81 Her most impressive UFO dream occurred in the wee hours of December 31, 1992, and, like so many abductees’ “dreams,” this one proved to be the memory of a very real event. Jane’s journal entry for that day began with her noticing a new mark on her body around 8:30 am. It was a straight, “grooved” line over 1-1/2 inches long on top of her shinbone near the ankle. Then she described the dream. “Had vivid! dream,” she noted, “with extraordinary! auditory and clear images, during the night... between 3:00 and 5:15 a.m. | dreamed | was walking outside when an extraordinary buzz-hum began. The sound was loud, riveting, and pervaded through my body, throwing me into a ‘void or mental isolation.’ The sound seeped into my ‘ordinary’ consciousness...a powerful sound. “| looked up, and a huge, gray, metal [saucer-like] spaceship dropped straight down from the clouds on my right,” Jane continued. “| sat down on a ‘mesa’ cross-legged as it sank to earth. As | looked at it, it changed to a sphere on four legs with strange marks on it. “Shortly thereafter, it lifted straight up and then began a curved flight in front of me and circled to my left. | yelled, ‘Hello, hello’ and it swooped in to look at me. Its force field was a tremendous, pushing, pressure against my body and was pushing me over, and | started to fall off the mesa. “| asked it to ‘move away, | can’t keep my balance,’ and it came right up to my face in front of my eyes. | began to fall. ‘Don’t let me fall, don’t let me fall,’ | pleaded. | sensed it caught me, and | lost consciousness and blacked out in my dream! “| woke up at 5:15 a.m. panting hard. | could still hear that powerful sound. I'll never forget it or the extraordinary sensation. Somehow, | know that that is what they really sound like. The dream seemed real, more real than | want to admit. I’ve never had a dream like that! Never. So clear and lucid.” Seven months later, Jane decided to undergo regressive hypnosis to explore some of her strange memories and experiences. In the first session she recalled a hitherto- unremembered event from childhood, and in the second session she examined the UFO dream. Once she was in a trance state, Jane didn’t describe the onset of the “dream” as she’d recalled it. Instead, she said she was on the bed but got up and walked away because the powerful sound was hurting her ears. “And then | go back and sit on the bed,” she said, “I’m sitting cross-legged, and it drops in the room. The sound, it’s a real thing. It’s got hold of me. Vibrating.” When asked about how the globe came into the room, Jane began crying and described an entirely different scene. “They’re standing in front of me,” she said, describing a group of human-looking men. “They’re in white clothes, and very tall. They’re watching my reactions. I’m standing barefoot on a cold, shiny floor. The sound’s coming in my chest, a vibrating sound they’re all making. They’re all looking at me intently. They're tall and pale.” When the hypnotist asked if she knew them as friends, Jane said, “They’re not enemies. They’re talking, telling me their energy’s going in it [the vibrating sound]. That I’m anointed. That whatever hard times may come, to have courage. That there would be times when | most need the shell to protect me. But | have to learn to help build it. And that not even the most solid shell could help protect from some of the stuff, but it would do me well to at least attempt it.... And that | will be frightened at times, but that fear is transitory and that it doesn’t really hurt me.... Oh,” she said suddenly, “but now | have to go in the other room! The doors open up funny and disappear. The room’s so bright!”
