"I always did seem to think that there was probably more to life than the stories that people were telling me about. It wasn’t until the early 1980s that I actually got into the paranormal.
Basically, shortly after my grandmother passing, she quite dramatically re-entered my life and started giving me a series of visions or conversations. My Gram really led me into a whole new career and a new life. She told me that out of all the people remaining in my family, I was the only one awake enough for her to get through to.
I wish that I could say that she answered all the great questions we have about life after death but it wasn’t like that. Still, from those conversations and my subsequent research, I know things don’t just terminate when our body dies.
Eventually, Gram told me that she was going to turn me over to someone else. She said she had “more work to do” that didn’t involve me. She even told me that I’d soon hear about a woman named Helen who lived in Berkeley.
After this, I was in a meeting with our local Edgar Cayce study group when someone arrived all excited about a psychologist named Dr. Helen Wambach who was giving sessions in Berkeley, doing research for a book on reincarnation. Of course, as soon as I heard Helen and Berkeley, I immediately went to see her, and in a sense the rest is history.
The sessions that I did for the next two years with Helen formed the basis of my book “Mass Dreams of the Future”. We switched to progressing me into the future for her research because she found I was an excellent hypnotic subject. Helen had been working on reincarnation from many viewpoints, looking into all the different aspects of Time.
One of the things that fascinated her, was the idea that under hypnosis one might not just be able to look at the past but also one could get some clues about the future. For the next two years I learned her regression and progression techniques in weekly sessions.
Later when I travelled across US I came across this landscape that I just felt was like the one I had seen in the progressions with Helen some six years earlier. I was amazed. I thought that this pun was the universe playing a neat trick on me.
One thing these major unexpected changes have taught me is that one isn’t condemned to live the same future that you may have previewed in a progression. These can reveal the main themes of what’s coming, but many aspects of the future are still under our control.
I am very interested in the Hopi prophecies. I have a chapter in my book that goes into Native prophecies, and how so many of these prophecies seem to pinpoint the late 20th, early 21st century as a time both of great upheaval and great promise. Of course, the Hopi calendar is based on the ancient Mayan calendar, which as people today are now learning, comes to a transition point at the time of the winter solstice in 2012.
In February 1991 someone from England sent me a copy of one of the first books on crop circles. It had line drawings and photos. I believe it was like a Friday morning. The phone rang and a young Native American fellow, said “You don’t know me but I’m a friend of your friend in Sedona and I also live with some of the Hopi traditional elders and they are going to be having a special gathering this weekend and they want you to be a part of it. Can you come?”
When I asked why I was being invited, the guy said, “Well I read your book, and I see you talk about the Hopi prophecies. Some of the Hopi elders want to tell you their real prophecies.”
They wanted to talk to me about their propheciesone. The piece that was broken off was given to one they called the Pahana, the light skinned one who had taken it east, toward Europe. They were hoping that maybe I might have found someone or some group that had knowledge of this in Europe. Unfortunately, I’d never heard of anyone with something like that over there. They were looking for the piece of that lost tablet.
Then, synchronistically, everything changed. Curious to see their reaction, I had brought some photocopies of some pages from the English crop circle book. They were amazed. They went from reserved elders to acting like school boys. They were very interested in this. Of course, they were looking for signs from Europe, and I think they realized that here were some of the signs they sought; some of the symbols in the crop circles had deep and sacred cosmoligical meaning to them. These glyphs were primarily about the beginning of what the Hopi call the Fourth World, that current age of civilization they seem to feel is coming to an end or a crucial transition point at the 2012 Winter Solstice, and therefore, a very important time in prophecy. Well, that experience hooked me on crop circles.
My wife and I decided to dedicate ourselves to bring together the best and most credible experts from many levels and different points of view to try and understand what is happening now. These are our Signs of Destiny conferences. A number of people are coming to talk about and to share knowledge of what I think is one of the greatest world mysteries of our time.
Another way that we spread this information to the public is that my wife and I distribute/sell the Wiltshire Crop Circle Study Group’s annual Crop circle calendar, which is printed with color photos of the best English crop circles from the current year. It’s the only calendar that shows the ones from the current season, by the way.
All of these things, in my opinion, are a part of our work of helping to educate the public. Although I am not a scientist per se, I am a social scientist, and sociology interests me, cultural anthropology, and history. I think I also have a vision of a better future ahead and I have been shown things about this. These future visions, many of them, some for the good, some for the not so good, seem to be coming true.
My sense is that in the time until about December 2011 (in 2012 I think things are going to be going so fast it will be difficult to make many plans) we’re going into a time of great fear or great opportunity. Remember to make a loaf of bread; all you need is a certain percentage of leaven in the dough. We’ve had crop circles that involved all these themes.
We are co-creating our future with each breath we take and each intention we hold."
