The Serpent’s Reign: Recognizing the Reptilian Influence on Humanity
Why control structures exist, how they perpetuate, and where we can find the way out
At some point in our awakening journey, we inevitably wonder about the hidden forces orchestrating world events. Who truly sits atop the pyramid pulling the strings? Decades of research consistently points to shadowy cabals, elite families, and secret societies manipulating humanity from behind closed doors.
But is this hierarchy solely a human construct or did these structures of power and control originate elsewhere, from a different race of beings?
As more of our lost history comes to light, it is time to consider that our human history has never been exclusively human. Nor has it been entirely benevolent.
Admittedly, what follows is deeply unsettling and outright appalling. But it is part of the disclosure story and a driving justification for the secrecy.
This is a pivotal moment for humanity where we can blindly walk into the control structures’ final traps or choose our freedom and return to the heart. As the human awakening ramps up, the forces that have suppressed our consciousness and herded us into the control matrix are weakening and they know it. This is a big reason for the chaos around us.
It is also our opportunity to begin to birth a new world.
This new world can only arise when we are willing to confront what we have already created. We need to understand how we are still feeding the energies of manipulation, control, and fear that allow such things to continue, and make a conscious choice for something better.
What follows is a summary of information from a group of interdimensional beings referred to as The Collective who have, among others, served as my teachers since early 2019. This information and all quotes (in italics) are drawn from channeling sessions recorded throughout 2021 by Kelly Thebo, a trusted channel whose work has consistently demonstrated clarity, accuracy, and valuable insight. Though this type of information is difficult to validate through conventional means, it generally aligns with the findings of many independent researchers in this field, notably David Icke.
My intention for this piece is not to debate or prove the existence of Reptilians or provide a literature review, but rather to share wisdom from a source I’ve found reliable and resonant with my own understanding.
Content Advisory: Some readers may find certain sections triggering, such as the discussion of child exploitation. The information is presented for educational purposes to encourage critical thinking about the origin and nature of power structures.

Who Are the Reptilians?
The old tales across cultures of serpent gods, dragon kings, and even demons and Satan aren’t coincidence or metaphor—they’re ancestral memory and subconscious programming. They point to a profound truth that challenges our understanding of reality:
Humanity’s development has been profoundly influenced by non-human civilizations, including a race of beings we call the Reptilians (also related to who we call the Annunaki).
The Reptilians are an extremely ancient civilization that has been interacting with humanity since the beginning. While humans have been in their present form for approximately 200,000 years, the Reptilians have been operating across the cosmos for an immeasurably longer period, making them masters at what they do. We are one of many they have sought to exploit (and they are not alone in doing it).
Having conquered space travel, they have expanded their influence and exist across many star systems, including maintaining a network of allies, trade partners, and resource extraction industries. Thus, it is not so simple as to characterize them as Alpha-Draconian or as hailing from one place. Moreover, they are not all the same, nor do they all share identical beliefs and motivations.
Some Reptilians want to experience higher frequencies, while some do not. Some chose to help humanity, while others chose to manipulate and control.
While there are some benevolent Reptilians, on the whole, their civilization has chosen to remain at lower frequencies, believing it serves them. Unlike other civilizations that seek to evolve, the Reptilian intellect is based on fear and domination—that is the program they are running, so to speak.
Their majestic and intimidating physical appearance is deliberately chosen to scare us and serve this agenda. As noted by the Collective:
“Why do you think this race looks the way they look? For they are fierce. Why do you think they chose a form that would be unpleasant to you?...They could have chosen to look as the most benevolent, benign, loving beings ever created. That wouldn't have gotten the job done.”
Consistent with lore, Reptilians can shape-shift, meaning they can carry multiple DNA programs that allow them to change form at will. However, the idea that they have infiltrated our planet and are walking among us is mostly inaccurate. While the Collective confirmed that they have the ability to shape-shift, they clarified, “…the vast majority of them are not wanting to use it. They don't like you. They're not looking to be human.”
Their goal is not to blend in with us or to emerge from the shadows as our overlords. It is to use us for what we can give to them.
What Motivates the Reptilians?
The Reptilians’ primary agenda is to sustain themselves by harvesting the low-frequency energies of fear and suffering. Our fear is like food to them and so they seek to keep us in that state. The Collective said:
“They feed off of your fear. They understand that they're running a program. They understand that in order to maintain the program they wish to run, they need to function within the frequency of the program.”
This creates a dependency on sources of low-frequency energy, such that those lower frequencies need to be available to them in order to “do what they do, and to feel the way they feel, and to have a perception of themselves that they want to hang on to.” To accomplish that, they require (and desire) control over us. They sought to enslave us so that they could exploit our energy, labor, and resources.
This is done in myriad ways—blatant and covert. For example, consistent with research by Dr. Michael Salla, the Collective stated that, “There's a slave trade that has been afoot upon the earth plane for thousands and thousands and thousands of years, to serve these ones and others, to exploit the resources of space.” These metals and materials found in space, like in asteroids, are critical for a range of technologies and have value across civilizations, not just on Earth. Extracting these resources requires workers.
According to the Collective, some of our largest corporations operating in space already have alliances and trade agreements with other races. We are already mining space, with the public having funded the technology that allows these companies to do it, through black budget programs.
Perhaps the more pernicious and insidious slavery is the mind control we are subject to. Because the Reptilians require lower frequencies like fear and hate to keep their reality intact, the control structures they helped put in place—like government, the financial system, education, health care, media and information systems, and religion—are all designed to keep us afraid, fighting each other, and doubting our own worth, which keeps us on our knees.
While the Reptilians instigated much of the control, a select group of humans have carried the torch and are implementing their agenda on their behalf and for personal benefit.
According to the Collective, the number of humans involved now vastly outnumbers the Reptilians still meddling here. The Reptilians were effective at convincing certain humans that the fear and suffering of other humans makes them more powerful.
Bloodline Families as Human Accomplices
To maintain control on Earth, the Reptilians established bloodlines with greater Reptilian genetic material to occupy positions of power and provide continuity with Reptilian agendas. These were deliberate breeding programs spanning thousands of years:
“They have put together a network of ones here upon the earth plane whose program, whose DNA, whose hologram that they have brought in with them, has been altered with their knowledge and consent to help them to better interact with these ones.”
What we commonly understand as familial bonds is deliberately subverted to serve a multi-generational agenda:
“These ones have rituals where they impregnate one another, and those children are born and groomed to grow up to play a certain role. They may not even grow up within the families that have procreated them. That's why we say we use the word ‘family’ loosely.”
The scope of this breeding and grooming program is methodical, comprehensive, and invisible to the rest of us.
“There are ones serving in your countries at the top echelon of power…who do not have the backgrounds you think they have, who do not have the families you think they have.”
Abuse is typically part of this grooming, such that some children are deliberately traumatized, then later deployed as agents of the system that victimized them, where they become the perpetrators, thus continuing the cycle.
Part of what makes this possible is that empathy and emotion is essentially bred out of them. These bloodlines operate with fundamentally different beliefs and perspectives than average humans:
“They do not function like you. They do not think like you. They have been taught something else, and they have been taught to look at all of you as a means to an end.”
These humans may believe they are special and have been “chosen” to rule, thus justifying their domination as a divine right. Should they be tempted to go rogue, they are also controlled through “manipulation, blackmail, control and money, the illusion of power feeding into the lowest frequencies of human beings who have no self-control.” They are allowed to compete for power, cooperating when useful and killing each other off when being obstructed, like the Mafia.
What emerges is a system where children are bred into Reptilian bloodlines, traded, and groomed to perpetuate a control structure spanning millennia. We can look to the individuals, organizations, and lineages that sit atop the control structures and have amassed the most wealth and power (and perhaps who are most interested in space) for clues as to who has been bred with higher concentrations of Reptilian DNA and groomed for certain positions by those hidden behind the more public faces.
The Harvesting of Children
The Collective has taught that those in power understand energy and frequency much better than the rest of us. Those members of what is sometimes called the “dark occult” understand that belief, and specifically the frequency of that belief, is the true currency of this plane of existence. It is how we all create our reality and what determines outcomes.
A frequency goes out into the field looking for resonance. Where there is sufficient resonance, amplitude is born and something that is a match to that energy comes into materiality. The key is that you have to be genuinely holding a frequency that supports what you want and fully believe you are capable of creating it. This is why wishes and positive thinking alone do not manifest.
As explained by the Collective in the context of Reptilian control:
“When you believe something, and really believe it, it happens. These ones sought to enslave all of you, and doing whatever they need to do to convince themselves that they are powerful helps them to do it, for they absolutely believe it.”
They have deliberately withheld knowledge of how energy and creation works to keep a monopoly on power and keep us ignorant of how reality truly functions. The Collective said:
“What they're really trying to control is your consciousness…When you convince ones that they have no power, you have them right where you need them to be, to put off a frequency that feeds you and your belief that you are the powerful one.”
So what makes them feel most powerful? What has convinced the humans under their influence of the source of greater power?
The abuse, murder, and sacrifice of children.
These rituals relate to the adrenaline in the children’s blood and the powerful frequency emitted under trauma. Adrenochrome is sold as one of many “products” related to the harvesting of these children, which the Collective says is “becoming the number one industry on your planet.”
These are not children who go missing off the street, though some end up in these trafficking networks. There are millions of children who have been secretly and specifically bred to be used in this way. According to the Collective, there is nowhere in the world where this isn’t happening. And some of the very nonprofits and government agencies supposedly saving children are actually the ones helping transport and traffic them.
The top tier of humans initiate others into these practices. The Collective said:
“So you go to the ones below you…and you say to them, ‘oh, you need to participate in this if you want to join the club.’ And the first time someone participates, it may sicken them, and they will hate themselves and all of this, but they will come to enjoy it sooner or later, especially if it buys them the power and the influence that they were seeking in the first place. There are many reasons why human beings turn their eyes away from that which even you consider evil if it gives you what you want. There are very many of you who are willing to turn a blind eye.”
These perpetrators are not worried about “sin” or “morality” because they understand that what we consider wrong or evil can continue so long as there is a frequency present to support it. And, as previously noted, they are content to dwell at lower frequencies, making consciousness evolution and the higher experiences it engenders unimportant to them.
Part of their disregard for morality is because the Reptilians were involved in the creation of our religious texts. It is not even hidden, particularly in the Christian bible, where the serpent is portrayed as intelligent, cunning, and persuasive, challenging divine authority, and sowing doubt and strife. According to the myth, in eating the fruit of the tree in the Garden of Eden, humanity was tempted away from God and subject to original sin. How convenient.
Reptilians gave us the concepts of sin, morality, and judgment, not as a reflection of universal truth, but as a means to control us and teach us that our only salvation is through the worship of other beings seen as more powerful.
The story of Christ is one of blood sacrifice, specifically the sacrifice of the son. In a mocking irony, many worship the very symbolism of what these perpetrators are doing to the children. Many still fill the pews of Catholic churches knowing its role as a pedophile ring. Is it starting to make sense?!
Though allowed by free will, choosing lower frequencies has consequences. Those committing these heinous acts will receive the energetic reflection of their beliefs (which are ultimately also rooted in fear), though this may manifest on timelines and in ways not immediately apparent.
Though they have rigged the game in a sense, they have also limited how far they can go. The growing human awakening is proof that the more repressive and violent they become, the more ready humanity becomes to make a different choice. It is a self-defeating cycle destined to crash down upon them.
Yet, such atrocities will continue so long as we keep feeding them lower frequencies and consenting through our apathy, aversion to looking at what makes us uncomfortable, and the abdication of personal sovereignty. The responsibility lies not with the children but with the collective consciousness of humanity that hasn’t yet chosen to function at frequencies that would make such exploitation impossible.
The Collective has said: “You're cooperating willingly with every control structure on the planet, and it's time to stop.”
The Origins of Our Surrender
To understand how humanity came under Reptilian influence and ended up with today’s world, we must examine not only what happened but why. This story begins not with invasion, but with a conscious choice to experience limitation within a denser plane of existence.
To explain the current state, we need to understand the basics of who and what we are. While this could be the subject of a much longer article, suffice to say that we are all energy with consciousness first and foremost. As eternal creator beings, we seek our own expansion and the expansion of the whole through as vast a range of experiences as we can imagine. Free will is necessary, as consciousness could not be infinite if our choices were constrained.
Human is one such experience than can be chosen and explored, though it looked different in the beginning.
As the Collective explains, when first we came to this plane of existence, we were ethereal beings capable of creating our own physical bodies at will. We were androgynous because there was no need for procreation. At some point, we collectively decided to go deeper into materiality so that we could experience what it is like to both forget our eternal, divine nature and then eventually remember it. This required a DNA program that was conducive to this amnesia and the visceral perception of a physical experience.
Our decision to experience denser materiality—to feel limitation, separation, and the contrasts those states provide—necessitated a profound transformation:
“You can't go deeper into materiality and into lower frequencies and still maintain the ability to do everything you can do at higher frequency.”
As a result of not being able to manifest our own bodies in denser energies, we required assistance and put out the call. Many civilizations responded to this call, forming an alliance to help shape the genetic blueprint—the holographic programming—that would enable our material experience through the contribution and structuring of our DNA.
Among these seeder civilizations were the Reptilians. Some made this genetic contribution in love, generosity, and excitement. Some chose to ignore the original intent and manipulate us instead.
This opportunity for manipulation arose not through brute force but through resonance. No longer remembering our divine nature, we began to perceive scarcity, danger, and potential loss. These perceptions generated the frequency of fear, which led to our first attempts to control one another and jockey for power in a bid to feel safe and secure. We saw safety in people thinking and wanting the same things and behaving in the same ways. It seems we still do.
Our collective fear created a situation where we began to seek leadership, hierarchy, and external protection—the very conditions that enable control structures to flourish.
Our fear-based attempts at control created a vibrational beacon that drew in beings operating at similar frequencies:
“You can't have a frequency around your relationships with one another, that it does not become part of all-that-is and attract the attention of beings of like frequency. For this is how you create your world, is it not?”
It was this matching of frequencies and this implicit consent that created the opportunity for exploitation by Reptilians, who understood all that was transpiring and saw it as an opportunity to expand their own power through the asymmetry of knowledge. That universal knowledge is discernible through consciousness, but most humans are not curious, quiet, or receptive enough to tap into it.
Yes, we were manipulated, exploited, and tricked. But we were (and still are) complicit in our own oppression.
“Control structures cannot come in and just take you over. They have to have your frequential consent. You have to be dwelling at the same frequency as those wishing to control you, or it is impossible for you to even have an interaction.”
We perpetuate this dynamic whenever we choose fear, abdicate our power, seek external sources to save or control us, or try to control or manipulate one another. These are the frequencies that sustain both the Reptilians and the control structures they helped put in place.
This is why the 9th dimensional Pleiadian collective (the P’s) channeled by Wendy Kennedy has said we will look back on this time as the “frequency wars.” It is not kinetic struggle but growing resonance around higher (and more coherent and powerful) frequencies that will starve the control structures of the frequencies they need to survive.
The American Illusion of Freedom
One of the most difficult truths to accept is that so much of our history, even the founding of the United States, was a calculated move within a larger control agenda. We may think of the control structures as modern inventions but they have been in place for a very long time and are intricately related and mutually reinforcing, united by a belief in authority. There was never a golden age of true freedom or greatness from which we have fallen—only varying degrees of control masquerading as liberty.
“Your Cabal, as you call it, always takes the long view. They've been around for a very long time…Now, if you were living in the time when this country that you are living in was founded, and you had come from another nation where you did not have the level of freedom that you needed to do what you wanted to do, would it not serve you to found a country where you would have freedom and liberty abound? One can exercise freedom to do some pretty heinous things that perhaps would not be allowed within a more restrictive environment.”
The founding of America wasn’t primarily about liberating the common people but about creating a strategic power base that ultimately serves them:
“These ones, your Cabal...They want freedom and liberty to do whatever they want to all of you. And what they have done over time is they have granted this to you in order to energize you as a people, as generations of people, to live your best life...To pursue money, to pursue happiness, to pursue liberty, to build businesses, to found a government, and especially to create a military.”
They have convinced most people that a happy life is one spent working for others in order to accumulate money, buy all the things we have been programmed to want, and appear normal and acceptable to the rest of the herd. They are fine with us making money because it generates profits for them and funds the war machine.
If life in such a construct was rooted in real happiness and freedom, why is depression, mental illness, and suicide increasing? Why are Americans, who work more hours in a year compared to other countries, among the least healthy and happy?
Our situation is a natural result of an economic system designed for growth, profit, and control that rewards people for productivity and conformity. It thrives when people buy into the narrative that happiness is earned through work and consumption more than meaning or purpose.
“The ones who came to found this country had an agenda. They are not your heroes. They are human beings who made decisions according to what they wanted for self, some of which served you and some of which didn't.”
According to the Collective, America never truly broke away from British rule:
“Supposedly you threw off the shackles of the other country…You're still ruled by the other country. That is the truth, and you're going to find it out. It has always been so.”
The pattern of creating illusions of freedom while tightening control has continued throughout American history up to the present day, often through manufactured crises:
“And they extend the freedom to you to get the very best out of you, and then they jerk your chain. And the way that they do that is to create an emergency, a disaster, a war, a pandemic, terrorism, all kinds of things...For every time that they have created an emergency, you have been willing to give up your freedoms in exchange for your safety, not understanding that the ones you should be fearing are the ones who are taking your freedoms.”
In this country, we are like free-range chickens, having the illusion of freedom within strictly defined bounds.
Those in power are content to let us roam and feel like we are directing our lives, so long as we produce for the harvest. Just look at where the money flows in this country. Look at what happens to those who push against the edges of the fence.
It is time to pull the wool from our eyes and see what is really happening, starting with questioning all that we have been told is true.
“You need to stop…believing your fables about your leaders so that you can feel better about being led.”
“What matters is that you need to be free.”
The Way Out
Most people want greater peace, love, and equality on the planet. They yearn for a life that feels more fulfilling and uplifting. But their imagination is limited to the confines of the current control systems. They want a kinder government with more compassionate leaders. They want a system of exchange that feels fairer and based on real value. They want schools where children are taught practical life skills and learn to work cooperatively with one another.
These are valid stepping stones on the path to progress. But part of my purpose in sharing my writing, and this article in particular, is to promote the possibility of real transformation.
It is to excite a desire for the genuine liberation of the human race from all systems of control, from all influences of manipulation, from all beliefs that render us powerless and unworthy.
This can only happen through choice. Specifically, the solutions lie in choosing higher frequencies. Making that choice necessitates abandoning our fears and illusions and refusing the perceived safety of those whose primary agenda is to keep us afraid and under their thumbs.
This is why I always come back to consciousness and the higher, broader perspective it affords. It is why I am constantly speaking of the physics of existence because therein lies the truth that all control and all external authority is an illusion. We are ultimately responsible for the conditions of our world—past, present, and future—through the frequency we pulse out. If we don’t like what comes our way, we need to shift our energy to something higher.
What frequency will you amplify?
Do you want to feed the Reptilians? Do you want to prop up the control structures with your fear, anger, hatred, and animosity toward one another? Are you willing to turn a blind eye to the plight of this planet’s children so that you stay comfortable and ignorant?
Or are you willing to apply your consciousness to the seeing of truth? Are you willing to connect with the deeper knowing that exists within all of us that we are eternal, limitless, and powerful creators within a plane of existence that we chose for ourselves so that we may grow and expand?
Physics are on our side. Higher frequencies, like love, joy, and compassion, are more powerful. And given that there are vastly more of us than there are of them, it does not require a majority to start to shift our reality.
But it does require courage to step into the unknown of a new world for which there is no blueprint.
It takes imagination—perhaps now the most sacred of rebellions. We have been living under control structures for so long that so many cannot even conceive of a world without them. But we don’t have to have it all figured out.
We can imagine what such a world would feel like and birth that in our lives. Perhaps we envision children laughing as they run through a meadow, people coming together in community and sharing gifts, the earth radiant and pollution-free. In that energy, we become resonant with solutions, innovations, and new ways of thinking that will guide us into the future.
We also become resonant with assistance from civilizations who want the best for us.
The Collective has said that the Reptilians are running out of places to dwell. This demise, and the misery that accompanies it, is their consequence for what they have done. The divine nature of all beings to be free cannot be bred out or forever suppressed. What some call “natural law” is the inviolable movement toward harmony, order, and coherence, which is what creates stability in all of existence, allowing for expansion. That we have chaos in our world is an indication of the instability of lower frequencies that are in the process of falling away.
It is time now to take responsibility for our world. It is time to face the shock and dismay of what we have allowed to flourish. It is time to make different choices in the direction of our liberation—not just from the Reptilians and their human and non-human allies, but from the shadows placed upon our own hearts.
It is time to bring the light so that all is brought to light.
“You have had some up on the earth plane who have sought to create a difference in their world without violence, who sought peace with their behavior and their frequency and a song in their heart, who decide to live the lives the way they want, and to carry that frequency into the earth plane, waiting for others to resonate with it.”
“The fifth dimension has to be created by all of you. You are actively in these moments, creating a new civilization with your frequency. And whether or not you're curious about what's going on in the third dimension will have very much to do with what the fifth dimension ends up looking like.”

Regarding traumatizing children who become the oppressors, I can't help but think of Anderson Cooper.
The term "productive member of society" always bugged me. The educational system is designed to crank out "productive members of society", and parents generally think that if their children grow up to be "productive members of society", those children will have fulfilled their purpose in life. But the true purpose of anyone is self-actualization - just being what it is you were meant to be - a work of art as it were, not a productive cog in an interminable, circular machine. Perhaps a sand mandala which is destroyed even more quickly than it was created.
You have touched the tip of a very deep iceberg with this essay.
Thank you for approaching it with great sensitivity to the reader.
Now, imagine how many ET/NHI beings there are, with each having some sort of agenda when it comes to humanity. This may not be the only nefarious one. And, as you mention, all of a kind cannot be painted with the same brush. And thus, the picture becomes very complex.
That which we go with grace comes to mind.
Like you often write about, an answer, maybe ‘the’ answer is raising our frequencies. Defence in this era will look like something very different from previous eras. ✌️❣️
