Virginia, who once served as a technician with the Air Force, remembers that her activating experience occurred on a Christmas Eve when she was about four. The incident was highlighted by an out-of-body experience when Virginia got up and "walked" to see the Christmas tree lights, then saw her still-sleeping body lying in bed.

"I knew that if I woke up then, it would still be Christmas Eve and I would still be four years old," she said. "Then I knew that somehow, that even If I didn't wake up until years later, like Sleeping Beauty, nothing would change. It's really funny, but that incident formed my entire approach and attitude toward life. I know that, somewhere, I'm still four years old, and it will always be Christmas Eve."

Luana, a former schoolteacher from Nevada, wrote that after her encounter with an alien or a multidimensional being as a college student, all of her senses became extended. In the area of sight, her color perception extends in both directions, principally on the blue end.

In hearing, the extension is such that any loud noise of prolonged duration--over thirty seconds--sets up a vibration which first causes pain in the mastoid area, then causes uncontrolled shaking which lasts for several minutes. The nerves of her entire body "jangle" and only subside when the noise ceases. It takes a good hour to return to normal. Sirens are a constant menace.

As a retired schoolteacher, Luana recalled that one of her worst experiences with noise occurred in the school parking lot when all the drivers began honking their car homs to celebrate a sports victory.

It took fifteen minutes to get away from the noise. and a half an hour before she could get control and get out of the car. It took a stiff drink to dull her nerves to a semblance of normality.

Bright light is also a hazard for Luana. Once, standing in the sun, perceiving flashes off band instruments, caused a temporary blindness. Her students led her back to class. It took about half an hour for her sight to return.

Emotions seem to create problems for those who experience "alien dreams and memories," because they are so empathic. In order to function effectively as counselors, they must learn to create shells around themselves. As Luana remembered it:

"At one time in my mid-twenties, it was necessary for me to escape from my friends whose problems and joys I absorbed to such an extent that I was physically drained ... It was also at that time that I learned to seal my emotions off and no longer absorb so much. There have still been recent times when I have been physically drained by the problems or excitement of others, but the renewal is rapid."

In his response to alien dreams and memories, Cliff, a hospital intern, expressed a hypersensitivity to light, touch, emotion, and hearing, but he has found some compensation in a response that other respondents have also noted: "When I kiss or make love, I hear music coming from the other person and/or myself."

Sensitivity to vibrations considered "musical" by those in the physical plane is also a common factor in the individuals who have responded to our Steiger Questionnaire (see www.bradandsherry.com) Cliff said that he was also visited by such entities as a "girl-woman who radiates shining white light and speaks in a soft, musical voice."

Consistent with our earlier research, those who wrote regarding their alien dreams and memories were at least 87 percent "night people," who prefer to do their most important mental or creative work after sundown.

In our broader sampling of individuals with such awarenesses and memories, we find that about 94 percent of them vividly recalled their activating experience with an entity or light manifestation at about the age of five, while the other six percent are consciously aware that "something important" happened to them at that time.

Nearly all those who claim such memories remember always yearning for a place that they consider their "true home," somewhere not on Earth.
