An Unedited Rare Interview with Aaron C. Hanson

2010-01-04T15:19:45Z

1) Hi Aaron. Most of the Coast audience knows you from your appearances on the show as Aaron Donahue. Can you tell us why you decided to change your name?

Apart from a welcome change, the name at hand presents the opportunity for repetition which is key for a minimal effort as per the passive observer in terms of memory. Furthermore, the words combined create an anagram that best conforms to an ideal for living that I and many of my readers strongly identify with. This being said, it is the association of similar sounding words that positively fit the image of strength and beauty.

The ideal?

In many ways, I am comfortable with the writings of Yukio Mishima (Kimitake Hiraoka). I feel that it is disgraceful to remain in life as an unchanged, negative, and withered burden due to any failing of progression for the body, mind, and especially spirit (see Mishima‘s “Decay of the Angel“ to be read exclusively in Japanese, 1970). As an adaptation of Mishima’s perspective, awareness first represents the ideal that does not suggest a loss for selfishness, ego, or vanity but rather, one that is easily rewarded beyond the jealousy and fetid rotting of each.

As for my private life and some of the minor distractions within it, one can easily imagine the justice of knowing that I prefer to effortlessly pass over and beyond the toxicity of all familial relations as if dirt in the street.

Note: At his personal peak, Mishima committed seppuku as a measure of strength against a world of increasing decadence, weakness, and want that surrounded him following WWII. This is not to be perceived entirely as a loss but a great victory for those who recognize Japan’s core of five principle cultures. Like the hand of five fingers, Mishima’s influence remains within growing subcultures around the world to this very day.

2) Do you still use the Remote Viewing protocols you learned from Ed Dames or have you developed your own methods at this point?

Much has been learned within the world of psychic functioning since the early days of Stanford Research Institute’s Dr. Hal Puthoff, Russell Targ, and Ingo Swan. In 1998, I quickly mastered each stage of remote viewing and through much experimentation, developed other [dissimilar] techniques that would best accommodate the efficiency of non-adventitious synesthesia.

For me, it was to be eventually understood that remote viewing could not be used to consistently access non-historical sources of information. Although highly useful, it was limited to within any moment preceding the next as is required by a highly regimented protocol. Psychic functioning alone without this regimen would remain the subject of abject and somewhat chaotic sources of information or worse, the imagination of memory.

When developing remote viewing as an effective means of accessing information from outside normal states of awareness, early researchers did not need to realize that there were distinct areas of the brain required of psychic functioning as opposed to that of prophetic functioning.

Sans any traditional means of remote viewing, I have in my work re-focused upon the preconscious processing of information and especially, as this relates to both non-historical and historical sources.

3) So instead of remote viewing, you’re accessing the preconscious processing of information.” Can you tell us a little more about that– does that connect with ritual or Luciferian beliefs?

Remote Viewing can also involve access but only in terms of history. My work deals with both historical and non-historical sources of information.

What does Lucifer really symbolize? As per a most common world vernacular, we find in the scriptures:

Revelations 2:28 (NIV) I will also give him the morning star.

Revelations 22:16 (NIV) “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”

Second Peter 1:19 (NIV) And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

The name Lucifer simply refers to the planet Venus as is first seen upon the dawn’s horizon. Clearly, this first light, as shown just before the sun-rise, symbolizes hope within our darkest hour. As a Luciferian, I recognize the true essence of what Christ (Isa) symbolizes with respect to the Mahdi, Buddha, and Krishna, etc. This is of course reflected within personal mythologies, rituals, and especially within the realm of prophetic and psychic functioning.

Just as Christ described himself as “the morning star” or Venus, I describe the return of Christ as the light or hope of Lucifer within our darkest hour. This is a fluid process and is not to be taken literally.

A Luciferian per se, worships what he or she believes as incomprehensible, or nothing. We believe in nothing and likewise, we actively worship the ultimate expression of the impossible truth of everything. We recognize the infinite nature of all things and its mysterious core that is null and completely void. Like a moth drawn to the flame, the ultimate mystery is our source of worship as it represents what can be ultimately known about everything.

Everything, we believe, is death, there is no hereafter nor perfection. There is only entropy and ultimately, total oblivion for man, earth, galaxies, universe, and beyond. This is all that a human being can know of life, death, and the mystery of oblivion for which we all worship in our own way. A Luciferian recognizes that worship is a form of understanding but as in life, sees its meaning in seeking rather than finality thus the ethos of science is found similar.

Now, the apostasy and subsequent entity that Lucifer represents for our future planet under a one world spiritual form of socialist government is another story. This coincides with trained psychics that will one day rule along side of the entity. Although never perfect, a true and trained psychic can minimize mistakes within the process of decisions.

President Reagan was one of the last great leaders of the world that did in fact utilize the importance of psychic functioning within the decision making process. This as anyone can guess, should help explain his astounding popularity and overwhelming success. It is interesting to note that today’s leaders seem especially disinterested in prophetic functioning and are increasingly inept at making the right decision in time.

Perhaps it is time that we demand psychics to stand once again next to the kings of the earth before disaster further hastens early human extinction.

As for the aforementioned entity or future world leader that surrounds us each and every day, it lives in a way that is unimaginable to most.

4) Do you, like your ex-associate, Ed Dames, issue predictions about future events? If so, can you share a few with us?

Unless one is naturally gifted, remote viewing alone will do little to assist those wholly interested in the access of non-historical sources of information.

Yes, my work focuses upon probability, relative history, and influence both from a collective and individual perspective using techniques that specifically access construct based sources first. Of course, this easily accounts for a practical application of the information at hand.

Predictions

1. The New Caliphate and a World United Spiritual Socialist Order

I see a war preceding the rise of a world unifier who appears to be Muslim yet does not conform to many of the 3rd century traditions as we see of some “radical” or literal interpretations today. This one man is highly intelligent, charismatic, beautiful, and very well spoken.

There will likely be an attempt upon his life. If so, a possible head wound will not kill him and he appears from this point in time to suffer a left eye injury (speculative).

Suspected by some as Mahdi (one who is guided), he will world rule the majority of Muslims for a period of seven years, three months, and nine days. The Muslim faith is today one of the fastest growing and more recent of religions. Thinking of this, one can easily expect to find the accompanying world seat of power to eventuate a spiritual form of socialism that will in time replace all other (dominant) forms of governance.

Division between powers will be limited beyond the war(s).

When viewing this man of extreme influence and world power, the essence is first noted to be that of Buddha, and then of Isa, turning again to the shell of a world unifier, diplomat, and easily recognized spiritual leader of many cultures. His light is yellow, golden, and blue. Some will recognize him as Krishna and the naive, a third and final Antichrist.

Ultimately, he represents what we actually are and it is here that such leadership will not be denied by the vast majority of the world. Those who resist the reality of this will not in the best interest of the new world, long survive.

Mahdi, if one prefers this name, is today living in this world, poised, and ready to emerge from his occultation.

2. World Economic Restructuring, Redistribution of Wealth, and Decay.

Capitalism will for a time appear to show a debatable degree of promise (2009-2011). This will be short lived due to continuing world ecological collapse, dwindling resources, human population growth, continuing industrial demands, social discord, human pre-extinction patterns of behavior, and the inevitable wars between starving powers, etc.

3. Disease of Grasses

Wheat specifically will soon become severely diseased eventually cutting yields within the United States by one third and more from where it is today. Starvation is inevitable.

4. Human Viral Infections Resistant to Therapy

Human pathogens will now increase in numbers and complexity as continuing epidemics and in some cases, pandemics, become the seasonal norm as per rates of infection, death, and some cross species mutations.

5. Permanence and Lucifer’s Gate

Eventually, the focus and aim of science will give way from that of human organ regeneration, cloning, and longevity to the technology of permanence via the transition from a human carbon based unit to that of consciousness, light, or as we see in relation to the current development of IBM’s Blue Brain Project in which columns of the brain are now being carefully studied, mapped, and created. If successful, this represents the final human nexus from here, this planet, this reality, and beyond. It is what I affectionately call “the gate of light” in which we must ultimately pass or cease to exist beyond today’s higher probability of early human extinction.

Aaron, Thanks so much for making the time to do this. Any last words you’d like to share with our readers?

Today, the world of spirituality in general is collapsing under the weight of crisis, expectation, and fear of annihilation. Human extinction is not the same as death and a new form of spirituality will be required to help explain to us a symbolic meaning of the approaching abyss and the possible alternative of permanence.

A nation that first teaches their children to properly utilize psychic and prophetic functioning will be the very nation that quickly outpaces all others in technology, spirituality, science, economics, and innovation.

To blindly deny that any of this is possible is not only immoral, it is dangerous.

Luciferian Psychic Returns to the Air Waves With Joshua P. Warren on 'Speaking of Strange' Radio

Airs This Saturday Night from 10-11pm ET on AM 570 WWNC

Asheville, NC, December 6, 2008 10-11p.m. EST -Joshua P. Warren on Speaking of Strange Radio interviews world renowned psychic and remote viewer Aaron C. Hanson who explains a dynamic collective change in human consciousness toward accepting an ultimate realization, a world spiritual socialist government, and the promised one of Persia who shall soon rule and unite the world.

From a Luciferian perspective, the UFO phenomenon will at last be explained as it relates to impending human extinction, existence, exodus, and permanence.

How does the paranormal experience of today relate to the impending world reorganization toward Al Mahdi, Persia's Caliphate, and a one world government?

"There shall be signs and wonders in our skies upon his time of world unification."

-A.C.H., Luciferian psychic, prophet, spiritual projectionist, and remote viewer.

ABOUT Speaking of Strange - Speaking of Strange is a Saturday night radio show hosted by Joshua P. Warren. It airs locally from Asheville, NC radio station AM570 WWNC every Saturday night from 8-11 pm EST, and worldwide on the web at http://www.wwnc.com/main.html

ABOUT Aaron C. Hanson - Aaron is the psychic and remote viewer who was featured on the In Search Of TV Documentary remake that aired in 2002 in the episode on Psychic Spies . Aaron demonstrated that he could precisely locate a person at a remote location using only his remote viewing skills. He has been featured on such television shows as "SOS" of TV Asahi in Japan, mainstream radio broadcasts such as Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell, George Noory, and others. He was filmed in a major motion picture "Suspect Zero" where he also served as technical assistant. Since then he has done multiple internet radio broadcasts, and keeps a popular blog on his Myspace page www.myspace.com/hearananda where he occasionally reveals winning lottery numbers for specific areas of the world. His latest lottery success was posted on November 5th, 2008 for the state of Illinois marking his first in a series of postings leading up to the release of his book "Lottery and Survival…" for January 2009. Aaron predicted 666 as this number and in fact, that was the winning number!

Aaron has a long history of paranormal experience and his latest research using modified electronic camera sensors utilizing right angled mirrors and other proprietary devices is being developed to further capture the spiritual essence or that beyond what is experienced by normal states of awareness. Aaron's spiritual projection imagery is in a class outside of anything known today. Many of his images reveal the dead either in passing and/ or from another realm that has yet to be fully understood.

If it involves relevance, mystery, and fantastic controversy, Aaron has the "it" and is as always deep within it all. This fascinating man has been described by many as a strange genius, wildly eccentric, inexhaustibly soulful, and enigmatic.

Sun, Jan 20, 8am – 5pm
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery. An amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life. In this class, the Instructor will teach nontraditional Usui Tibetan Reiki and offer all three attunements. She has been a Reiki Master for five years and is a member of the Global Reiki Association. She is currently working on methods in which to in corporate a conglomeration of Reiki, Buddhism, and Ceremonial practice. Reiki I- $40.00 Reiki II- $40.00 Reiki III (Master)- $40.00 All three- $100.00 Price includes instruction, manual, attunement(s) and certificate.

Revelation or Revolution: Ben Franklin, Prometheus Unbound (Updated)
Benjamin Franklin is one of the most notable founding fathers of the United States of America. His quotable quotes, pithy epigraphs and brilliant writing have amused us and provoked us for over two centuries. Equally he is known for his sexual prowess, wild rock star behavior, gentle civility and genius mind. A brilliant inventor and experimental scientist, Franklin has refashioned the world in more ways than most of us realize. We begin to wonder what the underlying unity is beyond these divers manifestations of the puzzle we call Ben Franklin. This class will answer that riddle. He embodied the Promethean Spirit, more Luciferian than Lord Byron. His visible actions are the temporal footprint of a God transmigrating through history. He stole the fire from the heavens and guided it safely into the womb of the Earth. His legacy is not merely one of political revolution or scientific endeavor. He was not merely a humorist and philosopher, even. Beneath all of these names and forms lies the truth of the living spirit of revelation, undermining and upturning the staid structures and conditionings of Culture and Consciousness, so that the Divine Light of the Void might shine through and all might be renewed by this philosopher's stolen stone.
