The 1991 [ 1995, Shurlene Wallace had the first in a series of life-changing paranormal experi- ences. They involved contact with inter- planetary and interdimensional beings and travelling throughout the galaxy and dimen- sions in both physical and astral form. She prefers to describe them as "trips" rather than "abductions", and she reports that most of them were very positive and life-affirm- ing. She may have been subjected to experi- mentation, but she also underwent some powerful physical self-healing as a result. Uncommonly, her few contacts with so- called Greys involved their shape-shifting into other beings; on most of her travels in spacecraft and to other worlds she was accompanied by very human-looking types. Fortunately, Shurlene had the support of her ufology-literate, identical twin sister Earlene Carr to help her make sense of her experiences psychologically and understand mn thom in theit historical and cultural contexts, "Dolphin" glyph, for instance, may repre- After one time when Shurlene was suppos- sent the orbit of Nibiru, the "planet of the edly teleported to Mars and interacted with a gods known to the Sumerians and identi- Black race of humans, Earlene explained fied by Sitchin as passing through Earth's (referring also to Robert Temple's Sirius orbit every 3,600 or fewer years.
