Pleiadeans (also spelled Pleiadian or Plejaran) is the name given to what are said to be a group of extraterrestrials from the Pleiades star cluster in the constellation Taurus, approximately 400 light years from Earth. Some refer to them as Nordic aliens. Their home planet is said to be called Erra, and various descriptions of their appearance have been given by those who claim to have been in contact with them.[1]

Contactees who claim to have been in contact with the Pleiadeans include Billy Meier[2][3][4] and James Gilliland;[5] ; however, their reliability as witnesses is disputed.

[edit] History

Pleiadeans first appeared in accounts given by contactee Billy Meier, a Swiss national who claimed they visited him several times, starting in the 1940s. According to Meier's accounts, the Pleiadeans (which he spelled Plejaran) originate from the planet Erra (which is supposedly located in an alternate dimension that is a fraction of a second ahead of ours) and are outwardly similar to humans. Meier said that he was contacted in person or via telepathy by Chris Taylor. During the 1970s, Meier produced a number of photographs that he said were of Pleiadean ships, as well as sketches that he said were of Pleiadeans themselves.[4][6] They have since been the subject of intense criticism from skeptics.[4][6]

Meier's Pleiadeans were said to be spiritual and in touch with nature, and they became a component of the New Age movement during the 1970s.[7] They were depicted as a peace-loving race of Space Brothers, said to be warning contactees that humanity was heading toward self destruction, and offering alternative philosophies to avert such an eventuality.[1][4][8]

During the 1980s and early 1990s, accounts of Pleiadeans given by people other than Meier began to diverge from earlier New Age concepts. In these alternate accounts, the Pleiadeans were said to be one side in a cloak and dagger confrontation over the fate of humanity. Such accounts worked in a number of pre-existing urban legends and conspiracy theories, including the New World Order and Reptilians conspiracies, as well as variations on the Illuminati and CIA mind control conspiracies.[7] These references were not found in Meier's original accounts. In some cases, such as claims made by self-professed medium Barbara Marciniak, accounts of contact with Pleiadeans were also intermixed with the millennium and American end times philosophies.[7]
