Nearly everyone has heard of Astral Travel or Out of Body Experience. Many people have claimed to have experienced OOBE during Near Death Experiences while some claim to travel out of body randomly without traumatic prelude. Others believe that they astral travel each night while they are asleep although they rarely have waking cognizance of where they have been or what they have done. Those who ascribe to Seven Ray Astrology believe that each of us leaves our bodies nightly to rise to the Astral Plane where we do Divinely inspired work according to a personal Astral Ray assigned to our Souls. Does this same principal apply to alien abductions and Close Encounters? There has been serious study of the UFO phenomena since 1947 and it seems to date we are no closer to a solution. Research into UFO's and other psi incidences has come up with a possible explanation for the reason behind such experiences. Using a spectrum scale to demonstrate the different phases of consciousness ranging from objective through subjective reality and everything that lies in between, some researchers postulate that experiences such as Close Encounters, Out-Of-Body Experience, timeslips and pre-cognitive visions occur during what is called "QUASI-CONSCIOUSNESS." It is important to note that in the case of UFO's, if alien intelligence does exist it is not likely to use primitive technology to reach us but rather some form of consciousness... alien consciousness making contact by way of the human mind.
The QUASI-CONSCIOUSNESS phase lies in the upper half of the spectrum scale between objective reality and subjective reality. It is believed that the objective and subjective reality extremes are subject to interference from the other parts of the spectrum. For example, an objective factor such as a loud noise can affect a sleeper by making an appearance in another form during a dream. In lucid dreaming, the dreamer is aware that he is dreaming and maintains some degree of control of the dream imagery that has been produced by the loud noise from the objective environment. During QUASI-CONSCIOUSNESS however, rather than the objective information coming in from the outside manipulating the subjective dream reality, the reverse occurs and the subjective information manipulates what is experienced as objective reality. In some research circles this is known as the "OZ Factor." Enter Quantum Physics where reality is based upon what one's consciousness decides it should be! Remember, what we all perceive of the outside world is based largely upon what our brains interpret from incoming signals so each individual who has an OZ experience will shape images to fit personal concepts of aliens or whatever the experience dictates.
In the cases of UFO/alien contact, the witness often emerges feeling confused mainly about the length of time the encounter lasted. Is the loss or lapse of time a result of the OZ factor? It is reasonable to consider that some degree of the OZ Factor such as memory loss and time lapse is at play. In fact, memories retrieved during hypnosis sessions more than often reflect that some type of a message transfer has taken place during the lost time period. In a majority of cases, the witness is not aware of such a transfer when it actually takes place because it is beyond his/her normal conscious awareness.
All of this leads one to question what is the most important factor of UFO/alien contact - is it the actual contact/abduction OR the transference of a message?
In the meantime --- we're off to the see the Wizard!
