I've met non-human people and the revulsion isn't on a mind/judgment level, it's often somatic, as in feeling a quesiness in my stomach and an unsettling feeling. I think sometimes body reaction to alien energy is nausea because it is basically radiation sickness. If I attach emotions to the pure physical sensation it can feel like raw animal revulsion, akin to when a dog with mange approaches my dog, before I even see the other dog's manged and infested parts my dog can sense it and begins acting vicious rather than her usual friendly self. So we have a natural aversion to something invisible that may be toxic to our system. And I for one, have not raised my frequency enough to be able to tolerate radiation
Then again, when I sense alien energies that I don't get the body reaction with, I'll get more of an expansive yin-type feeling in my body, I find this energy very charismatic and may attach emotions of positive regard to that feeling.-lala

I think that we are more integrated with our bodies/emotions and natural instincts when in the dream state. In 3-D part of the continuous blitz of stimuli is designed to dull or injure our instincts. This includes mind stimuli like boring educational curriculums, jobs, etc. I have found that there is a natural push in 4-D that is much more forceful than any way that I would relate to physical people in 3-D. If I look at old Egyptian statuary, the kind with the upraised arms, palms-out hands, I think that I see the astral push being modelled in that. Good for keeping stuff out of your field or those "holes" that they talk about in the aura, etc.-lala

...The courage to face infinity without flinching.

This is a bit tangenital, but that's what I feel that the 7th Harry Potter book is all about.

But, now, yes, I suspect that courage is the answer.

As Don Juan said, The courage to face infinity without flinching. Not because we are brave or hard, but because we are filled with awe.

   It's alot more interesting a game than pulling rocks for someone elses pyramid...

montalk, yes, if I ask myself what I actually felt when revolted by something's energy, what I said to myself (in effect) was: "Ugh, that's gross" not "Ugh, that's sure different."  When I've been repulsed by a person's energy it's been because they emulated extremes of indifference, hate, contempt or cruelty.  Not simply because I found it different.

And GreyCat, you remind that change in ourselves can be effected by awareness alone.

I have noticed, too, that I am more my natural self in a meditative state or dream state.  Right after I began dreaming avidly again (at about 21) I had a dream in which a friend of mine was scoffing the idea of humans having souls.  I looked right at him and said with clear, unruffled conviction "We have souls."  It shocked me so much that I said this that I woke up.  I was struck, because in real life I wasn't 100% convinced of it, but the dream caused me to realize that deep down that I believed it unwaveringly and without a doubt. 

I've also purposely called negs to me to do battle in dream states.

And, montalk, your mention of the "stone men" reminded me of a conversation with a white friend of mine who grew up in New Mexico on the reservations.  He's talked about "stone men" to me, too.  I've have to ask him about it again because I can't remember him giving any details per se.  But on a quick internet seach, I found this:

So, my question is: do you guys imagine that there is a way (other than being repeatedly abducted) to acclimatize yourself to the feeling of alien energy?  So that if you ever did meet one face-to-face you wouldn't be overcome and overwhelmed?

You hit the nail right on the head actually. It's, I think, weakness of the STS pyramid. They have to feed on us, but they have to do it in a way that provides as little knowledge as possible in the process. STS beings only take, or from alliances with other STS beings so the taking becomes more efficient. If they give any idea what so ever as to thier identity then they loose polarity. So the more you are AWARE of them, the more you see and deal with them, the more tricks of the trade you learn on what they are. It takes a heck of alot of vigilance to do that though.
  I remember one of the first encounters I had where I could actually SEE a negative entity (and I can just as easily say Alien as they are all interconnected.). I purposly calmed myself down and a very peculiar instinct came about (which took a while, working through initials fears and disbelief.).
  REMEMBER I said to myself 'remember everything you can about this experience'. Slowly I began to piece together all sorts of information about thier habits and thier 'flavors' as I call them. Each encounter made me a bit wiser and the last trick they played didn't work twice. Now I'm twice as aware of when they are around, and twice as aware of how they muddle the waters of my etheric to make me confussed.
  Yeah, I get thrown a curve ball now and again, and one is never sure when we will all be rounded up in pens and slaughtered. But what else can you do but gain more knowledge? And hope the cavalry shows up...
  Then again, they could be purposly creating false attack experiences to lur me into a sense of false confidence and spring the trap when I get too cheeky.
   You have to tread lightly in this game...

But if you had to face one anyway without losing yourself, it might simply require great courage and a strong ability to hold on to your feeling connected to the heart, the Creator, and the basic spiritual truths that keep you centered in the consciousness of your real Self when you think about them. Something inside that is stronger than fear, that can let you act with poise in the face of something destabilizing. Whatever it is, it would be the same thing that could let you surmount life's challenges and face your own insecurities. Some type if inner foundation to stand solidly upon. Part of it could be faith based on knowledge and experience, maybe?

Here's another thing to consider. Not sure if you have experienced this, but in semi-sleep mode (when out of body) I am more my natural self than when awake. I have instinctive behaviors that are basically psychic self-defense methods. If there's a threat around, say some astral interloper or alien entity, whereas I might get freaked out in my waking consciousness, in my sleep/trance/astral state I go after it with supreme confidence and gratitude for the opportunity to kick some neg ass while I can. It's a natural reaction. My point is that there's a possibility that by the time we will have to face weirdo aliens in the future, we ourselves might have already naturally evolved (or awakened to) a higher state of beingness where it won't be a problem because we'll know via inner knowledge alone what to do.

The aliens I saw as a kid, I termed the "stone men" because they came off as inorganic yet animate and had the texture and color of light gray stone. The word that comes to mind to describe their vibes would be... "wrong." Just plain wrong. Like zombies or beings that are aberrations of nature. A bit like the cenobites from the Hellraiser movies. And the alien I encountered outside my door in 2002 had a similar vibe. It was definitely different, but there was something more to it. Because between two points is not only a difference, but also a direction or vector, and when you sense the vibe of something different you can tell what direction it's pointing. And the direction was basically the wrong way. Wrong and creepy and icky, like the pale reanimated corpse of a human-tarantula hybrid.

I'd assume you'd have to do some major shielding but probably you'd need some kind of advanced secret government tech.

Well, I don't have any hook-ups in the black ops departments.  So I guess that leaves me to look elsewhere.

Once, when I was doing a meditation, instead of drawing Earth energy into my body, I decided to be funny and channel Mars energy up through my feet.  It only felt slightly different to me, but made me feel subtly agitated.

Why couldn't a person acclimatize in that same way?  ...I would never purposely run alien energy through my system, but with practice, I bet I could draw it into a room or into an object.  Could be dangerous, though.

Listening to the Jim Sparks interview with Art Bell about his abductions, he said that Grays/Reptilians have (obviously) a different kind of energy from us and that that energy is naturally upsetting to our systems until we become used to it.

Other sources have said this, too.  I mean, you'd think that just encountering an alien could be terrifying anyway, but it makes sense that part of that terror comes from the fact that their energy is so different from human energy.  I recently re-read Castaneda's "The Art of Dreaming" and he talks about how human energy "wavers" and how the energy of inorganic beings "sizzles" (and how it takes time to become accustomed to the sizzling feeling). 

So, my question is: do you guys imagine that there is a way (other than being repeatedly abducted) to acclimatize yourself to the feeling of alien energy?  So that if you ever did meet one face-to-face you wouldn't be overcome and overwhelmed?
