In the 2000's, Albert Rosales indicated in his catalogue of "humanoid encounters" that in Beauraing, Belgium, on December 21, 1932, in the evening, "Our Lady" appeared to five children: Fernande, Gilberte, Albert, Andrew and Gilbert. He says there were a total of 32 apparitions. With this one, an entity that identifed herself as "I am the Immaculate Virgin" appeared to the children, who saw a golden heart in the center of Mary's chest. On a later appearance she identified herself as "The Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven" and told them to always pray.

[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:
Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that in Beauraing, Belgium, on December 21, 1932, in the evening, "Our Lady appeared to five children at this location: Fernande, Gilberte, Albert, Andrew and Gilbert. There were a total of 32 apparitions. On the above date an entity that identify herself as "I am the Immaculate Virgin" appeared to the children. They saw a golden heart in the center of Mary's chest. On a later appearance she identified herself as" "The Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven" and told them to pray always."
Albert Rosales indicates that the source is "Catholic Apparitions of Mary".
This case, which inherently has nothing to do with UFOs, is part of a "series" of alleged apparitions, which I explain in the case file of the first of these so-called appearances.
Erich von Däniken, (www.daniken.com), Swiss citizen, born in 1935, became famous by publishing from 1968 on, books translated worldwide claiming the influence of extraterrestrial visitors on the first human civilizations - what is now called the "Ancient Astronaut Theory". He used ideas already published in France by author Robert Charroux. In his book "Erscheinungen", there is a list of "Blessed Virgin" appearances reports, briefly described and without any indication of sources, such as this one, which he attributed to extraterrestrials influencing humanity through such supernatural manifestations of religious appearance. Some ufologists share this point of view and therefore cited the reports of this list, without any other effort.
