish recipes, and services for new authors. An advertisement for 'The Psychic Gazette' offers back issues and a subscription at a discount. Another promotes 'NOVELTY UFO' pocket-sized discs. A section for 'Scientists Discover ESP MACHINE!' offers plans to build a device for psychic feats. An advertisement for DOC PHILLIPS promotes a book on pyramid design.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently promotes a New Age perspective, emphasizing spiritual awareness, psychic phenomena, and alternative explanations for events. There is a strong focus on UFOs, ancient mysteries, and predictions of future events, often framed within a context of cosmic cycles and spiritual evolution. The editorial stance appears to be one of exploring unconventional ideas and providing information that challenges mainstream scientific and societal views. The magazine encourages readers to exercise their 'INDIVIDUAL FREE WILL and CHOICE' in navigating these changing times and preparing for future events, advocating for a positive and wise approach. The 'New Atlantean Journal' is presented as a publication serving as a 'counter-balance' to disruptive forces.

This issue of The New Atlantean Journal, dated July 1979, explores a range of esoteric and unexplained phenomena, including the nature of consciousness, celestial configurations, alleged UFO encounters, and the phenomenon of animal mutilations. The cover features a dramatic depiction of "FUTURE DESTRUCTION," "ATLANTIS," and "UNKNOWN INTELLIGENCES."

Chakras and the Solar System

The article "This formation is mind-boggling" discusses the concept of chakras and their potential manifestation within the Solar System. The author posits that the Solar System can form the shape of an Ankh, a configuration termed the "Full Solar Lotus," which is considered exceptionally rare. This formation is compared to astrological aspects like trines and squares, suggesting a unique planetary juxtaposition. The author believes that ancient figures like Akhenaton understood this concept, but their teachings were suppressed. The theory extends to the idea that the seven chakras of the human body have external identifications, which can be seen in living beings and, analogously, in celestial bodies.

The text separates chakras into two groups: head chakras and body chakras. The head chakras are identified as (7) Judgment, (6) Intellect, and (5) Harmony, often referred to as the "triple-warmer." These are believed to reside in the Sun. The body chakras, numbering four, are thought to be distributed among the planets circling the Sun, with planets potentially "sharing" these chakras or rays. The article details the human associations of the head chakras: Judgment with the eyes, Intellect with hair (amount, color, qualities), and Harmony with the neck, throat, and voice, with the mouth being an external marking. These are noted as areas of significant focus in cosmetology.

The Sun itself is described as exhibiting these head chakras through markings: (7) Judgment chakra is indicated by sunspots at 30 degrees North latitude. The (6) Intellect chakra is represented by the sun's corona, which changes form but always surrounds the sun. The (5) Harmony chakra is shown as sunspots in the 30 degree South latitude, referred to as a "mouth" on the solar disc. The article notes that sunspots follow an eleven-year cycle, with the next maximum expected around 1979. The rotation of the sun is counter-clockwise, causing spots to move from left to right. The Northern and Southern groups of spots differ in size and shape. Edgar Cayce is mentioned in relation to sunspots being a form of "solar karma."

The four body chakras are then discussed: (4) Ego resides in the spleen, associated with the color red and manifesting externally as blushing. The spleen's functions are subtle and not fully understood, and it can be removed or become detached. (3) Love chakra manifests in the external sexual organs and gonads. (2) Will chakra appears externally in the breast marks, more prominent in females due to mammary glands. The article states that the Sun shows the (5) Harmony chakra as a "mouth" in the 30 degree South latitude sunspots.

Ordeal in Arkansas: A Case Study

The article "ORDEAL IN ARKANSAS" by Thomas Adams, reprinted from STIGMATA, details a disturbing account involving alleged animal mutilations and UFO-related encounters. The report focuses on a woman referred to as Mrs. L., who recounted an experience from 1977 or 1976.

While picking apples at her Arkansas home, Mrs. L. fell and severely cut her leg. While semi-conscious, she saw two approaching figures, one tall and thin, the other shorter. These humanoids, though not human, used an apparatus to treat her wound, stopping the bleeding and pain within 15 minutes, leaving only a slight scar. They presented her with a metal plaque bearing carvings, including "Pyramids" and "six-pointed stars." When offered food, they stated they only consumed "juice," but not human juice.

Six weeks later, Mrs. L.'s dog went missing. While searching, she discovered a clearing containing two "Air Force" helicopters, two "men in white coats" working on a horse, two men in uniform, and the same two creatures who had previously healed her. Realizing she was witnessing something she shouldn't, she fled. A helicopter pursued her, emitting a blue beam of light that caused severe burns to her right breast and clothing. She eventually sought hospitalization.

In the hospital, Mrs. L. shared her experience, leading to questioning by individuals she suspected were FBI agents. After her release, she was sent to a psychiatric clinic for evaluation, enduring extensive exams. Despite being cleared of mental health issues, a sheriff insisted she was "crazy" and responsible for the horse mutilation. The "strange people" continued to harass the L.'s at their home, asking repetitive questions. To escape this, they sold their property and moved to New Mexico. However, the harassment followed them, prompting them to move again, this time to property they owned in South Texas.

A friend of Project Stigma vouches for the integrity of the shop owner who heard Mrs. L.'s story and expressed puzzlement over the plaque. An investigation into the Arkansas location is underway. The article notes that if the matter proves to be a hoax, it will be reported as such. A request is made to send $1.00 for the Fall 1978 issue of STIGMATA.

A map is included showing "KNOWN ANIMAL MUTILATIONS - JANUARY THROUGH JUNE, 1978" across the United States, with symbols indicating single events and multiple events.

Consciousness, Media, and Pyramids

Dr. T. Galen Hieronymus contributes a section discussing "two different worlds": the physical/material world of the senses and the Astral world of thought and emotion. He explains that the Electro-Magnetic spectrum is part of the physical world, while the Astral world contains "emanations" from material things. Chakras are described as transducers between the physical senses and Astral manifestations, with some individuals able to "tune in" at will, referred to as "mediums" or "channels." Others use tools like pendulums or an "Eloptic Analyzer" to gain information, though misinterpretations are possible.

Scientists investigating Astral manifestations typically rely on physics, chemistry, and measuring devices, which can lead to misunderstandings when dealing with phenomena that don't fit their known models, such as Uri Gellar bending spoons. A chart is presented illustrating the correlation between PHYSICAL, ELECTRO-MAGNETIC, and ASTRAL phenomena, including types of sound, rays, and emanations.

Another section details the media through which these manifestations are transmitted (Gas-Solid-Liquid, Ether, Akasha or Nieonic) and their speeds of transmission (1100 ft/sec. in air, 186,000 miles/sec. through Ether, and Instantaneous through Akasha/Nieonic). The rate of attenuation with distance is given as 1/D² for physical and electromagnetic phenomena, and None for Astral emanations.

The article "Buying or building a pyramid?" discusses three electromagnetic planes of consciousness: PHYSICAL, MENTAL, and SPIRITUAL. It predicts that within 20 years, Earth's electromagnetic frequencies will shift from the physical to the mental plane, requiring a change in human consciousness. The pyramid is presented as a gift from the angel Hermes to help Mankind raise frequencies to the electron spin of the mental plane, acting as an electromagnetic antenna. Not all pyramids are effective; they must create a "vortex of light." The Cheops pyramid is noted for having three chambers corresponding to the three frequencies. A specific "pack-up-and-go" pyramid designed by Ken Killick is mentioned as having only spiritual frequencies, while another design (Illustration C) is claimed to work by incorporating all three planes.

Information is available from Dean Hardy regarding blueprints for building a pyramid that develops only the spiritual plane ($10 for indoor models) or all three planes ($20 for backyard models).

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue consistently explores themes of hidden knowledge, esoteric science, and unexplained phenomena. There is a strong emphasis on ancient wisdom (Akhenaton, Atlantis, pyramids) and its connection to modern concepts like chakras and consciousness. The magazine appears to promote a worldview that integrates spiritual and scientific inquiry, often presenting anecdotal evidence and witness testimonies as valid data. The editorial stance seems to be one of open investigation into the unknown, with a particular interest in UFOs, psychic phenomena, and alternative explanations for reality. The inclusion of contact information for "Project Stigma" and "The New Atlantean Journal" suggests an ongoing effort to document and disseminate information on these subjects.
