challenge and letting nothing slide. In this regard, this is the one characteristic of the giant hominoids who inhabit the 12th Planet that is most like our ancient selves. The remnants of this culture can be seen within us, as even today we do not, as you say, roll over easy. We defend ourselves, some would say vigorously. Our culture has moved over its
life, steadfastly in the direction of supporting scientific research, as this is a pastime we all enjoy immensely. Some cultures, as the Pleiadeans, have always placed a strong value on social functions, giving them priority over almost all activities. As this is something they enjoy immensely this has, if anything, grown in importance for them as time went on. Consequently, the Pleiadeans frequently act as greeters for new galactic citizens, and are here on Earth acting in this capacity now.

ZetaTalk: Cultured Aliens
Mail this Pageto a Friend.
What humans variously describe as culture covers a magnitude of aspects - dress, posture, language, knowledge of
significant or trivial details, and awareness of color and sound. In general, culture in a human society is deemed to be the summation of tradition, and in particular the traditions of the idle and privileged upper classes who have time to spend on such matters. Do alien cultures reveal what the alien group holds dear - their intellectual pursuits, their regard for one another, or their escape mechanisms? Most certainly, just as human cultures are revealing.
Rigid human societies reflect the rigidities in their culture, which limit innovative art or music and prize regimented expression in the traditional mode. Primitive human societies reflect their mean and impoverished existence by a
simplistic culture, with overtones of grief and despondency in their music and the distraction of bright colors in their artwork. Where daring and physical skill are valued the culture will reflect this by ritualizing feats, such as the rodeos in the American west. Cultures also reflect a society's fears, where the stories told again and again are doing far more than simply entertaining, they are acting as a catharsis. Threats in the form of large carnivores or violent weather are overcome, but sometimes at the self-sacrifice of a hero. Here the catharsis includes relief at the outcome but also a sense of grief, allowing the audience a safety valve for personal grief. Thus in human societies the culture may include many such opportunities, the choice of entertainment driven by inexpressible emotions which need an outlet.
Alien cultures, likewise, reflect their social order and physical environment. An intelligent life form on a water planet may find a water dance that incorporates motions reminiscent of self defense maneuvers during strong tides, finding a catharsis in reliving and resolving the anxieties this situation presents for them. An intelligent life form that can take flight and is devastated when unable to do so may incorporate entertainment that includes a flightless member being
protected or sheltered in some manner by the others in the flock. Is this then entertainment, or a reflection of the life circumstances? Hominoid cultures regularly reflect the various emotions engendered by their dexterous ability to
manipulate their circumstances. Mystery novels replete with motives and clues, all possible for hominoids who can
manipulate their environments in intricate and varied ways. Likewise, all hominoid cultures reflect their highly
interactive social structure, with the many opportunities to rescue and/or defend or, alternatively, desert and/or savage, their fellows.
Are the alien visitors to Earth cultured? Most certainly, as where there is intelligent life circumstances will be reflected in a culture.

ZetaTalk: Alien Interactions

With those groups who operate in the Service-to-Others orientation we, the Zetas, are in close, daily, if not momentary coordination. The nature of our interaction is primarily coordination. We don't typically work hand-in- hand, and the reason for that is that this does not make the best use of either our skills or our organizations. Recall that Service-to-Others groups become very tightly interwoven mentally, with much telepathic communication. An elite corps in the
military trains and becomes proficient in part because they know each other and their normal operating procedure so
well. Just so, groups operating in the Service-to-Others find this has happened to them, also. We are able to anticipate what the others in the group are going to need, and be there for them even before they express this need. This would not happen as readily with strangers. Therefore, we are all most efficient if we work in our familiar groups. There is much work to be done, and as the saying goes, we could clone ourselves. Of course, we

ZetaTalk: Social Structure

In any group in the Service-to-Other orientation there are leaders and followers, as for a great number of reasons no two entities are evenly balanced in their capabilities at any given point in time. One may be a leader in one instance, yet a follower in another. One may appear to be a follower but by their counsel and support in fact be quietly leading.
All these scenarios are familiar to humans, who know that titles can be misleading and relationships complex. But
humans are accustomed to these subtleties taking second place to titles, as without titles and the responsibilities and authority that accompany titles, how are strangers to know how to relate? Given an everyday situation, where a water main has burst, how to handle this unless one can call the city water department and, if need be, demand to speak to the superintendent. In Service-to-Other groups in 4th Density or above, telepathy or soul-to-soul communication
replaces what humans see as
In Service-to-Other groups, where an entity has volunteered and others have pledged their support,
