Remote Viewing, UAPs, and the Paranormal: Bridging Hidden Realms

Remote viewing, originating during the Cold War, offers insight beyond physical perception, linking it to unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) and paranormal activity. The connections suggest shared mechanisms related to consciousness and reality. This exploration invites further investigation into these anomalies and their implications for understanding our existence and the universe’s nature.

1. Introduction: A Meeting of Mysteries

Remote viewing emerged as an experimental tool for intelligence gathering during the Cold War. It offered the tantalizing prospect of transcending the limitations of physical perception, allowing trained individuals to access hidden or distant information through extrasensory means. While skeptics often dismiss such practices as pseudoscience, remote viewing has found enduring interest among those exploring the fringes of human potential.

Its implications, however, stretch beyond clandestine operations. Recent discussions have pointed to intriguing overlaps between remote viewing, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), and paranormal activity. These intersections are not coincidental. They suggest the possibility of a shared underlying mechanism—one tied to the mysteries of consciousness, perception, and non-local reality.

The connections between these phenomena are compelling. Like remote viewing, UAPs and paranormal events challenge our understanding of physical laws and human awareness. From reports of alien craft glimpsed through remote viewing sessions to claims of psychic encounters with spirits or entities, these phenomena hint at a broader framework of interrelated anomalies. This article explores these connections, posing the question: Could remote viewing serve as a bridge, not only to hidden earthly truths but to dimensions and realities beyond our own?


2. Remote Viewing and UAPs: Exploring the Unknown

The historical overlap between remote viewing and UAP phenomena began with government-funded experiments like the Stargate Project. During these experiments, remote viewers were occasionally tasked with attempting to observe UFOs or extraterrestrial encounters. Declassified CIA documents reveal attempts to use remote viewing to investigate the presence of extraterrestrial structures on Mars or to explore purported alien craft.

One notable example involved remote viewer Joe McMoneagle, who claimed to perceive a massive, pyramid-like structure on Mars, dating back thousands of years. Whether interpreted as metaphorical or literal, such experiences hint at an underlying connection between the consciousness accessed in remote viewing and the unexplained phenomena surrounding UAPs.

Pat Price claimed to view a pyramid in Alaska in which he saw humans working along non-human entities.

Modern UAP studies provide additional layers of intrigue. UAPs often demonstrate behaviors that defy conventional physics, such as abrupt acceleration, hovering without propulsion, or even apparent cloaking capabilities. Some theorists suggest that these anomalies might result from advanced technologies manipulating dimensions or frequencies, potentially operating within a framework similar to that exploited by remote viewing.

Remote viewers today continue to focus on UAPs, seeking to decode their purpose, origins, or even occupants. Reports from these sessions frequently describe encounters with glowing orbs, structured craft, or entities that are either humanoid or entirely alien. These experiences suggest that the phenomenon may interact with consciousness itself, inviting speculation that UAPs, like remote viewing, tap into a universal field of awareness.


3. Remote Viewing and Paranormal Phenomena

Paranormal experiences often mirror the principles of remote viewing: perceiving entities or events beyond the reach of ordinary senses. Remote viewers have described encountering ghostly apparitions, shadowy figures, or even hearing disembodied voices during their sessions. In some cases, they report perceiving entire environments that align with descriptions of “haunted” locations.

Consider the accounts of viewers who targeted historically significant sites known for paranormal activity. Descriptions often matched documented phenomena such as unexplained cold spots, residual sounds, or the presence of “energy fields” suggestive of spiritual entities. These overlaps raise the possibility that remote viewing operates within the same metaphysical space as paranormal events, accessing realms or dimensions where such phenomena exist.

Interestingly, many paranormal hotspots—like Skinwalker Ranch in Utah—show a blend of paranormal and UAP activity. Witnesses have described encountering cryptids, glowing orbs, and poltergeist-like activity in these areas. Remote viewers tasked with exploring these locations sometimes report visualizing energy patterns or interdimensional doorways, concepts that echo both spiritual beliefs and modern theoretical physics.


4. The Unified Field of the Unknown

What might explain these connections between remote viewing, UAPs, and paranormal phenomena? One possibility is that all three are manifestations of a singular phenomenon: the interaction between consciousness and a non-physical reality.

Theoretical models like the quantum field theory or holographic universe hypothesis provide potential frameworks for understanding these interactions. If consciousness exists beyond the brain as a field or wave, it could interact with other forms of non-local energy or intelligence. This might explain why remote viewers sometimes encounter UAPs or spirits—they are tuning into the same underlying reality.

Alternatively, the interdimensional hypothesis suggests that UAPs and paranormal entities exist in parallel dimensions and that remote viewing represents a method of briefly accessing those dimensions. The lack of material evidence for these phenomena could result from their transient or “non-physical” nature.

Finally, some researchers propose that these experiences are co-created, influenced by the intentions and beliefs of the observer. This aligns with findings from parapsychology, where the observer effect—familiar in quantum mechanics—is believed to shape paranormal or psychic outcomes.


5. Conclusion: A Journey Worth Exploring

Remote viewing, UAPs, and paranormal phenomena each challenge our understanding of reality. When examined together, they suggest a tantalizing possibility: that humanity is on the brink of uncovering deeper truths about consciousness and its role in shaping the universe.

Far from being isolated mysteries, these phenomena may represent interconnected aspects of a larger, unified framework. Remote viewing could be the key to understanding not just distant locations or objects, but the very nature of reality itself. The connections to UAPs and paranormal activity hint at dimensions yet to be explored—both within and beyond human perception.

By embracing these mysteries, we take the first steps toward integrating them into scientific inquiry and cultural understanding. The journey is as much about expanding the boundaries of knowledge as it is about questioning the limits we impose on what is possible.

Remote Viewing: Yes it’s Real

That’s what you were thinking. Well do you at Fortean Winds think it’s real? For sure, friend. For sure. I’ll prove it to you.

Let’s start by just calling it intuition. Do you believe you have intuition? Do you believe some people are more intuitive than others? Is that a belief or do you know that to be true? How do we know all this? We’re remote viewing you right now.

Kidding. That’s a lot of assumptions on my part, but I’ve basically told you what I’m going to tell you. Remote Viewing is real. You do it. Everyone does it. Some people are better at it than others.

This insight lead the US and Russian governments into a now infamous psychic spy race which involved Uri Geller, the man who claimed to bend spoons. The scientists, psychics and research of that time (1972 to 1995) are well captured in the film “Third Eye Spies.”

Remote Viewing is being able to see something in the future, present or past without being physically able to view or see “the target.” You can see why Russian and US Intelligence were interested in the program. The world’s most famous psychic Ingo Swann correctly determined Jupiter had rings similar to Saturn prior to the Voyager spacecraft confirming it.

What did those two decades of research find? Well if we believe the story ends where the film ends. They found remote viewing was “statistically significant” but unreliable. According to the US Government, they decided to discontinue the program and move on to other things. How statistically significant was remote viewing? Very.

The unreliable part is also real. Physicist Russell Targ, who worked on the US Psychic Spy program, brought a team of remote viewers to Wall Street in order to make some money predicting stocks. The team was successful in their first set of picks, but unsuccessful in the second. The investors got cold feet and Wall Street took a break from psychics. From here, remote viewing research in the US continued to a lesser degree outside of the public eye.

Yet, there is good reason to believe the government did not end their remote viewing program. UFO whistleblower and former counter-intelligence specialist Lue Elizondo was alleged to have recounted military missions wherein he used “advanced intuition” or remote viewing to aid his team in a military mission. From the book “Skinwalkers at the Pentagon” (Lacatski, Kelleher, Knapp 2021)

As he enjoyed his steak tartare, Elizondo regaled those around him with some war stories, including one hair-raising exploit about how his advanced intuition and remote viewing capabilities had saved his life and the life of his men while on a covert combat mission in war-torn Afghanistan. Lue was one of that rare breed, an astute detail oriented analyst with an open mind.

In 2020, investor Michael Ferrier launched the Remote Viewing Tournament App. Ferrier became interested in remote viewing after having experienced a session of remote viewing where he himself was able to pull it off. The app re-ignited interest in the phenomenon.

Ferrier saw an impression of a bronze globe during a radio show about remote viewing, and his psychic impression was close enough to the correct answer to get him interested.

Ferrier’s app allows viewers to compete for cash prizes. The principle is simple and the app is free for anyone who would like to try it.

I’ve tried it, and I’m shocked to say it works. My results have been consistent with the conclusion of the CIA study. I am definitely seeing and sketching images before I am shown them at times, but the results aren’t always exact. Sometimes, you have to interpret them. Don’t believe me. I wouldn’t and you shouldn’t. Try it yourself.

If helping billionaire’s make stock picks is not your thing, two other apps to try remote viewing are the Stargate ESP Trainer app on iPhone and the Zener ESP app on Android. Russell Targ who worked on the CIA remote viewing program (called Stargate) was involved in the creation of the iPhone app. I’ve tried the Zener ESP app it does what it’s intended to do well. No frills.

These apps typically detail with precognition (foretelling events that will happen) and postcognition (seeing events that have already happened). The apps work similar to the cards in “Ghostbusters.” In the case of precognition, the app doesn’t “draw” a card until you’ve selected which of the five cards it will be. In the case of postcognition, the card is already “drawn” by the app when you make your selection.

It works well enough for us to wonder what the heck is it? Our current level of science doesn’t understand consciousness that well yet. Recent developments in neuroscience have lead some doctors to believe glial cells, which make up 90 percent of our brain (and are very mysterious) might be the home of consciousness. Somewhere in there might be the answer to remote viewing as well.

Clearly, something is happening here between the brain and time. The RV Tournament app uses coordinate data and gives you two sets of numbers such as 8702-1469 and then asks you to sketch what you see. Once your done sketching, you’re given one of two photos to select based on your sketch.

If you’re just on a guessing hot streak, your sketches would indicate it. They wouldn’t be very good and directly related to the image. I would suggest going on the site and looking at what a “good” remote viewing sketch is. They’re rarely perfect, but they’re good enough. Good enough to be more than coincidence.

If you delve deep into this subject it can bring up all sorts of questions about space and time. The universe and our place in it. Predestination vs free will. One suspicion, I have is the future is always changing, and that’s why remote viewing is unreliable. Which is kind of comforting if you think about it. You make your own tomorrow.

If you’re interested in trying out the apps and becoming a better remote viewer, here are some basic tips to get you started:

One technique is to practice meditation or other forms of mental relaxation, as this can help quiet the mind and increase focus and clarity. This can also help to enhance one’s ability to enter into an altered state of consciousness, which is often associated with remote viewing experiences.

Another technique is to develop and practice specific protocols or methods for remote viewing, such as those developed by the US government-funded Stargate Project. These protocols typically involve a structured process for selecting and describing targets, as well as methods for reducing bias and maintaining objectivity during the remote viewing session.

It is also important to keep a detailed record of remote viewing experiences, including any impressions or sensations that were experienced during the session. This can help to identify patterns or trends in one’s remote viewing abilities and provide a record of progress over time.

Overall, developing and improving at remote viewing is a highly individual process, and practitioners may need to experiment with different techniques and methods to find what works best for them. It’s also important to approach the practice with an open mind and a willingness to explore new possibilities and experiences.

I’m sure this won’t be our last remote viewing post. For now, I’ll be putting this in the Case Files as “Crazy Real” and worth further study.
