As the first article in this series explains , "The Star of Sorcerers" is a group of ex military officers, spooks, scientists and remote viewers (more than likely a combination of these).

A fellow member of the Quantum Future School and I had an exchange which I thought pertinent to share. It raises some questions about this collective with answers.

There will be more, I wrote the article as the first part of a series.
Basically there is a network of people who seem to be inter-related with players on the fringes. Whether these people on the fringes have been co-opted, co-erced or just plain duped is still a point of debate.

Whose works do you have? I have James Redfield, to be honest I was disappointed when I found he was involved (even if it was only on the fringes).

Sarfatti has actually jokingly (?) put himself up for nomination in the Aviary as "Eagle".

I'd more say "Duck" as he seems to be have kept out of the main loop.

"Eagle" could possibly be Edgar Mitchell and there will be explanations along with this. Mitchell goes way back with Puthoff/Targ at SRI with some research done on Uri Geller.

Perhaps it could be extended at this stage there seems to be 6 main
organisations in the "core", once again with various sub organisations on the fringe. Yes the Esalen Institute could be included, as could INACS, The Rhine Institute, American Society of Psychical Research, International Remote Viewing Association, Journal of Scientific Exploration etc.....

At this stage I'm sticking to the main players within the network who seem to have a heavy leaning to Remote Viewing, consciousness studies and physics.

[NOTE: The list has been extended to 7 with the recent addition of The Majestic Team]


The criteria I have used seems to be at least five or six members of one group can be placed in one or more of the other organizations. Some are as high as ten.

How do you map a network? This is a problem I have encountered when trying to complete some sort of diagram. Unlike a heirachy which is resonably simple, you end up with a stack of little boxes with lines all over the place. The simplest way so far is with a six pointed star that will be extended over time.

I have a lot of information to collate and assemble in some sort of order. I can e-mail you a table of people off list, if you would like a clearer picture. It is pretty amazing when you see all the common names.

[The list has been collated in an edited HTML table below]

If you read the comments by Doc Hambone it makes light of Blackmore being implicated in the Aviary for merely interviewing Persinger who was suspected of being a member (even though he has never be named as such)! Hambone's observation mirrors the one you make above.

And this can be the trap, the olde hoary "guilt by association". However there is something going on, the recent thread on memes and disinformation/A influences may take me somewhere in regards to, "What are these people up to?"

No Problem. Thanks for the critical eye. It's my first attempt so go gently :-)

Here is the list compiled so far it is no means complete and will be updated over time. The main organisations are as follows Aviary, National Institute of Discovery Science (NIDS), Sarfatti's Stardrive Mailing List(SARF), Majestic Documents Team (MJ12), The Axiom Faculty (AXIOM) The Warrior's Path Group(WARR) and The Institute of Noetic Science (IONS) .

The list includes both past and present membership to the organisations. To make this list the criteria is that a person be involved with at least TWO organisations.

As one can see IONS only has FOUR people being present on other groups but as it was said to me when I showed someone this list, "Gee, Ed Mitchell gets around a bit doesn't he?" There is a larger list with pretty well ALL names including Ed's membership on the Club of Budapest, which is heading towards conspiratorial NWO material.

Joe Firmage also got around a bit until reality caught up with him, whether he is still involved in ANY of these groups is unknown. All I know is Jack Sarfatti is giving him a real barrelling wherever he can!

This series will be continued with commentary on each organisation and links to information on some of the players. Of course there are the links outside "The Star of Sorcerers" which have been mentioned in "Something Wicked This Way Comes" , the Disclosure Project being one example of this.
