Teresa Yanaros: Finding Your Divine Frequency

This feature delves into the spiritual journey of Teresa Yanaros, a rising star in the alternative community. Her journey began with personal tragedies in 2016, leading her to embrace authenticity and share her insights publicly through her YouTube channel, "Divine Frequency." Yanaros discusses her exploration of topics like reincarnation and astral projection, her book "What Is Magic?", and the profound impact of music on her life, particularly after a mystical experience involving her deceased cousin. She also touches upon her experiences with the Rendlesham Forest Incident, where her father was stationed, and her subsequent exploration of metaphysical concepts. Yanaros's work includes analyzing symbolism in mainstream music videos, critiquing messages that promote sex and indulgence, and advocating for taking back control of one's mind. She recounts her experiences at the Contact In The Desert event and addresses accusations of being part of a cult.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores themes of the unexplained, ancient mysteries, spirituality, and alternative perspectives on reality. There is a clear editorial stance that encourages critical thinking and questioning mainstream narratives, as evidenced by the focus on potential hoaxes, hidden truths, and the exploration of consciousness and extraterrestrial phenomena. The publication aims to provide a platform for diverse voices within the alternative and paranormal communities.

This issue of Shadows Magazine, dated issue 05, focuses on paranormal and extraterrestrial topics, with the cover headline "DIVINE FREQUENCY." The issue features an in-depth interview with Teresa Yanaros, an author and speaker who shares her personal experiences with "star activations" and a profound extraterrestrial contact event. The magazine also includes a comprehensive "Top 10 Most Haunted Hotels" list, exploring various locations with reported paranormal activity across the globe. Additionally, the issue revisits the infamous Flatwoods Monster incident of 1952 and discusses the controversial Nazca mummies.

Teresa Yanaros: Divine Frequency and ET Contact

The issue prominently features Teresa Yanaros, who discusses her journey from a background in technical editing and journalism to becoming a speaker at conferences and an advocate for alternative media. She recounts her "star activations," which involved dreams of a shooting star hitting her forehead, leading to a feeling of being activated. Following a conference at Joshua Tree, Yanaros describes an ET contact experience. She recounts a dream of a dystopian world with black helicopters and men in black, which blurred the lines between dream and reality. This was followed by a more direct encounter where she and her partner were de-materialized and taken to a white circular room by five "Greys." These beings, described as blue-skinned and around five feet tall, communicated telepathically through a silver etheric ball, creating a sensation for Yanaros akin to a child in a room with PhD scientists.

Yanaros also offers advice for "truth seekers," emphasizing the importance of finding one's "bliss" and focusing on aligning with a universal source rather than succumbing to fear-based narratives often perpetuated by mainstream media. She stresses the need to balance acknowledging darkness with focusing on the light and inner work, such as finding one's mission and actualizing it to achieve divine frequency and balance.

Top 10 Most Haunted Hotels

The magazine presents a list of the top 10 most haunted hotels, detailing their spectral inhabitants and reported phenomena:

1. The Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, Colorado, USA: Known for inspiring Stephen King's "The Shining," this hotel has numerous reports of paranormal activity, including ghostly footsteps, disembodied voices, and apparitions in rooms like 217 and 428.
2. The Langham, London, England: This historic hotel is considered one of London's most haunted. Reported spirits include a German Prince, a ghostly butler, Emperor Napoleon III, and a Victorian doctor associated with Room 333. The "Bride" ghost is also a notable resident.
3. Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, Banff, Alberta, Canada: Dubbed a "castle in the Rockies," this luxurious hotel is reportedly haunted by "Sam the Bellman," who died in 1975 but continues to assist guests. Other phenomena include unexplained activity in haunted rooms.
4. The Emily Morgan Hotel, San Antonio, Texas, USA: Formerly a medical arts building and crematorium, this hotel is said to be haunted by the spirits of soldiers and former patients. Guests report feelings of being touched, weeping apparitions, and the sounds of hospital gurneys.
5. Russell Hotel, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia: Located in The Rocks, this hotel has a history of paranormal encounters, including disembodied voices, footsteps, and unexplained phenomena like shaking glasses.
6. Marshall House, Savannah, Georgia, USA: This former hospital and yellow fever ward is known for spectral activity, including disembodied voices, phantom pranksters, and the ghosts of soldiers and former owner Mary Marshall.
7. Dragsholm Slot, Hørve, Denmark: This Danish castle is said to be haunted by the ghost of Mary, Queen of Scots' third husband, along with approximately 100 other resident ghosts, including a "grey lady" and a "white lady."
8. The Mermaid Inn, Rye, East Sussex, England: This historic inn, a former smugglers' den, is reportedly haunted by a lady in white, a man walking through walls, and a maid killed by smugglers. Cold spots and bottles falling off shelves are also reported.
9. Queen Mary Hotel, Long Beach, California, USA: This floating hotel is a significant haunted location in America, with reports of lights turning on and off, apparitions, and the sounds of sailors crying for help from a tragic incident during WWII.
10. Airth Castle, Falkirk, Stirlingshire, Scotland: This castle is said to be haunted by the spirits of a nanny and two children who died in a fire in the 1800s, as well as a former maid and a groundsman.

The issue also includes five "Honourable Mentions": Bourbon Orleans (New Orleans, USA), Ballygally (Northern Ireland), Pensione Burchianti (Florence, Italy), Stay On Main (Los Angeles, USA), and Lord Milner Hotel (South Africa).

The Flatwoods Monster

The article "TOP SECRET FROM THE ARCHIVES: The Flatwoods Monster" recounts the events of September 12, 1952, in Flatwoods, West Virginia. Three children and their mother witnessed a bright light flash across the sky, which appeared to land on a local farmer's property. They encountered a towering, dark, colourless figure with a red head and a "pointed, hood-like shape." The figure emitted a hissing sound and glided towards the group, causing them to flee in terror. Reports also mention a strange oily substance ejected by the figure and a green, odorous mist in the area. Subsequent investigations found skidmarks and an "odd, gummy deposit." The article notes that this incident occurred during the 1952 UFO 'flap' and discusses a debunking attempt that suggested the witnesses saw aircraft navigation beacons and a barn owl.

Solving a Problem Like Maria: The Nazca Mummies

This section delves into the controversy surrounding the "Nazca mummies," bodies discovered near Nazca, Peru, which gained significant attention in 2017. Described as having elongated skulls, large eye sockets, three fingers, and three toes, these bodies have fueled speculation of extraterrestrial origin. The investigation involved Mexican journalist Jaime Maussan and the French researcher Thierry Jamin, president of the Inkari Institute. The precise location of the discovery has not been revealed, but it is in the same desolate area as the iconic Nazca Lines. The article highlights the blurring lines between fact, wishful thinking, and fiction surrounding the find, and notes that several internationally known figures became involved, including Maussan.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores themes of the paranormal, extraterrestrial encounters, and unexplained phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be open-minded and investigative, presenting accounts and theories without necessarily endorsing them as definitive fact. The inclusion of both personal experiences (Teresa Yanaros) and documented historical events (Flatwoods Monster, haunted hotels) suggests an interest in a wide spectrum of unexplained occurrences. The magazine also touches upon the role of alternative media and the challenges of discerning truth in a landscape often filled with sensationalism and hoaxes, as seen in the discussion of the Nazca mummies.

This issue of Shadows Magazine, issue 05, published in 2018, focuses on the controversial "Nazca Hoax" and related paranormal phenomena. The main articles delve into the investigation of alleged mummified bodies found in Peru, the potential for them to be fakes or genuine extraterrestrial or unknown human entities, and the surrounding media frenzy and scientific analysis.

Nazca Hoax Investigation

The issue details an investigation commissioned by Dei Mian of the Inkari Institute, involving ufologist José Jaime Maussan Flota, who initially implied the corpses had ET origins. To bring clarity to the debate, the Inkari Institute commissioned Zohar Global Group and Steve Mera to create a documentary film. Mera, described as an impartial 'honest broker,' was tasked with an investigation to prove or disprove the nature and origins of the apparently mummified bodies. Steve Mera enlisted Barry Fitzgerald, author and investigator, to accompany him as cameraman, and they departed from Manchester for South America on July 5, 2017.

The Peruvian government is noted as being very wary of such claims, as finders may not be professional archaeologists but treasure hunters. The location of the bodies was initially unknown to the government, as they were hidden by the finders. However, Steve and Barry were granted special access by an undisclosed party. Concerns were raised about the bodies' conditions, leading to deterioration.

Jaime Maussan was involved in publicizing the incident and assisting the Inkari Institute by supplying specialists. Specialists took samples for carbon dating, indicating the bodies were from between 240 and 450 AD. Samples were not taken from delicate appendages, and no public results were initially available.

The mummies varied in size, with some around 24 inches (61cm) and one named 'Maria' by Thierry Jamin, being considerably larger. The value placed on 'Maria' was $1 million, and $100,000 on the smaller examples, highlighting the temptation for smuggling.

Into the Hills

Steve and Barry, along with an interpreter, were taken into the mountains to view the bodies. They were warned not to identify the driver or vehicle and not to use cell phones. The journey involved significant altitude, causing nausea and headaches. They met with Thierry, who explained the media frenzy and government pressure he faced, including accusations of orchestrating a hoax, which he denied. The people who discovered the corpses had brought them to him, and over several weeks, he and specialists from the Gaia organization and Jaime Maussan examined them. Scans, X-rays, DNA, and carbon dating samples were taken. A couple of weeks later, the bodies were collected by unknown individuals.

Results from tests on the 'Maria' body included carbon dating and skeletal expert suggestions of anatomical anomalies. One body resembled a small child with an enlarged cranium and three fingers and three toes. Thierry was unable to provide the Peruvian authorities with the location of the bodies, as he did not want to compromise the identities of those who took them.

Steve and Barry were taken to a warehouse-like location where they examined the bodies for over four hours. The first body examined was approximately 14 inches (35cm) long, with a fish-like head and anatomically incorrect features, which Steve and Barry identified as a fake, a conclusion the people present agreed with. Subsequent bodies, around 24 inches (61cm), were intact, one presumed male, the other female. The female was supposedly pregnant, with three 'eggs' inside, raising questions about ET reproduction. X-rays of these bodies showed what appeared to be metal implants.

Ave Maria

The body of 'Maria', found in a foetal position, elicited a dramatic response. She had an elongated skull, three slender fingers, three toes, and unusual dermal ridges on her toes, described as being like fingerprints but in straight lines. Her teeth were estimated to be around 35 years old.

Diatomite and Preservation

The white powder covering the bodies was identified as diatomite, a naturally occurring substance used in water filtration and for DNA preservation. This substance helps slow down decomposition. The article debunks the theory that it was plaster or cement, noting that cement also contains diatomite but not in the same concentration. The application of diatomite may have been for preservation purposes, possibly applied post-death.

These bodies are not true mummies as they still contain internal organs. The presence of diatomite locally suggests the Andes region may have once been on the seabed. Steve took bone samples and diatomite powder for testing at UK universities.

The Conference

On July 10, Steve and Barry attended a conference in Lima arranged by the Inkari Institute to reveal the discoveries to the world's press. The conference, held at the SwissHotel, was initially met with denial of knowledge from hotel staff and a prohibition on filming. The event was moved to a larger venue due to the turnout. The conference included video clips and statements from Jaime Maussan. When questioned about authenticity, the response was that there were no indications of post-mortem modifications. However, the Peruvian government and the hotel seemed uncooperative. During Maussan's presentation, a loud thumping noise disrupted the event, which eventually stopped but upset attendees. This was speculated to be a deliberate attempt by the Peruvian government to downplay any controversial links, including extraterrestrial ones, or a connection to a previously unknown branch of the human race.

Statements from numerous scientists claiming the bodies were fakes were also presented, though many had not examined the bodies themselves. The article questions the nature of the smaller bodies, noting their lack of lungs and suggesting they might be amphibians if genuine. One theory is that the smaller bodies were made in the image of 'Maria' as a deity for her afterlife. The diatomite covering might also indicate veneration. 'Maria' was found in a tomb, suggesting she was regarded as special.

Speculation arose that the bodies' appearance, similar to grey aliens, suggested extraterrestrial origins, but they could also be genetic mutations. Elongated skulls might be due to cranial deformation practiced in infancy, a practice seen in some cultures for beauty or social status.

Author Spotlight: Brian Allan

Brian Allan is an author and editor of Phenomena magazine, with a keen interest in UFOs and the paranormal. He has written books on various subjects, including the Rosslyn Chapel.

View From The Carolinas: Where Is David Wilcock?

This section, written by Joe From The Carolinas, discusses the silence of conspiracy analyst David Wilcock following his alleged resignation letter from Gaia TV. Wilcock's letter, which alleged Luciferian practices at Gaia, was leaked and led to shockwaves and lawsuits. The author questions Wilcock's responsibility to his audience to set the record straight, especially given his past emphasis on synchronicity. The article lists several events that have occurred since Wilcock's resignation, including the leak of his letter, the announcement of a new host for Cosmic Disclosure on GAIA TV, a lawsuit from Gaia TV against crop circle researcher Patty Greer for reading Wilcock's letter, the emergence of the "Gaia Employee Movement" (GEM), and rumors of negotiations with streaming services.

The author questions whether Wilcock is practicing what he preached and speculates about potential gag orders or non-disclosure agreements. He also questions if the GEM movement was a Trojan horse to encourage people to read Wilcock's letter and if Wilcock was involved in a plot that put his friends at risk. The author concludes that Wilcock's silence is deliberate and suggests that the community should focus on other agents seeking truth and disclosure.

About Joe From The Carolinas

Joe From The Carolinas is described as a permaculture microfarmer, punk rock artist, critical thinker, and conspiracy analyst who conducts data-driven research. His band, Bound Society, recently released a single titled "The UFO Song."

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue heavily features themes of alleged extraterrestrial or unknown human origins, scientific investigation versus claims of hoaxes, and the role of media and government in controlling narratives. There's a strong focus on ufology and paranormal phenomena, with a critical examination of claims and a desire for verifiable evidence. The magazine appears to present controversial topics with a degree of skepticism while also exploring the possibilities, encouraging readers to question and seek truth. The editorial stance seems to lean towards investigating unexplained phenomena and challenging official narratives, particularly in the realm of UFOs and alleged ancient discoveries.

Paranormal Synchronism of Owls and Others

This article, by Steve Erdmann, explores the concept of paranormal synchronicity, particularly focusing on the role of owls in UFO sightings and abduction experiences. The author posits that owls may act as 'alarm clocks' to wake up experiencers to something significant happening, suggesting a deeper reality than commonly understood. The article references Mike Clelland's work, which links owls, synchronicities, and UFOs, suggesting they all have the potential to change people and play a similar role in altering perceptions.

Clelland's philosophy is illustrated through cases where owls connect with individuals, such as "Leslie," who reported being accompanied by a white owl for three years. This owl was observed in various mundane activities, like spying from a lamp post. In another instance, Leslie found an owl dead, and later, another owl appeared to have deliberately planned its own rescue, suggesting a level of intelligence or purpose.

The article also touches upon Leslie's ancestry, including a pre-birth connection involving aliens and a flying saucer. Her mother's experience led to Leslie being placed in an adoption service. Another "experiencer," Shonaugh Home, also reported owl sightings, UFO experiences, and shamanic episodes, linking them to her "dark night of the soul," divorce, meditation, and the use of psychedelics. Home used a ceremonial fan made from an owl's tail feathers, incorporating owl imagery into her spiritual practices.

The article concludes with a quote about the van disappearing with the owl suddenly, and Leslie feeling the owl had planned its rescue, reinforcing the idea of purposeful or orchestrated events involving owls in paranormal contexts.

Advertisements

The issue also contains advertisements for CTEMPLAR, an encrypted email service, and Pursuing X, a social media marketing service for investigators, authors, and truth seekers. There is also a mention of a TV series titled "The Mysterious Bodies of Peru: The Beginning."

This issue of Shadows Of Your Mind, titled "OWLS," explores the intriguing intersections between owl encounters, UFO sightings, paranormal experiences, and ancient mysteries. The magazine features articles by Mike Clelland, Steve Erdman, Barry Fitzgerald, and Rafael Videla Eissmann, alongside advertisements for related events and media.

Owls, Synchronicity, and UFO Abductions

The issue opens with an exploration of the work of Mike Clelland, whose book "The Messengers: Owls, Synchronicity and the UFO Abductee" is highlighted. Clelland posits that encounters with owls, particularly large white owls with striking blue eyes, share profound similarities with UFO abduction experiences. He cites cases like Shonaugh Home and Leslie, both adopted individuals with psychic abilities, who reported transformative experiences with a large white owl, mirroring aspects of UFO encounters. Clelland's research is driven by "clustered synchronicities" that suggest a dynamic reality beyond conventional understanding.

Clelland's own "confirmation event" on March 10, 2013, in Southern Utah, is detailed. He awoke to observe a large, structured object perched between hills, resembling a landed flying saucer. Later, he discovered a nearby "motionless white glow." Satellite imagery revealed nothing of the structure, which would have been 1.6 miles away. Inspired by a "psychic flash," Clelland mapped this event and a May 2010 incident near Dolores, Colorado, revealing they lay at opposite ends of a 231-mile straight line. The Dolores incident involved his friend Natascha experiencing a sudden fear and seeing a face, followed by Clelland's sensation of floating towards a "glowing mandala figure."

Neolithic Ireland and Paranormal Encounters

Steve Erdman contributes an article focusing on Barry Fitzgerald's exploration of ancient Neolithic sites in Ireland, moving from his background as a ghost hunter to a neolithic chamber explorer. Fitzgerald's project, "Legend Seekers," investigates Irish folklore and mythology, seeking origins for legends in the environment. His expedition to the island formerly known as St. Patrick's Purgatory (now called The Island of the Dead) in County Donegal is a central focus.

Fitzgerald describes the island's history, its division into a place of angels and a place for demons, and its role as a site for purging sins. He recounts an intense paranormal experience during a camping trip on the island, describing a palpable change in energy, a "washing sensation," and a vision of a "serpent's pit." This experience was so frightening that he considered retiring from paranormal investigations. He notes that 75% of Neolithic art in Ireland features concentric circles, spirals, and zigzag lines, often carved within passage chambers.

Ancient Mysteries and Potential Pre-Diluvian Civilizations

Rafael Videla Eissmann presents "The Curious Blocks of El Enladrillado," an article about a mysterious plateau in the Andes, Chile. El Enladrillado features over 200 megalithic stone blocks with striking 90° angles. Orthodox historiography suggests these are the result of glacial ice, but the site's anthropic characteristics raise questions about its origin and purpose, potentially pointing to a pre-Diluvian civilization that predates known indigenous cultures.

The article references historical accounts, including José Toribio Medina's "Los aborígenes de Chile" (1882), Tomás Guevara's "Chile prehispánico" (1929), and Ricardo E. Latcham's "Prehistoria chilena" (1936), none of which mention El Enladrillado. The author questions the lack of attention from archaeologists and historians, suggesting that a group fitting mainstream history may have existed prior to the indigenous peoples.

Other Content

The issue also includes advertisements for "Awakening: UFO & Conscious Life Expo" in Manchester, UK, featuring speakers like Linda Moulton Howe, Mike Bara, and David Childress. Another advertisement promotes "Coast to Coast AM with George Noory" and "Phenomena Magazine." An advertisement for "The Art of Erik Stitt" showcases his ET-inspired artwork. Footnotes provide references to sources and related concepts like Jungian synchronicity and the universal soul.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of Shadows Of Your Mind consistently explores themes of the unexplained, the paranormal, and the mysterious. It highlights the interconnectedness of seemingly disparate phenomena, such as owls and UFOs, ancient sites and supernatural experiences, and enigmatic geological formations and lost civilizations. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these subjects, presenting research and personal accounts that challenge conventional understanding of reality and history. The magazine encourages readers to investigate these phenomena further, as evidenced by the inclusion of books for sale and event promotions.

Title: EL ENLADRILLADO
Issue: 05
Publisher: Shadows Magazine
Country: UK
Document Type: Magazine Issue

This issue of Shadows Magazine delves into the mysteries of El Enladrillado, a unique plateau located in the Andes of Chile. The article explores the site's enigmatic stone formations, potential ancient origins, and its connection to UFO phenomena.

El Enladrillado: A Geological and Archaeological Enigma

The article begins by describing El Enladrillado, situated around 2184m above sea level in the Reserva Nacional Altos de Lircay, Maule Region, Chile. The plateau is triangular, measuring approximately 330m x 170m x 249m, and is composed of over 230 stone blocks. While a natural geological explanation involving ice action is proposed, the precise geometric alignment and pattern of the blocks challenge this theory, leading to speculation about artificial construction.

Since its reported 'discovery' in 1968, El Enladrillado has been interpreted as the remains of an unknown advanced primitive civilization or a UFO base, partly due to numerous reported UFO sightings in the area. However, the scientific explanation points to geological processes. The article questions why similar formations haven't been found elsewhere if ice is the sole cause.

Evidence of an Unknown Culture

Cristián Pérez de Arce, an early explorer of the site, reported the presence of a menhir (obelisk) in the center of the plateau, which has since disappeared. This menhir is compared to similar monoliths found across South America, suggesting potential astronomical or ritualistic functions. Additionally, a stone altar measuring 1.55m wide and 1.40m high has been identified, along with three heavily eroded formations resembling bird heads facing west, possibly related to sunset observations. Several other monoliths may form a pattern yet to be determined.

A petroglyph, characterized by a circle with a central point, was found in the nearby forest, possibly representing a solar symbol or a cross similar to the Southern Cross constellation.

A Lithic Map in the Andes

One of the most extraordinary discoveries at El Enladrillado is a stone block found along the path to Laguna del Alto, featuring a bas-relief map of the American continent. Discovered in January 2005, this lithic map shows geographical details such as the east coast of North America, the Florida Peninsula, and the Gulf of Mexico. Notably, Cuba is depicted as part of the Florida Peninsula, suggesting lower sea levels. The South American coastlines are also represented with some variations, and Tierra del Fuego is shown as connected to the mainland, without fiords or islands in Patagonia.

This map, measuring approximately 1.5m on a stone block about 25cm long and 20cm wide, raises profound questions about its creators: their knowledge, the time of its creation, and its presence in the Andean mountains. The article speculates that the map might predate the last global deluge, approximately 12,900 years ago, referencing Hans Hörbiger and Philipp Fauth's Glacial Cosmogony. Archeologists Alberto Medina Rojas, Ruperto Vargas Díaz, and Ciro Vergara Duplaquet have suggested possible human presence in the region around 12,000BC during the Pleistocene Period.

The map's representation, particularly the larger continental mass and absence of main islands, suggests pre-glacial antiquity, possibly predating the arrival of Asiatic immigrants to the Americas. The projection style is compared to the Mollweide or Hammer Aitoff cartographic projections, indicating a spherical representation of the planet.

The Forbidden History and Great Catastrophe

The article questions the conventional reconstruction of Pre-Columbian history in Chile and the Americas, suggesting that El Enladrillado challenges existing evolutionary and chronological theories. Based on archaeological evidence like 'piedras tacitas' (Cup-Marked Stones) and 'piedras horadadas' (pierced stones), the antiquity of El Enladrillado could extend to the Late Pleistocene, around 10,000BC.

Archaeologists' conclusions from sites like Altos de Vilches suggest that the inhabitants of this area may not have been indigenous groups like the Pehuenches or Mapuches, but rather an earlier culture, possibly the dolichocephalic-skull culture or Paleo-Americans, evidenced by findings at the ceremonial cemetery of Tutuquén dating back 10,570 years.

The text links the region's history to a planetary 'Great Catastrophe' around 12,900 years ago, known as the Younger Dryas Impact or Clovis Comet. This event, described in Andean myths and legends, caused a 'fire rain,' melted ice sheets, and led to widespread flooding. The article connects this to the destruction of primitive Tiahuanaco, a former sea port, which rose significantly due to geological processes. The sinking of Atlantis is also mentioned as a potential related event, causing continental upheaval and the Ice Age.

Historian José Toribio Medina's 1880 prediction of discovering sites showing evidence of an advanced race in Chile is cited, suggesting that El Enladrillado, the menhir, petroglyphs, and stone tools could be evidence of this pre-indigenous culture.

Geological and Catastrophic Explanations

The article discusses the geological period following the last Ice Age, the Post-Glacial or Alluvium era, marked by rising waters, floods, and avalanches. It posits that the sinking of Atlantis might have coincided with the rising of the Andean Highlands, leading to the destruction of Tiahuanaco. A 2007 Geophysical American Union study suggested an extraterrestrial body impact around 12,900 years ago, causing a 'fire rain' and melting ice sheets, leading to the Great Flood, which is echoed in global myths.

The text speculates that El Enladrillado might have also been a pre-diluvial port, similar to Tiahuanaco, and its inhabitants were forced to migrate. These early inhabitants are referred to as 'indios blancos' or White Indians, descendants of the mythical Viracochas, whose population dwindled over time.

Showguide and Events

The latter part of the magazine features a 'Showguide' section, highlighting various podcasts and radio shows relevant to the alternative community, including 'Intelligent Disclosure' with Richard Dolan, 'Earthfiles' with Linda Moulton Howe, 'Mysterious Forces' with Natasha Nyxx, 'White House UFO' with Grant Cameron, 'The Moore Show' with Kevin Moore, and 'Somewhere In The Skies Podcast' with Ryan Sprague.

An 'Events' section promotes 'Portal to Ascension,' a consciousness-raising gathering scheduled for October 5-7th at the Atrium Hotel in Irvine, California. The event aims to usher in full UFO disclosure and will feature speakers like Dr. Robert Schoch, Grant Cameron, and Billy Carson, covering topics such as UFO disclosure, ancient civilizations, and extraterrestrial races.

Dr. Irena Scott PhD: Inside The Lightning Ball

Another significant article features Dr. Irena Scott PhD and her book 'Inside The Lightning Ball: A scientific study of lifelong UFO experiencers.' Dr. Scott, with a background in physiology and extensive research experience, including work with the Defense Intelligence Agency, presents a scientific approach to UFO phenomena. She argues that science does not discredit UFOs, citing her own experiences and those of other scientists. The book includes detailed discussions with UFOlogists and researchers, covering topics like missing time, abductions, and strange lights.

Title: SHADOWS OF YOUR MIND
Issue: 05
Date: Not explicitly stated, but indicated as 'issue 05'.

This issue of Shadows of Your Mind delves into topics of extraterrestrial contact, spirit guides, and ancient alien theories, featuring an in-depth interview with Patrick De Haan and reviews of several relevant books.

Interview with Patrick De Haan: Listening to Spirit Guides

The main feature of this issue is an interview with Patrick De Haan, who claims to have conversations with extraterrestrials and spirit guides. De Haan explains that his channelling experience is not like hearing a voice, but rather receiving information as 'thought clumps' that arrive quickly and clearly. He distinguishes these incoming messages from his own thoughts, a realization that came to him later in life.

De Haan recounts how his journey into this subject was cemented after hearing an interview with Kevin Moore on 'The Moore Show' on YouTube, featuring De Haan himself. He was intrigued enough to seek out more interviews and discovered his book, 'The Alien Handbook'.

He shares two significant personal experiences that reinforced his belief in spirit guides. The first occurred when he found a book titled 'The Value in the Valley' by Iyanla Vanzant on a train. He felt this was a deliberate placement by his guardian angels. The second instance involved being guided by a bookstore clerk, whom he later realized was his guardian angel, to a specific section of the store.

De Haan explains that telepathic communication is much easier than learning a language, as it bypasses the need for reading and writing. He likens the development of this ability to learning a language, starting with hearing, then imitating, and finally forming complex sentences.

He also discusses his 'Committee,' composed of three principal guardian angel guides: Gabriana (the head), Herman, and Matthew. Information is typically received from them collectively, though individual responses are possible.

Regarding extraterrestrials, De Haan believes they are fascinated by humanity's tendency to focus on negatives and give little credit for advances. He dismisses the idea of ugly aliens taking over Earth, stating that beings with interstellar travel capability would not be deterred by human technology. He also touches upon the 'Prime Directive,' a concept of non-interference in the development of civilizations.

De Haan is working on a new book, 'The Alien Presence: Nothing To Fear,' which will expand on his first book and elaborate on the idea that there is nothing to fear from extraterrestrial visitors.

Book Reviews

This issue includes several book reviews focusing on themes of ancient aliens, UFOs, and Sasquatch:

  • Impossible Truths by Erich von Däniken: This review highlights von Däniken's continued search for unexplained artefacts and structures, suggesting that his work challenges conventional historical narratives.
  • Dunwich by Peter Levenda: A review of a novel that follows Professor Angell in a scenario involving alien abduction, government agents, and cultish lore, drawing parallels to H.P. Lovecraft.
  • Bigfoot Nation by David Hatcher Childress: This review discusses a book that compiles historical reports of Sasquatch encounters, emphasizing the consistency of eyewitness accounts and the lack of serious scientific investigation.
  • Pascagoula: The Closest Encounter by Calvin Parker & Philip Mantle: The review praises this book for Calvin Parker's firsthand account of the 1973 UFO incident, including new details revealed under hypnosis.
  • Aliens: Past, Present & Future by Ron Miller: This book is described as a beautifully illustrated exploration of cosmology and the perception of extraterrestrials, though the reviewer notes the author's guarded skepticism.
  • Hunt for the Skinwalker by Jeremy Corbell, George Knapp: This review focuses on Corbell's documentary, recommending it for those interested in Skinwalker Ranch, covering cattle mutilations and interviews with key figures involved in the investigations.

Ancient Aliens: Searching for the Impossible

This section explores the legacy of Swiss author Erich von Däniken, who brought the ancient alien hypothesis to mainstream public attention. It discusses his theory that ancient myths and technologies were influenced by extraterrestrial visitors who arrived thousands of years ago. The article highlights sites like the Nazca Lines in Peru and the sarcophagus lid of Lord K'inich Janaab Pakal in Mexico as evidence supporting this hypothesis. It also notes the criticism von Däniken faced from religious and scientific communities.

Lovecraft and 'Sekret Machines,' Grant Cameron on UFOs and consciousness, Dean McMurray as 'The Military Medium,' Bob Lazar and Jeremy Corbell discussing a film on S-4, and a feature on 'Antarctica: A Modern History.'

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores themes of the unexplained, including UFOs, extraterrestrial contact, ancient mysteries, and paranormal phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be open-minded and investigative, presenting various perspectives and research within these fields, as evidenced by the interview with Patrick De Haan and the book reviews that cover a range of related topics from scientific skepticism to belief in ancient astronaut theories. The publication encourages readers to explore these subjects further through provided websites and social media channels.

This issue of Shadows Of Your Mind magazine, issue 05, focuses on the theme of "Ancient Aliens" and related topics, featuring extensive interviews and articles on ufology and conspiracy theories.

Ancient Aliens with Erich von Däniken

The magazine features a significant portion dedicated to the theories of Erich von Däniken, who argues that humans have had contact with extraterrestrials throughout history. He suggests that these beings intervened in human evolution and genetics, leading to the construction of monumental structures like pyramids and temples, and that ancient myths and religious texts are references to these real beings and events. Von Däniken believes that extraterrestrials created humans in their own image, as reflected in various mythologies and "holy writings." He discusses how ancient cultures, such as those in Greece, India (Vedas), Tibet, and the Americas, show evidence of this extraterrestrial influence. He also touches upon the destruction of indigenous traditions by Conquistadors in South America, who he implies were unaware of the true nature of the 'gods' worshipped by the native populations.

Von Däniken addresses the concept of "original sin" within Christianity, finding it illogical and suggesting that the story of Jesus might be misinterpreted, and that "angels" were likely extraterrestrials. He also discusses the idea of a "Cosmic War" in space, referencing ancient myths where gods fought, and posits that this conflict might still be ongoing. Regarding the destiny of mankind, he believes humanity's purpose is to develop technology and spread intelligence throughout the universe, a concept he calls "Panspermia."

He asserts that extraterrestrials are currently observing humanity and are gradually preparing us to understand their presence and the true nature of our history. He cites the 1917 Fátima apparitions as an example of an extraterrestrial event that the public was not ready to comprehend. Von Däniken states that after decades of research, he is certain that extraterrestrials visited Earth in ancient times and promised to return.

Phil Schneider Declassified Documents

Another major section of the magazine details declassified FBI documents concerning Phil Schneider, a self-proclaimed whistleblower who claimed knowledge of deep underground military bases and alleged encounters with aliens. The article, written by "Joe from the Carolinas," Burke W., and Lisa G., highlights the release of these documents and the research team's efforts to verify Schneider's claims. The FBI documents reveal that Schneider had a history of mental illness, including schizophrenia, and had engaged in self-mutilation. He was investigated for possessing radioactive material, which he claimed to have obtained from an underground base, though the FBI traced it to a local tavern. The documents also mention that Schneider had a physician uncle who turned over some of the material to the FBI. The article raises concerns about potential public exposure to radioactive materials from Schneider's lectures and emphasizes the importance of investigating such claims with reason and logic.

The Travis Walton Story

The issue also includes an account of the Travis Walton abduction experience, described as one of the most credible in ufology history. The article recounts the events of November 5th, 1975, when Travis Walton, a twenty-two-year-old logger, was allegedly abducted by a UFO while working with six other loggers in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest in Arizona.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores themes of ancient extraterrestrial contact, conspiracy theories, and unexplained phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-minded investigation, encouraging readers to consider alternative explanations for historical events and scientific mysteries, while also emphasizing the need for critical thinking and evidence-based analysis, as exemplified by "Joe from the Carolinas" approach to ufology. The publication aims to challenge conventional narratives and present information that might be considered outside mainstream understanding.

This issue of Shadows Of Your Mind focuses on the enigmatic Travis Walton UFO abduction case and the complex relationship of astronomer Carl Sagan with the subject of UFOs. It presents a detailed account of Walton's alleged encounter and disappearance, alongside an exploration of Sagan's public skepticism and private fascination with extraterrestrial life.

The Travis Walton Abduction

The issue recounts the events of November 5, 1975, when Travis Walton and his logging crew encountered a UFO in the Arizona wilderness. Walton described the object as disc-shaped, approximately 15-20 feet in diameter, emitting a golden, yellowish light. Despite his crew's warnings, Walton approached the craft and was struck by a blue-green light, causing him to lose consciousness. He awoke in an unfamiliar room with three alien beings, described as about five feet tall with bulbous heads, large brown eyes, and hairless features. After a period of confinement and examination, he was returned to Earth, finding himself by the side of the road with a week's growth of beard, having been missing for five days.

The narrative details Walton's disorientation upon return and his brother-in-law's initial disbelief. The article highlights the difficulty of explaining such an experience, noting that "No one would ever believe them, and many still don't." The magazine also references the 1993 film "Fire in The Sky," based on Walton's story, noting its potential inaccuracies.

Carl Sagan: The Reluctant Skeptic

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to Carl Sagan, exploring his public persona as a skeptic of UFOs versus his private interests. The article posits that Sagan lived in two conflicted worlds: the scientific world governed by methodology and the hidden world of his passion for alien flying machines. While trained as an astronomer, Sagan's interests extended to exobiology and the search for extraterrestrial life.

He is described as a public spokesman for science and NASA's planetary efforts, but also as an unofficial government mouthpiece for denying UFOs, a contradiction noted by the author. The article traces Sagan's early exposure to UFO phenomena, including the Kenneth Arnold sighting and the Roswell incident, which occurred when he was 12. It quotes biographer William Poundstone, stating that Sagan "sincerely believed in UFOs - not as swamp gas, not as mass hysteria, but as alien spacecraft visiting the Earth."

The text details Sagan's personal involvement, including a letter he wrote to the Secretary of State in 1952 inquiring about government plans for dealing with UFOs and potential extraterrestrial contact. It suggests that Sagan made a calculated choice to conform to the prevailing scientific and governmental stance of denial to advance his career.

Sagan's collaboration with Iosif S. Shklovskii on the book "Intelligent Life in the Universe" is highlighted as a pivotal moment in his career. The article also touches upon Sagan's lobbying for lights on the Viking Mars landers and his suggestions regarding the moons of Mars, implying that evidence of intelligent manipulation might have been overlooked or suppressed.

The author suggests that Sagan's public denial of UFOs was a form of self-sacrifice for the "greater good" and a way to navigate the dogmatic scientific establishment. His famous refrain, "Yes, there is intelligent life out there in the depths of the Universe... but they cannot get here. Relativity physics won't allow it. They live too far away," is presented as a testament to his denial and a means of reassuring the public.

The Condon Report and Scientific Dogma

The issue discusses Sagan's involvement in the 1966 Project Blue Book review, which resulted in the "Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects" (the Condon Report). The report is characterized as a "whitewash" that dismissed many significant UFO cases and doubted the observational abilities of witnesses. The article criticizes the report's methodology and conclusions, suggesting it was predetermined to debunk UFO phenomena.

It is argued that Sagan, like other scientists, adhered to a strict scientific dogma that prevented him from openly accepting the possibility of UFOs being extraterrestrial spacecraft. The article posits that Sagan was a "victim of the times," pushed into playing along with a "false narrative" of denial and censorship.

Historical UFO Incidents

Beyond the Walton case, the magazine briefly mentions other significant UFO events, including the 1952 White House buzzing incident and the 1947 Roswell incident. These events are presented as part of a historical pattern of UFO sightings and official responses.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue strongly implies a critical stance towards official explanations of UFO phenomena, suggesting a pattern of denial, suppression, and adherence to scientific dogma over objective evidence. The narrative surrounding Travis Walton's abduction is presented as a compelling case that challenges conventional explanations. The exploration of Carl Sagan's career highlights the tension between scientific rigor and the potential for groundbreaking discoveries, suggesting that societal pressures and institutional dogmas can hinder the pursuit of truth. The magazine appears to advocate for a more open-minded approach to investigating UFOs, questioning the "false narrative" that has historically surrounded the topic.

Title: AMITYVILLE AND BEYOND

Issue: 05

Publisher: SHADOWS OF YOUR MIND

Date: January 2016 (estimated based on issue number and content context)

Content Focus: This issue of Shadows of Your Mind magazine explores the intersection of poltergeist activity, UFOs, and alien encounters, with a particular focus on the 'Alien Poltergeist' theory. It features investigative articles, witness testimonies, and discussions on paranormal phenomena.

Attack of the Alien Poltergeist

The lead article, "Attack of the Alien Poltergeist," by Timothy Green Beckley, posits that not all "angry spirits" are earthbound souls. Instead, it suggests that some poltergeists might be dimensional, shapeshifting entities akin to aliens that can enter and exit our environment, causing disruption. Beckley contrasts this with traditional ghost theories, often influenced by Hollywood portrayals like 'The Exorcist,' and highlights the work of poltergeist researchers Ed and Lorraine Warren. He introduces the idea that some phenomena attributed to poltergeists could be misidentified UFOs.

The Strangest UFO 'Poltergeist' Ever Encountered

This section details the extraordinary experience of Mickie Eckert and her friend Kathy Echard on July 22, 1978, while driving on Interstate 80 near the Wyoming border in Nebraska. Initially mistaking lights for an accident, they soon observed three round circles hovering above the ground. These lights then transformed into two sports cars, followed by the appearance of numerous trucks that seemed to be UFOs hovering six feet off the ground. The vehicle was then pushed forward by an unseen force. The account is presented as a unique case that challenges conventional UFO report patterns.

#### The Journey and Encounters

Eckert and Echard, seeking answers, attended a UFO conference where Mickie was introduced to Timothy Green Beckley. She recounted how, after seeing the lights, they drove away and later encountered two trucks that appeared out of thin air. These trucks, described as dome-shaped, 3-sided ships, were hovering and moving along the freeway. The car they were in was pushed forward about 20 feet. Despite their fear, they got out to investigate but found no explanation. Later, they entered Evansville, Wyoming, finding the entire city dark and closed. Two ships, one orange and one yellowish-white, were seen hanging in the air. As they continued, the car lost power and died completely. A light entered the car, and Mickie spoke to it. Subsequently, they saw numerous trucks, described as a "caravan of big lights," and one truck stopped directly in front of them. The car was again pushed forward. They then encountered another car that pulled up behind them.

#### Further Strange Events

After being pushed forward by an unknown force, the girls got out of their car again. They then saw a man who asked them where they were headed. They stated they were going to Chicago. The man seemed unaware of their terrifying experience. They stopped at a truck stop for coffee, and upon returning to their motel, a small, teeny light flittered around the room, indicating they had not escaped the strange phenomena.

#### The 'Boyer' Family Case

Another case discussed involves the "Boyer" family of New Jersey, who reported a number of bizarre occurrences. These included sightings of strange men in the woods, disembodied voices, and physical encounters. One incident described by Mrs. Boyer involved seeing a figure in the living room that disappeared through the wall. The article notes the appearance of "Cryptids" and "Ultra-Terrestrials" in conjunction with paranormal events.

#### Hypnosis and Personality Shifts

Under hypnosis, Mickie Eckert drew a skeleton-type being instead of a truck when asked to sketch what she had seen. This led to speculation about whether their thinking process had been altered. The experience also resulted in a significant shift in the friendship between Mickie and Kathy, who had been best friends for 17 years but began speaking only once a week. Mickie expressed a desire for further hypnosis to understand the events. The article notes that the police dismissed their experience as "swamp gas."

#### Expert Opinion

John De Herrera, who interrogated the witnesses multiple times for approximately twelve hours, attested to the consistency and detail of their accounts, finding it difficult to believe they could fabricate such a story. He suggests that dismissing such accounts is akin to government agencies hiding the existence of UFOs.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue strongly leans towards the idea that some paranormal phenomena, particularly poltergeist activity, may have extraterrestrial origins. The magazine encourages readers to consider explanations beyond conventional ghost lore and to investigate UFOlogy. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-mindedness towards unusual claims and a critical view of official dismissals of UFO sightings. The emphasis is on the strangeness and the potential for a reality far more bizarre than commonly perceived, as suggested by the title "We live on a strange planet in a very bizarre universe."
