Excerpt taken from "Everything is Under Control" by Robert Anton Wilson
Secret Cipher of the UFOnauts
A very strange book, even for the field of UFOlogy, The Secret of the UFOnauts, by Allen Greenfield, attempts to show that the same ciper apperas in the strange words used in UFO contact cases, in some "channeling," in certain Freemasonic rituals, and in the enigmatic "Liberal Al" received by Aliester Crowley in 1904. When deciphered as a form of English Cabala they reveal that "the Fully Illuminated" have interacted with the UFO phenomenon throughout history.
The UFO phenomenon itself is defined in Jungian terms: " . . . The phenomena themselves are inherently intangible, but are able to impinge on our reality in phenomenological way because they are archetypal."
That is, in the sense of Jungian psychology, "myths," if archetypal (rooted in the depths of the mass unconscious), have the power to shape events and change history. The word "myth" is used here not as a synonym for lie or falsity but as a different order of communication from daily language, as poetry and allegory are also different. Jung himself expressed much the same view in a 1952 book called Flying Saucers: A Modern Myth of Things Seen in the Sky.
Greenfield goes further than Jung (who didn't know about the Illuminati): "The Fully Illuminated are in control of reality to the extent that the mythos itself is in control. They also, in a very real sense, acquire its intangibility" (p. 13). Or, as Don Juan told Carlos, they create a fog about themselves so that nothing about them is for sure or certain. They can be discussed better in the language of poetic myth than in that of grocers and tax auditors.
Although Greenfield links some of the ciper to Sirius and Orion, he never unambiguously identifies the "entities" as extraterrestrial, preferring John Keel's word, ultr-terrestrial. He does, however, point out (p. 32) that Crowley's 1920 sketch of an "Enochian" (angel/demonic) entity LAM, looks suprisingly like the Greys in modern abduction stories.
