Magazine Overview

Issue: December 1992
Publisher: Phenomenon Research Association (PRA)
Country: United Kingdom
Language: English

This issue of the <OVNI> newsletter from the Phenomenon Research Association (PRA) covers a range of topics related to UFOs, crop circles, and future predictions, reflecting on the events of 1992 and looking ahead to 1993.

UFO Reports and Investigations

The year 1992 saw an increase in UFO reports, including a significant sighting over the M1 on April 11th. The PRA noted a pattern of a large, slow-moving craft frequently reported across the Midlands and more recently in Eastern Scotland. The shape was described as more triangular than oval, reminiscent of the 'Belgian Flap' sightings. Unsubstantiated reports from the USA linked this object to 'Grays' aliens, though the PRA stresses this is speculation.

In December, the Shetland Islands experienced a flurry of activity with 17 independent reports of a UFO. Witnesses described a large, white object travelling low and very fast, accompanied by smaller lights, with some likening it to a plane on fire or a long tail of colours. This coincided with reports of a secret American spy plane, potentially the successor to the SR-71 Blackbird, capable of speeds up to 5,500 mph (Mach 8).

A separate report from the Langley Mill area on December 1st mentioned a balloon-shaped silver object, which could have been an old barrage balloon or a UFO observation craft.

The Crop Circle Mystery

The PRA also investigated the Crop Circle phenomenon. They confirmed that simple crop circles have existed for at least a hundred years, with old farmers recollecting seeing them in their childhood. However, the more complicated patterns that emerged in recent years are considered by the PRA to be the result of an intelligence, whether human or otherwise, as they cannot be explained by natural phenomena.

The PRA investigated crop circles near Mansfield, with assistance from Mark Haywood and Karen Douglas. A circle at Husbands Bosworth, Leics., was investigated by Garry Stapleton and Omar Fowler, where a high-frequency radiation source was detected using Paul Foster's 'Microdet' instrument. A similar source was found at Mansfield Woodhouse.

The issue features a photograph of a remarkable crop circle formation near Silbury Hill, Wiltshire, taken by 'Busty' Taylor. This formation was visible for only about 24 hours before the farmer harvested the crop, and the PRA notes its complicated design speaks for itself.

Jeff Whitear contributes his thoughts on the intelligence angle behind crop circles, suggesting they are messages from an alien intelligence formed by our own spiritual world, linked to a growing global unrest caused by increasing earth energy.

Future Predictions and Astrological Insights

The newsletter includes insights into future expectations for 1993. Bob Dean, speaking at the Quest International Conference in Leeds, warned of frightening future events that would shake the world, urging people to arm themselves with knowledge.

David Icke, speaking in Nottingham, discussed the impending link between historical and current events, predicting the breakup of large countries, increased social unrest, crime, and extreme weather conditions. He attributed these changes not to the 'greenhouse effect' but to a fundamental shift in the nature of sub-atomic energy.

Leonie Starr, an astrologer, provided an exclusive PRA interview discussing major transformations occurring globally. She highlighted the influence of Pluto in Scorpio, signifying transformation and upheaval, and the combined energies of Uranus ('wakener') and Neptune ('illusion', 'deception') contributing to mystery and change. Starr noted that these influences began years ago and would build to a peak around February 1st.

Starr also discussed Capricorn's influence on the material world, relating it to money, property, and security, and noted that Britain, with its Capricornian characteristics, was undergoing significant changes. She predicted a breakdown of Capricornian structures and a painful but necessary process of shedding the old to make way for the new, likening it to a Phoenix rising from the ashes.

Other Features and Group Activities

An interview with Leonie Starr, conducted on October 29th, 1992, at the Stanley Club, where she met with Omar Fowler and 'Busty' Taylor, is presented. Starr expressed concern over the future world view and discussed astrological aspects, including Pluto's transformation in Scorpio and the combined effects of Uranus and Neptune.

The issue also mentions a TV show, "The Time and The Place," featuring Omar Fowler, which led to enquiries about abduction and close-contact cases. A Mr Terry T. reported astounding experiences involving contact with aliens and travel in their craft, which were corroborated by his wife and son. Further interviews with other close contactees, including Linda Jones, are planned.

The PRA is adopting a Fax communication line in January to enhance its information gathering on UFO and Crop Circle subjects. There will be no meeting in December, with the next one scheduled for late January.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the unexplained phenomena of UFOs and Crop Circles, and the anticipation of significant global changes driven by both extraterrestrial influences and astrological forces. The PRA's stance appears to be one of open investigation into these subjects, acknowledging the possibility of intelligent extraterrestrial life and profound shifts in societal structures and the natural world. The editorial tone is one of reporting on ongoing investigations, sharing expert opinions, and encouraging members to engage with the material and contribute their own observations and discussions.

The issue concludes with a "Happy Xmas" message from the Editor, looking forward to the next year of meetings and discussions.
