Chet Snow, Ph.D., is an internationally acclaimed author, lecturer and
regression therapist with degrees from Columbia University and the
Sorbonne in Paris. Chet, a former president of the Association for
Past-Life Research & Therapies, has given over 500 past- and
future-life lectures and seminars including a lecture at the United
Nations in 1994. He has been featured on Sightings, the Art Bell Show and
NBC's Ancient Prophecies. Mass Dreams of the
Future: "Do we face an Apocalypse or a Global Spiritual
Awakening?" is the subtitle of this remarkable book, product of the
researches of psycho-therapists Drs. Helen Wambach and myself over 15
years ago as we tried to assess humanity's hidden inner-vision of our
species' future. In a series of experimental seminars between 1980 and
1988, we tested thousands of volunteers, putting them into a light
dream-like state that I have named a "waking trance." Then we
"progressed" them forward across time and space using Helen
Wambach's unique method of "Future Life Progression Hypnosis,"
to preview Earth's and humanity's most-likely alternative futures both 150
and 300 years from now. No one—not even the different therapists
conducting the sessions—could have predicted how closely the "mass
dreams" of these perfectly normal, ordinary volunteers would coincide
with little-known historical prophecies from many of the world's
indigenous cultures as well as those of celebrated individual prophets
such as Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce. This exceptional research forms the basis for my book, Mass Dreams
of the Future, that was first published by Mc Graw Hill & Co., in
November 1989. Now in its fourth paperback printing by Deep Forest Press,
it gives us an incredible glimpse of the results of everyday life and
choices in the 22nd Century and beyond, based on the timeless visions
stored deep within the subconscious minds of ordinary men and women from
our own time. Their amazing stories, told in this first ever scientific
survey of what our culture's "collective unconscious" really
believes about what we will have to face after the year 2000, cannot and
should not be ignored. Its message, that hidden within our dreaming mind
may lie essential keys to unlocking and even altering the future, is more
timely today than ever before. As we begin the twenty-first century of humanity's current era, it
is clear that Earth and our solar system are in the throes of a profound
evolutionary transformation. This meticulously conducted research, coupled
with my vivid personal "future memories" taken under hypnosis by
Dr. Wambach, reveals many important changes in the years ahead with
possible massive climate shifts, world-wide earthquakes and volcanic
eruptions in the Pacific Rim, all leading to severe Earth Changes,
including Japan's imminent collapse into the sea and the sinking of large
portions of our own West Coast. Although the dating of some of my own
personal "future memories" has proven premature, the sequence of
events that I describe remains not just possible but plausible, especially
if some of the more dramatic incidents are understood as symbolic
warnings—a way for my own subconscious to galvanize me and my readers
into action while there is still time to modify some of the more extreme
conditions I foresaw happening already today. But what is next? What will happen if and when still-suffering
humanity and our Mother Earth survive current challenges and disasters?
What may life be like in the years of 2100 AD and beyond? Vivid, personal
"dream accounts" from two future periods of 2150 and 2300 AD
reveal such extraordinary developments as these: 1. Most of humanity will
live in just four environment types: First: sylvan, ecologically-sound
creative and spiritual communities widely scattered in temperate zones;
Second: hi-tech cities dependent on domes and other artificial protections
against a harsh exterior environment; Third: isolated, rustic settlements
of people who have forsaken technological solutions to Earth's problems,
returning to a simpler, less-complex life-style; and Fourth: space-farers
who inhabit artificial space stations above the Earth, or build protected
colonies on nearby planets like Mars. 2. The emergence of
clans or tribes of people born with enhanced telepathic and other psychic
powers. 3. A period after 2300
AD, known as the "Outward Wave," when humanity will no longer be
bound either by this solar system or by present-day concepts of 3-D
reality. Before dismissing these accounts as mere science fiction or fantasy,
critics must acknowledge that several of my 1983 predictions for the
mid-1990s, including the Yugoslav civil war and break-up, the rise in
Pacific Rim volcanic, and world-wide seismic activities, have already
happened. Other, more-extreme forecasts like the sinking of part of
California and Hawaii have not happened in the late-1990s time frame
predicted. Nonetheless, the extreme weather patterns with temperature
spikes and severe droughts vs. floods in unusual places are definitely
still taking place. Moreover, our findings have had a profound impact on such
authorities in the alternative health field as Dr. Raymond Moody, who
wrote that Mass Dreams of the Future is "an important and significant
book . . . in this time of both great crisis and great opportunity for the
world." Death and dying researcher Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross has
said: "I could not stop reading this fascinating book and although
many aspects of it look grim, it also looks very realistic . . . It is
very important we begin to realize that our minds create our future."
Finally, The Aquarian Conspiracy author Marilyn Ferguson called Mass
Dreams of the Future: "A compelling vista . . . Snow has tackled his
subject with the thoroughness of a scholar and the spark of a
storyteller." Since the publication of our pioneering research, I have continued
compiling data on the future visions of the mass consciousness from around
the planet, studying indigenous cultures like Arizona's Hopi nation and
Australian Aboriginal peoples, to compare their points of view with those
of the subconscious minds of our Western subjects. The results, as yet
unpublished, demonstrate that today's humanity, whether from Hotevilla,
Johannesburg, New York or Woomera, continues to see significant cultural
and environmental changes just beyond the horizon. Striking contemporary
events like massive UFO sightings and the enigmatic crop circle formations
bear witness to the fact that we continue to live in "interesting
times." All of the four future civilization types outlined in my book
are currently distinguishable, albeit still in somewhat embryonic form.
Only the reason behind the massive decline in world population that both
our dreamers and indigenous seers foretell for our current century has yet
to be identified in a clear and unambiguous fashion. And, even there,
there's no lack of potential causes, ranging from a massive outbreak of an
Ebola-like virus or other plague, to a solar flare, asteroid strike (or
even a near-miss), or the cumulative effects of over a century of fossil
fuel burning, provoking severe global warming. So, as we move forward beyond such celebrated dates as 1984 and
2001, we must continue to ask the question posed by Dr. Helen Wambach and
myself: "Do we face an Apocalypse or a Global Spiritual
Awakening?" And the ultimate response that we found in the mid-1980s
still remains true because the ultimate choice between these two
widely-touted future archetypes is still ours to make today. Let us choose
wisely, with humility and compassion. Our children's future, and just
possibly our own, depends on what we choose now.
