I had a close encounter of a fifth kind.

I was astral projecting using the Xanth Phase Method. About 15 minutes in, I saw a static image of the Virgin Mary. Then behind Mary was this thing that looked like a grey alien. However, it had slight irises and not entirely black eyes. When the thing noticed that I could recognize it, it turned to me and gave a toothless smile. In that moment, I felt like a lab rat being observed by a scientist. I opened my eyes, and to my horror, its outline was on my bedroom wall. Like a black chalk outline. There was also a green circular haze.
I started having dreams of this thing. It was wearing the traditional blue outfit of the virgin mary in one dream and sitting on a throne.
One night, I woke up and saw three of them looking at me through my bedroom window.
Another night, I had a dream I was in this room with a platform in the middle. I asked them what they were and they replied "Asha Vhista Venu." I looked up Asha Vhista by googling it phonetically, and this was a Zoroastrian God of Cosmic truth. I've never heard of Zoroastrianism in my life.
