Eh, Lexx, what a creepy picture. I've never understood what owls have to do with aliens and conspiracy theories. Anyone know? I always thought they were really nice creatures, but that just may be the result of watching too many Harry Potter movies.
I like the picture. 
However;
I know most folks find French painter Agnes Boulloche's work creepy. Some is even to me.I wonder too why owls are associated with things like Aliens, and Lilith
Partly it could be the tendency to anthropomorphize owls due to their facing forward eyes just as we have.

I also wonder why there have been so many of that kind of owl in many of my dreams for a few months.
They smile and purr like cats or hum.

love the pictures! and love owls too. the reason they figure in so many stories, according to streiber, is that a lot of abductees had been having contact since childhood but all they could remember was a "cover" memory, implanted by the aliens i believe, of an owl or rodent with extremely large almond shaped eyes...until later on their memories were jogged and they realized it had not been an animal at all but a "visitor".i myself had a dream that took place in one of my childhood homes, of a large white rat (small dog size) with huge brown eyes. however i have no other conscious connection to these abductee stories. i did grow up very close to where streiber's vacation home and first book took place. many people i knew there claimed to have seen aliens or at least vessels. i myself saw something inexplicable in the sky one night there about 40 years ago. what appeared to be a plane in the distance stopped and hovered briefly in mid air, then zipped off at a right angle so fast it was gone in a blink. this was before we even went to the moon. what it was i still don't really know but it was very far away.

It looks like they're conducting surgery on the blissfully oblivious Moon. And the owls look kind of human in their eyes and nose/beak thing.On owl symbolism:
quote:
Celtic Owl Tradition
Cailleach-oidhche, Owl, represents wisdom, stealth, initiation, change and detachment. She is associated with arcane lore, clairvoyance, seeking deeper knowledge and death as a new beginning. Owl is aware of her surroundings at all times, has great intuition and the courage to follow her instincts. She offers keen insight into obscure occurrences, a bringer of hidden truth, omens and secrets. She is the power animal of psychics.The Celts believe Owl is a mysterious magickal, sacred animal associated with deities of the Underworld, a place of unpredictable change, and is a guide to and from this realm. This raptor is associated with the Moon and the Crone aspect of the Goddess. Barn Owl is especially revered as the one who sees without sight and hears the unspoken.
Owl in AmerIndian Tradition
Owl’s keynote is deception because she is able to see truth through delusion. She is associated with clairvoyance and white magic. Her power is strongest in the night. She is called Night Eagle by some tribes and sits on the East of the Medicine Wheel, the site of illumination. The Pawnee believed she was a symbol of protection. Cherokees believed Owl and Cougar were sacred because of their ability to see in the dark and bringing messages in dreams.
The Oglala Sioux held Snowy Owl in high esteem. Warriors who excelled in battle wore a cap of this bird’s feathers in honor of their bravery. The Siouan Owl Lodge believed the forces of nature bestowed keener vision upon those who wore owl feathers. Other tribes feared Owl and called her feathers deceivers, associating this bird with sorcery and dark magic. Ojibwas believed she was symbolic of death and evil. The Pueblos associated her with Skeleton Man, the god of death and fertility. Apaches were frightened of owls because they believed these birds embodied spirits of their dead. There is historical proof. Apache scouts tracking Geronimo were terrified when one of the U.S. Cavalry soldiers had a Great Horned Owl with him on the search. They said that it was a bad omen. They couldn’t capture the renegade Chiricahuas if the raptor was present. The animal was left behind.
Owls being used in old societies and rites was originally used to symbolize all the good aspects of the owl. When they were discovered as having a tie to these societies, they were automatically seen as satanic. IP: Logged |

Very interesting!
I had a strange incident happen to me when I was 4. (one of two in fact...the second not very nice but not going to recount that at this time)
I climbed out my bedroom window and followed some ??????? not sure what......
but suffice it to say, no memories after that about "them", except that they purred and hummed, and that I was found 2 miles away (there being a very dangerous highway betwixt my home and where I was found) the following morning, (some 7 hours later) very clean, even my bare feet were clean, in my white nightgown, laying on my bathrobe whilst sleeping on the doorstep of the old style general store/Texico station, all curled up and warm, despite the very cool Spring night.Cancer/Scorpio729
Thank you for that information! More here too.

Have you guys seen the show "Taken". ET's used mind control telepathy to visually make them appear as the childs favorite cartoon/book characters, in order to lure them out of their bedrooms at night and onto their craft...  IP: Logged |

The ones I followed as a 4 year old were not anything a typical child would follow.
Most likely it would terrify them!
I was going to post my next weird experience here, but am paranoid about doing that.
The place still exists (I had an urge to go see it a few weeks ago) and it is as strange and deeply secluded a place as I remembered. IP: Logged |

Watched this movie last night, good for a few scares but the Sumerian twist was weak at best if not downright stupid. (Would have been scarier if their identity was completely unknown)
