An instinctive recoil.A stillness that has been watching longer than we have been looking.Across abduction accounts, DMT spaces, ceremonial fires, and the oldest rock carvings humanity ever made; one figure keeps returning. Tall. Angular. Possessed of enormous reflective eyes and the particular patience of something that has never needed to hurry.Tonight, we continue our new series here at The Dreamland Motel.Taxonomies of Extraterrestrials. Our second journey takes us somewhere considerably stranger than the first.The Mantids.Along the way, we'll explore the earliest Mantid encounters in modern ufology, ancient mantis mythology from across the world, the remarkable prevalence of Mantid beings within psychedelic and altered states, their supervisory role within abduction literature, the environmental warnings they appear to carry, and the quiet unsettling possibility that whatever they are, the depth of their involvement with humanity is not ours to decide.Because the further intelligence appears from ourselves, the harder it becomes to recognise complexity within it.And the Mantid may be the ultimate test of that idea.Drop off your bags. Grab a drink.Try not to make the face.⸻🤖 Creative Process & AuthorshipThis work is written and narrated by a human creator. The core ideas, structure, and voice originate from the author.
