Dorothy Meets E.T.

Ever wonder what it would be like to be Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz and not just go over the rainbow, but beyond – to other worlds with other peoples? What practical information, ideas, or gifts might you find there to bring back home?

Spiritual Practice, Occultism, and Extraterrestrial Intelligence: A Travel Guide for Beyond the Rainbow by Judy Kennedy explores the connections between extraterrestrial intelligence and spiritual practice in a historical context. Delightfully unique, yet practical and empowering, this comprehensive book dispels disinformation about politics, occultism, and conspiracy theories typical to this genre. “The Wizard of Oz mysteries” is a unifying theme providing an enlightening backdrop, for the book is divided into sections that correlate to the story.

The word “occult” simply means hidden. Occultism is a practical, engaged spirituality using practices not commonly known or understood. Yet supersensory awareness and seemingly supernormal abilities are expressions of energies lying dormant within everyone. When the keys to the mysteries are freely shared, the truth about these practices is no longer occult. Modern science confirms the principles upon which these practices are based daily. The bridge between spirituality and modern science is one of many symbolic meanings of the rainbow. Venturing beyond the rainbow in the tradition of the Wizard’s Dorothy and other heroes, a great secret about the esoteric mystery schools is revealed. The impact of our extraterrestrial ancestors on the evolution of these spiritual traditions is thoroughly explored. Finally, a new perspective together with practical instructions facilitates the awakening of the “inner Dorothy” within us all.

The combined academic expertise and personal experience of the author gives her an ability to see connections between things, people, and events not ordinarily discerned. Kennedy holds an M.A. in Interdisciplinary Studies (Music, Psychology, and Philosophy) with post-graduate research in music therapy, parapsychology, and psychophysiology. She has also extensively trained in the Western mystery schools since 1972 including affiliations with Wicca, Unity – Church of Esoteric Christianity, and Builders of the Adytum – Temple of Tarot and Holy Qabalah. Personal work and study under a Dzogchen Master and Lama in the Eastern tradition of Tibetan Buddhism compliments her training. Finally, successful completion of the CSETI (Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Ambassadors to the Universe Research Training has provided her with the research tools and experience required to truly navigate “beyond the rainbow” from home base – Earth.

This stylistically unique, yet practical, comprehensive, empowering, and enjoyable tome is published by Paper Wings Publishing, LLC (ISBN 0977013200) and immediately available from most retail and wholesale distributors.
