Why are so many people claiming to see or have messages from UFOs, angels, aliens, and spirits? Are these "invaders" felt to be good, or bad? Are they proof of end-of century hysteria or expanding consciousness? Three books explore the topic from refreshingly different viewpoints.
These are:
G. Scott Sparrow's I Am With You Always: True Stories of Encounters With Jesus (Bantam; formerly titled "Witness to His Return" by A.R.E. Press); Keith Thompson's Angels and Aliens: UFOs and the Mythic Imagination (Addison-Wesley); and Bear & Company authors David Spangler and Wm. Irvin Thompson's Reimagining the World: A Critique of the New Age, Science, and Popular Culture.
When Edgar Cayce, in a psychic reading, told spiritualist Eileen Garrett to conduct her own research on her spirit guides, she hired Jungian analyst Ira Progoff to investigate.

What Is the Occult? (And What Is It Doing In America?) An excerpt from Occult America: The Secret History of How Mysticism Shaped our Nation, by Mitch Horowitz
News drifted back to the Old World: A land existed where mystical thinkers and mystery religions, remnants of esoteric movements that had thrived during the Renaissance and were later harassed, could find safe harbor.

It encompassed a wide array of mystical philosophies and mythical lore, particularly the belief in an "unseen world" whose forces act upon us and through us. It is called the occult.
