Time flows in a circular motion, repeating itself in "seasons" that are much like a year on earth, similar time periods with the same general events. Because of these revolutions of time,...

Jehu is transported to the end of his age by the mysterious Lord of the Past, and finds himself caught in the middle of a society at war over how to divert the Big Bang that is foretold by their geologists. What follows is, as they say, history.< Less

More > advanced technology they developed secretly, they traveled through time to the late 19th Century, an age of relative geological stability. Since then, they have been responsible for many of the UFO sightings and alien abductions that have been reported.
In 1940 these UFO occupants abducted Ida Kannenberg and implanted her with a device in preparation for making contact with her years later. After years of painful training Ida found herself in telepathic contact with a constant companion inside her head: Hweig. Ida maintained her skepticism, and her good humor, throughout, both of which are apparent in these essays.
Here the Old Atlanteans explain that their overall purpose is no less than the evolution of man; for us to regain our lost psychic abilities, and to emerge at last into cosmic adulthood.< Less
