UFOs like didjeridoo? Canadian sighting

Postby professorpan » Fri Oct 06, 2006 5:38 pm

Sorry, I got this in an email and don't have a link:<br><br>UFO Sighting Near Invermere Reported To Researcher<br> <br>By Ian Cobb<br>Echo editor<br>Oct 04 2006<br><br>The northern lights turned into something a little different for some Invermere area people last week.<br><br>Watching aurora borealis in a field outside of Invermere Sept. 24, the unnamed witnesses said they observed numerous oval-shaped discs darting about in the sky above them.<br><br>Adding oomph to this sighting is that there was an identical report out of Castlegar that same evening, according to Brian Vike of HBCC UFO Research, out of Houston, B.C.<br><br>Vike contacted The Echo to relate the reports, hoping to inspire others to come forward with "any unusual sightings of strange objects in the skyover the past while."<br><br>"The Invermere sighting is in line with the others sightings for the same night. So something strange has been happening over the skies down there," said Vike.<br><br>"This particular rash of UFO sightings started in Castlegar, actually, and a number of folks have reported seeing several dark circular shapes, flying in formations, and performing unusual aerial acrobatics.<br><br>"It now seems that people in Invermere are seeing the same sort of thing, and on the same day when the objects were witnessed in Castlegar.<br><br>"I don't usually write over cases/sightings unless they are really unusual, and in hopes of trying to find others who witnessed this very same thing.<br><br>"The reason of course is to try to figure out what folks saw," Vike stated.<br><br>The following is the sighting as reported last week to HBCC UFO Research.<br><br>"On Sept. 24, at 12-1 a.m., my friends andI went into a high point of a field just outside of Invermere to watch the aurora borealis over the Rockies. One of us noticed silhouettes of multiple uniformly shaped ovals, which at first appeared far away but moved closer towards the town and seemed to make formations.<br><br>"At some points a few would disappear, but then we saw where others seemed to reappear at a different point in the horizon.<br><br>"This continued for a good 10 minutes when one of my friends brought out a didgeridoo, one of those native Australian musical instruments and played loudly and pointing right in the direction of the dark shapes (at this point they seemed to be much closer as they were much greater in size).Almost instantly one appeared much closer than the others and was much more circular as you would imagine looking underneath instead of to the side.<br><br>"My friend continued to play, and put on electronic music, when three more came above us.There were no lights and we could not make out any details of what it was, just that they were big and round, but more flat when looking from the side, like whatI would imagine a silhouette of a flying saucer to look like.<br><br>"Another thing is we would have never seen them if the northern lights weren't going on as it was for this that we could see the silhouettes in the night sky.When they disappeared they could have very well have been in another point in the sky and we wouldn't have been able to see them. The whole experience lasted about 25 minutes."<br><br>Vike said the identical sighting in Castlegar, 355 km by road from Invermere, adds a great deal to the reports, especially because he was speaking to the witnesses in Castlegar on the phone while they were seeing the strange phenomenon.<br><br>"I was talking to the gentleman who was watching the event take place while speaking to me on his radio phone; we ended up losing one another, or lost the phone connection. He called back approximately 15 minutes later when he was able to get to a landline and we still had problems with the phones. In both instances the objects were being viewed while the witness is explaining what was happening, so very unusual," Vike said.<br><br>If you saw anything strange on the evening of Sept. 24 or any time before or since, contact Brian Vike, director HBCC UFO Research at 250-845-2189 or email: hbccufo@telus.net. <p></p><i></i>

I know a few didge players...<br><br>Its a trippy instrument, not just musical, but also a magical tool.<br><br>There are cultural taboos on didges. One is that women are not supposed to touch them. (Pretty phallic and all).<br><br>I came across two reasons for this.<br><br>the first was the fear that women playing the didge could expose themselvesd to forces from outside. The didge can be a portal and sometimes that portal can interfere with or replace the spirit that should enter a woman's body during pregnancy.<br><br>The other was possibly a bit more open.<br><br>"In the olod days women played the didge and had all the power. Men got sick of this and took the power for themselves, and stopped women using it."<br><br>Once we were playing some out in the paddock watching the sunset. My friend had one tuned to C which he reckoned matched the resonance of the suns spiral journey through the galaxy. It was awesome to feel the whole vibe of the area change, the "gold afternoon fix" became even more golden, and was like liquid in the air.<br><br>it was a beautiful moment.<br><br>Didge's are very trippy things. <p></p><i></i>

"gold afternoon fix"

Postby km artlu » Fri Oct 06, 2006 9:46 pm

Thanks for that phrase, Joe. It's a nourishing experience, one I always recognize and try to soak up when I can. It's gratifying to know others feel the same. <p></p><i></i>

Its not mine, a band called "the church" used it as the title to one of their albums back in the 80s.<br><br>It can be truly awesome especially around here. One sunset I was in the bush just as the gold light hit, it was sunset and the mist was rising. It was like being surrounded by jewels of gold light.<br><br>Slimmouse i know everything is about resonance and stuff, but the didge does have a whole load of taboos with it about where it should be played cos of what it invokes. Most musical instruments probably did once upon a time tho. <p></p><i></i>

"What it invokes"

Postby marykmusic » Sat Oct 07, 2006 12:16 am

I can speak here as a musician...<br><br>Drumming has long been known to be a trance-invoking doorway into the spirit world. This can be shown in many different cultures, from the Siberian shamans' frame drums, to the goblet drums (such as Djembe) of West Africa, and the large drum played by several people in Native American dances... and dancing to the drumming is another way to go into trance.<br><br>Any old Deadheads here? Didn't those long, convoluted solos create a trance both onstage and in the audience? (Drugs weren't the only reason for zoning out. Sometimes, musicians on the road simply can't find any. Happened to me occasionally; had to get in the zone <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>straight!</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->) I never really was into the Grateful Dead, but understood and appreciated what was going on.<br><br>Shoot, some of my best songs have been written while I was in semi-trance! Just sitting by myself and letting my hands simply play the guitar. That's a zone, too. Sometimes, when performing, I'll introduce a song by saying, "My guitar wrote this one." Here's an example: <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.soundclick.com/bands/songInfo.cfm?bandID=141724&songID=957841" target="top">"Good Woman Down"</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>Didgeridoo is another of the many instruments I've tried to play and couldn't; I'm strictly strings'n'skins. That there are taboos associated is not surprising. That it may be about the men being jealous about the most basic power of all-- to create-- being relegated to Woman, is a believable explanation, as long as white guys are explaining it. The Mormons did sort of the same thing; as a young female friend explained, "The men have the priesthood because God wanted them to have something all their own, since the women can have the babies."<br><br>But I hate to drag the otherwise-impressive Australian aborigine Shamanic tradition down to that level. --MaryK<br><br> <p></p><i></i>
