Categories of UFO Experiences

June R. Steiner, Ph.D, C.H.T.

 

  1. SIGHTINGS OF UFO.
  2. SEEING PHYSICAL TRACES OF SPACECRAFT HAVING LANDED.
  3. TELEPATHIC OR DREAM CONTACT.
  4. ENCOUNTER WITH HUMANOID BEINGS WITH OR WITHOUT A SIGHTING.
  5. ABDUCTION WHERE PERSON IS TAKEN INTO A SHIP OR TO ANOTHER LOCATION.
  6. BEING EXAMINED, IMPLANTED, FERTILIZED OR OTHERWISE PHYSICALLY IMPACTED.
  7. ENCOUNTER WITH SOMEONE OR SOMETHING THAT CHANGES SHAPE, SPECIES, MATTER AND/OR MATERIAL FORM.
  8. "HEARING" OR OTHERWISE RECEIVING MESSAGES ON ONE OCCASION OR ON AN ON-GOING BASIS.

Many people have multiple experiences, some over an entire lifetime. Others may only have one event. One person in a household may be singled out or entire families may share events. Screen memories may have been utilized to keep the person from awareness of what actually happened.

Unlike the NDE, the UFO experience is not widely recognized by the medical nor the scientific community, and often not by society at large. Reporting such an event can bring ridicule, recriminations, and/or being ostracism, or even being labeled as mentally ill in some situations.

Therefore the person can come back with little or no support from their communities or families to help them integrate their experience or the aftereffects. Few people are trained to help them work through their experience.

  8. REPEATED SIGHTINGS OF UFO’s.
  9. VAGUE RECOLLECTIONS OF A CLOSE ENCOUNTER.
  10. UNEXPLAINED HEALING OF AILMENTS OR AFFLICTIONS.
  11. REACTING WITH FEAR OF AND/OR ANXIETY ABOUT UFO’s,
  12.  PARANOIA, LOOKING UNDER BEDS AND IN CLOSETS.

 

The Major Problems Facing the Experiencer Are:

1. MOST PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE IMMEDIATE MEMORY OF THE INCIDENT AND OFTEN HAVE AFTER-EFFECTS THAT DO NOT MAKE SENSE TO THEM. SOME ARE REMEMBERING AFTER MANY YEARS. MANY WERE TOLD BY THE CONTACTEES TO FORGET THE EVENT OR THEY RELEGATE THE MEMORY TO THEIR UNCONSCIOUS BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID TO EXPOSE IT TO THEMSELVES OR TO ANYONE ELSE.
 

2. MOST EXPERIENCERS FEAR THEY WILL NOT BE BELIEVED AND/OR THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IT THEMSELVES. MANY FEAR REJECTION OR BEING LABELED AND/OR DOUBT THEIR SANITY.

3. MANY FEEL TRAUMA DUE TO BEING KIDNAPPED, INVADED, ABUSED, OR TRAUMATIZED BY EXAMINATIONS, IMPLANTS, AND THE ABDUCTION ITSELF. MANY FEEL THEY HAVE BEEN SEXUALLY INVADED, HELD AGAINST THEIR WILL. MANY SUFFER PAIN.

4. PROBLEMS CAN ARISE IN THE FAMILY BECAUSE OF THE CHANGES IN VALUES, ATTITUDES, AND INTERESTS THAT OFTEN TAKE PLACE IN THE INDIVIDUAL’S LIFE AFTER AN EVENT. DIFFICULTY WITH FAMILY UNITY AND ACCEPTANCE. WITHOUT PROFESSIONAL HELP THESE CHANGES CAN CREATE FEAR AND FEELINGS OF ISOLATION.

5. MANY HAVE DIFFICULTY FITTING INTO DAILY LIFE BECAUSE OF THESE CHANGES.

6. MANY EXPERIENCE FEAR OF RIDICULE.

7. MANY HAVE DIFFICULTY WITH CHANGING BELIEFS, VALUES AND LIFE PURPOSE.

8. MANY HAVE FEAR OF BECOMING A TOOL OR CAPTIVE SUBJECT OF THESE UNKNOWN PERSONS, THUS LOSING CONTROL OVER ONE’S LIFE. WILL IT HAPPEN AGAIN? WHY THEM?

 

Investigation Versus Therapy:

THESE ARE TWO VERY DIFFERENT APPROACHES AND THE NEEDS AND PREFERENCES OF THE EXPERIENCER MUST BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT. IN PLACES OF GREAT TRAUMA, THE THERAPY NEEDS MUST BE MET FIRST TO ALLOW PERSON TO MAINTAIN DAILY LIFE.

 

Type of Help Needed:

HELPING PERSON MUST HAVE EXCELLENT LISTENING, WITNESSING, FEEDBACK AND CLARITY IN COMMUNICATION. THEY SHOULD HAVE TRAINING/EXPERIENCE IN WORKING IN THESE AREAS.

THEY NEED AN OPEN MIND, THEY MUST BE NON-JUDGMENTAL, ABLE TO CREATE A STRONG TRUST BASE AND SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR AND WITH THE CLIENT. PREFERABLY SOMEONE WITH STRONG HYPNOSIS SKILLS TO HELP BRING BACK THE EXPERIENCE FOR THOSE CLIENTS WHO HAVE BURIED THE MEMORIES.

SUPPORT GROUP CONTACT FOR CONSENSUAL VALIDATION OF EVENTS AND COMMON (SHARED)

EMOTIONAL RESPONSES IS VERY HELPFUL TO BREAK DOWN ALIENATION AND PERSONAL DETACHMENT ON THE PART OF THE CLIENT.

 

The Client must be Helped to Deal with:

PHYSICAL (SOMATIC):
EXAMINATIONS, IMPLANTATIONS, HEALING, TEMPORARY PARALYSIS, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, VOMITING, HEADACHE, BLINDNESS

EMOTIONAL (AFFECTIVE REACTIONS):
FEARS, LIFE VALUES, FEELINGS

COGNITIVE STYLE:
PSYCHIC MANIFESTATIONS AND PARA-NORMAL EVENTS IN THEIR LIVES, INSTRUCTION FOR A MISSION OR A TASK IN THIS LIFE

PERSONALITY AND CHARACTEROLOGICAL CHANGES:
OFTEN SEE INTERESTS, DIET, VALUES AND SOCIAL CHANGE. PEOPLE BECOME MORE INVOLVED IN SERVICE, AND HAVE FOUND A NEW PURPOSE IN LIFE.

SPIRITUAL CHANGES IN THOSE UNDER-GOING UFO EXPERIENCES
EXPERIENCERS BELIEVE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN PROFOUNDLY AFFECTED - PHYSIOLOGICALLY, PSYCHOLOGICALLY AND SPIRITUALLY THROUGH THE ENCOUNTERS THEY HAVE UNDERGONE. THESE ARE SOME OF THE WAYS THEY FEEL CHANGED.
