Octopus aliens
While doing chores in his barnyard at 6 A.M.
on August 16, 1968, a Serra de Almos, Spain,
farmer noticed a light about half a mile away.
Thinking it was from a stalled car, he walked
over to help what he assumed to be a stranded
motorist. The “car” turned out to be a globeshaped
object hovering just above the ground.
Nearby were two bizarre-looking creatures
that resembled octopuses. They were light in
color and three feet tall, and they were dashing
on “four or five legs” toward the UFO,
which shot away as soon as they entered it.
Journalists and ufologists who examined
the site soon afterward found an abundance
of burned grass. They also reported that their
watches had abruptly ceased operating.

Ogatta
Ogatta is, in the channeling of North Carolina
psychic Greta Woodrew, one of five
planets in a “jorpah” (solar system) in another
galaxy. (The other planets are Oshan, Archa,
Mennon, and Tchauvi.) Woodrew, a wealthy
O

professional woman who grew up and lived
much of her life in New York City and Connecticut,
discovered her connection with
Ogatta while exploring her paranormal talents,
prominently including metal-bending,
with noted parapsychologist Andrija Puharich.
Under hypnosis on December 17, 1976,
she underwent an out-of-body experience, in
which she encountered a figure with both
human and bird features. It was clad in a silver
suit and had marvelous, golden eyes with a
loving expression. Via telepathy she learned
that he was Hshames from the Ogatta jorpah
(his actual home planet was Mennon).
Soon, under hypnosis and then by channeling,
Woodrew was communicating with
other entities, one named Ogatta after the
planet. She would form a particularly close association
with a female Ogattan named Tauri.
She learned that many cosmic civilizations,
including the Ogattans, are visiting the Earth
in ships; the Ogattans call their ships “gattae.”
Woodrew herself had a dual existence. In one
aspect she lived on Earth; in another she lived
on Ogatta as “Plura.” Plura had made the decision
to live—or at least to have a part of her
life—on Earth in order to prepare earthlings
for the coming Earth changes that will devastate
much of the planet before a new age
brings peace and harmony.
