In my last article, I explored the collective shift in consciousness and how cosmic, cultural, and technological alignments are creating an unprecedented opportunity for humanity to step into a higher state of awareness. Today, I want to delve into one of the most groundbreaking intersections of these shifts: the revelations shared by Jake Barber in his interview with Ross Coulthart.
The original interview aired on NewsNation's special, Hunting UFOs: The Crash Retrieval Whistleblower, on Saturday, January 18, 2025. There were a few groundbreaking moments, but it left a lot of us wanting more. Neither Barber nor Coulthart were satisfied with the way the producers handled the edit, which they felt undercut the depth of the interview. As a response, yesterday, January 24, 2025, they released a 2-hour 45-minute completely unedited version to the public, offering full transparency and unfiltered context to their groundbreaking discussion. I watched it so you don’t have to, but I do recommend that you watch the whole thing for yourself if it piques your interest.
Barber, a whistleblower with experience in covert military and intelligence operations, shared details that touch not just on the physical recovery of UAPs but on the deep connection between consciousness and advanced technology. To understand the full implications of his testimony, I want to first attempt to legitimize both Barber and Coulthart, then dive into the profound topics they explored, and finally, connect these revelations to Hermetic philosophy as a lens for navigating the larger shift humanity is experiencing.
Legitimizing the Voices
Jake Barber: The Whistleblower
Barber served in the U.S. Air Force and later worked in intelligence operations, gaining firsthand exposure to classified technologies and missions. With NATO top-secret clearance and experience in red-team operations, Barber’s background establishes him as someone deeply embedded in the machinery of secrecy. However, his decision to come forward was motivated by a sense of duty to inform the public about suppressed knowledge that has implications for all of humanity.
Barber’s testimony is unique in its scope. Beyond describing UAP recoveries, he introduced the concept of psionics: the use of heightened consciousness and extrasensory perception to interact with advanced, non-human technologies. While his revelations are constrained by the need for clearance reviews, they provide an affirming glimpse into the potential of human consciousness as a tool for interfacing with a multidimensional cosmos.
Barber is also leading a private initiative known as the Skywatcher program. This initiative aims to explore UAP phenomena and consciousness transparently and ethically, replicating discoveries previously suppressed by public entities. Backed by venture capital and in collaboration with government agencies, the program integrates individuals with psionic (ESP) abilities. During their first outing, they reportedly summoned a "white egg" UAP in broad daylight, successfully documenting the event. The program’s blend of spiritual and scientific exploration makes it a fascinating development. Regardless of what you think of the military industrial complex, venture capital, and the US government, I have to admit this is pretty rad.
Ross Coulthart: The Journalist
Ross Coulthart, an award-winning investigative journalist, has become a trusted voice in UAP discourse. With a career spanning decades and a reputation for meticulous research, Coulthart’s interviews and investigations have brought credibility to topics often relegated to the fringes. His work bridges the gap between whistleblowers like Barber and a public increasingly curious about the implications of UAP disclosures, especially as more of us are having personal encounters or at least watching videos of others’ encounters through our algorithms. Coulthart’s platform ensures that these revelations are not dismissed but explored with the seriousness they demand.
Key Revelations from Barber’s Interview
Psionics
Barber revealed that the military has developed programs to train individuals in psionics—the use of consciousness to engage with advanced technology. These psionics operators are trained in telepathy, intuition, and mental focus, enabling them to:
“Summon” UAPs through conscious intention.
Communicate telepathically with non-human intelligences.
Pilot UAPs by syncing their consciousness with the craft itself.
The implications are staggering: UAPs appear to function as extensions of consciousness, blurring the line between technology and biology. This suggests that advanced civilizations might prioritize the evolution of consciousness alongside technological innovation.
Emotional Resonance and Spiritual Connection
One of Barber’s most profound accounts involved a pearlescent "egg-shaped" craft that emitted no thermal signature and defied known physics. During its recovery, Barber experienced an overwhelming sense of love, beauty, and maternal feminine energy—as if the craft itself was communicating through emotion. This resonance transformed Barber’s understanding of his role in these operations, awakening him to the possibility that these technologies are designed to harmonize with consciousness. When Coulthart asked him if he reported this connection to his team back at base, Barber replied, "The last thing I'm going to do is go back and tell my team that I almost had to pop the load off because I was connected with a goddess that was making me cry."
"This is one of the most profound experiences I've ever had in my life... As I get closer to this pick site, I start feeling odd. I start feeling extremely emotional. And the closer I get, the more the emotion starts to overwhelm me. [...] I felt a sense of my mother. I don't know how else to explain it. I feel this intense hybrid of sadness and happiness and beauty and song. [...] I felt like something connected with me. I felt like something had tuned in to me and my soul and was providing me some sense of guidance on what to do and how profound what I was doing was. And whatever that force was since that night, it has stayed with me. And as crazy as this sounds, it's what's guiding me now. And it's what's providing protection for me. It's changed my life."
Cultural Recruitment and Indigenous Wisdom
Barber also disclosed that individuals from Indigenous and underrepresented communities are often recruited for psionic programs due to their natural connection to spiritual practices and heightened intuitive abilities. He implied they seemed to take pride in becoming part of the psionics teams. Ancient future.
The Esalen Institute Event
Adding a fascinating layer to the interview, a week prior to its airing, Barber and Coulthart were reportedly present at a gathering at the Esalen Institute. his renowned center for exploring human potential and consciousness studies—also famous for its (clothing optional) hot springs with stunning ocean views—hosted an event that brought together an extraordinary mix of participants, including billionaires, frontier scientists, mystics, and even children with psychic abilities, proving Esalen’s reputation as a hub for both intellect and eccentricity. They both seemed visibly stunned, hopelessly optimistic, and overall ecstatic about what they described.
Among the most mind-blowing demonstrations were children exhibiting telekinesis and advanced psychic perception, providing tangible evidence of human potential. Additionally, psionic team members successfully summoned UAPs, which were witnessed by those in attendance, including Coulthart. This convergence of scientific, spiritual, and experiential exploration was described as both spiritual and historic, offering a glimpse into the future of how humanity might engage with non-human intelligence and advanced phenomena.
If someone from Skywatcher’s is reading this, I would love an invite to the next one!
The Suppression of Zero-Point Energy
Jake Barber dropped a bombshell: zero-point energy is real. "I’ve seen it," he said. Let that sink in for a second. This isn’t just free energy—it’s the kind of discovery that could flip the scarcity paradigm on its head, obliterate the fossil fuel industry, and make Elon’s Mars colony look quaint by comparison. Naturally, this technology is locked away tighter than the codes to get into a billionaire’s doomsday bunker, because nothing says “progress” like suppressing innovations that could save the planet.
Barber’s silence on the deeper details about ZPE speaks volumes about the institutional forces keeping these breakthroughs under wraps. The same forces that thrive on oil wars and debt-based economies aren’t about to throw a liberation party. And let’s face it, if you were sitting on tech that could singlehandedly dismantle your trillion-dollar empire, you’d probably keep quiet too.
But let’s zoom out and look at what zero-point energy really means—and why its release would rattle the foundations of society in ways both awe-inspiring and, frankly, hilarious.
What Is Zero-Point Energy and Why Does it Matter?
The Concept:
Zero-point energy (ZPE) is essentially the cosmic freebie we didn’t know we needed. It’s the energy that exists in the vacuum of space, even when everything else is at absolute zero temperature. Think of it as the universe’s version of a backup generator that’s always on. If humanity could tap into this energy, we’d have an unlimited, clean, and decentralized power source. Forget the solar panels; we’re talking about quantum-level juicing.
The Potential:
Unlimited Power: ZPE could provide clean energy without emissions or the need to dig up half the planet.
Technological Revolution: Advanced propulsion systems powered by ZPE could make interstellar travel possible, maybe.
Societal Transformation: By eliminating scarcity, ZPE would pull the rug out from under every system built on resource competition. Imagine world peace fueled by cosmic energy, and now try not to laugh at how absurdly overdue it feels. You’ve had the dream I’m certain.
Institutional Barriers to Zero-Point Energy
Barber’s military background sheds light on why this tech is still a state secret. Spoiler: it’s not because we’re “not ready,” as they’d have you believe—it’s because the powers that be are.
Threat to the Military-Industrial Complex:
The military-industrial complex is deeply tied to fossil fuels and traditional energy industries. If ZPE became mainstream, the oil barons and arms dealers might have to, I don’t know, learn to code? Also, ZPE-powered propulsion would turn hypersonic jets into relics overnight. The U.S. military losing its technological edge? That’s a no-go.
Corporate and Economic Interests:
Let’s not forget the fossil fuel industry, which has spent the last century perfecting the art of making us dependent on a finite resource they control. ZPE would annihilate that model, leaving a trail of lobbyists crying into their carbon offsets. And let’s be honest: we’ve all seen how billionaires handle losing their monopolies—they don’t.
Control and Secrecy:
As Barber alluded, the knowledge around ZPE is compartmentalized to the point where only a select few even know it exists. This isn’t just about secrecy—it’s about control. As long as ZPE remains locked up, the gatekeepers of power get to keep calling the shots.
Psychological and Cultural Barriers
The obstacles aren’t just external. Barber, like many in the military, has been steeped in a mindset that views disruptive technologies as existential threats. The idea of abundance must feel like a cruel joke to someone trained to see the world as a chessboard of finite resources.
Indoctrination into Patriotism:
Barber’s experience in the military likely taught him that “national security” trumps all. ZPE, with its potential to level the global playing field, probably looks like a destabilizing nightmare from that perspective. It’s easier to think of it as a Pandora’s box than as humanity’s golden ticket.
Fear of Chaos:
Even well-meaning insiders might balk at the thought of unleashing ZPE, worrying that it could destabilize economies and governments worldwide. Sure, we might stumble through a rough transition, but when hasn’t humanity done its best work under pressure?
The Transformative Potential of ZPE
Let’s assume we pull it off—ZPE gets released, and humanity doesn’t immediately implode. The implications would be staggering, to say the least:
Global Equality: With decentralized energy production, power monopolies dissolve. Communities could generate their own energy, freeing themselves from corporate grids.
Technological Evolution: Interstellar travel, advanced robotics, quantum computing—ZPE wouldn’t just unlock doors; it would bulldoze the walls of possibility.
Societal Focus Shift: Without resource competition, society could finally redirect its focus to education, healthcare, and most importantly spiritual evolution. Telepathic future anyone?
How ZPE Challenges the Existing Power Paradigm
If ZPE sees the light of day, the current power structures would collapse faster than a house of cards in the high desert wind.
Economic Collapse and Rebirth: Entire industries—fossil fuels, nuclear energy, and defense—would evaporate overnight. While that might sound apocalyptic, it’s also an opportunity to rebuild an economy rooted in sustainability and abundance.
Governance Overhaul: Without resource control, governments would need to figure out how to, well, govern. Collaboration and stewardship might replace the current “control everything” approach. Emphasis on might.
Why Disclosure Is Inevitable
History suggests that the truth, no matter how suppressed, has a way of surfacing. Just ask Galileo.
Rhythms of Revelation: Hermetic principles teach us that cycles govern all things. The same forces that suppressed ZPE will eventually catalyze its release. The pendulum swings, folks.
Grassroots Movements: With the rise of whistleblowers, citizen science, and independent researchers, the democratization of knowledge is inevitable. As Barber himself hinted, we don’t need permission to make these secrets obsolete.
Collective Readiness: Humanity is slowly waking up to its interconnected nature. As we align with abundance, the systems rooted in fear and scarcity will crumble under their own weight.
A Call to Action: Preparing for the ZPE Paradigm
If we want to be ready for ZPE, we need to get our act together:
Expand Awareness: Learn about ZPE and the structures resisting its release. Knowledge is power.
Reimagine Society: Start thinking about how a post-scarcity world would function. Spoiler: it’s not capitalism as we know it.
Advocate for Transparency: Support those pushing for disclosure and challenge systems of secrecy.
Align with Consciousness: ZPE isn’t just about tech—it’s about resonance. The more we align with abundance in our own lives, the closer we get to a reality where ZPE becomes possible.
I don’t think ZPE is a pipe dream in any sense. I think it’s inevitable. In fact, I had a whole vision for two nights in a row in an ayahuasca ceremony the eve of Trump’s first presidential election. It involved three things, Trump, interdimensional beings, and Zero Point Energy. It didn’t make a whole lot of sense in 2016… but in 2025, oh my god! I wrote a song about it that was released in 2018 called All You Ever Wanted. Have a listen.
Connecting Barber’s Testimony to Hermeticism
To fully grasp the significance of Barber’s revelations, I want to turn to Hermetic philosophy, which provides a sound ancestral framework for understanding the interplay of consciousness, technology, and universal law.
The Principle of Mentalism (“The All is Mind”)
Barber’s description of psionics—and the broader implications of ZPE—align perfectly with this Hermetic principle. If the universe operates as a mental construct, then consciousness is the fundamental building block of reality, shaping the very fabric of existence. ZPE, as a limitless energy source, reflects this foundational truth: abundance stems from alignment with the mind of the cosmos. The ability to “summon” and interact with UAPs using focused thought suggests that advanced civilizations—or beings operating on higher densities—have mastered this principle, leveraging mind as the ultimate medium for creation and communication. As Dr. Stephen Greer aptly put it: what’s faster than the speed of light? The speed of thought.
The Principle of Correspondence (“As above, so below”)
The interconnected nature of consciousness, ZPE, and advanced technology mirrors the Hermetic principle of correspondence. The microcosm of human innovation and discovery reflects the macrocosm of universal abundance. Whether we’re syncing consciousness with UAPs or reimagining society with post-scarcity frameworks, the parallels between human potential and cosmic design are undeniable, enabling a seamless interface between beings and the field of universal intelligence.
The Principle of Vibration (“Nothing rests; everything moves”)
Barber’s emotional resonance with the craft—and the very concept of ZPE—highlights the vibrational nature of existence. Consciousness itself vibrates at frequencies that, when aligned, unlock extraordinary potential. This principle suggests that our state of being acts as a tuning fork, resonating with and shaping the reality we experience. Whether establishing harmony with UAPs or accessing the infinite energy of the vacuum, the vibrational alignment bridges the gap between the seen and unseen. In essence, ZPE and psionics reveal that reality is less about static objects and more about dynamic, harmonized frequencies—a dance of energy and intention.
The Principle of Polarity (“Everything has its opposite”)
The suppression of zero-point energy represents the shadow side of technological advancement, driven by fear and control. Yet Hermetic philosophy reminds us that light and shadow are interconnected; the very forces that suppress truth also catalyze its eventual revelation.
The Principle of Rhythm (“Everything flows, out and in”)
Barber’s testimony marks a turning point in the rhythm of human evolution. The pendulum is swinging toward transparency and empowerment, as suppressed knowledge begins to resurface.
A Hermetic Vision for the Future
Barber’s experiences offer a glimpse into a future where humanity embraces its latent psionic potential and harmonizes with universal consciousness. By integrating Hermetic principles, we can envision a world where:
Zero-point energy liberates humanity from scarcity.
Psionics or ESP (extra-sensory perception) bridge the gap between science and spirituality.
Society reorganizes itself around principles of unity, abundance, and mutual respect.
It seems to me that this vision isn’t utopian fantasy but a natural and logical progression of the awakening already underway. As suppressed truths come to light, we are being called to step into our roles as co-creators of a new paradigm. Barber’s testimony is more than a revelation; it’s an invitation to align with the deeper truths that have always been available to us, waiting for the right moment to emerge.
Next Step: Phase Sync
If you’re feeling the pull to not just understand these shifts but to actively participate in them, that’s not a coincidence. Perhaps it’s that spirit-guide tap on the shoulder—a gentle but persistent nudge—inviting you to shift from passive observation to active co-creation, aligning your own transformation with the collective awakening. This is exactly why I created Phase Sync—a 13-week program designed to guide you into direct experience, alignment, and comprehension of the architecture of reality. It’s not about taking my word for it or anyone else’s. It’s about testing these principles yourself, stepping into coherence with the quantum field, and rewriting the code of your life in a way that ripples out into the collective. The shifts are happening whether we like it or not—Phase Sync is about ensuring we meet them with clarity, creativity, and purpose. It starts March 17th, and I would love to see you there. Let’s align, evolve, and step fully into this next chapter together. You can find all the details at roninkoshi.com/phasesynclanding. Bless!
Cool stuff man. I wrote a piece recently that dipped into the Hermetic Principles. I think a lot of that is quite applicable today. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
