Alice A. Bailey – The Unlikely Occultist – Hakan Blomqvist's Blog

Hakan Blomqvist touches upon the difficulty of communicating non-traditional views to the mainstream in this review of a truly novel means of doing so. Isobel Blackthorn has converted her PhD dissertation and work on the theosophist Alice Ann Bailey into a semi-biographical, semi-fictional book, and Blomqvist is taken by the tome on multiple accounts. Perhaps most significantly, Blomqvist thinks “This work can actually function as an introduction to studies in the Esoteric Tradition.” John Keel site manager Doug Skinner continues his publication of John’s “The Reeves Papers: A Modern Rosetta Stone?” with two installments. Readers may recall that, following a UFO sighting in 1965, John Reeves found two sheets of “alien” script. Reeves tried to translate them, thinking they were akin to other purportedly “ET” symbols, and even to a “Unified Symbolism” scientific writing system two avowedly humans developed in the 1950s. In The Reeves Papers (5) John Keel engages in some involved speculation, attempting to “save” the legitimacy of at least the second of the two pages. And The Reeves Papers (6) includes a number of pictures and symbols from various sources, the last sheet of which will make people familiar with the Socorro insignia take notice. (WM)
