| In another instance of high strangeness, concerning an event at Tiny’s Diner in Twenty-Nine Palms, California, a “space bother named Adam offered Orfeo an ‘oyster white pellet’ which he plopped in a glass of water. After the pill plopped and fizzed, it created an amber colored nectar – ‘a very rare champagne’ – that emitted a pleasant, intoxicating fragrance. After downing his intergalactic cocktail, Orfeo felt as if transported into “some radiant star system.” Later in this adventure, celestial music emerged from the glass of nectar and Orfeo beheld a tiny woman dancing inside with long, golden hair, brilliant emerald eyes, her lovely body barely concealed by a translucent silken robe. Orfeo described the expression on her face as an “eternity among the angels.” When Angelluci reappeared in the late 1980’s for a PBS documentary of UFOs he stated, “What I think happened was that I dreamed a lot of my experiences which came back through my subconscious in visions.” (12) It sounds to me like some of these “contactees” may have actually been real contactees, not of alien intelligences but state run, domestic intelligences, like the CIA or a faction of it. What were these agencies doing giving psychedelics to people interested in UFOs? Another interesting tidbit taken from Gorightly’s excellent resource, documents a little-known character who liked to take psychedelics and visit the Giant Rock parties, who may himself have been one of the party makers. Quoting Gorightly: “Like Woodstock, a subtle psychedelic influence gradually seeped into the Giant Rock conventions in later years, due in part to pioneering acid gobbler named Bernard Copley who frequented the event sharing samples of “cosmic debris.” Founder of the Hypnosophic Institute in nearby Joshua Tree, Copley authored Hallucinogenic Drugs and their Application to extra-Sensory Perception (1962) which chronicled his freewheeling experiments with acid, mescaline, peyote, and magic mushrooms.” (13) There is a very interesting photograph taken at Giant Rock in the 1950’s during one of these conventions and the image does appear very convincing (93l). It would not surprise me if it was genuine. It looks similar to other images from the same period, which do show this phenomenon. I am not completely convinced, either. I had taken notice of the fact that Melchizedek had come up in UFO contact and channeling materials, and Vallee confirms this in Messengers of Deception. Vallee reminds us that the Stella Matutina, the successor to the Golden Dawn, has an Invocation of Melchizedek. Nesta Webster mentions, in Secret Societies and Subversive Movements that the Freemasons have a Melchizedek Lodge. |
 (93l) "Giant Rock, Ca. On the webpage for the Grand Chapter of the Royal Arch Masons of Alberta, there is a page for the “High Priesthood of Melchizedek,” which includes information on this subject. The page begins with a very curious passage: “My Companions, you have been consecrated this day by the laying on of hands and the anointing of oil. This is a ceremony which is so old that we cannot accurately date it, but for more than 6,000 years this ceremony has been the privilege of many thousands of men. It had its beginning in the primitive priesthood of the ancient past before Abraham began his entry into the land of Canaan and then came down with many breaks, through the Jewish line for almost 2,000 years, until the time of Christ. But this High Priesthood is not a Jewish priesthood for the High Priesthood of Melchizedek ante dates the Jewish priesthood by 500 to 600 Years. You. Today have been inducted into a very long line of sacred and holy responsibility and this experience is not to be taken in a light and frivolous spirit, or as it is, just another degree. ”This is a sacred and solemn experience for you are among the chosen few who have been selected for this high honour today.” (12) A is for Adamski, p. 20-21 (13) ibid, p. 366 |
