UFO Encounters and the Occult: A Skeptical, Spiritual Interpretation

To the point

Heath Henning argues that UFO phenomena are primarily spiritual and occult rather than merely physical spacecraft, drawing on John Keel, Edward U. Condon, and Jacques Vallee to show sightings that feel non-mechanical or like apparitions, abductees who shift toward occult or New Age worldviews, and accounts of astral travel, telepathy, divination, and initiation rites with mystic messages and allusions to Ishtar, Aleister Crowley, and Gurdjieff, alongside claims of Soviet cosmonauts trained in parapsychology.
