JUPITER AND TIN
Alison Davidson
Back in ancient times when the gods were not only
worshipped but took an active role in the affairs of their
humans, we come across many references to the precious
metals, prized for their magical properties as well as their
more practical value. Sacred objects and talismans crafted in
metal and imbued with divine powerwere often given as gifts
to those who were specially favoured by the gods.
For example, we read in the poet Homer’s Iliad:
“He spoke and hurled his javelin with weighty hand; not
in vain, for he hit him below the knee on his shin bone, so that
the tin covering of the new, strong shin-plate sounded with a
frightful clash; yet the copper weapon bounced back and did not
penetrate the shield, a gift of the gods. ”
Among the metals, tin has always been held sacred to
Jupiter, both the planet and the great protective deity of the
Romans. A magnifi cent temple in Rome built by Etruscan
architects in honour of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva was the
centre of religious life of the state. Jupiter Optimus Maximus
was the great god of the Capitol who ruled benevolently over
all affairs of state and law, oaths and treaties, striking down
enemies with his thunderbolt, while “governing for the good
of the governed,” an unusual concept in today’s world.
The Greek form of Jupiter was Zeus, ruler of gods and
mortals. A statue of this deity from around the 5th century
B.C. was over 40 feet high, richly decorated, and known as
one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. As the
planet Jupiter is a giant in the solar system (almost a small
sun itself), so Jupiter-Zeus shone like a sun in the pantheon
of gods.
There is another reference to tin, this metal of Jupiter,
in Homer’s Odyssey where the hero Odysseus is described as
crossing over to the magic shores of Cornwall, famed for
some of the earliest known tin mines since the Bronze Age.
In the ancient Celtic world tin and bronze were highly prized
and tin from the British Isles travelled through ancient sea
lanes to the Mediterranean and as far afield as the Orient.
lit Metal Magic, Mellie Uyldert tells of the fearless Tar-
tessian and Phoenician seafarers who on their quest for tin
used the Isles of Scilly, “this ancient desolate archipelago” as
a major trading post, exchanging copper, pottery and salt for
the tin brought and stored there by the island inhabitants.
The Romans later called these islands the “Cassiterides In¬
sulae” from which our world for tin-ore cassiterite is
derived, also the Greek word for tin kassiteros and the
Sanskrit kastira. The Romans called tin ‘white lead’ or
plumbum album.
The process of its minin g was recorded by the Roman
Diodorus (8 B.C.) who described how this metal “was hewn
from rocky ground, extracted from the rock by melting, pu¬
rified and poured into moulds,”, the same method used for
thousands of years.
As the Iron Age gradually took over many ancient tin
min es were abandoned and lay silent in the shadow of the
Dark Ages. It was due to Paracelsus, Biringuccio, Leonardo
da Vinci and Agricola (his Re Metallica of 1556), that the old
methods of mining and metallurgy were reintroduced and the
tin min es came to back to their noisy life. By the later Middle
Ages tin was again in co mm on use. Combined with lead it
formed pewter from which household utensils were made, as
well as all the implements of the medieval church. The
horsetail plant, high in silica (and a mineral closely connected
with tin) was used to scour and shine this popular alloy.
While the rich had their bags of gold and silver, small tin
coins were minted in 1558 for “small traders and innkeepers.”
While the rich were bom with the proverbial silver spoon in
their mouths the poor had spoons of tin (both of these metals
incidentally, were known to improve the quality of the food on
which it was served.)
All over Europe metal workers, “all those who work with
the h amm er” had their own guilds, and up until the time of the
industrial revolution gypsy tinkers were a common sight in the
neighbourhood repairing old kettles and recycling any broken
or worn utensils which could easily be melted down and recast
The nobility of tin resists the weathering of time, as pewter
jugs found on board a sunken Swedish ship testify, still in good
condition after more than 300 years under the sea; and tin
objects unearthed after 1800years beneath the city of London
‘shone as new.’
THE SPECIAL PROPERTIES OF TIN
“..in tin strength of form and plasticity of substance are ideally
united.” 2
Tin shines with a silvery sheen, it is a stable metal and does
not oxidise. It has curiously contrasting properties; although
soft and pliable (its softness lies between lead and gold) it has
a a crystalline structure of great inner strength. It also has a
brittle quality; when bent, it makes a crackling sound de¬
scribed as the ‘tin cry 5 as the inner crystals mb against each
other. Researcher Wilhelm Pelikan notes tin’s unusual
tetragonal crystalline structure when compared to the other
six planetary metals which generally crystallize in the form of
small octahedrons.
In contrast to Mercury, tin has the greatest spread be¬
tween its melting point (2320°F) and its boiling point (20680°F).
It strives to maintain its equilibrium between extremes. When
heated it loses its softness to become hard and brittle and then
disintegrates into a powder. At low temperatures instead of
freezing into a more rigid shape it also disintegrates into an
The Journal of Borderland Research November-D icember 1990, Page 1
amorphous powdery substance.
TTiis powder has the curious property of infecting other
tin surfaces it comes into contact with, first by forming
blisters that spread until all the metal ‘sickens’ and disinte¬
grates. This sickness was called the ‘tin plague’ and was the
scourge of tin roofs in the severe cold of winter.
Tin, like the other planets ‘above the sun’ is a poor
conductor of heat and electricity, but as Pelikan mentions, at
the extremely low temperature of
liquid helium it suddenly becomes
‘superconductive.’
Tin is usually found in granite
rock in the form of tin-stone, the
ore cassiterite. Considered to be
the oldest primeval rockfound on
the planet, granite is normally
formed of quartz, feldspar and mica,
but when a vein of tin enters the
rock it destroys the feldspar and
tinstone takes it place; the accom¬
panying flourine minerals change
the surrounding rock and it be¬
comes enjewelled with topaz.
According to Rudolf
Hauschka 3 tin in the earth’s crust
occurs mainly in a ring around the
earth which coincides with the
elliptic, at an angle of 23-1/2 de¬
grees to the equator, in the lands
of Bolivia, Nigeria, Indonesia,
Burma and China. Tin is also
min ed in Malaya (one of the high¬
est producers), Spain, Portugal,
Japan and Tasmania, all of these
areas transmitting through the tin
the forces of the planet Jupiter.
These forces form the tin veins into curious zig-zags in the
rock, like forked ligh tning , the signature of Jupiter’s thun¬
derbolt.
Lilly Kolisko describes Goethe’s fascination with granite
which along with gneiss he considered the archetypal rocks
out of which many other rocks and min erals developed. He
observed that “a remarkable influenceproceeds from the metal
Tin; this has a differentiating influence, and opens a door,
through which a way is provided for different metals to be
formed from primeval rocks." 4
USES OF TIN
Pure tin is quite expensive, it forms less than 2% of the
world’s ores, so we see most tin used in the form of alloys or
as a thin coating to protect and plate other metals. Everyone
is familiar with the humble tin can, where a thin layer is used
to coat iron to prevent it from rusting, and to provide food
with the preserving qualities of Jupiter. Flowers last longer
in a tin vase, and beer (ruled by Jupiter the jovial) is said to
taste better when drunk from a tin mug.
Tin combines easily with other metals such as copper,
zinc and nickel which benefit from its soft and pliable nature,
and also its inner strength. The large heavy bronze church
bells in medieval days were said to be cast from four parts
copper to one part tin. Other musical instruments such as
organ pipes, flutes, cymbals and gongs are made of tin alloys,
evoking the pleasure-loving Jupiter who presides benevo¬
lently over music and musicians.
Tin was a rare and valuable
metal for the Babylonians and
Fgyp tiapSfr gnd jewelry made from
tin has been discovered in old
Persian tombs. The ancient Egyp¬
tians used tin salts as a mordant
for dyeing, and it is put to the
same use in industry today. Al¬
though being colourless itself, tin
has the quality of bringing out the
colour which lies latent in other
substances.
Tin is also widely used as sol¬
der when alloyed with other met¬
als including lead. It fuses metal
to metal, just as the Jupiter-tin
\ force links bone with bone through
the cartilage in the body, or thought
with thought in the realm of the
intellect.
Tinfoil is another common
form of this metal, also once made
by the Romans who used it for
mirrors. Today tin is used in glass-
making, in the silk trade, in weap¬
onry, technology and steelmaking
and as bronze in heavy industry.
The purest tin, Uyldert writes, “is
used in nuclear reactors, and in electronics and space travel:
it is 99.99995% pure.”
TIN IN THE ORGANISM
“In the course of time the planet Jupiter weaves an invisible
Net as it moves in its orbit. This net encloses the Jupiter Sphere.
The influences of this sphere penetrate the whole earth and eve¬
rything within and around it... ” 4
The influences of the Jupiter-tin force in the organism
are shown at work in the shaping or moulding processes of
the body, the development of form from formless embryonic
substance. Describing this process, scientist Lilly Kolisko
writes: “What Nature does is s imil ar to the activity of an
Artist as he moulds some malleable material, such as clay,
into a definite form.” 4
This moulding force works particularly in the muscular
system, moulding the outward form of the body and the soft
organs into a definite shape. Continuing on from this purely
physical process, the tin force expands its sphere of activity to
work in the gradual development of the t hinkin g process,
Page 2, November-December 1990 The Journal of Borderland Research
“...this spiritual activity, with which Man shapes his thoughts,
is not only connected with the forces which mould his brain,
but also with all the shaping activity present in the whole
bodily organization of the human being.” 4
For the ancient Greeks it was Zeus who created the
power of thinkin g and ruled supreme through the cosmic
power of his thoughts. This tremendous creative power is
illustrated in the ancient myth of Pallas Athena, his daughter
who was born springing fully-armed from his fotehead as the
incarnation of wisdom.
While the tin force moulds the body and gives the power
of thinkin g above, it also works in the largest organ in the
body below - the liver. From Plato’s Timeaus we read:
“Zeus formed everything. He shaped the conscious soul
of Man, and the upper part of the human being the head. But
there was one part of Man’s soul which desired not only
thoughts but also food. The gods placed this part in the region
of the diaphragm.. ^Although the lower element works in the
liver, yet this organ can also be in contact with truth. Thus,
within the liver, is the seat of prophecy, and so the Greek seers
look upon the liver as a kind of oracle. This, the liver, is a lower
province of the kingdom of Zeus. Its purpose is to create order
and to cause a lower type of consciousness to prevail within the
lower part of the human being. ”
This organ, or gland, is an place of fluid organization and
equilibrium, a complex chemical laboratory where substances
are broken down and transformed as required, among other
services providing the sugar necessary in the bloodstream for
muscular movement.
There is a higher tin content in the liver than any other
organ, but the greatest amount of tin is found in the mucous
membranes and tongue, another organ of Jupiter with which
we mould our thoughts into words or song.
In the mouth starch is dissolved and changed into sugar,
a process which is reversed in the liver. In the mouth we see
the relationship of tin to flourine, silica and calcium as it is
found in the ancient granite rock, where the tongue and
mucous membranes are together with the teeth, high in
flourine and combined with these other minerals.
JUPITER THE GREAT HEALER
“Tin may be broadly described as a remedy that regulates
opposing fields of force, on the one hand, those that appear in
construction, growth, and swelling and on the other hand those
of solidification and drying up. ” 2
With its powerful beneficent rays Jupiter has always been
regarded as the great healer, in traditional astrology ruling
the liver, the hip joints and pituitary gland. Goethe, who was
so fascinated by tin, often stayed in the region where tin was
mined and said he always felt well and happy there.
While tin as a poison is deposited in the softer parts of the
body such as the liver, the muscles and brain tissue, so these
parts are most susceptible to tin’s healing forces when spe¬
cially prepared.
Homeopathic tin is known by the latin name stannum,
which along with the work tin and the Germanic zinn are
derived from the Celtic ystaen or sten. This remedy strength¬
ens and regenerates. “Its play between fluidity and form
enables tin to intervene between the etheric and the physical
processes.” 2
Stannum can be highly beneficial for disorders of the
liver, for congestion, hardening and cirrhosis, and in illnesses
where the balance of the fluid system is upset, such as in the
brain with hydrocephalus, in meningitis, tuberculosis, and
bronchitis. It is also a remedy for the joints, the cartilage and
ligaments joining the bones, in such degenerative diseases as
arthritis.
JUPITER, TIN & SUNFLOWERS - THE KOLISKO
EXPERIMENTS
To bring the relationship between tin and the planet
Jupiter back into the more rigid discipline of science, we can
turn to the work of Lilly Kolisko who carried out many ex¬
periments with tin salts and published the results back in
1932. They clearly demonstrate the changes occurring in the
crystallization of silver nitrate and tin chloride, or gold
chloride and tin chloride during conjunctions and opposi¬
tions of the Moon and Jupiter, the Sun and Jupiter, conjunc¬
tions of Jupiter and Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, etc. These
studies also showed that the formative forces working in tin
were strongest during midsummer, in the months of June,
July, and August, when there is the greatest light in the
atmosphere.
To explore Jupiter’s influence not only in the metallic
realm but also in the world of plants, Lilly turned to the old
herbals, such as Culpeper’s well known herbal encyclopedia.
In the old herbal tradition, each plant is said to be governed
by a particular planet - it is the embodiment of specific
planetary forces on earth. To explore the truth behind these
occult correspondences, Lilly chose the s unfl ower as a test, a
plant said to be ruled not by the Sun as its name suggests, but
by the planet Jupiter. Steiner had mentioned that the plane¬
tary forces could be seen at work in the colour of the flowers,
for example, the forces of Mars could be seen in the red rose,
Saturn in blue flowers, and Jupiter in white and yellow
flowers.
Having already discovered that solutions of tin are influ¬
enced by and reflect the forces of Jupiter, Lilly carried out
experiments involving tin and sunflowers. She made dishes
out of the various metals, filled them with rainwater and
placed seeds from the same sunflower in each. She discov¬
ered that the seeds in the tin dish started germinating first
after only 24 hours, twice as fast as Mercury and over three
times as fast as lead.
In another series of experiments Lilly treated the sun¬
flower seeds with the seven different metallic salts, from the
1st to the 60th potency, over 2000 plants in one experiment
alone. Again, the seeds treated with tin were taller, stronger
and healthier than the others and, in fact, the sunflowers
treated with the Sun’s metal gold grew quite poorly.
To take this study a step further, Lilly also germinated
seeds during the opposition of Jupiter with the Moon and
The Journal of Borderland Research November-Demn .ber 1990, Page 3
during the conjunction of these two planets. Using tin chlo¬
ride she discovered that the sunflowers grew much higher and
better during the conjunction of Jupiter and the Moon, than
during their opposition. Even the control plants in rainwater
grew better during the conjunction.
Exactly the same experiments were carried out with other
plants of Jupiter including marigolds, with Jupiter’s golden-
yellow flowers, and maple tree seedlings said by Culpeper to
be ruled by Jupiter. Again the best results were obtained with
tin chloride at the conjunction of Jupiter and the Moon.
These studies of Lilly’s, done with her husband Eugen,
which are detailed in their wonderful book Agriculture of
Tomorrow, give a new perspective to an ancient field of
knowledge that deserves much wider recognition among
modem scientists and farmers than it has so far received.
JUPITER - THE “LIGHT-BRINGER”
One of the most interesting things about tin, and some¬
thing that sheds some light on the deeper nature of Jupiter’s
metal is its affinity for silica - first as quartz in the granite
where tin-veins are found, then again in the organism where
the shaping processes of tin and silicic acid are intercon¬
nected “to create and maintain the boundary between the
inner and outer world.” High concentrations of tin and silica
are found in the skin, our own individual physical boundary
with the world. Silica is also present in the eyes which allow
the outer light to penetrate within.
That silica is connected with light is obvious, as anyone
can see who has gazed into the clear depths of a pure rock
crystal which, “like a sense organ, is fully open and pervious
to the cosmic forces, to light, to warmth.” 2 We even find
silica’s companion tin-ore in crystalline rather than metallic
form, sometimes transparent but usually discoloured with
dark-brown or black.
Silica is found in the organism in the brain and nervous
system, and it is the biochemical cell salt attributed to the sign
of Sagittarius ruled by the planet Jupiter. Silica is a substance
that enables the light forces of the cosmos to permeate the
body and the earth, as demonstrated by further experiments
of the Koliskos, and brings to min d one of the most ancient
names for Jupiter which is Luce tins, the light-bringer. In Italy
he was worshipped on the summit of high bills closest to the
sky and the light.
In the sign for Jupiter the lunar crescent is rising above
the cross of the four elements, which alchemically symbolizes
the soul freeing itself from the earth forces and becoming
receptive to the light of the spirit.
This is reflected in the qabalistic tradition where Jupiter
rules the sphere called the ‘Receptive Intelligence,’ the fourth
cosmic power zone on the Tree of Life. With the image of a
mighty king - the law-giver - this is described as the sphere
where the archetypal idea is formed, giving our ability to form
abstract concepts which are then brought down and ‘earthed’
in the world through action, or in occult terms, “it is here the
adept receives the inspirations which he works out on the
planes of form.” 5
The inspiration or light of Jupiter is transmitted through
his thunderbolt, through the electrical lightning charge he
hurls toward the earth, as, for example, in the Tibetan system
through the ceremonial and radionic instrument called the
dorje, which means ‘thunderbolt.’ In the Hindu tradition he
takes the form of Indra, the lord of fire and lightning, or the
Scandanavian Thor with thunderbolt in hand, empowering
the visions of prophets, philosophers, great teachers, and
artists.
Astrologically Jupiter is said to embody the principle of
expansion, and individuals with tbteplanet working strongly
in their horoscopes are expansive; intuitive, jovial, often
outspoken and eager to explore the world whether intellec¬
tually, emotionally or through the senses. The half-animal,
half-human centaur of Sagittarius perfectly symbolizes the
dual nature of Jupiter, on one hand expanding and develop¬
ing the higher mental and creative powers as Jupiter, the
teacher or initiator, ‘seeds’ the consciousness of the student
with the light of higher knowledge and universal laws.
On the other hand the negative influence of Jupiter
replaces truth and justice with hypocrisy and tyranny, and
pleasure of the senses with the greed which drives our con¬
sumer society deeper into a staggering debt. Not surprisingly,
the pleasure-loving Jupiter rules over vineyards and was a
much celebrated god of wine - but it’s well known that too
much wine damages Jupiter’s own organ, the liver.
Amon was the Egyptian Jupiter known in his form of
Amsu as phallic and virile, like Jupiter who was notorious for
seducing and impregnating many, many goddesses in the
Roman pantheon - as tin easily joins to alloy with other
metals especially giving its strength and hardness to copper,
the soft metal of Venus. (Curiously, photographs of the giant
red spot on the planet Jupiter’s surface look remarkably like
the female sexual organ - on a cosmic scale!) The creative
energy of Jupiter is said to spiritualize the flesh through the
tr ansmis sion of his sacred fire (or thunderbolt) of life, the
energy necessary for the continuation and evolution of the
human race.
This recalls Goethe’s observation of the metal tin, whose
influence ‘opens a door’ and provides a way for the evolution
and metamorphosis of other metals from primeval rock.
Without the light of Jupiter, the soul would remain im¬
prisoned within the darkness of the earth.

JACK DERBY
MR. FIX-IT / NEW AGE INVENTOR
by Harry Davis
The Boeing 707 had just completed
loading the last passenger, the flight crew
had finished their pre-flight check, and the
captain signalled to the ground crewman
that he was ready to start number one en¬
gine. Acknowledging the signal, the ground
crewman pushed the switch on the control
panel of the ground equipment aircraft en¬
gine starter. Nothing happened! He pushed
the switch harder. Again nothing happened!
The crewman yelled to his assistant,
“Don, check all your connections. We’ve got
to get this starter rolling. This flight is al¬
ready 20 minutes late.”
The assistant made a quick check and
yelled back, “Everything okay at this end,
Charlie.”
The lead crewman muttered something
and again pressed the starter switch. Dead
as a doornail! He took a quick glance toward
the cockpit and saw the captain waving his
hand.
“Don,” he yelled. “Get Derby on the
phone and tell him to get out here right
away.”
In about three minutes a pick-up truck
appeared in the distance racing toward the
parked airliner. As the truck came to an
abrupt stop beside the ground equipment, a
man jumped out and ran up to the lead
crewman. The lead man quickly explained
the situation. The other man stood quietly
for a moment, his eyes scanning the starter
and his hands touching the control panel.
“Okay, Charlie,” he said softly. “We
have to open the panel There’s a loose wire
inside.”
“Let’s do it, Jack,” the lead man replied.
Both men hurriedly unfastened the
front of the control panel. Jack took a quick
glance inside at the maze of complicated-
looking wiring and instantly spotted a wire
hanging loosely from a terminal board He
quickly attached the wire to its proper place
on the board, stepped back and said, “Okay,
Charlie. That should do it. Let’s button up
and start it.”
The front panel was quickly fastened
and Charlie pressed the start switch again.
Immediately, the turbine in the ground
equipment began to accelerate causing pres¬
surized air to fill the pneumatic hose. At that
point the captain pressed a switch on the
aircraft permitting the air to flow through
number one engine.
Who is this man Jack Derby who can
diagnose ar correct an electrical problem
by just looking at and feeling the equipment?
In 1961 Jack Derby was a young me¬
chanic working for a major airline in Tucson,
Arizona. He had a reputation throughout
the airlines industry as “Mr. Fix-It” Jack
was kept busy not only in Tucson keeping
electrical and mechanical ground equip¬
ment working but also in answering calls
from airlines facilities throughout the coun¬
try telling him, “to bring your magic wand
over here, pronto.”
However, fixing the equipment was not
always that easy. In feet, Jack went through
a period when he literally couldn’t fix even
the simplest malfunction. But let Jack ex¬
plain himself.
“With the advent of the jet age, we re¬
ceived some very highly tech ground equip¬
ment for servicing the new jet engines. But
even though we had little or no technical
manuals or literature explaining how the
equipment worked, somehow I could always
manage to figure out what was wrong and fix
it.”
“My boss was very impressed with my
ability and wanted to know just how I was
able to fix things so easily, particularly since I
had no previous training as an aircraft or
ground equipment mechanic. I just told him
that all you needed was a scientific mind and
a little common sense. Shortly afterward, he
made me a plant maintenance, automotive
mechanic, and I was very pleased with my¬
self. Then all of a sudden my “fix-it” ability
left me. I couldn’t fix anything! I even had
trouble doing a simple tune-up.”
“Things kept getting worse; and if it
hadn’t been for my partner Charlie, I would
probably have been fired. After four
months, I was really desperate! Oh, I prayed
but I felt that God wasn’t hearing me. Fi¬
nally, one night I happened to open the Bible
and it leaped out at me in a flash of light: n
Chronicles, chapter 7, verses 14-17. And as
I read those verses, I knew then that God had
heard me because contained in those verses
was the answer that I had been seeking.”
“I interpreted those verses as stating
that a man had to be humble in everything he
does. To make certain that I knew what
humbleness was, I decided to try meditating.
After quieting my mind, I concentrated
upon the wore humblppess’ and asked God
what did He mean, ftieard the answer
immediately. Humbleness is a state of con¬
sciousness created when the powers of love
and wisdom meet in the solar plexus. You
will definitely feel it when you have it”
“That night I felt love and wisdom flow¬
ing into my solar plexus. I experienced a
strange sensation of tingling and warmth in
my stomach area and above, and I knew that
I was feeling that state of consciousness the
Voice in my mediation had told me I would
- humbleness! That night I slept soundly
and untroubled. The next morning I went to
work knowing that I had the power of God in
my heart and my hands. I worked with the
‘power of humbleness*. I learned to feel it
Whenever I came upon equipment that
wasn’t working, I would walk around the
equipment and thank God, knowing that I
wasn’t doing the fixing but that it was God
working through me. I would then touch the
equipment and it would work. Sometimes it

For the past twenty-nine years - with
the help and encouragement of his wife
Marolyn - Jack has worked steadily to per¬
fect his method of going within to contact
God, or his Higher Self as some would term
it. Jack does not go into a trance. He calls his
method of contact “conscious meditation.”
Probably, In New Age vernacular he would
be called a conscious medium.
In addition to being able to consciously
contact his Higher Self while in the medita¬
tive state, Jack believes that he is able to con¬
sciously contact disembodied entities who
have identified themselves as guardian an¬
gels or spiritual Masters. Such ability while
not new is, undoubtedly, rare - or was classi¬
fied as rare up until the literal explosion of
New Age thought and channeling during the
past ten years.
Throughout the centuries, there have
been many recorded instances of living per¬
sons talking with “angels” which some
people would state is another name for dis-
The Journal of Borderland Research November-December 1990, Page 5
embodied entities. The bible cites numer¬
ous examples of such contacts. Closer to our
present time, George Washington, our first
president, is said to have talked with an angel
who gave him visions of three great wars that
would engulf the United States. From the
period of 1919 to 1949, the noted author
Alice Bailey is reputed to have maintained
telepathic contact with the Tibetan Master
Djwhal Kuhl, *uch contact resulting in the
publication of some twenty-five books on
esoteric philosophy.
Two of today’s most noted exponents of
contact with disembodied entities are the
Seth series of books by Jane Roberts and the
publications of Elizabeth Clare Prophet, the
co-founder of the present-day “I AM THAT
I AM” movement which is reputed to have
more than a million followers throughout
the world. Ms. Prophet states that she is in
contact with various Ascended Masters and
has published a considerable volume of
books as well as video and audio tapes re¬
portedly documenting such contacts. As to
be expected, each of the aforementioned
ladies has her enthusiastic supporters and
vociferous detractors. One positive reviewer
states, “that these books reveal a depth and
breadth of understanding and insight into
the human psyche of a magnitude beyond
mere mortal knowledge. These writings are
truly inspiring and contain a profound mes¬
sage for humanity regardless of whom the
authors may truly be.” On the flip side of the
philosophical coin there are others who
think that such books are pure fantasy.
Because of a driving desire to help
mankind, Jack says he has been permitted to
bring forth technical information from his
spiritual Sources (whom we shall call Teach¬
ers) enabling him to design instrumentation
quite revolutionary in concept and utiliza¬
tion. His main developmental achievement
is an electronic/electro-magnetic type of in¬
strument which he calls the Violet Ray Crys¬
tal Resonator, or VRCR. The VRCR is
designed as a high frequency, very low cur¬
rent instrument which emits “pulses” of
what Jack calls “violet” electro-magnetic
radiation through a specially-designed
quartz crystal glass electrode.
In developing his Violet Ray Crystal
Resonator, Jack had to develop his own
unique version of a well-known high fre¬
quency component called the tesla coil.
Jack's coil is not wound and assembled ex¬
actly like a tesla coil, but it does act like a tesla
coil in the extremely high voltage amplifica¬
tion attained. Jack also studied under the
tutelage of a British researcher and inventor
Harry Oldfield (reference THE DARK
SIDE OF THE BRAIN by Harry Oldfield
and Roger Coghill, published by Element
Books, Ltd., Longmead, Shaftesbury,
Dorset, England). Jack has considerably
improved upon Oldfield's original “Electro-
Crystal” system which Oldfield developed in
the 1970s.
Jack's Violet Ray Crystal Resonator
was designed to be used, initially, to balance
the energy flow at various key locations on
the human body, such locations being known
as chakras in eastern philosophical literature
and, more recently, as power centers in some
western literature. However, continuous
improvements in the VRCR design now
enable it to be used, also, as an educational
tool for raising the level of one’s conscious
awareness.
Using a sensitive sound level meter eas¬
ily obtained from Radio Shack, Jack is able
to measure the noise level of sound waves
emitted by the human body. Jack gives an
easily understandable, practical demonstra¬
tion that the radiation transmitted by the
VRCR is absorbed by the body, such energy
absorption causing a change in the noise
level measurements as detected by the
sound level meter.
For example, with the VRCR turned on
and transmitting, the subject holds the glass
electrode in one hand. Jack will then hold
the sound level meter adjacent to a desig¬
nated “neutral” point on the subject’s body
and check the reading as shown by the me ter.
In most cases Jack is able to adjust the out¬
put of the VRCR so that the pointer of the
meter will hold steady at the mid-point of
zero when the meter range setting is at 80
decibels. Jack will then move the meter to
positions on the body where the chakras are
supposed to be located, and the reading of
the meter is checked again at each of these
positions. Jack has found that the meter
readings at these various positions will usu¬
ally vary between zero and plus or minus 4.
Depending upon the position and its corre¬
sponding meter reading the VRCR output is
adjusted to the desired frequency band and
modulation frequency. The subject contin¬
ues to hold the glass electrode for a few
moments; then that position is checked
again with the meter. Again, in practically
every case Jack has encountered and regard¬
less how much the meter pointer was to the
left or right of the zero point when the first
meter reading was taken, this second meter
reading will show the pointer to be at the
zero point.
In additioniomaking measurements at
body locations corresponding to the various
chakras, measurements are also made at
points adjacent to various organs and at acu¬
puncture points. Jack believes that these
measurements give an indication of the bal¬
ance or imbalance of the body's so-called
“bio-electric field” at each measured point.
In the foregoing example, when the second
meter reading indicates zero, Jack will tell
you that the energy flow of the body's bio¬
electric field at that particular point is in
balance.
There is another demonstration that
Jack gives during his lecture that some
people would consider “mind blowing” and
some scientists would consider impossible or
“poppycock.” And just why is such a demon¬
stration so startling and controversial? Be¬
cause Jack says the demonstration is de¬
signed to substantiate the statement that the
VRCR can amplify a person's thought
waves! But you realty have to see that dem¬
onstration and decide for yourself.
Jack Derby recently celebrated his
thirty-third year as a mechanic for that same
major airline in Tucson. He still uses his Mr.
Fix-It ability to keep the jet engine ground
equipment working property which, in turn,
keeps those large commercial airliners safety
flying. During his “leisure” time, Jack con¬
tinues to use his special talents to improve
upon his Violet Ray Crystal Resonator as
well as invent other New Age type of instru¬
mentation aimed at benefitting mankind.

An Apparatus For
DETECTING EMANATIONS FROM PLANETS
Buryi Payne
A simple apparatus has been discovered
which can be used to detect direct emana¬
tions from the visible planets, Sun and
Moon. The apparatus is shown in Figure 1
mounted on a six-inch reflecting telescope.
It is simply a five inch diameter, six foot long
stove pipe with an automotive funnel at the
end. The funnel, available at Sears automo¬
tive stores, has a flexible metal tube. A clock
drive keeps the device focused on the object
of interest. The detecting substance is a
small amount of water in a glass bottle at¬
tached to the end of the flexible tube.
The present means of detection is taste.
BACKGROUND
The basic idea for this device came from
the study of the work of Wilhelm Reich’s
writings on Orgone energy and cloud-
busters. What Reich called Orgone energy
strongly interacted with water. His cloud-
busters were long metal tubes pointed at
clouds and attached by hollow flexible BX
cables to running water. Reich claimed that
the water had to be running in order to move
the Orgone energy. According to Reich this
apparatus altered the Orgone energy of the
local atmosphere and could produce rain, as
he demonstrated on several occasions.
In seeking a way to validate the notions
of astrology, the author formulated the hy¬
pothesis that planets could be giving off ema¬
nations of some sort which Reich’s cloud-
buster could detect. The author thought
that perhaps Reich’s cloudbusters were ac¬
tually picking up emanations from planets or
celestial objects and not from clouds as he
believed.
Instead of allowing the energy or what¬
ever to dissipate in running water, it seemed
more worthwhile to collect it, if possible, for
analysis.
OTHER VERSIONS OF THE DEVICE
The first device was constructed about
1973. The stove pipe in the first device was
only three feet long. A tiny hole in the funnel
near the exit tube allowed the observer to
focus on the planet of interest. Later the
stove pipe was wrapped with a wool blanket
following Reich’s work with Orgone accu¬
mulators which used layers of soft iron and
wool to accumulate Orgone energy. The wa¬
ter was held in a small metal, glass, or plastic
bottle attached by a couple of strips of velcro
to the end of the funnel. This initial appara¬
tus called “The Moon Gun” by my friends,
had to be moved every few minutes to keep
the planet within focus.
Another version of the “Moon Gun”
consisted of 4 iron pipes, two inches in di¬
ameter and eight feet long and connected
together by a stainless steel bowl with a short
piece of flexible metal conduit to guide the
planetary emanations into the sample water
bottle. This device was quite heavy, but
could be moved in two directions by a swivel
and frame arrangement. Rather bizarre
looking, as it sat in the front lawn for several
years, it seemed to be successful at keeping
intruders off the property -- a sort of scien¬
tific scarecrow.
Yet another version of the “Moon Gun”
was made by arranging 60 feet of 3/4 inch
diameter copper pipe into a spiral helix. The
wide end of the spiral was about 6 feet in
diameter and the length of the helix was
about 9 feet. The pipe was simply bent
straight back at the apex and a pan of water
was placed in contact with the pipe. This
version was immovable. It was tied between
a tree and a telephone pole on the garage
roof, with the open end pointed at the plane
of the ecliptic. It was rather inconvenient to
use as it required getting up at the hour of
the night when the planet of interest was
within the focus of the spiral. It was viewed
with some suspicion by neighbors and tele¬
phone officials but no dire consequences
occurred.
RESULTS
All the devices worked. Effects, as indi¬
cated by changes in taste were noticed after
about twenty minutes exposure. Drinking
the water produced psychophysiological ef¬
fects within 10 to 20 minutes.
However taste changes or effects were
not invariably present: sometimes they were
very noticeable, and at other times they were
barely observable or non-existent. Many
different tests were made over a period of
more than ten years. Observations so far
should be considered more like a pilot study;
however they are reported here so that
someone with more time or facilities might
build on them. It was hoped that some way
to increase the effect might be discovered,
which would enable a more systematic analy¬
sis to be undertaken, and chemical tests of
the water to be made. So far this hasn’t
happened, but perhaps some reader will hit
upon an improvement in the design which
would make the effects much stronger.
The data is organized into observations
made on the Sun, Moon, and some of the
planets. The data reported below was taken
from my note books made over more than
ten years time from three different locations
in Massachusetts - Framingham, Boston,
and Manomet
SUN
Nov. 1,1974,12 noon. Just completed
the 4-barrelled version. Directed it at the
Sun for 20 minutes and both myself and my
friend who helped build the instrument,
drank the water. Within 15 minutes we both
felt like taking a nap, and fell asleep on
cushions on the living room floor. Although
we had been up late working on it, it is rare
for me to take naps.
Summer, 1975. Gave water, which had
been exposed to the Sun, to my son, aged 6,
who had measles and was supposed to be
quiet and in bed and would not do so. He
quickly fell asleep and slept all afternoon.
Fall, 1975. Exposed water to Sun for 20
minutes and gave it to a friend with no expla¬
nation or mention of its source. She drank it
and fell asleep for two hours.
Jan. 18, 1976. Tap water samples ex¬
posed in device to Sun radiation appeared
cloudy after 20 minutes exposure. This
water, like most water used in the experi¬
ments, was in a glass bottle.
March, 1978. Pointed short tube and 4-
barrelled device at the Sun. It was the day of
the full moon and there was a lunar eclipse.
The water tasted terrible! Five observers
were present and all agreed that the water
had a strong, unpleasant taste. The water
produced a temporary feeling of nausea
when drunk. When one observer com¬
mented that the water tasted like burnt rub¬
ber, everyone, including me, emphatically
agreed. The taste was very strong. No
rubber like material was anywhere near or in
the device.
People were generally upset at the time
of this eclipse. Almost everyone I had con¬
tact with on this day felt mildly ill, irritable, or
The Journal of Borderland Research November-December 1990, Page 7
‘out of sorts*.
Many water samples were exposed. It
was found that a metal cover over the front
of the tube stopped the effect However a
control bottle of water left sitting in the
driveway showed the same taste difference
although to a lesser degree. An ordinary
metal funnel, propped up in the shade with
its stem in a bottle of water produced some
mild taste of‘burnt rubber*. Placing a cork at
the end of the funnel stem stopped the taste
effect Simply leaving a bottle of water sitting
for an hour in the kitchen showed a mild
taste, but putting a bottle in the refrigerator
completely eliminated any taste difference.
This was an unusual and, for many, a
difficult day. Probably
all water everywhere
was altered around the
time of this lunar
eclipse.
Prior to 1980, ob¬
servations were made
with either the 4-bar-
relled device or the
short cloudbuster de¬
vice. After that year
the longer tube
mounted on a tele¬
scope support was
used (Figure 1).
Jan. 26,1980. Di¬
rected the apparatus
(Figure 1) at the Sun
which was just rising. A
strong taste was notice¬
able in the water. (IPs
very difficult to de¬
scribe these tastes in
any meaningful way.
About the most that I can record is their
strength.) No effects were noticed from
drinking the water.
As a control, left a sample bottle of
water open at the top, in the shade. No taste
was noticeable after 30 minutes.
Then directed the apparatus at the Sun,
now much higher in the sky, and observed a
strong, but different taste in the water.
As another type of control I pointed the
instrument at the pine trees and left it for one
hour. The water tasted like pine trees! I was
so amazed by this that at first I thou ght it was
my imagination. However it was a very clear
and strong taste. (A pine tree taste was not
observed on another occasion.)
Left the device pointed at the sky above
the horizon where the Sun had risen earlier.
The clock drive was not engaged. After sev¬
eral hours exposure the water had a strong
and peculiar taste.
Followingthis I pointed the device at the
wall of the house and left it for over an hour.
There was a slight taste in the water.
Then I moved the apparatus to where I
judged Venus should be, knowing from the
table how far it was from the Sun. A strong
taste was noticeable.
All tastes today were strong and differ¬
ent from each other.
Sunday, Jan. 27, 1980. Pointed the
apparatus at the Sun which was about 10°
above the horizon. A strong taste was ob¬
served.
Left apparatus pointed at the same
place above the horizon although the Sun
had moved on. After a 35 minute exposure
Figure 1
only a slight taste (similar in quality to the
previous taste effect) was noticeable.
Left apparatus pointed at the same
place (10° above the horizon) for two hours.
A mild taste was present in the water. No
noticeable effects were observed from
drinking the water.
Possibly the strong tastes observed on
the previous day were related to more solar
and geomagnetic activity. From the solar-
geophysical data records published by
NOAAI found: “[solar] Region 2245 pro¬
duced a class X2 X-ray burst on 27 January
with maximum at 11:52 Universal Time.**
Sunspot number went from 103 on Jan. 25th
to 153 on Jan. 26th and 160 on Jan. 27th.
March 1, 1980. There was a lunar
eclipse at 4 pm. Pointed the gun at the Sun
at sunrise. The taste was described as
“thick” by an observer. No psychophysiol-
ogical effects noticed. At 12:30 noon re¬
peated the observation. A strong taste was
again apparent.
At 2:30 pm repeated the test. Mean¬
while the sky had become hazy, and the tube
had drifted slightly off focus. No noticeable
taste and no effect on me.
August 9,1980. At 3 pm aimed smaller
device at the Sun. It was one day before a
solar eclipse. No apparent taste was noticed,
but afterwards I was so sleepy I couldn’t
concentrate on my work, although I forced
myself to stay 4wake. It was one of the
hottest days of summer. Finally at 6:301 did
take a nap.
August 10, 1980, 11 am. Sun water
(from the apparatus) produced a slight taste
- not pleasant - and no
effects noticed from
drinking it
The daily Sunspot
number went from
139, (on August 7) to
142,154, and reached a
minor peak of 169 on
August 10.
February 18,
1981. Set up both
short and long tube
devices to point at the
Sun. (It was near the
time of the full moon.)
A 30 minute exposure
produced a strong ac¬
rid taste. My stomach
felt slightly upset about
15 minutes later.
I pointed one ap¬
paratus at the sky, the
other one at rock steps
asacontrol. Iexpected
no taste if it was the Sun which was radiating
something into the tube, but after a 25 min¬
ute exposure strong but different tastes were
noticeable from the water from both de¬
vices. As a second control I stuffed towels in
the end of both tubes and left them for one
hour. Both water samples still tasted differ¬
ent from a control bottle of water left sitting
on a nearby rock.
From the NOAA reports I found that
Sunspot number was on the increase this
day; the geomagnetic activity was low and
the 2800 mHz (10.7 cm) radiation from the
Sun was at a relative peak. (See observations
following under “Moon” on this same date -
Feb. 18,1981.)
September 10,1981. Aimed big appara¬
tus at the Sun. It was nearing the time of the
full moon. I noticed a slight taste difference
in the water, but two observers did not notice
any difference between a control water
Page 8, November-December 1990 The Journal of Borderland Research
sample which had been sitting nearby and
the test samples which were from the appa¬
ratus. Repeated the test observations three
times with no positive results.
Full Moon, Feb. 14, 1976. Concen¬
trated emanations in sample bottle of water
using smallest apparatus. It tasted like tap
water which it was. After a few minutes I felt
slightly nauseous. Did not notice any psy-
chophysiological effects.
Many full Moon observations were
made in the early years which generally gave
the same effects - a slight feeling of nausea
after drinking the water. Sometimes a taste
change was evident and sometimes not.
March 1,1981. Full Moon eclipse and
Moon conjunct Mars and Jupiter. The water
had a noticeable taste, and no psychophysiol-
ogical effects.
December 20,1980. Water exposed to
the full Moon this evening had no apparent
taste, but I felt buoyant afterwards even
though I had been driving into the city with
traffic hassles all day. Sitting by the fire, I was
feeling cheerful and optimistic. Since usually
after a day of city traffic I would feel tired,
this was unusual.
February 18, 1981. A very bright and
not unpleasant full moon for most people.
At 7 pm I exposed the water in the collector
bottle to the Moon’s emanations for 20
minutes, then drank it. No discernible taste.
I felt slightly tipsy, spaced, and was scared of
my friend’s driving as we left in the car. I felt
I needed to hold on, hold together - never
had this experience before.
April 13, 1981. Pointed apparatus at
Moon at 7 pm. Moon was not full. A definite
taste was noticed; not a good taste. No
noticeable effects. According to NOAA
reports the geomagnetic field showed rapid
fluctuations on this day.
April 18, 1981. Moon nearly full and
partially obscured by clouds. Noticeable
taste, but no psychophysiological effects.
July 6, 1982. There was to be a lunar
eclipse in the early morning of the next day.
About 10 pm I set up the apparatus with a
new funnel which had been washed in the
automatic dishwasher to clear it of the film of
oil present when it was purchased.
After 20 minutes exposure to the Moon,
a taste difference was clearly apparent. An
unpleasant taste, hard to describe or com¬
pare with common tastes. I repeated the
water exposure to the Moon several times.
Two observers present also confirmed a
clear taste difference. Around 11 pm I drank
the water from the last test period and went
to prepare for bed. My wife said: “Your
energy is funny - You’re kind of intrusive.”
I did feel slightly energetic and bumbly -
kind of scattered and irritable.
At 2:15 am I arose to make observations
at the time of the eclipse. The Moon was
about 2/3 covered when I went outside. The
apparatus had been tracking the Moon all
night with water in the sample bottle for
about three hours. It had a much stronger
taste than it had earlier in the evening and of
the same quality - not a pleasant taste. I
drank the entire bottle, then filled it again
and drank it after twelve minutes exposure
to the full Moon which was now totally
eclipsed. No obvious psychophysiological
effects noticed. I stayed up the rest of the
night, making several tests. The water con¬
tinued to have a strong taste at every test
made until dawn.
NEW MOON AND SOLAR ECLIPSE
OBSERVATIONS
June 17,1980. There was a New Moon
conjunct Neptune, square Saturn. At Noon
a sample of water was exposed to the Sun for
about 35 minutes. I drank the water which
tasted acrid and bitter and went inside to
type. About 12 minutes later I became irri¬
table. Hearing some terrible singer on the
radio I swore, screamed and angrily shut the
radio off, then drove away in my car. As I was
driving I was fantasizing punching some guy
who had slightly irritated me about some¬
thing. About four miles up the road I psy¬
chologically woke up! I realized what had
happened. I had drunk that water! When I
had that realization the anger left me and I
completed my errand and planned to repeat
the experiment.
At 4 pm I repeated the experiment. The
water did not taste as strong as previously. I
made a mental resolution to go down to the
beach and throw rocks if I felt irritable. I
went to my lab to work. Again, in about 15
minutes I became very irritable, completely
forgetting my drinking the water and my
resolve to throw rocks. Again the radio was
on and I found a commercial so irritating I
swore at the radio and angrily turned it off.
Then I remembered the experiment, the
water, and my resolve to go throw rocks.
It was amazing, upon recollection, to
notice how the mood change took me over,
subtly and unawares. I just seemed to drift
from a normal pleasant mood to one of great
irritability without the slightest awareness.
This was the strongest psychological
effect I ever obtained from the water
samples exposed in my devices.
A control sample made by pointing the
instrument at the sky had no taste or effect
on me. Later I did recall that a radio astrolo¬
ger had stated that this would be an angry
new moon.
June 17, (year not noted). Moon two
days old in Leo near a bright star, and 5°
from Jupiter. Strong taste was observed
from both smaller and larger apparatus.
Noticed a continuously rising galvanic skin
response from biofeedback equipment al¬
though I attempted to relax. No subjective
feelings.
October 6,1984,9 am. Pointed instru¬
ment at Sun-Moon a&4t was a new moon.
Drank the water after 45 minutes exposure.
After about 15 minutes I felt peculiar - kind
of woozy and unfocused, as if I’d had three
glasses of wine. After about 15 minutes this
feeling dissipated.
Refilled the sample bottle and after 40
minutes exposure, gave the water to a visitor.
She felt “high” in about 10 minutes and the
effect disappeared when she swam in the
cold ocean water ten minutes later.
VENUS
After the Sun and Moon, Venus was the
most predominate planet to study. Effects
were noticed in the first years, although no
specific notes were made. On several occa¬
sions the water tasted metallic. I sometimes
felt a little giddy, as if I’d had a glass of wine.
One time the exposed water was given to a
female friend. She too, experienced some
giddiness, and a metallic taste.
To test whether or not suggestion could
be operating, the following night Venus was
again bright and I set up the apparatus, and
a few minutes later brought the sample of
water to her, exclaiming how brilliant Venus
was; that the effect should be very strong and
wonderful this nite, etc. Then I let her drink
the water, which was plain tap water, and left
the room. Returning 30 minutes later I
asked her what happened. She said she
didn’t notice anything. “Sorry to disappoint
you, Buryi, but I didn’t feel anything.”
Some specific comments from my note¬
books follow:
Jan 12, (year not noted), 5:40 pm.
Venus was the highest and brightest for the
six month period. There was a slight taste
and after drinking the water I felt kind of
excited and zippy.
Jan 26,1980,6 pm. Pointed the instru¬
ment at Venus. The water had a strong
taste. (On this date all tests made showed
effects - sunspots were on the increase.)
March 19, 1980. Moon was conjunct
Venus. No taste in sample water.
August 13,1980. Arose at 4 am to make
a test. Venus was very bright. The water
tasted terrible. I went back to sleep and had
The Journal of Borderland Research Novernber-December 1990 , Page 9
a sexy dream - a rare event for me.
October 5,1980,6 am. Moon was con¬
junct Venus. It was foggy. There was a
noticeable taste difference, but no psy-
chophysiological effect. I may have pointed
the tube incorrectly since I later noticed the
telescope used to sight on the planet was
slightly out of line with the tube.
November 26, 1984. Moon conjunct
both Venus and Jupiter; a lovely sight. I
exposed the water for about 20 minutes.
Noticed a metallic taste, and about 15 min¬
utes later I felt sad. Just listening to the news
on the radio triggered some crying. I had felt
kind of quiet and low all day.
November 29, 1986, 5:30 am. Moon
conjunct Venus which was very bright at half
phase low in the Eastern sky. The Moon was
about 4° underneath Venus and 1° South.
Made an exposure for 20 minutes. There
appeared to be a slight taste just on the
surface of the water sample (something I
had often noticed - a surface taste only).
There were no noticeable psychophysiologi-
cal effects.
The test was repeated but with the tele¬
scope focused on the Moon which was two
days before new. No noticeable taste, but
my heart felt sore. Could I be imagining this?
Chest area around the heart was not really
sore, just much feeling - a tightness. A few
minutes later happened to read something
which triggered crying.
I would have considered this experience
to be personal and irrelevant until I hap¬
pened to look at my notebook and see the
similarity with the test made almost exactly
two years before.
JUPITER
Initial observations on Jupiter, espe¬
cially when Jupiter was close to Earth, pro¬
duced a taste characteristically different
from Venus, Sun, or Moon. On two occa¬
sions the water tasted ‘punky* or ‘swampy*.
Only two weeks after these observations
Science News carried a report that sulphur
had been detected in the radio emissions of
Jupiter.
Sometimes the water from Jupiter
tasted good and seemed to have a beneficial
effect on the drinker. I noticed that a slightly
upset stomach cleared up immediately after
drinking Jupiter water. One time a pot had
been placed for about an hour at the end of
the large copper spiral device while Jupiter
had been in view.
An associate came into the office about
8 pm, said she wasn’t feeling well. I gave her
a glass of Jupiter water to drink without
telling her what it was. About 30 minutes
Page 10, November-December 1990
later she asked what was in the water. She
said she felt better. If this were only one
isolated incident, it could have been dis¬
missed, but it happened several times.
JUPITER-SATURN
In 1980 Jupiter and Saturn were within
a few degrees of each other. A number of
tests were made during this year and some of
the observations from my notebook are re¬
corded below.
December 20, 1980. Full Moon Eve¬
ning. Returned home from a party at 2:40
am, tired and sleepy, especially after a 45
minute car ride. At 3 am I drank the water
which had been exposed for 25 minutes to
the combined effect of Jupiter and Saturn.
No taste was apparent. I took a shower and
went to bed, but could not sleep for over one
hour - very restless.
December 31,1980,5 am. The time of
closest approach of Jupiter to Saturn was at
4 pm that afternoon. There was no apparent
taste to the water after exposure to emana¬
tions of Jupiter and Saturn simultaneously,
but afterwards I felt frustrated. I could not
definitely say the effect was due to the water
which I had drunk, but I was angry, frus¬
trated, upset, and pacing around the room.
If it had not been 10° outside I would have
gone for a run.
February 16,1981. Pointed both large
and small devices at Jupiter and Saturn. No
noticeable effects. But is was hard to be sure
of their aim.
February 17, 1981, in the evening.
Water did not have any taste, but I felt
charged up and eager to work. Stayed up
late.
February 18,1981. Same effect noticed.
It was later in the evening when I made the
test.
As these planets separated I could easily
differentiate between the two with the in¬
strument.
July 9, 1982. First set the scope on
Jupiter and found water sample had a very
slight taste. Then changed the water sample
bottle to be sure there was no contamina¬
tion, and thoroughly rinsed the end of the
funnel.
Then the scope was focused on Saturn.
After 20 minutes I observed a distinctly dif¬
ferent taste-kind of bitter-metallic. This is
a familiar taste observed in the water from
these tests, but many controls have shown it
is not coming from the metal end of the
funnel. Although the tastes were different I
didn’t notice any psychophysical reactions
from either the Jupiter or the Saturn water
on this occasion.

SATURN
April 13,1981. Aimed the apparatus at
the Moon and made a 20 minutes exposure.
A clearly different taste was observed com¬
pared with the control sample - not a good
taste. No noticeable effect on me.
Then focused the instrument on Saturn.
A clearly different taste was noticed. Muscle
testing showed no weakness on Saturn wa¬
ter, yet three observers agreed that there
were taste differences between Saturn, the
Moon, and the Control water.
MARS
June 17,1980, 930 pm. First made a
test on the Moon and Jupiter which were
conjunct, followed by a test on Mars. Com¬
pletely different tastes were observed. No
psychophysiological effects noticeable.
As a control I pointed the apparatus
randomly at the stars. After a 30 minutes
exposure, the water exhibited no change in
taste.
PLUTO
Jan 12,6:35 am. (Year not noted.) Ac¬
cording to the ephemeris the Moon was
conjunct Pluto. It was hazy and the Moon
was waning; only 1/4 strong. Left water for
20 minutes. The taste was smokey, not espe¬
cially a good taste. No noticeable effect,
except possibly a little mental fuzziness.
CONTROLS AND OTHER EXPERI¬
MENTS
May 6,1981. Magnets were placed at
the open end of the tube. The apparatus was
pointed at the sky. A slight taste was ob¬
served after 20 minutes. A control test with
no magnets also produced a taste, but less
strong. A second control with no magnets
again produced a rusty taste. Presumable
this was because the funnel was rusty and
needed replacing. But a rusty taste had not
been noticed before.
May 7,1981. Left the sample bottle on
the apparatus overnight with the South poles
of four cylindrical magnets pointing inwards.
The magnets held themselves in place on the
soft iron stove pipe. They were about 1 inch
diameter and 5 inches long - estimated field
strength several thousand gauss each. A
strong taste was noticeable.
Aimed the device at the foggy sky, ori¬
ented about 40° up and towards the South¬
east Left it for about three hours, during
which period, the sky cleared and then re¬
fogged. The water had a strong taste.
Leaving the instrument in position, I
stuffed the opening with a towel. Three
hours later the water tasted the same as a
control bottle which had been sitting on a
nearby bulkhead.
May 8, 1981. Tastes were noticeable
with everything I did today. Magnets at the
end of the tube or no magnets, with the tube
pointed at the sky, at the Sun, at flowers, at
the house. Sunspot activity was at a relative
peak on May 8th.
May 17,1981. I placed distilled water
such that light from the telescope would
shine in the water and placed a second
sample bottle as usual at the end of the
funnel. There was no noticeable taste to the
water exposed to the light from the tele¬
scope, but there was a taste in the water from
the funnel. This observation was verified by
an independent observer as well.
Well water (which has iron in it at my
home) produced a much stronger taste
(acrid and bitter) than distilled water. Again
there was no taste difference noticed in the
water exposed at the end of the telescope.
DISCUSSION
Some of the facts which have emerged
from this work are listed below:
1. There is some emanation which ap¬
pears to be originating from the Sun, Moon,
and at least some of the planets.
2. The emanations interact with water.
3. The emanations have some connec¬
tion with solar activity and/or geomagnetic
activity.
4. The water is affected. Sometimes it
tastes different, and/or sometimes it pro¬
duces psychophysiological effects when it is
drunk.
5. The effects are different from the
different planets.
Since our Sun appears to be a strong
source of the emanations, presumably all
stars produce similar emanations. Since we
are 65% water, drink water, and breathe
water vapor along with air, we are presuma¬
bly being continuously affected by the ema¬
nations from the Sun, Moon, planets, and all
the stars.
The observation that water exposed to
the Sun in the apparatus, made people
sleepy was puzzling at first, but seems to fit
with the common observation that after sun¬
bathing people become sleepy. Sleep has
always been a mystery. It is a very powerful
drive. Perhaps this work provides an impor¬
tant bit of new information.
Effects from the planets on water may
follow somewhat traditional astrological
notions. This does seem to offer a means for
validating such notions, but of course it will
take some time.
In another experiment I set two glasses
of water on two coils of wire pulsed with
direct current. Each glass of water was ex¬
posed to a different magnetic pole. A third
glass served as a control. Taste differences
were usually noticeable in the water. Tastes
were similar to those observed from some of
the planets, however it is difficult to verbalize
or categorize tastes.
Magnetic fields have been found to alter
chemical reactions. A Swedish company
manufactures a magnet treating apparatus
for reducing calcium deposits in boilers.
No chemical tests were made on water
samples from the instruments described in
this paper. It was found that this would be
prohibitively expensive.
Water is not a simple substance. Be¬
sides the known forms of liquid, solid, and
gas, water molecules can form complex
loose structures that are not well under¬
stood. In liquid form some of the molecules
ionize, some form hypermolecules, and
probably many other different complex pat¬
terns. Biologists speak of “living water” or
“structured water”. The dynamics of the
living cells may superimpose a structure on
water making it suitable for some purpose of
which we are unaware. This may be a con¬
stantly changing pattern and different within
different cells and tissues. Water in the air is
different from water in lakes and ponds and
rivers which is again different from water in
the oceans. Water is the most dynamic
compound on the planet.
Magnetic fields may indirectly affect
water thru the mechanism of altering the
hydrogen proton which is the nucleus of the
hydrogen atom. Under the influence of a
varying or oscillating magnetic field the hy¬
drogen proton swings to and fro. It gives off
a low frequency pulse of around 2700 Hz
(called the hydrogen precession frequency).
This conceivably could influence events
within our bodies or produce some changes
at the molecular level. (Payne, 1984)
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
imaging techniques make use of similar ef¬
fects. Perhaps protons of other atoms are
also affected by geomagnetic storms. Al¬
though the effects would be small, they could
be significant for a biological organism.
At times of heightened sunspot activity,
solar flares and events occur on the Sun
which increase the solar wind flow and pro¬
duce turbulence in Earth’s magnetic field.
This in turn may alter hydrogen protons
within water and other organic compounds
and produce subtle heretofore unrecog¬
nized effects. Many different researchers
have found associations between crimes,
riots, accidents, illnesses, psychotic episodes,
and wars and solar and planetary magnetic
activity. There is also a link between geo¬
magnetic activity and weather. Interactions
with the hydrogen proton in high altitude
clouds may be a factor in this as well.
SUGGESTIONS FOR FURTHER
RESEARCH
Many research topics come to mind and
a few are listed below:^ **
1. Is this a different form of energy? Or
just a different form of magnetism?
2. Is it unique to living organisms?
3. Can the water exposed to the emana¬
tions be stored?
4. How can the effects be amplified or
increased?
5. Can specific emanations be detected
from Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto? From
Mercury? From the stars or the galactic
center?
6. Many pulsars oscillate at frequencies
near those common to the human brain.
They also have enormous magnetic fields.
Can they produce effects on hydrogen pro¬
tons?
CONCLUSION
This preliminary work is merely explora¬
tory. There are many variables and un¬
knowns which need to be untangled one by
one in some systematic manner if possible.
It’s premature to make any definite conclu¬
sions at the present time. This could take
years of research and is beyond the powers of
one person. Therefore it is hoped that oth¬
ers will carry these simple experiments for¬
ward in their own creative ways. Since the
apparatus is so simple, anyone can make
original discoveries. It should be an exciting
scientific adventure!

MAGNETIC ENERGY TAUGHT ME NEW BASIC CONCEPTS II
Larry Spring, 225 Redwood Ave.
MEASURING SIZE OF ENERGY BY
SPEED AND TIME
In my first article published in the
Journal of Borderland Research September-
October, 1990,1 mentioned several personal
observations revealed to me by the radiated
magnetic energy itself. First and foremost it is
important to recognize the speed of light at
approximately 300,000 kilometers (186,000
miles) per second in a vacuum. This same
speed holds for all radiated magnetic energy
including radio, television, infrared heat,
visible light, x-rays and gamma rays to name a
few. Speed in air is approximately the same as
in a vacuum. This speed I verified by
measuring in 1954.
The next important factor is “time”,
which is usually described in seconds. It is the
same time as measured by your watch.
At 186,000 miles per second radiated
magnetic energy can travel 3 inches in 1/
4,000,000,000 second (one 4 billionth of a
second). Three inches is the peak to peak
wavelength of the C band satellite TV down
link transmission. In 1/60,000,000 (one 60
millionth) of a second radiated magnetic
energy can travel 16 feet (192 inches). This is
the frequency and wavelength of television
Channel 3. Mid range of visible white light
has a frequency of approximately
600,000,000,000,000 (600 trillion) times a
second which at the speed of light determines
its wavelength of approximately 1/50,000
inch (one fifty thousandth of an inch). In
metric that would be about 0.55 microns.
When I say wavelength I use it as a unit of
measure only. When I say foot I use that also
as a unit of measure. I am not talking about
your foot Electromagnetic energy in 1985
revealed itself to me as spherical units of
radiated magnetic energy in an infinite range
of sizes from tiny gamma rays to AM radio,
and beyond in both directions, and every¬
where in between. A white light photon mid
range is about 1/100,000 inch (one 100 thou¬
sandth of an inch) in diameter.
SCREENING FOR SEE
By closely measuring the spherical units
of magnetic energy, by running them through
Ft. Bragg, CA 95437
various sized wire mesh, like screening gravel,
I, Larry Spring, determined them to be the
1/2 wavelength in diameter. This made sense
as they were being formed by an alternating
electrical current running back and forth in a
1/2 wavelength resonant electrical current
conducting rod. The magnetic field forming
around the conductor as per Hans Christian
Oersted’s right hand rule was cast off by the
reverse polarity magnetic field forming inside
of it as the electrical current and field re¬
versed direction in the conducting rod.
The electrical field is tied to the electron
and effectively repels other electrons without
the electrons actually bumping (like charged
particles repel). The electrons travel in a
metal conducting wire and the electrical cur¬
rent field travels in and around the conduc¬
tor, while the magnetic field is driven away
mainly at right angles to the electrical field’s
path traveling in and around the conductor.
This high speed radiated magnetic field trav¬
eling at 186,000 miles per second can dupli¬
cate an alternating electrical current in any
conductor it crosses, providing this conduc¬
tor is lying in a position to cut the magnetic
lines of force of the spherical units of energy
that are radiated from the transmitting con¬
ductor in alternating magnetic polarity as
formed around an alternating electrical cur¬
rent carrying rod or wire.
MEASURING ENERGY UNIT SIZE
BY SURFACE ROUGHNESS
This wide variety of sizes gives rise to a
wide variety of actions. 4GHz (4 billion vibra¬
tions per second) satellite transmitted units
of magnetic energy will bounce accurately
from sandpaper as the energy unit is the same
size as a ping pong ball that bounces accu¬
rately from a sandpaper coated ping pong
paddle. Light photons of 1/100,000 inch in di¬
ameter slamming onto sandpaper at 186,000
miles per second will scatter in all directions
as dictated by the surfaces of the tiny grains of
sand. It takes a mirror finish to uniformly
bounce photons of light. Channel 3 TV 8 foot
diameter units of magnetic energy as defined
by Larry Spring in 1985 will bounce accu¬
rately from fairly rough ground that would
scatter ping pong ball sized units of satellite
magnetic energy. *
Bouncing accurately or scattering from a
surface of various roughness is an effect of
size but passing through mass is also a prod¬
uct of size both large and small. An 8 foot
diameter unit of energy would not be much
affected in its travel by a cannon ball held up
in its path, while the same cannon ball would
make a ping pong ball sized unit of satellite
signal bounce in a direction dictated by the
slope of the point of contact Tiny x-rays can
pass right through the space in an atom.
Gamma units of magnetic energy are so very
tiny that they can pass right through an atom
unless one hits a nucleus which make a sizable
reflecting surface for gamma rays from which
to rebound. So transparent or opaque is a
result of structure of mass in relation to radi¬
ated magnetic energy size.
SEEING WITH PHOTONS
Other than my own writing, I have never
seen in print or heard anyone state the size of
a photon of light other than they say it is very
tiny. I, Larry Spring, applying my television
spherical units of energy observations to the
known frequencies and wavelengths of visible
light have in 1985 determined that the mid
range of visible light photons are about
1/100,000 inch in diameter. Metal window
screen with 1/16 inch openings is transparent
to light while it is opaque to C band satellite
signal. In practice you can see through a
screen while satellite energy 1-1/2 inches in
diameter will not pass through. Neither will 8
foot diameter spherical magnetic units of
energy of TV channel 3 transmission.
6,000 photons of visible light can pass
side by side through a screen hole. 6,000
layers of 6,000 each m akin g 36,000,000 pass¬
ing in one instant would fill the screen hole
without overlapping and I see no reason why
they cannot overlap. 36 million photons in
one instant traveling at the speed of light
means that a string of photons 36 million
thick extending 7 times around the world
would pass through that one screen hole in
one second.
The hole or pupil of our eye is about the
Page 12, November-December 1990 The Journal of Borderland Research
size of a screen hole. It is no wonder that we
can almost instantaneously receive light of
varying density bouncing off the scene in
front of us conveying the high lights and low
lights (shadows) to reveal the irregularities of
all we see. It is a variation of amplitude that
gives us the lights and darks, but better yet we
see variations in frequencies at the same time
which gives us color. I say we see both in
amplitude (AM) and frequency (FM) modu¬
lation.
BOUNCE OR RERADIATE
There is a vast difference between
simple bounce of spherical units of magnetic
energy as recognized by Larry Spring and ab¬
sorption and reradiation. This can readily be
viewed with light and your eyes as receivers,
but to understand what really takes place it is
better to use television frequencies, a sensi¬
tive signal strength meter, and simple absorp¬
tion and reradiating rods in conjunction with
a test dipole antenna. Convenient energy
sizes to work with range from 4 billion cycles
a second, with a spherical 1/2 wavelength
diameter unit of magnetic energy of 1-1/2
inches, which is 150,000 times the diameter of
a photon of light, to 60 million cycles a second
of TV channel 3 with a spherical unit diame¬
ter of9,600,000 times the diameter of a pho¬
ton of light
All magnetic units of radiated energy will
bounce intact from a smooth nontransparent
surface, or nonporous surface. Although
polished metal is best it need not be metal. In
fact anything you can see has bounced pho¬
tons of visible light Had all the light been
absorbed and reradiated, it would reradiate
in infrared invisible frequencies of heat and
the reradiating surface would look black.
With the test antenna and TV frequen¬
cies, magnetic units of energy can be redi¬
rected from the surface of a metal plate to the
antenna simply by tilting the metal plate and
using the law of reflection, which states that
the angle of incidence equals the angle of re¬
flection. That is why a parabolic reflecting
satellite dish works so well
With absorption and reradiation a reso¬
nant 1/2 wavelength conducting rod is used in
a position that cuts the magnetic lines of force
of the high speed transmitted spherical mag¬
netic units of television signal composing the
energy front. These reradiating resonant
rods are used as reflecting rods in most televi¬
sion antenna arrays. A reverse polarity mag¬
netic field is formed around the resonant
length conducting rod. This field’s polarity
opposes the action of the passing field that
caused it That is the essence of Lenz’s Law,
and can be readily recognized when testing
reradiation from rods. This reverse polarity
magnetic field radiates outward, but instead
of being directed as a unit from a smooth
surface, it radiates in a global pattern from
the reradiating rod. It’s strongest direction is
perpendicular to the rod. This radiated en¬
ergy can be traced all the way around the rod.
This rebroadcasting satisfies Christian
Huygen’s observation that every point on a
wave front is a new point of transmission, but
does not take into consideration the more
obvious and common simple bounce of
spherical units of energy composing the en¬
ergy front as recognized by Larry Spring in
1985.
People will say this is all very interesting,
but how can I use it Actually you are using
the principle of radiation from light through
heat to TV and radio all the time. They all
work the same and travel the same speed,
only the unit size is controlled by the fre¬
quency. The density of energy is governed by
the power output of the transmitter and the
spreading of energy from its source. It gets
thinner by the square of the distance.
Think of the retina or back surface of
your eye as a field of one hundred and thirty
five million TV antennas each receiving the
light photons bouncing from one tiny area
you are viewing. They are converged through
your eye lens and reproduce the scene in
front of you in miniature on the retina of your
eye. Now remember 36 millions photons can
and do pass through the pupil of your eye in
one instant and a line of photons as long as 7
times around the world can pass in one sec¬
ond. Light to be seen has to go through your
eye pupil either directly from its source like a
light or the sun, or bounce off the scene in
front of you. The photons hitting the back of
your head do not enter your eye. There are so
many photons bouncing around during day¬
light hours all going so fast that you have no
trouble seeing. Highlights or bright spots
show concentrated light coming in an almost
direct bounce path frojjxthe sun while shad¬
ows show light arriving from some less direct
route. Very dark shadow shows you are
receiving almost no light from that point
Black means the visible light energy has been
absorbed and, if the object feels hot, you
know the energy is reradiating in the lower
frequency of infrared. Green grass or tree
leaves tell you the red has been absorbed and
only the blue and yellow is reflecting or
bouncing. We see this as green. Sometime
after dark take a green leaf and hold it near
the red tail light of your car and it will look
black, as the red is all absorbed. Plants use ul¬
traviolet too, but it is naturally invisible to the
human eye.
When you see blue smoke from a chim¬
ney you know the smoke particles are a group
of molecules just large enough to make a
bounce surface for blue light (about 0.2 mi¬
crons). If the smoke is white the group of
molecules are large enough to make a
bounce surface for white light If the smoke
is black, light is being absorbed and reradi¬
ated as infrared, which is a lower frequency
than white light, that can be detected as heat
The sky is blue, the clouds are white, the
evening sun in a smoky sky is orange or red all
due to varying sized bounce surfaces for
photons of visible light
Yes, we use radiated energy every day,
all day long for light and heat and in its stored
form of water power and plant carbons we
use it for light, heat and motive power all
night too. We have used it for years. It’s
interesting to learn more about the shape in
which it arrives from the sun.

PHANTOM ARMIES OUT OF TIME
Vincent H. Gaddis
Early on the morning of August 19,
1942, Canadian commandoes crossed the
English Channel from Britain and landed at
several points at and around the French fish¬
ing village of Dieppe. The hoped-for ele¬
ment of surprise ended when the landing
craft of the attackers were spotted by a port
signal station and by armed German vessels
escorting a tanker. Navigational errors up¬
set the scheduled timetable; landings that
should have been made under cover of dark¬
ness took place in broad daylight
The enemy had been alerted and the
Allied troops were mown down by a deadly
cross-fire from mortars, rifles and machine
guns. The beaches were carpeted with
corpses. With the exception of the landing at
Varengeville, five miles west of Dieppe,
where the Canadians stormed the German
batteries, destroyed guns and ammunition
dumps, and took prisoners, the raid was a
disaster. Of a total force of over 4,000 about
2,500 were killed, wounded or captured.
Nine years later two English ladies, Mrs.
Dorothy Norton, aged 32, and her sister-in-
law Miss Agnes Lawton, accompanied by
Mrs. Norton’s two young children and a
nurse, arrived in Dieppe for a holiday. They
found rooms on the second floor of a pleas¬
ant house facing the sea at Puys, a hamlet
one mile east of Dieppe. During the war the
house had been occupied by German offi¬
cers, and the beach in front of it had been the
scene of the most violent fighting. For sev¬
eral days they enjoyed their rest and recrea¬
tion amid the quiet rural surroundings.
Before dawn on the morning of August
4, 1951, both women were awakened by
deafening sounds of battle. To their ears
came the rattle of machine guns, the sharp
cracks of small-arms fire punctuating the
explosions of shells, shouts, cries and words
of co mman d. They hurried out onto their
balcony overlooking the beach and sea, but
at no time did they see anything. Everyone
else in the house continued to sleep. The
cacophony of combat was theirs alone.
It began at 4:20 a.m. At 4:50 there was
a lull in the bedlam, but it began again louder
than before at 5:05. At 5:40 there was an¬
other lull, ending at 5:50 when the predomi¬
nating sounds were the passage of planes
overhead and the roar of dive bombers. The
din of conflict faded into the distance at 6:20,
ending at around 6:50.
Page 14, November-December 1990
Realizing they were having a supernor¬
mal experience, the ladies had the presence
of mind to take notes. Later it was discov¬
ered that their observations coincided with
the sequence of events that occurred at Puys
during the raid - the time of landing, the two
periods of comparative quiet when there
were pauses in the naval bombardments by
off-shore destroyers, and the arrival of forty-
eight Royal Air Force Hurricanes.
The ladies wrote separate reports dur¬
ing the next two days and send them to the
British Society for Psychical Research. The
ladies could have had no foreknowledge of
the ebb and flow of the battle since it was still
under censorship. The official account of
the Dieppe Raid was not published until five
months after their experience. All possible
explanations other than the supernormal
were ruled out. The analogy between the
sounds heard by the two women and those of
the original raid plus the coincidence of the
times eliminates mundane theories.
There was another time and another
conflict - the American Civil War. The
Battle of Cedar Creek in Virginia was a bitter
one, especially for the South. On the morn¬
ing of October 19, 1864, Gen. Philip H.
Sheridan’s Army of the Shenandoah was
camped on hills beside the creek. Sheridan
himself was at Winchester on his way back
from a conference in Washington. He had
no suspicion that a Confederate force led by
Gen. Jubal A Early had been marching day
and night, existing on short rations, to deal
the Union army a stunning blow.
Early’s surprise attack came out of a
chilly autumn fog. After one round of mus¬
ketry, the camp was filled with shouting reb¬
els. The Union soldiers not taken prisoners
fled with their own artillery, now in Confed¬
erate hands, firing into them from behind.
The starved southerners, who had not eaten
well for months, ignored their officers and
fell upon the abundant food supplies in the
storage tents.
But their victory was short-lived. Sheri¬
dan woke to the ominous rumble of cannon.
He quickly dressed, leaped to the saddle, and
raced toward the battle. Thirty minutes later
he met his leaderless, disorganized troops
moving north in defeat. He successfully
rallied his men, turned them around and
straightened his lines. As the Union forces
advanced, the charging cavalry and infantry
\
The Journal of Borderland Research
broke through the prolonged Confederate
line in a dozen places. The rebels were
broken up, scattered, flung back up the val¬
ley, and the Shenandoah campaigns ended in
a triumph won in the shadow of defeat.
Here where thg Union exulted in victory
and the Confederacy suffered the anguish of
disaster, here where men knew the agonies
of pain and the shock of sudden death, the
effects of violence and emotions linger.
From time to time sensitive souls can hear
the clash of conflict, the call of bugles, the
shouts of men, the whine of shot, and the
distant booming of spectral cannon. In a
nearby church that was used as a hospital
one can occasionally hear the cries and
moans of the wounded. Sometimes, faintly,
comes the music of a martial band playing,
perhaps, a requiem for the shades of com¬
rades long dead.
And along Indiana’s old Wabash trail,
from Vincennes to Lafayette, there are tra¬
ditions of a phantom army. It is said that on
certain moonlit autumn nights the expedi¬
tion of Gen. William Henry Harrison
marches again to battle at Tippecanoe. At
first, dimly, comes the blare of a bugle, the
beat of drums, the tramp of marching feet
The sounds grow in volume as the ghostly
militia approaches, and one hears the ca¬
dence timin g the steps and the shouted di¬
rections. Then, as the files pass on through
the quiet night, they face away into the dark¬
ness.
These invisible armies from out of the
past are not the earthbound spirits of sol¬
diers doomed to eternally re-enact certain
events frozen in history. No, they are audio
soundtracks caught in the web of timeless¬
ness. They and their visual elements can be
considered sounds and scenes impressed in
the “psychic ethers” at points in space, parts
of the great earth memory, the “Akashic
Records” of Oriental philosophies.
While it may be assumed that all mun¬
dane activities are thus recorded, those
emotionally inspired seem far more vivid.
Thus a sensitive observer can clairvoyantly
witness the re-enactment of a violent occur¬
rence, say, a suicide or a homicide. If a single
death can have such an influence, how much
greater must be the effects of war, of battles
with their mass fears and hates and multiple
suffering and death?
Again, one may ask why certain conflicts
or scenes are more susceptible to sensitive
persons that others? If this is true at Cedar
Creek, why not at Gettysburg? If this was
true at Dieppe, why not at Asnelles? We
may surmise that there are places where, in
effect, the veil is more thin. Clairvoyant
observers have sometimes noticed that the
vision flows and ebbs, clarifies and fades.
But it is possible that the observer him¬
self is a factor, his degree of clairvoyance for
example. We can only guess why the two
Englishwomen heard the raid at Dieppe,
although a number of persons have experi¬
enced the phenomena at Cedar Creek. Why
is Great Britain subject to possibly more
hauntings than other countries? Is the bor¬
derline between realms more tenuous there;
or are the Anglo-Saxon values of ancestry,
tradition and culture factors? At any rate
Britain possesses an abundance of phantom
armies along with its numerous individual
ghosts.
Near Glastonbury the spectral footsteps
of marching knights and the clanking of their
armor can still be heard at night. In Wiltshire
at Woodmanton, where Romans and Brit¬
ons once fought, war horses have been seen
galloping along the valley. An old house that
formerly stood on the site of the Battle of St.
Albans during the 15th century Wars of the
Roses resounded to the clash of sword on
steel. The building was called, “Battlefield.”
The Battle of Edge Hill in 1642 was the
first major conflict in the English Civil War.
Although more than 4,000 men lost their
lives, neither side won a victory. The carnage
was so shocking that both sides refused to
attack again the following day. Religious fer¬
vor was involved: King Charles I was at¬
tempting to force Anglican ceremonials on
the Scotch and Puritan clergy. And so great
were the psychic energies poured forth in
this struggle that quite likely no other similar
vision in history has been so intense in detail
and so vast in scope.
The battle was fought during the after¬
noon of October 23. Just two months later,
on the night of December 24-25 between
midnight and 1 p.m., came the first re-enact¬
ment. Mysterious noises were heard. Bewil¬
dered countrymen, shepherds and some
travelers heard the roll of drums approach¬
ing from a distance, then closer and closer,
shouts and groans. Suddenly over the War¬
wickshire plain and on the slopes of the
downs, in the air above the heads of the
frightened witnesses, appeared the battle
scene. They saw horses and men maneuver¬
ing, the swing of swords and the thrust of
lances. They heard the firing of muskets and
the discharges of cannons. The scene contin¬
ued for about three hours, then faded away.
At approximately the same time the fol¬
lowing (Christmas) night the vision ap¬
peared again. This time there were a large
number of observers who had gathered on
the plain from the surrounding villages. As
the armies fought as ferociously as before,
the terrified spectators, believing the battle
was being re-enacted by demons, fell to their
knees, praying to God for protection.
There was no return of the mammoth
apparition during the next five nights, but at
midnight of December 31-January 1,1643,
the battle was seen again, this time lasting for
four hours with even greater violence and
noise. And again the next night (New
Year’s) at the same time. Another week
passed with no visitation, then the scene re¬
turned on the nights of January 7 and 8.
A report of the visions reached the King
at Oxford. In what may be the beginning of
psychical research, the King sent three of his
top officers and three private gentlemen to
conduct an on-the-spot investigation. They
were witnesses the nights of January 14 and
15, and so vivid and detailed was the spec¬
tacle that the officers recognized among the
contestants men they knew had been killed,
including Sir Edmund Verney, the King’s
standard bearer.
There is no record that the vision ap¬
peared on January 21 or 22 or thereafter, but
it was definitely visible eight times to a large
number of witnesses. Obviously we are not
dealing here with spirits of the dead since the
human images included the surviving sol¬
diers. We appear to be dealing with a record¬
ing, comparable to a video TV tape with
soundtrack, that when stimulated recreates
sight and sound to the consciousness of an
observer. Nor would such phenomena as
this be a display of the rare gift of clairvoy¬
ance since all persons present could see and
hear the battle.
The visions appeared on two succeeding
nights a week apart, not at the same time as
the original battle, but exactly twelve hours
before and twelve hours after that time,
always beginning about midnight. This
brings up the question of cycles, which have
been observed in other forms of psychic
phenomena. The spectral ship of Northum¬
berland Strait, Canada, appears annually
either before or directly after the autumnal
equinox, while the Lady Luvibund , another
phantom vessel, has re-enacted its doom on
England’s Goodwin Sands every fifty years
on February 13 since 1748.
We do not know why it happens, but it
seems there are rhythms or cycles in the
actions of natural phenomena from sun-
The Journal of Borderland Research
spots to economic trends, and from the me¬
tabolism of crabs the human emotions. Carl
Payne Tobey, the mathematician-astrologer
who discovered the prime dendrite (the for¬
mula for prime numbers that mathemati¬
cians had been seeking since the days of
Euclid), has written: “It is a strange fact that
scientists searching for cycles in nature find
cycles in almost anything, even in random
numbers. Which implies that they are not
random. In other words, there may be no
such thing as random Even that which
appears to be random anti chaotic may be in
accord with some unknown design.”
Thus psychic phenomena, too, may be
“in accord with some unknown design,”
some rise and fall, ebb and flow of the cos¬
mos beyond man’s understanding. The
vaster reality that exists beyond our sensory
perceptions is doubtless subject to cosmic
influences, causes and effects, and natural
laws that we may never know.
Less than two years after Edge Hill, the
Battle of Marston Moor was apparently
foretold the night before when a troop of
horsemen were observed galloping through
the sky over Helvellyn. This conflict, too,
produced its own restless apparitions. Ac¬
cording to a writer in Myth, Man and Magic ,
the encyclopedia of the supernatural, as
recently as 1932 “two motorists were
startled to see cloaked men of Civil War
vintage near the battlefield.”
Many appearances of ghostly armies
have no apparent relationship to specific
battles, but are like rare glimpses into the
Akashic Records; or could they be sightings
into realms or dimensions parallel to or
interpenetrating our own world? If the
clothing worn by the phantom army is of the
same period as the spectators’ we can con¬
sider the possibility of a natural mirage. But
when the same visions recur cyclically, this
explanation must be ruled out.
For example there are the phantom
soldiers observed in 1735,1737 and 1745 on
the steep slopes of Souter Fell in northern
England, all three appearances being on the
same holiday afternoon (Midsummer Eve).
On each occasion a vast army came from the
north, passed over the mountain side with its
precipices, and disappeared in a niche near
the summit. The north and west sides of
Souter Fell are sheer 900 feet heights. No
marching man could have kept his footing let
alone the horsemen and carriages in the
procession. On one occasion the soldiers
marched five abreast for more than two
hours, the vision ending with darkness. At
the final appearance there were 26 wit¬
nesses, according to Harriet Martineau, the
November-December 1990, Page 15
noted English writer of the early 19th cen¬
tury, in her book The English Lakes . An¬
other account appears in Christina Hole’s
Haunted England ,
The observers said the troops occupied
a space of half a mile. They were not vapor¬
ous or indistinct, but so real that several
times on the following days a search of the
slopes was made for hoof and footprints.
There were some who believed that the ap¬
paritions were prophetic of the Jacobite
rebellion of 1745, but there is little evidence
to support this notion.
Catherine Crowe, in her classic The
Night Side of Nature (a book first published
in 1848which reveals how little progress has
been made in the past century in explaining
psychic phenomena), tells of several ghost
army visions. Perhaps the most astonishing
account was reported by Archibald Bell, a
farmer of Inverary, Scotland, as having been
witnessed by his father and grandfather
about the year 1750. One morning the elder
Bell and his son went to the village of Glen-
shiray to transact some business. On their
return home about noon they suddenly ob¬
served a vast concourse of men marching
towards them. The columns stretched so far
into the distance that the rearguard could
not be seen.
As it advanced and they walked slowly
toward it, the two men noticed that the
marchers were carrying a large number of
different banners and standards, and were
walking six or seven abreast With them, as
was the custom at the time, marched women
and children on each side of the road, carry¬
ing pots, cans and other cooking utensils.
The sun glinted on the muskets and bayo¬
nets carried by the soldiers who were clad in
scarlet The eider Bell, who had served in the
Rebellion of 1745, assumed that the army
had come from Ireland, landed at Cantyre,
and was headed south to invade England.
When the vanguard of the army was
some 150 yards from them, they noticed a
body of about 40 men led by an officer on
foot slightly ahead of the other troops.
Behind this group rode an officer of Dra¬
goons - or so they concluded from the trap¬
pings on the horse. He wore a gold laced hat
and a blue Hussar cloak. Both father and
son said they had observed him so intently
that they would recognize him instantly if
they ever met
At this time able-bodied men could be
forced into military service and young Bell
had no wish to become a soldier. He and his
father climbed over an embankment beside
the road and hid behind some thorn bushes
a short distance from the dike. Then they
looked toward the road.
The road, which a moment before had
been thronged with humanity, was deserted!
They rubbed their eyes. It was true! There
were no men, women, horses or vehicles on
the dirt road. And the elder Bell suddenly
realized that there had been no clouds of
dust when he had seen the armed force. A
few minutes after the pair had clambered
back over the dike, a neighbor appeared
riding a horse from the direction of town. In
reply to their inquiry, the neighbor said he
hadn’t seen a living thing since leaving Glen-
shiray. There were no footprints in the dust.
Archibald Bell said his grandfather be¬
lieved that the vision was a glimpse into the
future, but his father insisted that the uni¬
forms of the soldiers belonged to a past
period. He added that both were abstemi¬
ous men who had drunk nothing stronger
than milk that day.
Catherine Crowe tells also of a large
visionary army observed in Havarah Park,
near Ripley, Surrey, in 1812 by a number of
spectators. These soldiers wore white uni¬
forms, but seemed to be instructed by a man
in a scarlet one. After performing some
marching exercises, they marched in order
about a hundred yards from the witnesses
and up a hill. Then there appeared another,
more numerous body of men in dark uni¬
forms, and they followed the other up the hill
without any obvious hostility. Both parties
formed the shape of an “L”, then disap¬
peared down the other side. In another case
it was the barking of dogs and the nervous¬
ness of horses that drew the attention of
witnesses to a ghostly army.
Over a period of several weeks in 1937
marching sounds were heard near the site of
Thunderfield Castle, Surrey. The historical
connection may be that the armies of King
Harold stopped at the castle on their way to
fight William the Conqueror in 1066. There
is an old legend of a ghostly army in the
neighborhood, but there is a theory that
excavations at the castle may have caused
the 1937 revival of the retrocognitive phe¬
nomenon. Harry Ludlam, in the book The
Restless Ghosts of Ladye Place , says that a
couple living near the castle site, Mr. and
Mrs. F. Godden, have heard the sounds of
tramping feet and a voice giving orders on a
number of occasions. The sounds seem to
come out of the air. One night Mr. Godden
swerved his car to avoid striking the figure of
a man wearing a red cloak, and the figure
vanished. If related to the marching, this has
been the only visible manifestation.
Other nearby residents heard the eerie
marching during that period. Mr. F. E.
Jones, while walking one afternoon to see
the Goddens, heard coming toward him the
faint, steady tramping of many feet ‘Then
as the sound became louder,” he said, “the
atmosphere seemed to become icy cold. The
sound became louder until I was in the
middle of an invisible company of men.
Round me there seemed to be a clink as of
metal. Gradually the sound died away. It
was not imagination: it was something I
cannot explain.”
East of Asheville, North Carolina, is a
beautiful, strange country, a haunting region
of mountains, valleys, dark caves, and myste¬
rious phenomena. Near Morganton is
Brown Mountain with its enigmatic lights
that appear and vanish and are as elusive as
will-o’-the-wisps. There is Shaking Bald
Mountain where thunderous rumblings
emanate from its rocky heart And there is
Chimney Rock Pass where the highway cuts
through a spur of the Blue Ridge. Here it
was that a phantom army fought a cavalry
battle in the year 1811.
There were five known eye-witnesses,
and their sworn accounts attracted a great
deal of attention at the time. They testified
that for several evenings while sunlight still
lingered on the mountain summits, they had
observed two bodies of cavalry advance
toward each other across the sky. They saw
them meet in furious conflict, striking with
flashing swords as they maneuvered their
mounts, and they heard the sounds of battle
followed by groans and shouts of victory as
the scene faded into the shadows of dusk.
So much public interest in the report
was expressed, that Generals Miller and
Walton secured affidavits and a public meet¬
ing with the witnesses was held in the nearby
town of Rutherfordton. There was some
speculation that it was a vision of an encoun¬
ter between British and Continental caval¬
ries during the War of Independence.
Five years earlier, in July, 1806, in this
same area, there had been another vision in
the sky, but the figures were not those of sol¬
diers. On the contrary, the spectral beings
resembled an angelic host The apparition
came into view late in the afternoon of a
warm, sunny day near Chimney Mountain.
A number of witnesses watched a crowd of
literally hundreds of beings, resembling hu¬
mans, as they passed through the atmos¬
phere in a long procession. They ranged in
size from seemingly tall men to infants, all
clad in brilliant white raiment Rising up into
view from the side of the mountain with most
of the mountain top visible above them, the
figures moved to the north and gathered
around Chimney Rock
Page 16, November-December 1990 The Journal of Borderland Research
When all but a few had reached the
rock, several of the glittering white forms
rose above the others who then began cir¬
cling the rock at about the rock’s height. A
few minutes later the figures that had risen
moved to a point about 20 yards from the
rock’s summit They were followed by the
rest in a procession and at that point one by
one they vanished. According to an affidavit
signed by the observers, the disappearance
left “a solemn and pleasing impression on
the mind, accompanied with a diminution of
bodily strength.” The vision lasted for about
an hour.
During the Civil War, at midaftemoon
on October 1,1863, six witnesses a few miles
west of Lewisburg, West Virginia, beheld a
bewildering sight. They were Moses Dwyer,
a farmer, four ladies in his household and a
servant girl. It was a hot, cloudless and wind¬
less day. Suddenly Dwyer, who was seated
on his porch, noticed just above the tree tops
on the adjacent hills to the south, an im¬
mense number of what appeared to be small
white clouds. They were about the size and
shape of house doors, tinged on their edges
with light green. They passed rapidly
through the air in a consistent formation.
After they had passed out of sight, the
scene changed from the air above to the
earth beneath. In the valley below the farm
there appeared thousands of apparent
human beings, traveling in the same direc¬
tion as the clouds, moving rapidly, and
marching in order 30 or 40 in depth. They
began ascending the almost insurmountable
hills on the opposite side of the valley. Their
arms, legs and heads could be distinctly seen
in motion. Some were large; others were
quite small.
Although they seemed to observe mili¬
tary discipline, they did not appear to be
soldiers. They all wore white shirts and trou¬
sers, and no weapons of any kind were vis¬
ible. They passed up from the valley, over
the hills, disappearing in a direction due
north from the farm.
In Frank Moore’s book The Civil War in
Song and Story, published in 1889, an almost
identical vision was seen 14 days later by ten
Confederate pickets and by a number of
citizens at Runger’s Mill, also in Greenbriar
County, West Virginia.
Many persons in Virginia and Delaware
saw similar ghostly figures as well as soldiers
in the heavens during the autumn of 1881.
In late September in Virginia the Warren-
town Solid South announced that a “number
of reliable and responsible people saw an ap¬
parition in the heavens at about 10 p.m. of
white robed figures which were supposed by
those who saw them to be angels.” On
October 7 the Richmond Dispatch pub¬
lished an account from their Frederickburg
correspondent It stated that “many persons
in this community claim to have witnessed a
most alarming sight in the heavens just be¬
fore daybreak. The heavens are said to have
been lighted and vast numbers of soldiers
appeared, uniformed, armed and drilling.”
In Delaware at Wilmington the citizens
were “greatly excited” when witnesses said
they observed “platoons of angels slowly
marching and countermarching to and fro in
the clouds, their white robes and helmets
glistening in the light.”
This same account states that William
West, a farmer living near Georgetown, saw
“bands of soldiers of great size, equipped in
dazzling uniforms, their muskets shimmer¬
ing in the pale, weird light that seemed to be
everywhere, marching with military preci¬
sion up and down and presenting arms. The
vision lasted long enough to be seen by a
number of West’s neighbors. Many people
living near Laurel, many miles away, saw the
same extraordinary phenomena; in Talbot
County the illusion was seen by numbers.”
A story by Arthur Machen is said to have
inspired the famed tale of the “Angels of
Mons” in World War I. At the moment
when German forces were about to over¬
whelm the British Army during its retreat
from Mons in 1914, spectral warriors -
English bowmen from the field of Agincourt
- intervened and kept the Germans at bay
until the main army succeeded in making
good its escape.
Despite the Machen story, a number of
soldiers gave testimony that they had actu¬
ally seen a phantom army at that time, or
something very like it. Their accounts were
published at the time in British newspapers,
and in books by Harold Begbie, Ralph
Shirley and in Hereward Carrington’s Psy¬
chical Phenomena and the War . It remains
a matter of controversy.
However, a similar report by Capt. C.
W. Haywood was published in the English
National Message magazine in 1940. The
captain said he was an intelligence officer in
World War I on the First Army Front. An
exceptionally heavy bombardment routed
Portuguese troops from their trenches near
Bethune, and the British had to retreat to
avoid being flanked and destroyed. Bethune
was being subjected to intense German fire,
when suddenly the shelling lifted to burst on
open ground beyond the town bare of
trenches, houses and even trees. The British
watched in amazement
Captain Haywood said he made his way
i
The Journal of Borderland Research
to the edge of town when the firing mysteri¬
ously ceased and he discovered that the
Germans were rapidly retreating in disorder.
He ordered his men to pursue the Germans
and bring back prisoners, officers if possible,
to find out what had happened. These or¬
ders were carried out.
The officers said that as a wind blew
away the smoke from the burning houses,
they saw a huge body of men clad in white
uniforms and mounted on white horses ap¬
proaching the town frqpx the other side. As
this weird cavalry advanced, their figures
clearly outlined in the shining sun, the shells
exploded in the midst of their ranks, but not
a man nor a horse fell. Like a relentless
incoming tide through the atmosphere, the
white cavalry flowed forward, led by an im¬
posing commander astride a charger and
holding high a Crusader sword. Terror-
stricken, the German troops broke into
panic, fled and left the battlefield to the
Allies.
Ghostly armies have marched world¬
wide. In Hawaii as far back as native history
goes, there have been from time to time
mass materializations of the dead, usually at
night. They have consisted of traveling
crowds of men, women and children, laugh¬
ing, singing, scenting the air with perfume of
the mountain maile . Usually they were only
heard, but sometimes they were visible to the
living.
The late Max Freedom Long, Huna
authority, tells of an investigator, Dr. John
Tanner, who once heard the sounds of invis¬
ible feet shuffling along in a procession at
night in the Waikiki district near the site of a
dead king’s summer home. He hurried to
the old Royal Palace three miles distant. In
a short time the procession arrived, but it
turned away short of the palace and stopped
upon reaching the royal tombs in the burial
ground of the neighboring missionary
(Kawaiahao) Church.
But it is the marching armies of Hawai¬
ian warriors and their chiefs, carrying torches
and beating drums, that frighten the native.
Anyone caught in their line of march is left
dead, so the living, when hearing or seeing
the approach of these bands, flee or hide at a
safe distance until the marchers have passed.
The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
was on the morning of Dec. 7,1941. On the
night before - December 6 - two warrior
armies marched. The story is told in Para¬
dise of the Pacific magazine, published in
Honolulu (Dec., 1943, issue). Were these
manifestations auguries of the assault about
to begin?
Near the village of Maluhonua, not far
November-December 1990, Page 17
from Pearl Harbor, the residents were awak¬
ened by the sounds of marching men shortly
before midnight. Some went to the doors
and looked outside, but they could not see,
only hear the grim tramp. It was coming
from the heiau (ruins of an ancient temple
platform) at the head of the valley, then it
passed through the village and outward to
the sea.
A scream of mortal agony had been
heard during the march in the valley above
the settlement. The next morning the lifeless
body of one of the young men of the village
was found on the trail. There was no mark of
violence upon him. Perhaps, said the elder
natives, he had been taught in a modem
school that the magic of the ancient Kahunas
was only superstition, and he had paid with
his life for his skepticism. And on this same
night at about the same time there had been
asimilar march in the Lumahai Valley on the
island of Kauai. The body of an elderly
Japanese man was found in the path of the
marchers.
After the Pearl Harbor attack, the Japa¬
nese invaded the Philippines. Manila and
Cavite were taken Jan. 2,1942. With the fall
of Bataan on April 8 the Japanese occupied
all of the mainland. U.S. and Filipino troops
made their last stand on the island-fortress
of Corregidor guarding Manila Bay. Here in
an elaborate tunnel system officers and men,
nurses and convalescents, lived a molelike
existence.
During April and the first days of May,
the besieged garrison was the target of thou¬
sands of shells and bombs. The growing
number of wounded taxed the facilities of
the underground hospital; their suffering
was intensified by shortages of anesthetics
and other pain-relieving drugs. Supply ships
were sunk by shore batteries, and dwindling
food supplies reduced rations to a bare sub¬
sistence level. Flesh and blood could not
long endure this merciless day and night
pounding, nor could the island’s defenses
escape destruction. One by one the pillboxes
and gun emplacements were knocked out.
The end came on May 6. After five months*
resistance Corregidor was surrendered.
Today ghosts walk on the tadpole¬
shaped island with its three devastated
square miles. The tunnel walls are crum¬
bling and parts of it have returned to the
jungle. Its inhabitants were interviewed by
Lester Bell, military writer of the San Diego
Union. They consist of a family of govern¬
ment caretakers, a small Filipino Marine de¬
tachment, and a group of firewood cutters.
They insist they have heard sounds from
out of the past - the marching of troops, the
dragging of chains, the moans of men in pain.
They swear they have observed phantom
soldiers, unsubstantial but distinct. The
Marines say they have nearly rubbed shoul¬
ders with the scouts of decades ago while on
guard duty. According to the caretakers, a
nurse in a Red Cross uniform and a red¬
headed woman wearing a gown have repeat¬
edly appeared and vanished.
Frightened firewood cutters reported
that one eveninfg«at dusk they had seen
wounded and bleeding men running around
near a tunnel entrance. Three nights later
Florentine R. Das, supervisor for tourism
for Luzon, made an investigation under
bright moonlight. He and his wife seemed to
hear men in pain. “The sounds seemed to be
moving away toward the Malinta Tunnel,”
he said.
Memories of Corregidor are both bitter
with suffering and defeat, and proud with
courage and fortitude. As a former Philip¬
pine Defense Secretary has said, “It was here
in this once-great fortress that the defenders
fought almost beyond human endurance.
From Bataan and here began the cruel and
vicious death marches with agony at its ulti¬
mate. Indeed, why shouldn’t it be haunted.”
SympatheticVibratory Physics
Training & Certification - Level I - Basic Theory
What is the common thread that binds spirit to matter? What paradigm can successfully explain radionics, crystallography, heal¬
ing, mind over matter, psychic phenomena, transmutation, metaphysics, quantum physics, religion, electromagnetism, gravity,
levitation, sound force, energy, and material beingness? The one common denominator in all these things is vibration. Because
everything in the universe vibrates we need only learn the fundamentals of vibration and we gain an insight into the hidden inner
nature of all things. The science and technology of Sympathetic Vibratory Physics is based on empirical studies of scientists, well
known and prominent in their respective fields. SVP is a wholistic synthesis of these and other fields of research demonstrating
that they are all linked and can be viewed as a comprehensive and whole paradigm.
A short training course has been prepared to help you learn in the comfort of your own home what vibration is and how it func¬
tions throughout your everyday existence. If you work with or are interested in any of the subjects listed above you need this
course. The so-called New Age movement has little empirical foundation under many of its tenants. This course was created to
supply empirical foundation to these new yet old ideas and concepts. Unless a foundation is placed under your work it is not de¬
fensible and of little real substance. This training and certification course will give you that foundation.
Rudolph Steiner said the science of the future will be based on sympathetic vibrations. Now is the time to learn all about it and
we can build and bring this new future to mankind . Included in the study materials are a bibliography, a compendium of over
3,000 terms and phrases for more in depth research, charts, drawings, subscription to The Journal of Sympathetic Vibratory Phys¬
ics, membership in The International Keely Society, and a certificate of achievement when completed. This course was prepared
and is monitored by Dale Pond, leading researcher, lecturer, writer and teacher in SVP. Materials primarily based on the works
of Cayce, Keely, Tesla, and other prominent avant garde scientists and discoverers.

OPERATION CLINCHER
In the May-June 1990Bulletin Board we listed a public notice
of Trevor Constable’s official filin g of OPERATION
CLINCHER, a project designed to reduce smog in the Los
Angeles basin and surrounding regions using etheric tech¬
nology. The stated aim of CLINCHER was “ RECORD
SEASONAL REDUCTION OF SMOG, 1990, SOUTH¬
ERN CALIFORNIA” While we do not have the final
results in at BSRF yet the information that we do have is that
the operation was highly successful The Oceanside Blade-
Citizen of 18 AUG 1990 reports, “LA. AIR CLEANEST IN
15 YEARS” which is said to be due to “unusually stormy
s umm er weather and tougher anti-pollution measures.” The
Air Quality Management District was fully informed of
CLINCHER during its progress, as well as all previous
operations, and its claim that “tougher anti-pollution meas¬
ures” kept the smog down doesn’t hold up under scrutiny.
The record shows that in 1987,1989 and 1990, when Trevor’s
equipment has been in operation, smog levels have been at
their lowest. In 1988, when no operation was in progress in
Southern California (See PROJECTTANGO -Rainmaking
in the Singapore Dry Season, Sept-Oct 1989 JBR for activities
during that period) the LA. region had the second worse
smog season of the decade. Etheric technology can be used
today to aid in cleaning up our environmental mess. Tougher
regulations make life harder for the average person, but
haven’t yet done much to clean the air. As Trevor has pointed
out in a communication, 12 OCT 90, one of the grosser errors
of our time is in “seeking to correct the consequences of
Mechanism with vast mechanistic projects, attended by irra¬
tional expectations.” Armies of lawyers writing regulations
can never produce the profound results that simple geomet¬
ric forms, under knowledgeable guidance, can produce. Con¬
gratulations on a successful operation, Trevor.
THE COSMIC PULSE OF LIFE
** The book “The Cosmic Pulse of Life” by Trevor James
Constable is one of the most ground breaking works ever!!!
It does for science and ufology what Yogananda’s “Autobiog¬
raphy of a Yogi” and Muktananda’s “Play Of Consciousness”
did for yoga, meditation and true SELF-REALIZATION.
Constable’s work confirms Meade Layne’s theory about UFOS,
being mental constructs and using Reich’s orgone for propul¬
sion. It also confirms what the late Swami Muktananda told
of his inner journey to the higher planes, called “Lokas”,
traveling in the “Blue Star”. Muktananda also discusses
UFOS being created and powered by the blue light of shakti,
the supreme universal energy of creation. This is discussed in
the book, “In the Company of a Siddha”, a rare book of
interviews with this modem saint by many great people
including an interview from Jacques Vallee on UFOS. Or¬
gone, the blue light, Kundalini Shakti is one and the same!
Muktananda’s books may be purchased only from S.Y.DA
Foundation in South Fallsberg, N.Y. Thhnks very much for
all the great work of B.S.R.F. and mayits efforts Flower in the
world!

* * Thank you for the 1990 update of THE COSMIC PULSE
OF LIFE. I still work on the 1975 version, still try to go after
that 18A filter for my work. Since then we have video
cameras, more direct bandpass filters and a whole host of
more gadgets to work with. And almost no one in the UFO
community has taken up any of this work, they prefer to be
lead down the garden path than rather strike out on their own
like Trevor. That Cooper-Green-Lear bunch is finally get¬
ting to me as well, what a disservice to the independent
researcher. One thing I have learned out of this is to be led
by your own guidance system that your creator gave you on
dayone. Trevor is one of those people enhancing this aspect
Whatever Trevor is doing at present is proprietary and most
likely cannot be leaked to the general public, therefore
barring us all from more hands-on experiments. To be
honest, I may have to do the same thing, in case I notice a
commercial application for my talents. For this reason we all
seem to suffer from the same malady which results in partial
information to the very same people we like to share with.
SEE YOU IN THE LIGHT,

Bodo also submitted this review of “THE COSMIC PULSE
OF LIFE” by Trevor James Constable: This book is one of
the classics, it belongs in everybody’s library of UFO materi¬
als. We have been treated to UFO’s from deep space, we
know about UFO’s manufactured on this planet, and now
Trevor Constable treats us to the very archetype of the UFO
found in the ‘ethers’. This perception has remained unchal¬
lenged in almost 15 years and is annotated in this 1990version
with additional material from overseas by sources not known
by Trevor 15 years ago, a prime example of synchronicity. The
book also goes very deep into Trevor’s ‘spiritual sponsors’,
their short biographies and tremendous accomplishments.
An outstanding feature is the revelation of data on how
to replicate the photographic findings through application of
certain bandpass filters that only permit light to go through
in the extreme ends of the visible light spectrum. Unfortu-
The Journal of Borderland Research November-December 1990, Page 19
nately not much is offered in terms of the ‘cloudbuster*,which
is an important device attracting those ‘bioforms’ or UFOS in
the first place.
To summarize, this updated version is a welcome addi¬
tion to the serious UFO researcher, has more than enough
hints and encouragement to get yourself involved to supply
the missing pieces, even after 15 years of the original version
this book is still consulted for new angles to explore.
** Have finished THE COSMIC PULSE OF LIFE. A won¬
derful education!!! But as I am getting up in years I cannot
wait a possible lOyears before I run across the information I
want to know. Please, please!!! Where can I get more
information about the “genital rights of babies, infants and
adolescents?” What do the 7 words mean? Right now they
are just seven words. Articles, essays, books, you name it and
IwillgetiL If this is explained in the book I missed it
Evelyn Bishart
Wheaton, IL.
The response coming in here at B.S.R.F. to the new edition
of COSMIC PULSE has been tremendous. We have even
had requests for a hardbound edition, because people feel
that the book is so good that they want it in their library for
life. It is an excellent introduction to the borderland fields of
research, as well as being an advanced guide to continue on
with for years. It differs quite a bit from views held in the the
present UFO field, which consist mainly of “former” govern¬
ment employees and intelligence contacts who have decided
to tell everyone the “truth”, a “truth” which conveniently ig¬
nores the researches of pioneers such as Trevor and Morris
Jessup, and in fact caters to the lowest common denominator
of fear and suggestion. At B.S.R.F. we never became fed up
with that school of thought because we never entertained it,
other than to see how far this intelligence operation would
enter the UFO field. It has unfortunately overtaken it,
confusing and diverting many fine minds, and that makes
COSMIC PULSE more important than ever in getting to the
reality of the matter.
The information that Evelyn seeks on the genital rights
of infants derives from the work of Wilhelm Reich wherein
he felt that the social problems of our modem world are
caused by sexual inhi bitions impressed on humans beginning
in the crib. This gives rise to “character armor” which inhi bits
the flow of natural energy in the human organism. A good
source for understanding how Reich derived his concepts in
this area is: FURY ON EARTH by Myron Sharaf; and of
course the writings of Wilhelm Reich himself. Write the
Wilhelm Reich Museum, PO Box 687, Rangley ME 04970.
Also, Jim DeMeo, of Natural Energy Works, PO Box 864, El
Cerrito, CA94530, has done some investigation into this area
and is also a source for Reich’s original writings.

is how to disperse them. I find our blessed Buddha statues
useful and also a wind c him e made of xylophone keys. In both

found shifting beds a couple of feet makes a big difference.

PSIONIC GENERATORS
* * In the past I was in communication with T.G.Hieronymus.
My question is, is he still alive? I have the greatest respect for
him and did follow up on some of his suggestions which gave
me some extremely interesting results*
In your May-Aug 1990 issue, you mentioned a book by
John Boyle, “The Psionic Pattern Generator Book” (ISBN)
0-13-736975-1 by Prentice Hall, 1975. Being in Mexico, I
don’t have easy access to the various to various publisher’s
addresses. Do you have this book in stock or can you give me
the address and price as to where I can obtain one. I believe
that this book could be used to give graphic demonstrations
of what I am trying to develop in some of my research.

Dr. T. Galen Hieronymus passed on in February of 1988,
leaving a tremendous legacy of radionic research behind. His
group, Advanced Sciences Research & Development contin¬
ues on, led by his dedicated wife Sarah. Contact: Advanced
Sciences R&D, PO Box 109, Lakemont GA30552, (401) 782-
2092. Don’t know the current availability of “The Psionic
Pattern Generator Book”, but perhaps we can find out and
let everyone know. It is basically a book of patterns such as
cones, pyramids and other geometric forms, which are hung
from threads in simple or complex variations. By focusing the
mind on these forms one can get them to spin. I was able to
get one going in one direction and another in the opposing
direction at the same time. I would love to run more on this
so will keep all posted if info comes in.
Yes, I’ve heard of Sai Baba. He appears to be capable of
yogic siddhis such as dumping pounds of ashes out of a small
vase, which we have seen on video. He may very well be a true
holy man, and if such we need more such people on earth. But
we are in a stage of consciousness where gurus are no longer
needed for the development of our ego consciousness in
preparation for further stages of planetary development.
Having a teacher is one thing, we all need them. Does Sai
Baba teach how to attain his state, and have any of his
disciples done so? Following someone who performs mir¬
acles leaves one a follower and not a leader and we need more
leaders today. Orientation is always of prime importance.
SPIRITUAL RADIOS
* * Fm renewing our subscription for a another year for what
Page 20, November-December 1990 The Journal of Borderland Research
I really feel is quite an exceptional journal. One that, I for one
shall certainly continue with, hopefully for a long time still to
come. Though it would be nice, if you were occasionally to
bring out some really bizarre stuff, touching on Atlantean
technology, or some weird communications device, other
contentious weird contraptions. Nonetheless it’s still
pretty-much quite an exceptional journal So do try and,
keep on churning them on out to us, if it’s not over-loading
you down too much. One wonders if you’ve ever contem¬
plated reissuing the HEFFERLIN MANUSCRIPTS which
were being retyped up by the late Mrs. Crabb. I think she
might have at that time been working on ‘part 3’, considering
that I already have ‘parts 1 and 2’. So what do you think the
likelihood is of you reissuing the entire lot of these ‘HEF-
FERLIN MANUSCRIPTS’. Lastly, might one ask if you
have any additional information on the ‘ZWAMM RAY
APPARATUS’. Which was issued by the Electronics Com¬
munications Group operating out of London. I did manage
to get some information out of Riley Crabb, like how the
ZWAMM RAY APPARATUS operated, and how one mi ght
put one together. It might be worth writing the information
up in some future edition of the publication entitled PROJ¬
ECT HERMES (TWO INVENTORS RETURN). How¬
ever if at some stage should I be fortunate enough to locate
other information describing the ZWAMM RAY APPA¬
RATUS, I shall be only too happy to pass it on. For I do
personally think it belongs in with the HERMES PROJECT.
Being a comm uni cations device of some description. Putting
us in touch with the great beyond. So hope you have success
in searching this out for us. Hope you can get all this other
stuff wrapped up for us as well
R. A. Falk
Auckland, New Zealand
Thanks for your comments on the Journal. Perhaps the
article in this issue on Jack Derby will help fulfill your need
for some “weird contraptions”. Basically I’ve taken BSRF
away from the weird contraption mode and have tried to
orient towards a spiritual scientific approach to the matter of
penetrating into the mysteries of manifestation. As my good
friend Vince Gaddis, who spent many years investigating
psychics and mediums, has related to me on several occa¬
sions, people who die and whose spirits communicate from
the other side seem as confused as we do on general matters.
Perhaps they may have the added experience of death, but as
researchers into the Near Death Experience know, there are
many variations of that experience. To understand the spiri¬
tual realms one should really look into the resultant of the
spiritual life of the universe, the physical world. If people
would read Rudolf Steiner’s scientific courses, or read some
of the works of his students like Lilly and Eugen Kolisko or
Rudolf Hauschka they will find far more profound and lofty
insights based on an aware perception of what is here now
than have ever come from a seance. Of course, if someone
showed up at our door today with a device that would allow
me to talk to spirits, I’d turn it on and ask a few questions. I’d
later turn it off and get on with my work. If it worked Td run
a schematic in the Journal so others could try. The Hefferlin
Manuscripts, I & n were issued for many years by BSRF. I
dropped them from the catalog because nobody bought
them. I’m not familiar with the ZWAMM RAY APPARA¬
TUS but if anyone has a working model I’d like to turn it on
for a test, and we could add the info to our PROJECT
HERMES file for researchers into this area.
AIDS VARMINTS
** Please find enclosed a photo copy of an article clipped
from the Roanoke Times as reprinted fromthe S.F. Chron¬
icle . Probably you have seen it already but for many of the
Journal readers who may have missed it, I feel that it is a must
for inclusion in the next issue. Maybe you can help us find
more information on Iben Browning and his theories. And
too getting the word out that much more may save an extra
life or two. [The article is in reference to Browning’s predic¬
tion of an earthquake on the New Madrid Fault on or around
December 3, 1990, which has received national attention
since we received this letter. TJB]
Next subject: Fm sure you have read Bearden’s Aids-Bio¬
logical Warfare . Scary stuff. Have you read Dr. Douglas’
Aids-The End of Civilization ? Scarier stuff. Why? Because
Douglas is a top notch medical doctor who knows his busi¬
ness and he confirms everything Bearden has claimed. Using
simple arithmetic and published figures from several differ¬
ent sources, one can reasonable project that by 1995,. 1/2 of
the U.S. population will be infected by the Aids virus. By
2005,1/2 of us will be dead, dead, dead. There may not be
agreement on exactly what Aids is but as an informed layman
I know what Aids is similar to. Aids is medically and sympto¬
matically very much like rabies. Not just your ordinary
garden variety mad-dog in the street rabies but worse. A
mutant highly contagious slow death virus that feeds exclu¬
sively on people. It is loose right now taking our best workers,
our best minds and our only children.
I like to breathe. The big medical guns, who (no pun
intended) by the way, made and released the killer virus in the
first place, are in the second place putting on a rather dismal
show with their alleged efforts to clean up their mess. By
default it has fallen to the amateur and unconventional
scientists - Borderlanders if you will, to mount some kind of
effective resistance to the horrible plague that is upon us.
Tom if you and the BSRF can somehow get anti-viral
electro-magnetic hardware into the hands of enough con¬
cerned researchers it could possibly lay the ground work of a
new system of health care that might not only be a last ditch
defense from Aids but a first line assault on the whole
problem of human poverty and disease. If the threat of
extinction cannot rouse us to action, we are perhaps not fit to
survive.
The essence of what I am trying to say in this letter is this:
Is there any point to anything at all, if there is no point to
stopping Aids before it stops us? Can we sit on our hands and
wait for them to do something? It seems that “them” have
The Journal of Borderland Research November-Deccmber 1990, Pag a 21
already done something, namely to put every man, woman
and child in line to be the recipient of a very slow and nasty
death. It is time for action, any action, as a group or as an
individual. Go ahead and panic now, it will save time later on.
Wayne Rice
Rocky Mount, VA
No need to panic, Wayne, somebody is pulling your leg.
There are no massive die-offs from AIDS happening, in fact
the number of real AIDS cases is going down. The numbers
from the Center for Disease Control are going up due to
manipulation of statistics and reclassification of anyone test¬
ing positive for supposed AIDS virus antibodies as full blown
AIDS on the statistics sheets. One of the most outstanding
features of partially informed AIDS researchers has been
their ability to masturbate with a calculator and count the
milli ons of dead before they die. Overlooked completely in
Bearden’s and Wm. Campbell Douglas’ partially researched
scare stories is the basic feet that AIDS is not caused by a
virus, that the virus (which could well be manufactured) is a
marker in only certain cases and that many people have AIDS
symptoms worldwide without any signs of the many AIDS
viruses now claimed to exist. If the Commies created a virus
to wipe out the U.S., as Bearden likes to scare people into
believing, it would wipe out their population at the same
time, leaving no-one for the elite to push around. If it is a
virus it confounds all known laws of virology. We have
published on such in this Journal, and that is the reason we
asked Michael Urban to speak on such at our Congress last
June. Michael couldn’t make it and suggested we invite Joan
McKenna of the Institute for Thermobaric Studies in Berkeley
CA We were happy to have hosted such a sincere, aware and
informed researcher and her talk on the connection between
syphilis and AIDS is some of the best info available to the
researcher. No scare stories, or displays of calculator frenzy,
just the simple facts of the matter — that AIDS is most likely
a form of tertiary syphilis and can be treated and disposed of!
We understand that there have been hundreds of cases of
complete remission in Europe from ozone therapies. It’s
illegal to cure someone in the U.S., especially when the
disease has been mandated as incurable. What I get a kick out
of most with the AIDS scare stories is that .hey emanate from
people who think that the “establishment ’ is a source of dis¬
information on all levels (possibly!). However, they believe
what they want out of the info about the virus and rej ect what
doesn’t fit their picture - even if it is in the “alternative”
p *ss. If Douglass is a real doctor then he should be putting
ou. information that will help people and make them feel
better, not twisted information that scares them and makes
them sick - it is in violation of his oath to heal!
UNIVERSAL MIND
** I do not possess scientific mind but scientists do not
possess Universal Mind either. What you profess to sell is
very true: they are the Fruits of the Tree of Life. Not every
Human Being is allowed to reach to EAT the Fruits of the
Tree of Life: It is forbidden, however in this present Cycle of
the Creation which is called “In the Beginning God said let
there be Light and there was LIGHT’ it is an exception.
Nowadays, men are selling Adam’s Apple whereas there is no
Adam and Eve and no Apple at all In this Universal Age
Human Beings are in a very delicate and precarious situation:
It is called the End of Time. Every Cycle has a Beginning and
has an END. According to the prominent Astronomers this
Universe is expanding and the Birth of a New Universe is on
the Horizon. We are on the threshold of New discoveries
especially in the Spiritual Realm, and this Reality will bring
mankin d to its knees.

BACK ISSUES
* * I have been a subscriber to The Journal of Borderland Re¬
search for about a year, and wanted to tell you how much I
enjoy it My min d feels like a rubber band...every stretching.
If possible, I would liketo purchase some back issues, andwas
wondering whether or not you could send me some informa¬
tion concerning prices, availability, etc.
David Wemple

One of the neglected projects here at B.S.R.F. has been to
supply back issues. We have back issues in stock to May-June
1989, with no contents listing currently available. They are $5
apiece PP in U.S., plus an extra $2 air postage outside US. It
has always been our intention to make all the back issues
available, back to 1945. The time and money needed to
support such a project have yet to materialize. With proper
funding we could put the entire history of B.S.R.F. on com¬
puter for rapid access to any info covered.
HUBBLE TELESCOPE USE
** The launch of the new Hubble Space Telescope is sup¬
posed to lead to new discoveries in astronomy that would
revolutionize our conception of the universe in cosmology,
star-galaxy formation, looking for distant objects and search
for planets around other stars. In reality, telescope time will
be allocated to researchers who support existing theories at
the expense of those who support Steiner, Wolf, Hoyle,
Reich, Larson, Hamilton, Adams-Whicher, eta.. The status
quo researchers are afraid that the discovery of objects be¬
yond 20 billion light-years and planets around other stars will
increase the chance of discovering extraterrestrial life. The
extraterrestrial life discovery would mean humanity is not at
the center of the universe. BSRF could counter it by using
dowsing and radionic methods to look for planets around
stars other than our sun and objects beyond 20 billion light-
years.
B. Gree nman
Chicago, EL
The Hubble telescope will be used to confirm what the
Page 22, November-December 1990 he Journal of Borderland Research
scientists already conceive, with a few fudge factors to ac¬
count for new discoveries. It can focus on light waves trav¬
elling through space after they bounce off of a secondary
surface like the reflecting mirror that needs fixing. The
Hubble, while being a fantastic tool which I myself would like
to use, is a tunnel vision device par excellence , for it overlooks
the qualities of the potent energies, both in and outside of the
light bands, streaming in from the periphery of space. Lilly
Kolisko and Rudolf Hauschka were two researchers who
have already discovered far more in their scientific work than
the Hubble could ever hope to see. They discovered the force
and form streaming in from space and enlivening the surface
of this planet and were able to objectify it through plant
growth and sensitive crystallization experiments. Modem
science will continue on a backbumer in the reality of univer¬
sal happenings until it begins to understand the living ener¬
gies of the universe. The secret of life will hardly be found
looking at ma gnified pictures of stars, for it is present where
we are now, though somewhat buried in the noise of our
industrialized civilization.
As far as our present human lives are concerned, earth is
the center of the universe. People forget that science has con¬
vinced them that what they actually see and experience isn’t
true! The horizon, the sun moving through the sky, etc, are
all just illusions according to the heliocentric view of the
universe. Before the Copemican revolution people lived in
a spiritual universe, connected to the stars and planets which
revolved around the earth, as they saw and experienced.
After the discovery of the telescope this type of consciousness
was completely uprooted and the breaking of these spiritual
contacts gave rise to the scientific consciousness of today.
This has given us the tremendous technology still growing
around us, and its down side, the pollution and degraded
natural state of the earth. What is truly needed is another
“Copemican Revolution”, but not one that goes backwards
to geocentrism, but one that goes forward, incorporating
both geocentrism and heliocentrism in our consciousness’
move outward into the universal streams towards concepts
whose first glimmerings have shown up in Steiner’s scientific
indications. And radionics would be an excellent way to
check for life, even using photos from the Hubble as wit¬
nesses. The tools of modem science should not be rejected,
they should be used with proper perspective.
COMPUTERIZED RADIONICS
** Do you have any information as to the manufacture of
some of the latest ELF devices that are computer driven such
as the SE-S, whereby the whole spectrum of frequency pro¬
grams can be used for plant, animal and human application?
I notice that you don’t merchandise any equipment — just
Information—but Pd like to hear from you for any guidance.
By the way, I did not see “Energy Refractors” in your Re¬
source Guide re: newsletters, etc. They are at 53166 Star
Route 681, Reedsville, OH 45772.
Bert DeLotto
Fresno, CA
The SE-5 is a powerful computerized instrument, and is not
generally considered an ELF (Extreme Low Frequency)
device. Some people call it radionics, but that stretches the
concept of radionics because radionics instruments are struc¬
tures in space, setting a specific rate on a dial creates a specific
vibration in the instrument. It could be psychotronic, that is,
the instrument merely acts as a focus for psychic energies, and
is superfluous if the person can overcome the need for a
physical anchor. The computer generated rates flashing on
the screen of these devices are generated in a synthetic sub¬
realm. We have heard good things and bad things about these
computer devices, which is to be expected of any tool We ran
several articles in 1988 by Jay Christopher, one of which puts
computer use in radionics into true perspective as a sub¬
realm outside the energies of life.
My experience with the SE-5 is as follows: At a confer¬
ence in 1987there was a booth selling these devices. I was told
that this was the new wave of radionics, that it could auto¬
matically find any rate in the universe - for such are the
supposed wonders of computers. I asked if it could tell me
exactly the metallic content of a coin and was told certainly,
it could. I was then asked if I wanted a demonstration, to
which I readily agreed. I was asked for my driver’s license (for
my picture/witness) which I supplied, wondering what that
had to do with the min eral content of coins. My license was
placed into the machine and a batch of numbers flashed on
the screen after a few buttons were pushed. My license was
then pulled out and I was told that my chakras were now
balanced. Needless to say I lost interest in the instrument
because nobody at the booth could demonstrate what they
claimed, but would readily take my $2,000 based on their
sincere belief in these claims. This group was going to send
us one for evaluation and testing, which we never received.
This is just my experience and these computerized radionic
units should be considered valuable research tools on the
empirical basis that people are getting action at a distance
results from them. I have spoken with people who use them
quite successfully, and in some cases quite dramatically.
Some good friends have used one quite successfully in treat¬
ing themselves for various ailments over the last couple of
years -- they could also tell the effects of doctor administered
drugs on different organs, and such. If it works for you use it.
Is it radionic, a shadow thereof, or merely psycho-tronic?
Using Lilly Kolisko’s methods one could rapidly find whether
using a regular radionic instrument to potentize water at a
specific rate would have the same effect as using a computer¬
ized instrument. I’d be happy to supply whatever data neces¬
sary to anyone willing to do such experiments.
I don’t know the current status of Energy Refractors as
Jerry Fridenstine passed on late this summer, purportedly of
a heart attack caused by a blood clot travelling from a broken
leg. We were sorry to hear about Jerry’s passing as he was an
energetic person who woke people up to new ideas wherever
he travelled. As Chuck Walters noted in ACRES, USA, Jerry
was responsible for getting ACRES to publish on radionics,
thereby bringing this idea into the minds of many farmers. He

always had a kind word to say about Borderland, and we’ll
miss him at future conventions. We wish his wife and family
all the best, and should we get any further news on this we’ll
pass it along.
THAT MWO AGAIN
** I recently purchased your book on Multiple Wave Oscil¬
lators, “MWO Handbook”, edited by Tom Brown. In the
book are many references to the “Golden Ratio”. I was
unable to determine what the mathematical basis for the
Golden Ratio is, or what the ratio itself is. I have other
material which describe the Golden Section, and it is a ratio
of.618to 1. The closest I came to avalue for the Golden Ratio
is from the MWO antenna data on page 188 of your book —
the ratio appears to be 1.27:1. Could you please clarify the
mathematics of the Golden Ratio antenna?
Burrell C. Smith

** I recently purchased The Lakhovsky Multiple Wave Oscil¬
lator Handbook. I am in the process of building an oscillator.
I have all the parts except 6Kv .OOSmf capacitors. No elec¬
tronic store in Alaska has them, or knows how to get them. I
would appreciate it ifyouwouldsend theaddressof either the
manufac turer or an electronic store that carries 6Kv ,005mf
capacitors. I have one more question. Do you know of a
meter or electronic apparatus that measures the amount of
energy level the human body produces? It seems that like
fingerprints, all human bodies are different in the amount of
energy they use or produce. Ifone can coordinate the energy
level of the oscillator to that of the body far less damage
would be done and far greater healing potential be made.
Stephen M. Nair

For the first question, the Golden Ratio antenna uses the
golden ratio as a base, but it was engineered to conform to
other considerations of antenna propagation. It is what is
called a log periodic antenna. Eric Dollard worked out the
equations from which we had a technical company inscribe
the artwork. Haven’t seen hide nor hair of Eric for several
years so do not have him around to ask right now. If any of our
members who have worked with these, (and I know there’s a
few out there), can supply further mathematical info please
let us know. Also, if anyone has a major source for the
capacitors and other related electronic components please
send it in and we’ll list it for everyone.

lucky in the US. In Europe we have a 230V system that is far
more harmful than yours.
A final co mm ent on the MWO which seems as popular as
ever. When I lived in Paris I made the acquaintance of
Lakhovsky’s son and saw two of the MWO’s built by his father
in operation. The demonstration was very impressive but it
didn’t last too long because the old units interfered seriously
with radio and television reception in the area. They were
very big units, about as large as an early TV set I don’t know
where they are now since he later loaned them to friends
living in the country.
Ron Crossley

Th anks for the data on the eye formula. Very curious quote
from Gurdjieff as it concurs with what Steiner indicated, that
electricity makes living things sclerotic. If perhaps you
wouldn’t mind searching your memory a bit more I have a
question about Lakhovsky’s device: You say it interfered
with radio and television reception. Was this from internal
spark gaps, or did any unit you see arc between antenna coils.
The pictures in The Secret of Life indicate that the then
necessary spark gaps were interior to the unit, and the pic¬
tures of the effluvia coming off the antenna are obviously
pictures of corona discharge and not arcing as in the units
built in the US today. Bob Beck, in his 1963article on MWO’s
claims he built a unit from an original, but his antenna hook¬
up is quite different from Lakhovsky’s pictures. Many years
of searching have failed to produce an original unit. The
modern units are derived from the most obvious derivation of
Lakhovsky’s first MWO patent, which is written to both
protect his design and cover infini te variations thereof. A
detailed account of an original MWO in action would be of
great value in this research.
SOUTH OF THE BORDERLAND
** Two news items for you: (a) Recently, in mid-July 1990
and until now, an anti-cancerous treatment called HA.N.S.I.
(Homeopatico Activador Natural del Sistema Inmunologico
= Inmunologic System’s Homeopathic Natural Activator)
has been released and approved for general use. This system
employs, much like Hoxsey’s, cacti and mine rals in combina¬
tion and in highly-diluted doses. Apparently, it is more
effective than Hoxsey’s for it makes die diseased tissue go
back to its former healthy condition and does not dry it for
further elimination with pincers ora local surgical operation.
The flesh returns to normal! So far, this treatment has been
Page 24, November-December 1990 The Journal of Borderland Research
found useful in all kinds of cancers but it has not been tested
in cases as severe as those indicated at the book “You don’t
have to die!”. I will keep you posted on further develop¬
ments.
Why was it not suppressed by the government? I do not
know; perhaps because it has been analyzed by biochemists
and found not to contain any allopathic compound, thus
hilling into the category of “homeopathic prescription” which,
in Argentina, is NOT under government control as long as it
is prescribed and applied by certified MDs. The HANSI
treatment has been discovered by one Argentine fitologist
called Juan Hirschmann and is applied medically by two MDs
called Crescenti, of family name, who are cousins in the first
degree. There are about 100 patients (or close relatives to
them) attending their small clinic every day for treatment and
their turns are taken up to November 1990, for theirs is just
a small clinic and c anno t attend more people. If any other
MDs take their treatment for general-prescription and thus
it spreads, I will tell you in future letters.
(b) I have read Mark Clemens’ “The Waves That Heal”
and discovered a little piece of information not included in
the current edition to “The Lakhovsky M.W.O. Handbook”
published by BSRF. In ’Waves’ I noted a short sentence in¬
dicating that one set of rings transmits energy through space
which falls upon the patient’s body and (it must be ascer¬
tained through experiment whether this is as I tell here or
otherwise) later absorbed by the receiving resonator which
resonates it for re-broadcasting into the patient’s body. Thus
the true Lakhovsky MWO, and UNLIKE the Beck-recon¬
structed model, would be a more-complex device involving
features so-far unthought of. It must be ascertained what
KIND of “receiving resonator” Lakhovsky employed, if it
had or not special constituents not described at any of his
patents included in the ‘MWO Handbook* and what other
features could be complementary to both.
Another feature to be considered, and which I discovered
in the photo of page 30 to Clemens’ book is that there are two
protruding spheres connected to the outermost ring of the
Lakhovsky set-up. In the copy of the BSRF publication I
have, these two photographs are reduced and with not the
same kind of resolution of the work by Clemens. Each
protruding sphere is connected to a cable and—following the
path of least resistance—the electrostatic current flows both
along the metallic path of the outermost ring and the excesses
accumulated from attracting ether from the environment are
projected towards the patient (in the case of the transmitter)
and collected for resonating (in the instance of the receiving
resonator). Also notice that there are two “bracing wires” to
both keep the rings in place and at the same time to f ulfill the
90° division determined for Earth by the metric theorems
which are the foundation of the Energy Grid! This adds
another feature of complexity to the making or duplication of
the MWO, which carries the Lakhovsky invention, again,
farther from the Beck-built model
Please mention my paper “Some Free-Energy Devices” for
the analysis I made there of the MWO is — at best - very
incomplete, not including the feature of non-uniformity the true
MWO does possess.
Jorge Resines

Please do keep us posted on the HANSI treatment. Glad to
hear that it slipped through a government loophole and is
actually helping people. We hope for such things in the US,
but the rule of thumb is that if it makes you feel better or heals
you then it is illegal Wouldn’t do to have happy, healthy
people in times of engineered emergency.
Th anks also for your further insights into the MWO. I
feel that a continuing dialogue will eventually produce more
evidence as to what type of equipment Lakhovsky used in his
successful researches into cell regeneration and how to best
reproduce it. The resonator antenna setup on Lakhovsky’s
original is more complex than the Beck MWO, as, like the
primary antenna, it also has two feeder wires. The two
spheres you mention, from which brush discharges can be
seen, have always struck me as the nuts that held the heavy
antenna onto its stand. Some mechanical contrivance was
necessary and the mini-spheres fit the bill with the possibility
that they may have been further configured to produce a
specific capacitance, as our evidence indicates that Lakhovsky’s
antennae were veiypreciselybuilt, probably log periodic. We
have heard that Lakhovsky was a radiethesiest and would
dowse the sites where he set his equipment up. He was
certainly into the subtle energies, and the French school was
very precise in its radiesthetic work, being the source mate¬
rial for much of Christopher Hills Supersensonics work. We
have an unconfirmed report that the original tube antennae
were filled with a rare gas such as argon. This would seem to
be the case as in Lakhovsky’s second MWO patent he re¬
duced the antennae and puts them into vacuum or low
pressure gas bulbs (as the first, this patent is written to be very
specifically vague). This was meant to be an improvement
over the original units, and probably was. What it tells us is
that the “Beck” units appear to be far from what Lakhovsky
was doing and where he was going, though because of more
than 25 years of people building and using Beck models it is
hard find information on the original. The “bracing wires”
are supposedly silk. Their angle was probably determined
solely by mechanical function, (see cover)
We have actually come under attack for our attempts to
clarify the MWO story! In a brochure put out by MWO
salesman Mike Brown, Box 25, Pleasant Hope, MO 65725,
we come in for the following treatment: “Then there are the
characters who, with no formal training whatsoever, deni¬
grate tings [sic] they know less than nothing about. One
outfit calling itself Borderland Research sent out a bulletin
claiming that no-one today is manufacturing a Lakhovsky
Multiple Wave Oscillator. These characters arrived at their
conclusion by comparing photos of a 1935 unit to ones being
made today. The units don’t have the same external appear¬
ance. Quite often people with no formal training in electron¬
ics or electricity don’t understand that an electronic device
The Journal of Borderland Research November-Dt er 1990, Page 25
and how it operates are determined by the circuitry contained
wi thin the unit, not by the boxit comes in.” My comments are
that there are perhaps tings we don’t know but we do know
that what is inside counts as much as the outside on the
MWO. I have put five years of serious investigation into the
MWOI would have to say that what we have published is the
result of serious consideration by a number of intelligent,
some highly trained, people interacting and exchanging ideas.
We have published the evidence to support our contention,
and have in fact stated that if we can be shown to be wrong
then we would like to know, that we have nc - al c mclu-
sions, just some of the facts. A crude attempt to belittle our
research by ignoring the main facts does not change the facts
and the facts are that the units pictured in Lakhovsky’s book
The Secret of Life are quite a bit different than the units being
built today, indicated specifically by the antenna hookups,
which basic logic would indicate the need for a different
interior setup. A thorough analysis of the basic differences
between the two types of units can be found in The Lakhovsky
Multiple Wave Oscillator Handbook, edited by myself, Tom
Brown (no relation to Mike as many have asked). Mike’s
brochure then goes on to claim that “the equipment neces¬
sary to regrow arms and legs can be purchased at Radio Shack
for about $10”, that is a “metal plate, copper wire, battery,
and 100 K-ohm to 1.5 Megohm resistor.” Heck, if you can
grow an amputated arm back with a only battery and a resistor
then why do we need all the electronics in a MWO just to
drive out mere cancerous tissue?!
As a final note on this, I would like to point out that
electricity is a system alterant. Whether it alters the system
for better or worse depends on many other factors, including
mental status. As Trevor Constable pointed out back in the
1960s in this Journal, the healing powers attributed to the
MWO could be caused by the etheric force rushing to sup¬
press the life-negative electro-magnetic activity. It is also
possible that any benefits coming from modem day MWOs
are psycho-tronic in nature — that is the min d is doing the
cure and the instrument provides a physical anchor for the
psychic energies. The actual operation of the equipment, the
sparking and gross electrical output, is superfluous to the
matter, other that in convincing the min d that someting is
happening.
EYE OF REVELATION
** One question: I checked out from the inter-loan library*
the book “The Eye of Revelation”, now known as the “Foun¬
tain of Youth”. It states that hurricanes rotate clockwise in
the N. hemisphere. To my knowledge, they rotate CCW in
the N. hemi. The book says to spin left to right (CW). My
natural inclination is to want to spin CCW. Running a little
test in the bathroom s inks here, I observed vortexes spinning
in either direction as the water went down the drain. My
question: Is the direction you spin in Rite 1 critical? Also, the
other evening, while using my visual ray (a la COSMIC
PULSE) on some clouds I observed some very unusual
phenomena. A full report is forthcoming as soon as I get time
to type my notes up. Fm implying several weeks as Fm
extremely busy on other dated materials. Alllcansayislwish
I had found out about BSRF and related groups 20years ago!!
I love it!

“Fountain of Youth” by Harbor Press is not the same as “The
Eye of Revelation”. BSRF publishes the only authentic,
original version of Peter Kelder’s book on the Five Rites of
Rejuvenation. The “Fountain” book rewrote the story and
changed some of the essential info, but does correctly show
how to perform the exercises, and it has done an excellent job
of spreading the info. If it says that hurricanes rotate clock¬
wise in the northern hemisphere then they made a mistake. A
vortex has a predominate direction, that is, water going down
a drain will flow generally in the CCW direction in the north¬
ern hemisphere and opposite in the southern, but with a
slight interference it will easily spin the other direction. I do
the first of the Five Rites in the clockwise direction, but it
could conceivably be done in either, depending on how
strongly the change of direction affects you. The most critical
aspect of borderland sciences is to go with what works, and if
CCW sp innin g works best for you then do it!
GALLIMORE UNITS
** I was reading the Journal recently and became inspired to
write you a letter about some of my interests; that may be an
interest to other readers. First, the study of Radionics (for
about ten years) prompted me to purchase a Gallimore
radionic device and several of his publications on the subject
What I would like to know is: are there others out there that
are familiar with Gallimore’s work or has a G allimo re port¬
able device that could shed some light on the workings of his
particular approach to radionics? I had initially communi¬
cated with Jerry over the phone when I purchased his device
but have lost contact with him over the years. Also, is there
a place that I can obtain the laws regarding the shipping and
use of a radionic device, (is it still against the law to ship
devices over state lines?).
Don Ellison
San Francisco, CA
Jerry Gallimore died in 1988, a real loss to the research com¬
munity. We have a Gallimore Agricultural Unit #2 here in
our collection and the detection system is a galvanic skin re¬
sponse meter, a definite and innovative change from the rub¬
bing plate. I was never able to get this to work, and Jerry
wanted to get together with me to show me how, which
unfortunately never happened. Ifanyofourmemberswishto
contribute more info on this the pages are open, as any
workable detection system for radionic energies is of prime
interest here. Ditto for anyone with current legal status of
shipping and use of radionic devices. I believe that they are
legal as long as not sold or used for human health, other than
immediate family, which is probably a good thing.

OUR ANONYMOUS FRIEND
** About that article by “An Anonymous Friend”, there are
only a few who could write an article like that in the Anthro-
posophical circle. I find it a bit disconcerting that anyone
would not want to be identified when they obviously have
much to offer.
I also find it curious that in the same issue there is another
article that touches on the same question. In Understanding
the Continuous Universe. Rhetta says, “The Universe has
not been created, it is CREATING by a thinkin g Force,
which destroys that which it is creating in a manne r which
keeps a perfect balance between composing and decompos¬
ing form.” The question is that of the nature of Force.
According to Russell, a la Rhetta, we have a Universal
Machine where by matter comes and goes almost of its own.
My question is how a ‘Thinking Force” can be termed a
machine of any kind. As our Anonymous Friend has pointed
out, there are Beings behind those Forces. There needs to be
a “ min d” behind Rhetta’s “ thinkin g Force”. And, where
there is a mind, there is a Being. What we have here is the
classic question of Consistency. I have found G. Spencer
Brown’s Laws of Form to be a handy Occam’s Razor in
instances of this sort In his book he addresses the use of
“glyphs” (to use C.S. Peirce’s term) in symbolic logic. Be¬
cause he uses essentially one glyph in developing his calculus,
it becomes fundamental to all forms of expression, from the
simplest two-value logic to the more elegant syllogistic logic
of written language. As regards Consistency, Brown states:
“If, in a calculus intending several indications, they are any¬
where confused, then they are everywhere confused, and if
they are confused they are not distinguished, and if they are
not distinguished they cannot be indicated, and the calculus
thereby makes no indication. A calculus that does not
confuse a distinction it intends will be said to be consistent”
In so far as one is looking for the “distinction” pertaining to
the nature of Force, one finds it “mind-full” in one place and
“mindless” in another in Rhetta’s article. This can be confus¬
ing, wouldn’t you say?

I don’t know who our anonymous friend is but I do hope that
he or she sends in more of their writings, as we got a number
of calls and letters wanting to know who it was -- being
anonymous draws more attention! Your discussion should
also include certain followers of Wilhelm Reich who will
accept the life energy only in its form objectively measurable
around orgone accumulators, and who consider any higher
awareness thereof (such as spiritual insights) to be a form of
psychosis brought on by sexual repression (and they’re seri¬
ous too). I don’t so much try for consistency in the Journal as
I do to make it an outlet for many patterns of thought on the
evolving side of consciousness. My personal orientation is
toward the spiritual scientific writings, as they are such rich
soil to grow in, and were there to be more available writings
of that type I would certainly publish more. Walter Russell
apparently had a great illumination concerning chemical
structure and the mechanics of universal force, but his spuri¬
ous illumination apparently did not give the universal insight
on many levels that Steiner maintained throughout his life.
However, we should not reject Russell’s work on that basis,
because if one looks at Steiner’s indications on how the
elements should be arranged they will find that Russell
provided the arrangement. I think that it is good to have
conflicting viewpoints as it allows for perspective and an
opportunity to really come to grips with one’s own view. And
then we can’t be accused of being dogmatid

Information resources and a nexus for researchers.
* THE AEOLIAN OUTLOOK is a newsletter exploring the
relationship between astronomical relationships and weather.
The AO for 1990-91 includes a few new features which should
aid in the effective use of the information. One new feature
is an expanded introduction which is designed to explain and
ill umina te the symbols found in the charts. This introduction
will aid those not conversant with astronomical symbols and
it also explains some of the t hinkin g that lies behind astrocli-
matological procedures. By referring to the examples in the
introduction, insight can be developed in the practice of long
range weather prediction.
A second feature is the use of the Becker-Hagens world
grid as a basis for the north polar projection used to cast the
weekly charts. The world grid is a series of lines which are
thought to represent the ley lines along which the energy of
the earth travels. Buc kmins ter Fuller used a cuboctahedral
grid lattice to do much of his advanced cartography. Becker
and Hagens, following the lead of Christopher Bird and a
number of Russian researchers use a dodecaicosahedral grid
lattice.
In a series of experiments this year it was recognized that
the Becker-Hagens grid offered tremendous opportunities
for stre amlinin g and economizing the coordinates used in the
Aeolian Outlook. Aspect lines which run parallel to the grid
lines are shown on the monthly maps as double lines. Experi¬
ments have shown that these parallel lines amplify and in¬
duce currents in the meteorological sphere. By only record¬
ing the grid lines which are being energized by planetary
aspects a much clearer and more accurate picture of storm
growth and decay cycles can emerge from the data.
Each year brings surprises and missed indications in the
workbut the mistakes often are doors to greater insights. The
1990-91 Aeolian Outlook is a clearer, more educational tool
for exploring astroclimatology. A six month subscription
includes a day by day prediction for the winter storm season
in the United States. Major Pacific storms are tracked from
the Aleutian or Hawaiian islands to landfalls on the West
Coast. Further frontal motion of these storms is easily
extrapolated for the Midwest and east coast Midwest block¬
ing highs and their attendant thunderstorms and cold weather
are included in the Outlook as are hurricanes and other
western Atlantic phenomena which influence the East coast
Broad changes in these factors result in persistent patterns of
local weather. The aim of the Outlook is to predict the broad
climatological changes which then effect local weather.
A subscription also includes a bi-monthly update which
analyzes unforeseen patterns and events and describes weather
anomalies from a planetary perspective. A subscription for

THE KAHUNA RELIGION OF HAWAII
by David Kaonohiokala Bray
and
Douglas Low
This is the first account of the Hawaiian religion written by an initiated Hawaiian priest ’
Only a true Initiate could give the clues to the basic spiritual nature of humanity, and convey so clearly
the relationship of these spiritual forces between man and the cosmos. This book not only describes
these relationships, but diagrams them, thus giving students a “road map” of the heavens which will lead
to the Light and Knowledge they seek.
The first section of the book is autobiographical and shows the true way of life of the original
Hawaiians as well as how they coped with the Christian influence on their spiritual life. “Daddy” Bray,
as he was known to his students, discusses his ancestral origins on the Big Island of Hawaii, from the
Kohala district, and his descent from the heroic High Priest, Kamehameha the First. The second
section of the book contains Bray’s instructions as related by his prize pupil Douglas Low, who was in
training with Bray for 12 years, both in the Islands and in California. Doug was a college professor,
whose field was philosophy and comparative religions, so this presentation of the Kahuna religion is
penetrating, scholarly and well illustrated. While many books have been written on Kahuna, none have
the penetrating depth, the clarity of detail, or the true connection to the original flow of mana like The
Kahuna Religion of Hawaii. Aloha...
