From Wes Annac's personal blog:

The Ascended Masters and the Pleiadians: Addressing Disbelief

[11Jul2013]

-Channeled through Wes Annac-

We speak to you all with the exuberant, melded-together energies of the Pleiadian High Council and our collective of Masters. Our collective of Masters is speaking at the forefront of this communication in this moment, but the impressions coming through are ours as well as those of our dear Pleiadian counterparts.

We wish to address the disbelief in some that Galactic beings can exist alongside with us Masters or with Angelic beings. Humanity has so very much to learn about us souls existing in the various higher dimensions you’re growing back toward as a collective.

There’s so very much for you to learn about the myriad ascended beings, collectives and civilizations who exist in these brimming higher dimensions, and we and so many others will delightfully be on your world in the immediate time ahead to help you see the diversity of the beings assisting in your evolution.

Humanity is going to learn so very much, that that the limitations set in place by the majority of souls on your world are going to be, for more or less, diminished.

An Open-Minded Understanding

The science-fiction mindsets that have rendered so many ideas or topics so unbelievable on your world will be replaced with an open-minded understanding that nearly everything important for you to know has been hidden from you and given a fictitious mindset.

Humanity has been programmed to go against ideas that will aid you in your evolution, and this has been assisted by the media as it’s established on your world today. Ideas of the benevolent Galactic beings assisting in the ascension of your planet have been dwindled-down into ideas of scary fictitious alien invaders, or considered as “fringe” ideas.

It’s unfortunate indeed, as these beings are so very close with your world and have so very much to teach the collective of humanity in the way of advanced technology and understanding the mechanics of your Galaxy and Universe.

There are numerous ascended civilizations right in your cosmic backyard; stationed right outside of your Earth and anxiously awaiting your understanding of them and your belief in the reality of their presence.

These beings have so very much Love and compassion, wisdom and empathy to share with humanity, but their presence has been denied and ridiculed. We do not say this in a disconcerting or negative way, but this is simply the state of affairs on your world regarding your Galactic brethren.

We speak of such things in part to help each of you shine your perceptive Light onto them, as we seek to help you understand the reality of the presence of your Galactic brethren, as well as their interest in your planet for so very long and their desire to help you evolve into purer states of consciousness.

The Pleiadian High Council wish now to step to the forefront of this communication, and we will gratefully step aside to allow them to come forth and present themselves.

The Pleiadians Speak

With immense appreciation to the dear Ascended Masters, we are the Pleiadian High Council. We have been present during this communication, adding our own energies and bits of insight into what the dear Ascended Masters have given.

We do indeed possess an enormous Love for your planet and for each of you absorbing this communication, and the fact that you’ve been able to break through the aforementioned instilled barriers and find a belief in the reality of our presence, is astounding indeed.

The Earthly experience has kept many souls feeding into the barriers mentioned by the dear Ascended Maters, as you’ve grown up in conditioned societies and, in many cases, have had your ideas of reality fed to your collective through your mainstream media.

When an awakened soul looks around your reality, they can see the many things that seem nearly designed to hold them back and keep them feeding spiritually-drained states of consciousness.

We, the dear Ascended Masters and a plethora of other beings and collectives have focused so very much of ourselves on the evolution of humanity and on getting you to understand your evolution from behind the scenes, and we’ve utilized scribes and channels nearly endlessly to help inform you of your ascension into purer states of consciousness.

Even plenty of awakening souls who perhaps believe in or could become open to the reality of our presence around your planet, still are not opened-up to the idea that we would choose to communicate with humanity.

Attempts to Introduce Peace

Some souls entrenched in mainstream ideologies and viewpoints on your world would assume us only to attempt to make official contacts with developed governments if we are truly real, not knowing that we’ve met with your governments and attempted to help bring-about world peace and prosperity on your world for all, numerous times.

Numerous times they’ve declined, and so we’ve taken it upon ourselves to assist you in your evolution by connecting with as many awakened Earthly souls who can find an open and steady connection to our energies and impressions, as possible.

The manner in which we communicate with humanity is necessary for your advancement and growth as a species.

We will indeed be on your world when the veils of suppression and secrecy surrounding our existence have been seen-through by all of humanity, but for the time being, we seek to assist you in your growth by helping you expand your channels, in the form of offering you our energies and impressions.

We do indeed see our communication with humanity as important to our overall mission, and the largest facet of the giving of our energies to you for you to absorb, is just that; an energy exchange. We seek to help you reach purer states of consciousness and to that extent, the energies we give, which our impressions and communications are embedded unto, give you an energetic “helping hand” of sorts.

In an energetic sense, the impressions we’re giving-off as our scribe receives such impressions through the heart and makes a mental interpretation of them, are brimming with massive amounts of pure Source energy for you to absorb, that’ll help you seek and find the higher dimensions in yourselves exponentially.

You’re Actively Channeling Us

Those who read our communications and those of various other ascended beings and collectives are actively channeling our energies through themselves when doing so, which is why we’ve long said that you can find a connection with us and act upon that connection if you truly wish to.

Souls who read our communications are left with our lingering energies, which hang around within them and help to purify their chakras.

Energy stays where it’s fed into and as such, our energies and impressions remain within each of you who absorb our communications. Quite honestly, you could never have to absorb a communication from us again, through this scribe or any others, after reading our messages only once.

By the end of your reading of that communication and your absorbing of our energies for that particular frame of time, our impressions will be able to stick with you in ways that’ll see you able to actively pick-up on them and channel us yourselves if you wish to, without ever having to read another channeled communication.

Of course, we don’t discourage absorbing channeled communications, but we and so many others wholeheartedly encourage discernment with everything one is given.

Discernment will see you well on your way to finding what works for you in the avenue of channeled messages, spiritual writings or anything else, and will see you able to let whatever doesn’t resonate with you in your heart space, simply be.

You’re the Citizens of the Free and Sovereign Earth

Discernment is a wonderful thing indeed, and we speak of discernment in part to encourage breaking away from mainstream mindsets concerning so many areas of your society; to be discerning of them.

We wish to help you understand the distortions that have taken place in your reality; not so that your emotions or moods can be brought down when thinking of them, but so you can recognize them for what they are and work to arise, physically and spiritually, and proclaim your sovereignty from the false reality that’s been created in an effort to continually distract and pacify humanity.

You’re the citizens of the free and sovereign Earth, and this will become more than apparent when the bulk of work to repair your Earth begins to be performed by humanity.

We and so many others will be with you to lend helping-hands and to share our sentient technologies in an effort to help you perform much of what needs done, relatively easily. We will, for the most part, watch from the sidelines as you repair your dear Earth, as you’ve always been meant to do.

Some souls on your Earth, when thinking of the possibility of our existence around your world, may take to a mindset of assuming we’d attempt to steer your evolution ourselves or invade your collective freewill measures with an overwhelming presence, but truly, we do not seek to do such things.

We’ve worked for so very long under the freewill perimeters we’ve been allotted, as humanity is meant to experience everything you Create for yourselves and, in this very moment, actively recognize and purge the influence of darkness from your world.

This will come about in the form of realizing what you perceive to be darkness for what it is; just a varying shade of the Light energy.

You’re all Lighted

Everything is comprised of the ultimate energy of Love, and this includes those who’ve hurt others on your world in a massive effort to feed the distorted states of consciousness they’ve been taught to believe are heaven.

We speak of those souls who’ve been referred to as the cabals; the Illuminati; there are various labels for these individuals. They’ve sought to feed the realms of fourth density-negative by manifesting widespread sacrifice and hardship, and have assumed themselves all-powerful and of a purer consciousness than the general populace of your Earth.

They’re learning in very hard ways at present, that they’re no different from the rest of the souls on your world. You’re all Lighted beings at your core; even those who seem to have extinguished their Light in favor of working for a fallen angel who’s returned to the side of the Light.

Luciferianism will be understood by your collective in the time ahead, as that belief system has ignited the cabals into doing the bulk of what they’ve done. We’ll forever encourage forgiveness of the cabals and of the cabal-heads when learning of everything they’ve done, as vengeful mindsets will only feed the lower states of consciousness we know you’re all so very ready to grow away from and transmute.

We’ll turn this temple over to the dear Ascended Masters now, for the conclusion of this communication. We offer you each our Love in every moment, and we’ll be with you far after the issuing of this communication, as expressed above.

Our Love is of a pure fifth-dimensional nature, and it’s here for you to actively pick-up on and express in any and every moment.

The Ascended Masters Conclude

We express the purest of gratitude to the dear Pleiadians, for their energies and the information they’ve given for this message.

We trust that you can feel the pure energies beginning to descend down unto you now, and as you feel these energies, know that they’re being sent with an understanding of the difficulties that have blocked many awakening souls from finding blissful states of consciousness.

We’re here for you as well, to offer solace and guidance in every moment. As we make our final impressions for this joint communication, we as well as the dear Pleiadians express that your perception of us and of the realms of full consciousness are only to grow more than they already have, from here on out.

Feel the Love we’re offering you, now and in every moment, because we send it with clear intent and purpose. We send it with the intention of opening your minds, your hearts and all of your chakras; even those you have no idea you possess.

You have at your use, so many links to the higher dimensions and to us. Recognize your ability to pick-up on our impressions and communicate with and exist in the higher dimensions, for you’re making your triumphant return to these realms after lifetimes spent in perceived Earthly solitude.

Thank you so very much to the Ascended Masters, and to the Pleiadian High Council. You have the sincere appreciation of the Earthly Ground Crew.

Saul via John Smallman: Your Hearts Are Vast Spaces into which Endless Joy Is About to Flow



John Smallman

John Smallman

Saul: Your Hears Are Vast Spaces into which Endless Joy Is About to Flow, channeled by John Smallman, July 10, 2013 at: http://johnsmallman.files.wordpress.com

John’s reading of today’s message can be heard here:http://johnsmallman.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/2013-07-10-saul-audioblog-for-wednesday-july-10th.mp3

The continual outpouring of Love now in progress on your planet is having a most powerful effect, an effect that has not yet been fully recognized even by some of the Light-bearers and wayshowers who chose to be here to engage with It and assist in bringing humanity to the point of awakening.

There is a lightness in the air, in the atmosphere, that is raising spirits even as the mainstream news media continues to focus on the dramas of conflict, political and economic instability, and accidents and catastrophes all across the world. But there truly are signs – signs very visible to those who choose to see – of the rising frequency of humanity’s energy field as it moves inexorably away from the dark and into the Light, disclosing and undoing the secrecy and corruption that has for so long been endemic.

The Light is your Home; It is where you belong; It is where you have your eternal existence. What you have been experiencing, the illusion – the nightmare that has been doing its best to convince you for seemingly eons that it is the only reality – is about to end.

The Love flooding into all your hearts so enticingly and irresistibly is successfully encouraging you to release all that is not in alignment with It. As It does so, you are finding that your hearts are not just small receptacles where you hold your fears, worries, anxieties, and the sometimes relentlessly fading memories of happier times. No, they are vast spaces, infinitely large, into which endless joy is about to flow as you release all that has been troubling you. Intend – determinedly intend – to open your hearts fully to be embraced by and enveloped in our Father’s divine field of Love, and bring yourselves and humanity forwards to your awakening.

There is no way you can fail to awaken if it is your choice to do so, because it is also God’s Will. However, He will not force his Will upon you. Instead He will wait patiently and lovingly until you are ready to open your hearts to accept the Love He offers you in every moment. Truly, you are only sleeping, and it is not possible to sleep for all eternity! In fact, the sleeping nightmare in which you are presently apparently fully engaged could also perhaps be described as a state of denial. And a state of denial cannot be maintained indefinitely; it will eventually erupt into your conscious awareness most unexpectedly, and probably quite shockingly, if you do not choose to make a point of addressing the issues that you have buried because you fear that they are far too painful to deal with.

Everyone has issues with which they need to deal in order to release all that is unloving, enabling them to unlock the doors to their hearts which are often kept locked and bolted in fear. There is no need for fear because if you will open your hearts to accept the Love that is constantly on offer, peace and contentment will pour in, and your hearts will grow enormously, expanding eternally to take full advantage of all that God offers you. Presently, most of you in the illusion have not only locked and bolted your heart centers, but you have also failed to nourish them, in the only way possible, by offering and sharing love with everyone with whom you interact at every opportunity, indiscriminately and unconditionally – and they have become rather shrunken as a result.

When you make that choice to accept the Love that is constantly being offered to you, as many of you already have done, and as many more of you are in the process of doing, the overall effect on humanity is amazing, utterly amazing – and that cannot be overstated. You are here at this time to do just this: OPEN YOUR HEARTS! You chose to incarnate at this point in humanity’s ongoing evolution for this express purpose, and you have enormous assistance from those in the spiritual realms to help you overcome your fears, your sense of vulnerability.

Once you do open your hearts, and in this you cannot fail, you will be astounded by the sense of love, of purpose, of satisfaction that vulnerability provides. Mostly humans consider it dangerous to allow themselves to be vulnerable, because that word has come to mean a state of defenselessness, a state in which you are likely to be ferociously attacked or victimized. But what vulnerability truly means is being in a state in which you have raised no defenses, a state in which you are open – and when you are open Love can and will pour in. That is one of the lessons that many of you are learning in this lifetime. Remember, you cannot be offended by anything anyone says to you unless you make a very positive choice to be offended. And you only do that when you set too low a value on yourselves and expect others to judge you, as they will. BUT their opinion of you is none of your business, ever. If others choose to judge you, they are the ones with a problem!

You are all divine beings eternally loved by God. If others choose not to love you, or even to hate you, it is only a sign of their own sense of inadequacy, so send them love and feel your own spirits rise. Make sure not to miss your daily quiet periods when you can intensify your practice of being loving so that it becomes your natural state – as in truth it always has been.

With so very much love, Saul.

Jennifer Hoffman: Keep Moving, Change Lanes Later



jennifer-hoffmanKeep Moving, Change Lanes Later – by Jennifer Hoffman, July 8, 2013. http://enlighteninglife.com/jennifers-blog/

The title of this article is from a sign I saw as I was driving down the highway while on my road trip. I would have taken a photo but it was in a construction zone and there was nowhere to stop. The sign was there to prevent cars from entering a fairly confusing and busy interchange and then immediately trying to change lanes.

Instead, they could enter the highway in their own lane, pick up speed and change lanes once they were moving with the faster traffic, without slowing down the oncoming traffic or getting in its way. Hmmm, there was definitely a message I could relate to there.

When I saw the sign, I was thinking about what I was going to do after all of the energy release and recalibration work that I have been doing intensely for the past month and for many years before that. Can I move on now and do other things? Is it the right time? What do I do next? It made me laugh because it is another example of what we are going through now as we move farther into the uncharted territory of our latest aspects of evolution and Ascension, which is acting from our healed and whole selves.

What are we doing and who are we being if we are not healing others, holding energetic space for healing, creating healing opportunities, participating in ours and others’ healing journeys, and being the healer for the world? We keep moving forward on our own path and we change lanes, or change our path, as the opportunities come up to do so, or as we explore other aspects of ourselves that exist beyond the healer.

We have done this work for so long that we want to know that it is going to be OK, we have permission from the Universe, our guides, the planet, our healing partners, that we can let go of the rope and nothing bad will happen. And for some it’s a little intimidating to re-enter the world after so many years of living in relative isolation.

Too often we also wait for everything to be in place, to know exactly what is going to happen before we commit ourselves to anything and yet, this is the part where we get stuck the most often. We spend so much time wondering which lane we should be in, where we fit, or which one needs us the most, that we never enter the freeway.

It’s time to enter the freeway, traffic and all, to get moving and not focus on doing as much as being what we want, the doing part will flow from the energy we create in our lives. We don’t have to know what is going to make us happy, we just have to be in joy. We do not have to know what we will love, we just have to be in gratitude for what we have in each moment and for the opportunity to choose anything and everything else. We do not have to know what the next step is going to be because we get to create that path and we do it from being in its energy, not from knowing what to do next.

The outcome flows from the energy, not the other way around. This is a new way of being for us and a new way of doing things, to experience life from our vibration and frequency, instead of doing things that make us feel good.

One of my last stops of this trip is Graceland, the home of Elvis Presley, in Memphis. After all of the work that has been done on this trip, I finish it by visiting the ‘land of grace’. I didn’t really plan it that way, it was the logical step on the road home. I have more stories to share with you about what happened on this trip, I’ll share some of them in the coming days and on the radio show.

We have been waiting for this process to happen and it is here now, we do not have to wait any longer and the faster we get clear on our being the easier it will be for us to start moving forward faster and with more confidence as we create our new world in the new world.

The Transformation from Carbon Base to Crystalline Body – Part 1



AscensionPerhaps we can take a moment out to look at what our sources say about our transformation from bodies with a carbon base to those with a crystalline base.

Introduction

As we look into the subject, the first thing to keep in mind is that we’re on a return journey and part of it is the return of our crystalline form. Archangel Michael tells us that “when you began your adventure into the physical realms of materiality, you slowly built a garment of flesh around your shining, crystalline Light Body.” (1)

Now the very physical body that we built is becoming transformed into crystal, as SaLuSa tells us here; “You [will] eventually rise up with a physical body that has become crystalline.” (2)

A series of events saw us devolve from crystalline bodies to carbon-based. Dark forces from our distant history played a hand in it, as Matthew Ward tells us.

“Eons back in your time, darkly-inclined souls altered human DNA to reduce the amount of light in bodies. That allowed them to install patterning for physical weakness, illness, aging, death, and severely decreased capacity for intelligence and spiritual clarity.” (3)

Archangel Michael tells us that our ego desire body also played a role.

“The master teachers of the past … said that your physical bodies were originally created from etheric substance. You first came to Earth in your radiant Crystalline form, and gradually over many ages you developed your beautiful physical body from the Adam/Eve Kadmon Divine Blueprint for this Sub-universe.

“The distortions began as you sank into the density, and the ego desire body gradually took control of the mental and emotional bodies; this resulted in a good portion of your Soul Self withdrawing from your Sacred Heart Center into your Soul Star above the Crown Chakra.” (4)

We’re now reversing these effects, Matthew tells us: “Those limitations are being reversed by the ever-increasing intensity of light in bodies that are absorbing it.” (5)

We Need Crystalline Bodies to Survive in the Higher Dimensions

As Matthew suggests, our Third-Dimensional, carbon-based bodies cannot survive in the higher dimensions.

“Souls that absorb the light, which is constantly available to all, are changing at cellular level from carbon-based third density bodies to crystalline-based bodies that can survive in the higher frequencies.” (6)

SaLuSa explains that the matter they’re composed of cannot hold together in the more refined vibrations.

“The physical matter of your dimension is tenuous and cannot hold together in the higher realms. That is why the changes from carbon-based cells to crystalline, are necessary to enable your Ascension.” (7)

In the past, people left their physical bodies to ascend to higher dimensions. They did so after arduous spiritual training and in very small numbers. But now we look forward to a mass ascension while retaining our physical bodies, SaLuSa explains, a first in the universe:

“At the end of every cycle there is an emergence of those who are ready to move on to the higher realms. However, as many of you are now aware this one is unique, as you take your physical body with you.

“Not as your existing carbon based body, but one that has become crystalline and can function in the 5th. Dimension. One that has become lighter, and has moved into a near perfect expression of itself.” (8)

It is the absorption of light that is causing the transformation, Matthew tells us:

“The light that is absorbed by receptive souls is changing their cells into a crystalline structure for physical survival in the higher vibrational levels as well as increasing spiritual clarity and thus soul evolution.” (9)

Ascension is not determined by tests or trials at this time, but simply by choice and by the absorption of light, he reveals.

“There is no seat of judgment or arbitrary selection of which humans can ascend and which cannot – it is strictly a matter of science and souls’ own choices. Light changes third density’s carbon-based cellular structure to the crystalline form that lets bodies survive in the higher frequencies, or vibrations, of fourth density and beyond.” (10)

Tomorrow we’ll look at some of the advantages we can expect from our new crystalline bodies.

(Continued in Part 2. You’re welcome to read ahead.)

US Navy Plan to Prepare for Extraterrestrials Among Us Secretly Developed in 1998



navy reportSteve: Note that the U.S. Navy have been white knights for many years now and recently took command of the secret space fleet, Solar Warden, from Northern Command, which was corrupted by the cabal, also many years ago.

See for example “Does the Reactivation of Tenth Fleet Hide a Takeover of Northern Command?”here. Of course officials will deny the story of their work with the galactics.

By Dr Michael Salla, ExoPolitics – July 10, 2013

http://tinyurl.com/nzu9p25

In honor of US Independence Day, Catherine Austin Fitts, a former Assistant Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), released a document supporting her claims that the US Navy initiated a plan in 1998 to adjust its operations for a future where extraterrestrials exist and live among us.

She claims the plan was commissioned by the Undersecretary of the US Navy and was undertaken by the Arlington Institute, an NGO located near the Pentagon with many military clients, where Fitts served on the Board of Directors.

She was asked to assist with the plan and claims she was given an opportunity to meet a live alien, but declined.

When I contacted the Arlington Institute in 2008, two members of the Board of Directors repudiated Fitts claims.

The document released on her website is the official minutes of a Board of Directors meeting held at the Arlington Institute in 2000. The document confirms key elements in her version of events, especially that Arlington Institute was actively discussing plans for how to best prepare the general public for disclosing the existence of, and contact with, extraterrestrial life.

Catherine Fitts claims that in 1998 the Undersecretary of the U.S. Navy had commissioned a “high level strategic plan” to prepare the American public for an official announcement that extraterrestrials exist and live among us. She wrote:

In 1998, I was approached by John Peterson, head of the Arlington Institute, a small high quality military think tank in Washington, DC. I had gotten to know John through Global Business Network and had been impressed by his intelligence, effectiveness and compassion.

John asked me to help him with a high level strategic plan Arlington was planning to undertake for the Undersecretary of the Navy. At the time I was the target of an intense smear campaign that would lead the normal person to assume that I would be in jail shortly or worse.

John explained that the Navy understood that it was all politics —- they did not care. I met with a group of high level people in the military in the process — including the Undersecretary.

According to John, the purpose of the plan — discussed in front of several military or retired military officers and former government officials— was to help the Navy adjust their operations for a world in which it was commonly known that aliens exist and live among us.

When John explained this purpose to me, I explained that I did not know that aliens existed and lived among us. John asked me if I would like to meet some aliens. For the only time in my life, I declined an opportunity to learn about something important.

In March 2008 I was planning to write an article about Ms Fitts’ claims, and began my investigation by first contacting her to elaborate or clarify her earlier recollection. Fitts said she had nothing to add to what had already been released to the public.

I then contacted John Petersen, President of the Arlington Institute. He flatly denied Ms Fitts’ claims and offered to put me in communication with other members of the Board of Directors to get independent confirmation.

In subsequent email communications with Joe Firmage, another Board member, he also denied Ms Fitts version of events, and did not recall any meetings where she was also present where the issue of extraterrestrial life was discussed.

I was unsuccessful in reaching Jerry MacArthur Hultin, who served as Undersecretary of the Navy during the period mentioned by Fitts.


To varying degrees, Petersen and Firmage both claimed there was no substance to Fitts’ story. Petersen was especially insistent that Fitts had contrived the entire scenario.

Given that two members of the Arlington Institute Board of Directors directly contradicted her version of events, and I was not able to find any other witnesses to support her claims, I decided to postpone writing an article on the incident until independent confirmation could be found.

Almost five years later, in my recently published book, Galactic Diplomacy: Getting to Yes with ET, I included the incident described by Catherine Fitts along with the denial by John Petersen and Joe Firmage. I wrote:

I have been able to confirm that Fitts served on the Board of Directors of the Arlington Institute during the period in question, and that extraterrestrial life was discussed at some of its closed door meetings as a hypothetical “wildcard event.” However, Fitts’ specific claim of there being a strategic plan sponsored by the U.S. Navy to prepare the public for disclosure of extraterrestrial life, or of a possible meeting an extraterrestrial, was not supported by other Board members.(414)

In the footnote 414, I gave some details of my communications with Petersen and Firmage.

On July 4, 2013 I received a short email by Ms Fitts with a subject header referencing footnote 414 in my Galactic Diplomacy book where I elaborated on the repudiation of her claims by Arlington Institute Board members.

The content of her email directed me to a new page on her Solari website which was just uploaded. She wrote:

In the spirit of Independence Day, I am publishing the minutes of the board meeting of the Arlington Institute on April 10th, 2000. I have repeatedly stated that I would do so if my description of this meeting was contradicted by any of the members.

With the publication of Galactic Diplomacy, the contradiction of her version of events by other Arlington Institute Board members was now part of the public record.

Consequently, Fitts felt free to release documentation supporting her version of events – Minutes of the March 26, 1999 Board of Directors meeting. The Minutes of the meeting state:

Mr. Petersen then reported that the Institute had been approached to determine if it was interested in publishing a study by Pickford and Lindemann on the subject of life outside of the earth.

After discussion, there was general agreement that publication of the study would be a good idea and would be consistent with the work otherwise being done by the Institute with respect to wild cards.

While the study mentioned by Pickford and Lindemann is not identified, here is an online account of eight alien contact scenarios they developed for a workshop on extraterrestrial contact as recalled by one of the participants:

Called the second “Contact Planning” meeting and held in Denver, Colorado, this workshop was sponsored by the International Space Sciences Organization and organized by Kyle Pickford and Michael Lindemann….

We spent one afternoon in five groups: business, religion, science, government, and media/public. Each group role-played its behavior for each of eight scenarios.

Although I have read lots of literature on post-contact behavior, this was the first time that I deeply grasped just how people in each of those categories may actually behave right after contact….

What can we do now to prepare? We spent the last few hours of the meeting generating and clustering various strategic planning possibilities.

A large number of these ideas clearly fit into two clusters that I find very encouraging: (a) tell the general public the truth right away and (b) prepare to communicate and negotiate with ETI in a friendly and cooperative manner, even if its behavior seems unfriendly.

The minutes of the meeting confirm that the Arlington Institute was discussing extraterrestrial contact scenarios in at least one Board of Directors meeting as Fitts claimed. Importantly, the minutes confirm that the Arlington Institute was doing work for clients that involved extraterrestrial contact as a wild card issue.

According to Ms Fitts, one of these clients was the US Navy.

In private email communications, Petersen confirmed that Fitts did participate in a Navy Project conducted by the Arlington Institute, and that the extraterrestrial contact issue did come up as a “wild card” future scenario event.

However, he pointed out that there was no strategic plan commissioned by the US Navy to prepare the public for extraterrestrial contact as claimed by Fitts.

There remains substantial differences between Catherine Fitts and John Petersen over the extent to which the US Navy interest in extraterrestrial contact issues was part of a strategic study as Fitts claims, or simply part of ad hoc discussions as Petersen contends.

Nevertheless, the official Board minutes released by Fitts does lend support to her main claim that the US Navy commissioned a project with the Arlington Institute for its expertise on wild card future scenarios involving extraterrestrial contact.

It can therefore be concluded with some confidence that official efforts began in 1998 by the US Navy to prepare for a world where extraterrestrials exist and are living among the human population.
