đ§” Terence McKenna on UFOs: Not ETs, something stranger.
Most people think UFOs are spacecraft from another star system.
Terence McKenna didnât buy it.
His take is that weâre not being visited.
Weâre being intruded upon.đ

McKenna told Jeffrey Mishlove:
The idea of aliens arriving in nuts-and-bolts ships to trade, invade, or evangelize is just a modern myth.
One that started after WWII, and it doesnât hold up anymore.

There are too many encounters, too many types of encounters.
Craft, orbs, abductions, missing time, telepathy, synchronicity, psychic residue.
It doesnât act like a physical investigation.
It behaves like a psychological intervention.

Carl Jung wrote about this in 1953.
He didnât say UFOs were fake, he said they might be real dreams.
Symbols with shape and light that speak to the unconscious.
A âmandala in the skyâ reflecting humanityâs yearning for wholeness.

McKenna pushes it further.
He says if it were just psychological, that wouldnât explain how real the experience feels.
People donât walk away from dreams with burns, radiation, or completely restructured belief systems.

Why would âaliensâ need thousands of visitations per year for decades?
Even our crude probes can scan entire planets from orbit.
McKenna goes on to state that this isnât research, itâs something deeper.

What weâre seeing, he says, is a cross-dimensional bleed-through.
A high-frequency penetration from an entirely different ontology.
Not creatures from space, but intelligences from another order of being.

McKenna called it âan alien dimension intruding on ours at an industrial scale.â
Itâs not about ships, itâs about our minds, symbols. The structure of thought itself.
UFOs arenât coming from somewhere.
Theyâre erupting into somewhere, us!

McKenna suggests the phenomenon is closer to shamanism than space travel.
He claims that contact happens in the mind. Through language, and symbols.
Theyâre not here to land, theyâre here to rewire us.

This is why McKenna turned to psychedelics.
DMT visions mirrored the same phenomena, the entities and telepathy
The impossibility of what you saw.
He called them âself-transforming machine elves.â
Same game, different medium according to him.

If what McKenna says is true, UFOs arenât alien objects, theyâre alien ideas, trying to become real.
A virus of consciousness.
Rewriting human perception to allow the other in.
Is it wise to be trying to contact the phenomenon if this is the case?

Jacques Vallée reached a similar conclusion:
UFOs may be a control system, an intelligence that guides us by interfering with belief itself.
McKenna called it the cosmic trickster.
A puzzle with no solution, because you are the piece being moved.

Whatever UFOs are, theyâre not simple.
They defy category because they arenât meant to fit in one.
Theyâre not craft, theyâre catalysts.
The phenomenon is real.
But the nature of that reality is up for grabs! đ§”/End
Follow @UAPWatchers for deep dives into the real side of the phenomenon.
We donât do surface-level. We go straight into the high strangeness!
