The Bell study includes such diversified phenomena as sky falls (odd objects dropping out of the sky) unusual storms (rains of frogs, etc.), things observed in space, and things seen in the sky. All of these phenomena tended to duster - to occur simultaneously in specific months and specific years. The waves or cycles of these events were repeated approximately every 9.6 years. The study dealt largely with data from the nineteenth century. Ancient magicians and seers were quite familiar with these cyclic factors. The earnest religious and occult lore discusses rays which periodically sweep our planet from some extraterrestrial source and cause everything from miracles to sadness and catastrophes. Strangely, the Australian Aborigines, the South American Indians, and the tribes of Africa, as well as the ancient Babylonians and other early cultures, all pinpointed the Pleiades (a cluster of seven stars), and the constellation of Orion as that source of these rays. Rays from outer space are an integral part: of all human folklore. In time all of these intangibles will be puttied down by courageous scientific investigators (studies of this kind are still very unpopular among scientists). Already we know (or have relearned) that all paranormal manifestations have a tendency to occur in the same places year after year; that they follow specific patterns within our own time scale; that only specific people can witness or become involved in these events. The logical jumping off place for any future investigation is to study the witnesses in depth and to explore these Gateways carefully and methodically. Small groups of psychiatrists, para-psychologist, geologists, and physicists are now engaged in studies of this type. One significant factor, which is hardly a secret to the occultists, is that the Window areas tend to be places where peculiar magnetic faults exist. Our haunted planet is covered with magnetic faults, and interestingly enough, many of them are grouped around the ancient mounds, temple sites, and spots where flying saucers are seen most frequently. Psychically oriented people living in these regions tend to have extraordinary experiences with elementaJs, angels, MIB, and spacemen (numerous examples will be given further on). A leading authority on mythology and mysticism, poet Robert Graves, recently stated: There are some sacred places made so by the radiation created by magnetic ores. My village, for example, is a kind of natural amphitheatre enclosed by mountains containing iron ore, which makes a magnetic field. Most holy places in the world -holy not by some accident, like a hero dying or being born there -are of this sort. Delphi was a heavily charged holy place.* Back in the Middle Ages the Vatican pointedly ordered that new churches should be constructed on the sites of old temples whenever possible. The tradition of sacred places runs deep and seems to be largely based upon the continuous observations of paranormal manifestations. The entities who allegedly approached human beings in miraculous events frequently ordered a church or temple to be built onJie spot. But we didn't need an order to erect tie great churches at Lourdes and Fatima after the entities appeared there. Remember the legendary nineteen-year cycle of Stonehenge, when the god was supposed to appear? Multiply the Fortean cycle of 9.6 years by 2. A magnetic survey of the United States was carried out by the
