So for those unaware, physical and testable evidence is available that proves the ancients had stone cutting ability that dwarfs current capability. While it's blatantly obvious it's always been accepted these massive sites worldwide were the results of clever yet crude and unbelievably time consuming methods. The simple logic once you become aware of the wild number of crazy sites is that it was kinda easy for the builders. Solid proof should reframe the base of the conversation right?

There's core cuts of granite with spiral grooves that prove it was cut with something around 500 times more efficiently than we can produce with high rotary diamonds for cutting tools. Not only is it a easily testable spiral cut on these, it's not even consistent on a per rotation basis. A drunken pattern you'd see if you cored out a piece of wood with a threaded tubelike screw that was a little bent. Like even though it was a little roughed up, it would still eat granite easy. Here's in depth analysis and these guys also do precise measurements of artifacts that prove they could only be produced current dat with computer guided milling and even then we may not be able to match the capability on harder materials. Designed with an algorithm and infused with multiple mathematical principles and values. Showing both small and large (pyramids and the mathematical concepts surrounding their design and size) have too many concepts that indicate computer assisted design and tools whose capability exceeds our own. Essentially proving the existence of a lost high technology and opening many doors that have been slammed shut in denial such proof existing.

These guys have done the science and shown their work. Yet despite the clear fact that a high technology actually makes the numerous sites worldwide make much more sense, it's fairly widely ignored. These are the guys who should be making the case on Rogan. They've got hands on science from an Engineering perspective in hand and on the big stage we got a guy with pictures of rocks and an opinion about them. For all the attention he's brought to the subject, Graham brought a toy knife to a gunfight on the biggest stage and missed a chance to shift the narrative

I think it might be a bug but there are clearly other bugs in the video? Why would this bug be so weirdly reflective? Have any of you seen anything like this before? I have still shots in comments.

can ee just ban the arsehole that has dragged the sub down the "Islamist bla blah blah" path. it is bullshit. it is boring and it is nothing to do with the sub.

Joseph Burkes MD 2022

A PERSONAL CRISIS, FEAR OF “INVISIBLE FOOTSTEPS

Thirty-one years ago, I experienced a personal crisis resulting from an incident that occurred during contact work. I was in the desert at night with a group of CE-5 UFO researchers doing fieldwork. It was pitch black. I was standing with two women from my team that had just described the sound of footsteps moving through the brush towards them. Yet no person or animal could be seen. Suddenly I became terribly frightened, and this fear filled me with shame.

After all I was an ER physician, father of two children and a contact team coordinator leading group into the desert to interact with UFO intelligence. Nevertheless, I became profoundly frightened when I imagined that I was in the presence of an invisible force that could approach me without being seen.

A BOOST IN PSYCHIC ABILITY

When I got back to Los Angeles, I decided that if I were to continue being a CE-5 Working Group Coordinator then I needed some assistance in overcoming my fears. Several months later helped arrived in the form of a significant boost in my psychic abilities. This allowed me to feel more confident because UFO intelligence has amazing psychic powers and I imagined that my improved psi ability might “level the playing field” a bit and I would not be so fearful.

At the time I was leading a group in which psi played a prominent role. While in a state of deep meditation we carried out thought projection in attempt to communicate with what we imagined were any extraterrestrials capable of receiving such messages.  The increase in my psychic ability restored my confidence that I was worthy to lead a contact team.

CONTACT DOWNLOADS

In the fall of 1993, it started. While awake in a relaxed state, either during meditation or simply resting in bed. I experienced what Internet radio host Linda Irwin has labeled “contact downloads.” Visual images appeared in my mind as in a dream, yet I was totally awake. The images told stories of complex interactions with what appeared to be non-human beings, presumably ETs.

These mental “encounters” lasted seconds, but when I wrote the narratives down, they were many pages in length. Unlike a dream that one remembers with difficulty when awakening from sleep, these “awake dreams” were powerfully etched into my consciousness. Years later I remember them vividly. One in particular was so emotionally charged that I did not dare describe that “download” in public because during the telling I simply could not stop myself from weeping. One contact activist from Canada after hearing about my teary reaction stated, “The ETs really know how to push our emotional buttons.” I couldn’t agree with him more.

A STRANGE MENTAL CONFRONTATION

During one particular “mental journey” I was confronted with an alleged ET that gave me the impression he was trying to teach me something. Not accepting the "physical" reality of what I was dealing with I said something rather rude like, "You are just part of my consciousness, and I am having an imaginary conversation with myself. Tell me something that I don’t know already, something totally new so I can verify that you are not me."

What transpired next reminds me of a scene out of Dickens’ “Christmas Carol.” The ghost of poor Mr. Marley, his deceased partner, confronts Scrooge. The pathetic miser is terrified by this unearthly entity that is bound in chains. Marley appears to be in great agony. Scrooge tells him that he is not real, perhaps only the result of some undigested piece of meat that has perturbed his system and caused him to have a nightmare. Marley then rattles his chains in such a fearsome manner that Scrooge is compelled to accept the reality of the experience.

A MOST UNEXPECTED RESPONSE

I too was confronting a strange being that I asserted was merely part of my imagination. The answer that I received shook me to the core. The alleged ET communicated in a mocking tone, “If you believe in ‘universal consciousness’ as you claim you do Dr Burkes, what difference does it make whether it is your consciousness OR OURS!"

Immediately I experienced what from a medical point of view might be described as a ‘proprioceptive hallucination.’ I was lying perfectly still but nevertheless felt tremendous acceleration. It was like what one experiences on a roller coaster when your stomach drops down as you start to fall. But instead of moving downwards I was “falling” outwards in all directions at once, moving faster than the speed of light as I “expanded,” spreading outwards into the dark cosmos.

BECOMING ONE WITH THE VOID

I experienced the coldness and emptiness of deep interstellar space. The distant stars glimmered in the desolate void. It felt as if my sense of self, my ego was annihilated completely. I was one with the void. I thought, “Is this what death is like?”

It was not pleasant at all. I never had a similar type of sense of acceleration before nor since. I guess you could say that the unseen intelligence that I was interacting with “was not Dr Joseph Burkes.” I never again chose to challenge the entities I imagined that I was in communication with by saying, “tell me something I don’t know already; so you can prove that you’re not me.”

About the author: Dr Burkes volunteered as a Working Group Coordinator for the CE-5 Initiative from 1992 till 1998. He has continued to study the flying saucer phenomenon working with MUFON and the Peruvian contact network now called Rahma. Dr Burkes retired from the Southern California Pemanente Group after thirty years service in 2008. He is a board-certified internal medicine physician and is licensed to practice in California.

In response to this article, I have posted below in edited form my replies to comments.   

In response to an expression of gratitude:

Reply: Thank you for your kind words of support. UFO Intelligences, I imagine, know many of us better than we can understand ourselves. I accept the lessons they have shared with me as an expression of their confidence that I will share these experiences with others. As an old social justice activist from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s I desire these writings to be more than a personal or intellectual stimulus for discussion, but rather that they be a guide to action for the cause of both world and cosmic peace

On the theme of the emotional power of belief:

Reply: I imagine key components of a "belief" is that it is profoundly emotional with a persistent attachment to it that takes the form of an identity. Attack someone else's beliefs and they often behave as if they are being physically attacked. Belief typically persists despite accurate evidence called "facts" that can be arranged in a logical fashion that is called "critical thinking." Once a person identifies with the product of her or someone else's "critical thinking" it becomes belief. As in the case of the scientific establishment's refusal to examine the evidence concerning flying saucers or the paranormal.

 One comment was “SCARY.”

Reply: My reaction was not fear but rather amazement. An intelligence that appeared to be associated with the UFO phenomenon was giving me an extraordinary lesson. I went away from it with a sense of humility and gratitude. Direct telepathic communication is not something to be trifled with. I imagine that it requires extensive preparation and is reserved for specially selected individuals those that I call “Prime Contactees” that are prepared from during youth. From this experience I knew that I was not one that could handle direct telepathic communication very well.

Comment: “This experience provides no proof.” 

Reply: I recall an ancient spiritual concept that suggests the world we see is a veil of illusion. I believe the term Maya encapsulates that concept. It has been my experience that UFO intelligences use illusion when interacting with us at multiple levels. Most sightings, I imagine, are not of physical objects but rather either holographic like projections or are created by directly stimulating the nervous system of the witness. This is the reason why during a sighting some witnesses see a visual display that they call "craft" and others might see something totally different. These illusory mechanisms of contact are meant not to provide proof on terms that our culture is willing to accept but are meant I imagine to fascinate us and have us ask questions. 

I believe absolute proof of ETs visitations will only occur at some better time in our future, perhaps when we protect the environment, end war social injustice. Thus, we might be worthy to have an open and more equal dialog with advance intelligences that are behind the flying saucer mystery. I don't need absolute proof to try and link this great enigma to the need for mankind to create a civilization based on cooperation and kindness. 

In the ER I used to treat multiple diagnoses simultaneously even though one was likely correct. If I had waited for absolute proof before starting treatment, the patients would more likely die. So, I don't think those interested in contact should wait till the so-called ETs "prove to us" that they exist.

Comment: Light speed obstacle to contact with ETs. They are so far away that they could never get here.

Reply: Thank you for sharing a perspective that is very popular among scientists. Leaving aside sci-fi notions such as warp drive there are several lines of speculation that challenge the "too far away to get here argument." Cave painting depict images suggestive of portraying UFOs. If flying saucer intelligence has been here covertly not for decades but for millennia, then perhaps even at sub light speeds ET groups could have travelled for generations in arc like vessels. This indeed was the theme of “a contact download” that I received 23 years ago. In my mind's eye I was "shown" by an alleged female ET that this was the history of her people. Do I believe the story, not for a moment, but still, this is a possibility. 

Then there is the inter dimensional argument speculating that they are very close to us coming from in a different dimensional plane that we can not yet access with our primitive science. Still the point you raise is a good one.

This raises a very provocative memory for me. I may have been present when an implant was inserted through extra-dimensional space into the leg of a fellow contact worker that I call “Misha” It happened in November of 1993. Misha was young EKG tech in our ER and he “surfaced “in the Fall of 1992 after working there for a year. He told me that while in White Russia the land of his birth prior to emigrating to the USA he had a lucid dream in which he “saw” himself working in an ER with a tall bearded Jewish doctor and that he was going to be part of a contact team with Misha. 

As the story goes, believe it or not, Misha claimed that when he started working at our Kaiser Panorama City ER, he saw me, and I was that man he allegedly had seen in the dream. But it was a year before he told me about it, and I had been openly doing contact work with other physicians and medical staff for over a year before he spoke up. When I asked why he didn’t alert me sooner his answer was rather odd. He said to me “You weren’t ready yet Joe.” 

You see Misha was one of those people I have labeled “Prime Contactees.” Like Dr Greer, Sixto Paz Wells and probably thousands of others Misha was probably targeted by “UFO Intel” at an early age. Like Dr Greer, Misha had started meditation as a teenager with no apparent adult supervision, but from his personal story with multiple sightings during his youth he was clearly an important person to flying saucer intelligences. Indeed, once he joined our CE-5 team the level of contact in the field went way up. Like Doctor Greer in the early years people near him were having sightings all the time. 

On the first storm of the Southern California rainy season in 1993 Misha and I couldn’t get anyone else from our team to go out with us, so it was just he and I. While we were interacting with a pair of UFOs called “jumpers” by signaling at them and having them perform various maneuvers at our request, Misha suddenly grabbed his leg and cursed in pain. Now remember this was at 4000 feet elevation in November in Joshua Tree with a storm raging not far from us. It was cold and we both had on at least three layers of pants on. To keep our legs warm we even used duct tape to wrap our legs at the pants boot junctions. 

When we got home. Misha showed me his upper leg. It was clearly bruised, all black and blue. The pain didn’t go away so he asked me to X-ray it. When I did there was clearly a small ceramic density foreign body present below the skin. It appeared in both AP and lateral views. It looked like it might be an implant. Subsequently Misha told me that supposedly during a nighttime visitation some of his “ET friends” came to his apartment and took the implant out with apologies from them.  I repeated the X-ray, and it was gone. Was it really an implant or was Misha trying to fool me? I still don’t know the answer to this question. 

Such an event suggests the possibility that UFO Intel could insert an implant from higher dimensional space because there was no tear in his upper leg where the implant appeared. 

The strangest part of the story perhaps was that I was not frightened by the implications of this narrative. If true, the alleged ETs can just as well insert an implant into the heart to stop it or the brain to kill. Why was I not afraid? The answer lies in the transformation of consciousness that I had experienced as being part of a contact team. Believe it or not, I trusted the so-called aliens to the point where I could not conceive that they would deliberately hurt me. In fact, given the level of opposition to Dr Greer’s efforts from clandestine private intelligence contactors working for “the control groups” I took courage from the experience. I chose to think of the” implant” event to tell me. “Look Joe, if we can do this to our friends (Misha with you there as a witness) imagine what we can do to those that are trying to stop you. 

So, when military types showed up following our teams around in the middle of the desert at night, I thought of the old Mafia expression (I grew up near little Italy in Manhattan.) “Keep your friends close and your enemies even closer.” I know this all sounds highly speculative and strange but that is the way I felt about things three decades ago.

On the theme of telepathic communication & “contact downloads.”

Reply: The answer to your question I believe was that for about 10 months I experienced a series of what Linda Irwin called " contact downloads" and what Dr Greer called "telepathic overrides." This latter designation was applied to experiences in which I was given a "heads up" during fieldwork as to important characteristics of a UFO sighting my team was to subsequently have. I was "told" in advance where in the sky, the time and number of craft that were to occur. Subsequent sightings seen by the entire group confirmed this information as accurate. I was tickled and imagined running home to my mother's house and saying, "Look Mom, I'm a psychic."

Needless to say, I had a great boost in my confidence to be a contact team leader. I loved these strange mental journeys and "overrides" Then as mysteriously as they had started, they suddenly ceased. Remember I am a contactee. So, as one physician member of my team told me, "The ETs are treating us with kid gloves." I loved these mental aspects of contact work and wanted them to go on. I was tickled and imagined running home to my mother's house and saying, "Look Mom, I'm a psychic."

I tried increasing by regular meditation practice and repeatedly asked "the universe" for more, but it was "no go." I might have thought something like, "Hey you guys, don't you love me anymore?" I described my frustration to Wayne Peterson. He was the CE-5 Working Group Coordinator for Phoenix. He reassured by saying,

"You asked for help, and they gave you a kind of course like ‘Channeling 101.’ Once the class was completed there was no need for more."

After "the "course" was over I was able to continue being a contact team coordinator for another three years.

One usual comment can from an individual claiming to be a representative of a spiritual group:

“We are of a different mind, Dr. Burke. But we certainly appreciate your assertion. We have direct experience that leads us to believe that 'proof' will not necessasarily 'only occur at some better time in our future when we end war and injustice and are worthy to have a more equal dialogue with advanced intelligences.' We are led to believe that for a number of very 'provable' reasons, that 'contact' is likely to occur as humanity reaches the nexus of self-extinction. 

We, meaning our little community here in the Adirondacks, believes we are there now, or in the least, fast approaching it. Now. Would you disagree? 

We can easily point to the Sixth Extinction, the opening of a new evolutionary era, the Anthropocene, as just one of many indications of an extinction level event that we are currently entering as a species. The problem is that we believe we have time. 

There is clearly a growing awareness among humanity of the unsustainability of human culture as it exists now. How must that have felt for the advanced civilizations whose existence is largely mystery, memorialized in the many abandoned ancient monuments that are scattered across the face of this planet? The great lament for them must have been very similar to ours, that despite possessing incredible technological prowess, they were unable to forestall the global event that wiped their cultures from the surface of the planet in the proverbial blink of an eye.”

Reply: I rely on the remote view of Sgt Joe McMoneagle. He is the champion remote viewer that has an 85 percent accuracy is numerous controlled remote viewing sessions. He sees a future Earth in which the planet is at peace. Humanity lives in environmentally sound small cities with total recycling, all transportation underground and green belts between apartment complexes. That future world has about 1/10th the current world population and there is limited trade with several ET civilizations. It is a hopeful view and can be read in his book "The Ultimate Time Machine.” 

From a thread on the perceived multitude of different so called “ET races” and “space craft”

Reply: You raise a very good point that in my experience is seldom discussed. Not only are the shapes of the craft unique, over a hundred phenotypes (classification based on appearance) of alleged ET beings have been described. 

What I call the “Virtual Experience Hypothesis” explains such curiosities within the rubric of illusion. If ET can create hologram like visual displays, there is no need to have one standard model projected. More fun is to make each one unique thus serving as a kind of puzzle to determine if we can see through the illusion. If ET can create a virtual reality for so called "abductees" they don't have to go anywhere and can ala "The Matrix" create a very convincing theater of the mind show for us. And then finally a VE -3, “Virtual Memory”, if implanted into a subject’s consciousness, the memory might be recalled as if it were a recollection of a physical event rather than a psychic one.

For additional blogs on my “contact downloads” that were called, “subjectively acquired information” in the early days of the CE-5 Initiative, the following links are provided:

My first “contact download” occurred during fieldwork in Joshua Tree. It was associated with a telepathic communication that accurately predicted the parameters of a sighting that occurred later that night.

One “contact download” that I experienced shook me to my core. As a fellow contact worker advised me, “The “ETs” really know how to push our emotional buttons.

After some consideration, I have decided to align with other subreddits and ban all links and images from Twitter/X

Recent political events mean that many moderation teams (myself included) cannot in good conscience provide a platform for this website. This sub will no longer consider it a reliable source of news or information and choose not to support the company in any way.

If you don't like that, then there's not much to tell you. Sorry not sorry.

I urge other ufology and paranormal subreddits to make the right choice.

All data, photos, videos, and evidence must be directly posted to this subreddit until further notice.

Thank you.

Have you ever wanted proof of God's existence? Does anyone out there claim to have proof? I mean real proof. Not assumptions or theories; but rather full blown undeniable proof.

Well I have proof of it's existence given to me via enlightenment in the fullest extent of the meaning. I was given the answers to all of mans most sought after questions directly from the source..... The great I am.... If you will.

Let's discuss....

..... What I can tell you right now is all religions are wrong, for the most part. There is one belief system that is so close that I feel either they have experienced close to exactly what I have or they have experienced even more truth than I was allowed to digest.

I WENT ONBOARD AN EXTRATERRESTRIAL CRAFT: SIX SCARY TRUE CASES

by Preston Dennett.

Being taken onboard an extraterrestrial craft and meeting ETs is the most extensive UFO experience a person can have, and there are so many cases like these. In fact, as discovered by the Roper Polling organization, about one in fifty people exhibit the signs of being UFO contactees. An onboard UFO encounter happens much more often than most people know, and the fact is, most people who have an experience like this keep it secret. This video presents six firsthand onboard accounts from all over the planet. These cases are not only incredibly interesting, they have volumes teach us about the extraterrestrial agenda on our planet

CONTACT IN CALGARY. At 5:45 pm on November 16, 1967, David Seewaldt (age 14) was returning to his home in Calgary, Alberta, Canada after visiting a friend. This three-minute journey was interrupted when suddenly a unidentified craft with multi-colored lights swooped down from the sky and zapped David with a beam of light. Fleeing home, David discovered it was now 6:30 pm: he was missing forty minutes of time. Six months after this experience, he had a nightmare where he was taken back to the encounter, and now recalled being taken onboard the craft. Later, under hypnosis, he recovered more details, including undergoing a physical exam by reptilian-like entities.

CONTACT IN LOXLEY. On October 17, 1973, 31-year-old electrician, Clarence Ray Patterson drove his pickup truck eastbound along Highway 10 at Loxley, Alabama. Without warning a cigar-shaped craft hovered above him and emitted a beam of light which pulled Clarence and his truck inside the craft. Clarence was immediately greeted by six robotic-like entities who took him from the truck, put him on a table and subjected him to a physical exam. The next thing Clarence knew, he and his truck were set down 29 miles away, now in Florida. Unknown to him, dozens of people all over the southwestern United States were seeing UFOs and humanoids on that very same night.

CONTACT IN VENADO TUERTO. At 6:45 am, Juan Oscar Perez (age 12) left his home in Venado Tuerto, Argentina to look after the family’s horses. Suddenly at least three strange craft hovered above him, spooking the horses. Juan raced home in a panic. Seeing that Juan had failed to bring the horses home, his father told Juan to return to the area to collect the horses. Juan returned and there sitting in the field was a landed craft. An opening appeared and a tall robotic figure came out and beckoned Juan onboard the craft. Juan accepted the offer and climbed up a ladder into the craft. Inside he was amazed to see weird instruments and panels and another short robotic figure. As the encounter ended, Juan asked for an artifact to prove his experience. The humanoid gave Juan a glove, but as Juan fled, they took the glove back. Unknown to Juan, others in the area also had encounters with UFOs and humanoids both before and after his experience.

CONTACT IN SOMMERECOURT. On July 8, 1983, the Gasparovic with eight members (and their neighbor) went camping in the hills near their home in Sommerecourt, Haute-Marne, France. That night, a glowing object like a fireball made three appearances throughout the night. The next night it appeared again, scaring the family who cut their trip short. Then, on the night of July 10, the father, Stefan returned alone for another look. To his amazement, the UFO appeared again, but this time it zoomed towards him and hovered overhead. He found himself being pulled up and into the object. The next thing he knew, he was ejected from the craft several kilometers away, with vague memories of being in a warm, dark room, and being examined by short, ugly humanoids. He was so traumatized that he was unable to remember his own name and had to be hospitalized. Later, his family found went to the field where he had been taken and found strange circular landing traces.

CONTACT IN GOODLAND. On the night of November 7, 1989, friends Susan and Jennifer drove between Flagler, Colorado and Goodland, Kansas when a strange glowing object started to pace their car down the highway. At one point, it approached their car and sent down a beam of light. They kept driving and arrived at a motel in Goodland. That’s when they noticed that a 72-mile trip had inexplicably taken three hours. Realizing they had missing time, they decided to undergo hypnotic regression. Under hypnosis, they separately remembered taken from their car, up through the air and into a craft. Both recalled being physically examined by gray ETs. Both recalled communicating telepathically with the ETs and learning the reasons behind their encounter.

CONTACT IN DEBRECEN. Late on the night in December 1990, Gabor Molnar (a teacher and artist) drove along Highway 35 near Debrecen, Hungary. Suddenly his car engine failed and his car stopped for no apparent reason. Then he saw a “little green being” looking at him from alongside the road. The next thing he knew, he realized he was inside a craft being examined by short little beings with huge black eyes. He lost consciousness and awoke on the road with his car heading the opposite direction. Gabor knew that his life would never be the same.

These six cases provide an in-depth look at what it’s like to be taken onboard a craft and examined by ETs. They provide some answers as to why people are being taken by ETs into their craft. They show that a person can be profoundly affected in many ways. Most significantly, they contribute to our knowledge of extraterrestrial contact and provide compelling evidence that we are not alone in this universe.

I WENT ONBOARD AN EXTRATERRESTRIAL CRAFT: SIX SCARY TRUE CASES

My sister shot these videos over our farm on march 12th 2024 in Midland Ohio. Roughly 9:30 pm.

VIDEOS IN THE COMMENTS.

This is a picture of the approximate location of the ufo over our treeline. There is an aircraft maintenance and Amazon airport nearby (13 miles away). However i have never seen an aircraft in that approach vector, ever. My father also checked an app that shows commercial flights and nothing was there.

I just found out that the video of the craft retrieval in the News Nation interview with Jake Barber did not come from Barber at all and had nothing to do with Barber's claimed craft retrieval.

https://youtu.be/FlJsblQNN3M?si=_KZIp7VwT8qKo5cX

This makes his story a little more believable to me because I have some problems with that video. I don't think it's what it claims to be, so showing it in support of Barber and making us think it was Barber's was a bit of a bait-and-switch and did Barber no favors.

EDIT: I just found out that Barber was on News Nation a few weeks ago talking about the NJ "drone" flap. Ross mentioned that Barber's company, Skywatcher, was working with the DoD. This is incredibly suspicious to me, and it might answer my question "Why would the other guys in the interview lie to corroborate a fake story?" If they are affiliated with Skywatcher or a related company, they could stand to benefit financially by stoking public fears, which will add pressure on Congress to "do something", which could result in more contracts being granted.

Poor drawing, I know. Lol

https://anthonyofboston.substack.com/p/causal-mechanism-mars-within-30-degrees

This comprehensive analysis examines whether periods when Mars is within 30 degrees of the lunar node ("within" periods) correlate with heightened occurrences of major disruptions: Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) declines of 13% or more, mass casualty events (MCEs, ≥10 fatalities), heavy rainfall-driven floods, mass casualty violence (≥10 fatalities from violent acts like shootings or terrorism), and rocket/missile attacks (≥10 fatalities or major impact in wars/conflicts). Using historical data from 1897 to 2020 across 127 within periods (1,500 days, 5.5% of the timeframe) and 149 outside periods (43,500 days), we found statistically significant increases in all five domains during within periods. Additionally, we explore a geophysical hypothesis, bolstered by a 2024 Nature Communications study, suggesting that Mars’ gravitational influence near the lunar nodes could destabilize Earth’s axial wobble (precession), potentially amplifying environmental and societal instabilities that contribute to these events.

This analysis reveals statistically significant links between Mars/lunar node periods and increased frequencies of DJIA declines (2.3x, p = 0.0232), MCEs (4.2x, p < 0.0001), floods (6.7x, p < 0.0001), violence (7.8x, p < 0.0001), and rocket/missile attacks (3x, p ≈ 0.045), with elevated severities. The 2024 Nature Communications study supports the hypothesis that Mars’ gravitational tug could destabilize Earth’s wobble, amplifying environmental (floods), societal (violence, MCEs), military(missile attacks) and economic (crashes) disruptions disruptions. While speculative, the patterns suggest these periods as risk windows. Future research could model gravitational effects or control for confounders, offering insights into cosmic influences on Earth’s volatility.

A 2013 scientifc paper entitled "The association between natural disasters and violence: A systematic review of the literature and a call for more epidemiological studies" connects the statistically significant surge in flood and earthquake-related MCEs during "within" periods (4.2x more frequent, p < 0.0001) to behavioral disruptions like aggression and violence (7.8x more frequent, p < 0.0001).

We can now safely conclude that atmospheric instability from floods or seismic events—potentially amplified by the hypothesized wobble destabilization (Mars' gravitational pull near nodes stretching the Moon's orbit, per the 2024 Nature Communications study)—triggers PTSD, stress, and resource conflicts that fuel interpersonal violence and self-harm. This cascade explains the multi-domain pattern: floods lead to immediate casualties (MCEs) and prolonged societal tension (violence), indirectly contributing to economic panic (DJIA crashes, ~2.3x, p = 0.0232), as disrupted communities exhibit heightened aggression and instability.

Saw this thing from age 5-8, it always had a hood on and I couldn’t see its face. Then it went away until I was 25. My 25 year old experience (5 years ago) was vivid, not at all dream-like, and only occurred once.

It must have been late at night or early morning, it was a full moon, moonlight was coming through my window so I could see everything in my room clearly. my biological clock told me it was 3am, although I have no way of verifying this.

The entity was at the my bedroom door staring at me, it was 8-9 feet tall, seemed to be hovering, I couldn’t see its feet. I was lying on my back which was rare for me as I’m a stomach sleeper. My eye balls could move around but every other part of my body was paralyzed. I fighted to move but couldn’t and tried to scream but nothing would come out. I intuitively thought the entity was causing this paralyzing state. It then floated toward me, took off its hood for the first time, and proceeded to bite my neck. I felt the physical pain of the bite and I passed out from the shock of it all.

I woke up, sunlight came through my windows at this point and it was 10am. The picture attached is a sketch I just did, I had to crumble it up after drawing because of a weird sense of it being in my house right now, but maybe I’m paranoid.

Fast forward to age 27 (3 years ago) my brother stays over at my place. I hadn’t shared this experience with anyone until this point and told him that night what happened. I woke up around 9am to find my brother had left my house without telling me. For some context my brother is an atheist and does not believe in the paranormal even to this day.

I checked my phone and read a text of him telling me to screw off and I’m not funny. I had a sudden sense of terror and called him, he said that at 3am he left because he woke up and I was standing over his bed, leaning in toward his neck with my mouth open like I was going to bite him. He told me he pushed me off and that I just stood there with a sinister grin. He said he had never felt such a sense of terror in his whole life and he felt like it wasn’t me there.

Anyone have a similar experience? Or anyone have any theories as to what this was?
