A False St. Michael Case Study

Published on January 20, 2025 by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

In a previous article, we looked at how the occult world reveres a false ‘St. Michael’, ascribing powers and roles to him which are at odds with (Catholic) reality. This article looks at how devotion to the false ‘St. Michael’ may have been the basis of a tragic series of events which took place in Australia several years ago. The incident has the hallmarks of a government-created psychological operation, possibly including mind-control and which was crowned by a dedication to what was undoubtedly the occult ‘St. Michael.’

The Wieambilla Saga

In December, 2022, at the height of the coronavirus hysteria, a deadly siege took place in country Queensland. This event was unusual for Australia as it ended with the deaths of six people: three property-owners, branded as the attackers; their neighbour; and two young police officers. As details emerged in the mainstream media, the property-owners were revealed to be ‘anti-vax conspiracy theorists’ who had meticulously planned the police officers’ execution.

Four police officers had gone the remote property in Wieambilla, west of Brisbane, to search for a certain Nathaniel Train, who had been reported as missing in New South Wales several months prior to the shooting.

When the police arrived at the property, they were ambushed by three civilians and sprayed with gunfire; two officers died almost immediately and a neighbour who had come to investigate a burning vehicle was also shot dead. One police officer was wounded, and the fourth, a woman, escaped and raised the alarm.

This was followed by a six-hour siege during which sixteen special operations police made numerous attempts to neutralise the trio. Late that night, they succeeded in killing the three civilians.

The slain attackers were two brothers as well as the wife of one brother who had previously been married to the other. The three were said to have been influenced by an American You-tuber named Donald Day who was later arrested. Day was known for his survivalist mentality and expectation of an imminent Second Coming. The Trains fully expected that they could at any time be raided by police and have to defend their property. They nicknamed their front gate as the “Rubicon” and Nathaniel Train had indicated he expected to die from “suicide by police.”

Police incompetence

It was later revealed that Nathaniel Train had made multiple threats via email of violence against any police who presented at the property and that there was a warrant out for his arrest on firearm charges. Yet despite this, the New South Wales police failed to alert their Queensland counterparts of the potential danger posed by the Trains.

For their part, Queensland police failed to connect an arms cache perviously found in a nearby creek with the Trains. The Superiors also sent inexperienced officers, like lambs to the slaughter, to conduct a welfare check which ended in their deaths.

Mind Control?

As the public learns more and more about the prevalence of government-instigated mind-control, it is becoming increasingly reasonable to suspect that this is a factor in high-profile events like the Wieambilla massacre. Some of the clues to look in a case of mind-control for include: accusations of mental illness; indications of sexual and other abuse; indications of programming and ‘handlers’; changes in personality. The Wieambilla event meets those criteria.

An expert witness at the inquest, forensic psychiatrist Andrew Aboud, claimed that the trio suffered from a rare psychiatric disorder known as ‘shared delusions’ and that they may not be morally culpable for their actions.

The coroner reported on a conversation between the three, which had apparently been recorded in a hospital, in which Nathaniel said “he had dreams about fighting police and shooting them to get through COVID-19 border closures.” Putting aside the question of how such a recording was made, and by whom, it is possible that what Nathaniel believed to be a dream was a suggestion or order with which he had been programmed.

It must also be admitted that what we think about during the daytime often recurs in our dreams, and the Trains obviously spent a great deal of time considering and planning for such a situation.

An accusation of sexual abuse by Nathaniel Train against his parents was made not long before the massacre. This accusation was revealed by a childhood friend of Nathaniel’s, who happened to be a researcher for a media outlet, some six months after the killings. This source also claimed that Nathaniel’s actions did not fit with his personality.

The following detail, revealed at the inquest, gives further credence to the influence of mind-control, suggesting that a phone may have been used as a trigger or to give instructions and that the Trains in some way rebelled against their handlers.

On top of the gate that the four junior police jumped over, 120 metres away from the spot where they were fired at by the hidden shooters, one of the Trains had glued a mug, a photo provided to the inquest showed. It was emblazoned with the phrase: “Have a nice day”. Inside the mug was a smashed iPhone with a single word scrawled across it in scratchy handwriting: “FUCKWITS”.

If this was not related to any form of mind-control, then what could it mean? It seems like a very deliberate action without an obvious meaning.

Then there is the footage from the slain female police officer, said to have been taken just before she was killed by Nathaniel Train. Some say Train looks as though he is enjoying the prospect of killing; to me, it looks as though his face shows concern.

“Conspiracy Theorists”

Nathaniel Train had been a public school principal. who had left his job over ‘concerns over the school’s education policy’. He had apparently suffered a heart attack while working at the school and while it isn’t clear if he actually took the COVID vaccine, part of his grievance seems to have been related to the school’s mandatory vax policy.

After the inquest, in August 2024, the media began to describe the Trains as religious extremists, and conspiracy theorists who rejected the COVID vaccine. One report mentions:

“…. anti-vaccine and anti-lockdown narratives, climate engineering and Sovereign Citizen conspiracies, conspiracies about microchips, the New World Order and Great Reset, the Illuminati, antisemitic conspiracy theories and more. Gun control conspiracy theories appear to feature heavily, as will be discussed further below. It does not appear that he was a believer in QAnon, however, referring to it as a ‘psyop’ in a post in January 2021.”

Institute for Strategic Dialogue website

Several media reports mentioned that the Trains’ worldview included being ‘caught in a battle between good and evil’, and as pointed out in the article on the fake St. Michael, occultists ascribe a vital role to their false angel in this cosmic battle:

“The pavement (of the Lodge), alternatively black and white, symbolizes the Good and Evil principles of the Egyptian and Persian creeds. It is the warfare between Michael and Satan, Light and Darkness, Freedom and Despotism, Religious Liberty and the Arbitrary Dogmas of a Church that thinks for its votaries and whose Pontiff claims to be infallible.”

Albert Pike

Occult References

A careful reading of media reports gleans several occult references; for example, the ABC honed in on this New Age reference to the ‘blue angel.’ According to this source, the coloured light ray which New Agers associate with the angel St. Michael is blue.

A floral tribute to the dead police officers, describing them as ‘blue angels.’

Another report stated that the police now regard the shooting scene as ‘sacred ground’ and that the Police Union was considering buying the property. This is an extraordinary statement, as no such comment was made when other officers – some 800 in Australia’s history – were killed in the line of duty.

Bodycam footage from the police yielded some images of interest to our study. One example is this tattoo of planets on a police officer’s arm.

Some occult systems assign one of the seven Archangels to each planet (the ancients believed seven planets revolved around the earth, including the sun and moon. ‘St. Michael’s’ planets are the sun and Mars.)

The date of the massacre was December 12, 2022; that is 12/12/2022. The number 12 is sacred in many occult systems, including astrology and alchemy, while the number 2 represents the idea of duality so prevalent in the occult. Note also that the digits themselves add up to 12: 1+2+1+2+2+0+2+2 = 12.

It is worth noting that in addition to the significant numbers involved in this case, colours also made an appearance. A report from August ’24 explained how the police assigned colours to the property during their operation.

Media reported that the Police Special Emergency Response Team (SERT) assigned colours to the property during the mission.

The photograph above shows the colours red, white, black, green. While one could never be sure of their meaning it’s possible to hazard a guess using explanations from the occultist, Manly Hall. Thus, green represents nature; black represents death – which must come before transformation takes place; white, red (and yellow) are “the three principal colours of the alchemical, Hermetical, universal medicine after the blackness of its putrefaction is over.”¹

The Trains were killed on the ‘red’ side of the house.

The False St. Michael

The culmination of the initial media barrage surrounding the Wieambilla incident was a police press conference at which the Queensland Police Minister, Mark Ryan, faced the media and prayed the St. Michael prayer. Ryan’s recitation of the prayer was seen by many as the sincere effort of a faithful Catholic to bring solace to a grieving police force; he referred to St. Michael as their patron saint.

The strange thing is that there’s little evidence Mark Ryan is in fact a faithful Catholic. In 2018, he voted to decriminalise abortion in his state of Queensland and reiterated his support for abortion prior to last year’s state election. In 2020, Ryan was behind a law forcing priests to break the seal of confession. So given his shaky Catholic credentials and the red flags flying over anything related to the Wieambilla murders, it is far more likely that Mark Ryan was referencing the fake St. Michael when he addressed the people of Queensland.

Conclusion

While we may not have a clear understanding of the hidden meaning behind the siege and murders, on the natural level it is easy to see elements of the government’s agenda playing out in the wake of the incident. That agenda includes restriction the gun ownership, vilifying anyone who questions the vax, accusing Christians of religious extremism, and the authorities’ sacred cow – censorship.

In light of recent attempts in Australia to censor the internet, particularly social media, a comment from one expert witness at the inquest is highly significant: “Associate prof Josh Roose of Deakin University raised another theory – “algorithmic radicalisation”, a process where a social media algorithm is programmed to radicalise a viewer by showing them increasingly extreme material.” from The Guardian.

Thus the principle becomes clear – when all else fails, blame the algorithm.

The Fake St. Michael of the Occult

Published on January 6, 2025March 3, 2025 by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

While Catholics acknowledge the importance of invoking St. Michael in their daily struggle against the Evil One, the Archangel Michael also appears in occult mythology, where He is venerated as a ‘planetary angel’ of the sun. But are practitioners of the occult referring to the same being found in Scripture?

The answer is no, not at all. Like all anti-Christians, the masters of the Dark Arts – just like their unwitting students, the Modernists – like to use the language of the Church while inserting their own meaning into the words. This is how they communicate with each other while fulfilling their twofold aim: instilling confusion into the minds of the faithful while mocking God.

There are various interpretations and role given to St. Michael in the occult world. The most superficial version is found in some New Age circles, where there is an imprecise notion of St. Michael – and angels in general. This school tends to view angels, as well as God Himself, simply as archetypes. In this case, St. Michael is a fairly vague character – he might represent a concept, such as ‘goodness.’ ¹ This is possibly the meaning given to Michael in the sculpture mentioned at the end of the article.

However, some systems have a more specific idea of their fake ‘St. Michael’. Most seem to agree, as do Christians, that Michael was created prior to man and was present at the fall of the angels from heaven. There the similarity ends, for the occultists hail Lucifer as the supreme good while presenting the Trinitarian God as evil. (In the occult world, Lucifer and God are equally powerful; this is echoed in Eastern philosophies which search for balance: between good and evil, dark and light, male and female and so on.)

The search for balance between two opposing forces is a feature of Freemasonry. Freemasons have a specific concept of St. Michael, as Albert Pike explained in his book, Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry:

“The pavement (of the Lodge), alternatively black and white, symbolizes the Good and Evil principles of the Egyptian and Persian creeds. It is the warfare between Michael and Satan, Light and Darkness, Freedom and Despotism, Religious Liberty and the Arbitrary Dogmas of a Church that thinks for its votaries and whose Pontiff claims to be infallible.”

Albert Pike ²

Further, Masons regard St. Michael as the “planetary angel of the Sun,” a solar being,
ruler of the “Cosmic Fire,” who assists mankind in expanding their consciousness and becoming liberated.³

The idea of ‘solar being’ is found in several secret orders; these are entities who dwell on the sun. They are luminous, perhaps the size of a dinner plate, with the greatest of these being the Archangel Michael.⁴

The Occult Encyclopedia⁵ gives some principles related to the false St. Michael:

His Hebrew letter is hod
He governs the direction of south
His element is fire
Astrologically, Michael is related to Mars and the Sun and to the signs of Aries, Sagittarius and Leo
The day of the week he rules is Sunday.
He is Prince of the angelic choir of Virtues (In Catholic theology, opinions vary as to the status of St. Michael, although none place him as head of the Virtues⁶.)

According to the same source, the consensus among most occultists is that Michael is an Ascended Master⁷. The infamous Theosophist, Helena Blavatsky, for example, believed that all the archangels were spiritual messengers.

One of Blavatstky’s disciples, who went onto to create his own occult movement was Rudolf Steiner. Steiner built a fairly sophisticated philosophy around angels, including St. Michael. Steiner taught that Michael was a spirit with whom man could engage; that the ‘Age of Michael’ began at the end of the nineteenth century; and that a principle ‘sin’ against the spirit of Michael was nationalism. Here we see an example of the message of globalism being given incessantly to occultists.⁸

Another mention of the fake St. Michael is found the esoteric legend of the Holy Grail. In the great battle fought between the good angels and the fallen ones, Michael dislodged a precious gem from Lucifer’s crown. This gem, a sapphire known as the Lapis Exilis, was later used to fashion that legendary treasure: the Holy Grail – Christ’s chalice at the Last Supper.⁹

St. Michael again appears in the world of the occultist Eliphas Levi, who had recourse to the archangel when creating magical swords. Along with the names of other angels (Gabriel and Samuel), Levi instructed that Michael’s name and his famous cry, Quis est Deus, ‘Who is like God?’, should be inscribed on the sword.¹⁰

The Kabbalah has yet another idea about St. Michael. According to Jewish mysticism, God used His angels to communicate Kabbalistic ‘secret knowledge’ to the Patriarchs. Adam was said to have been visited by Raziel; Isaac by Raphael and Moses by Metatron. It was to King David that St. Michael is said to have divulged the mysteries of the Kabbalah.¹¹

According to the Cathedral website, the sculpture is shows the “triumph of good,” but this is apparently not the angel, acting as an agent of God, defeating the fallen Lucifer. Rather, a benevolent St. Michael shows mercy to his pathetic captive. It reads, “St Michael holds his spear upright, not pointing at his captive with aggression, or intention of revenge.”¹².

Demons on Pope Francis: “We Need Him!”

Published on December 23, 2024March 3, 2025 by Kathy Clubb2 Comments

demons are not usually entities whose word can be relied upon, but in 2015, an evil spirit revealed that hell ‘needs’ Bergoglio. the demon metaphorically put his money where his mouth was and helped foil an attempt on the pontiff’s life.

It is fairly well-known that in 2015, authorities discovered that a young man from New Jersey was planning to assassinate Bergoglio during a papal visit to Philadelphia. The teenager, Santos Colon Jr., had been planning for months to have the Pope shot by a sniper during Mass, after which he would let off explosives nearby. The young man apparently changed his name to “Ahmad Shakoor,” prior to the planned attack, to show his solidarity with the Islamic State.

The plot was foiled by the FBI, and according to a CBS news report of the time:

Officials say that Santos talked to someone he thought was a sniper, but was actually an undercover FBI employee. He then engaged in target reconnaissance with an FBI confidential source and told the source to purchase materials to make explosives.

What is not commonly known is that it was occultists who first tipped off the FBI. In her book, The Devil in Dreamland, (click here to purchase) Catholic paranormal expert, Ursula Bielski, reveals how two occultists were given a message by entities they believed to be ‘aliens’, warning them of the planned assassination of the Pope.

Chris Bledsoe, a New Ager – and possibly a Rosicrucian – , and ‘shaman’ Pamela Nance, were in the habit of using a device known as a ‘ghost box’ or ‘spirit box’ to summon aliens and then receive their messages.

Bielski explains that a ‘ghost box’ is a radio that has been altered to make it scan quickly through frequencies, which UFO-chasers believe somehow allows ‘aliens’ to transmit their messages. As Bielski has come to understand, and as well-formed Catholics should already know, these ‘aliens’ are in fact, demons.

During one of their sessions with the ‘ghost box’, Bledsoe and Nance were given an urgent message from the demon they summoned:

“The Pope is in danger! Help him! We need him!”

Bielski claims that this message led Bledsoe to contact a certain Colonel John Alexander and also Joe McMonagle of the CIA. Both men are apparently involved in the practice of ‘remote viewing‘, similar to clairvoyance and which is defined as “practice of “seeking impressions about a distant or unseen subject, purportedly sensing with the mind.” This disturbing detail adds to the growing mountain of evidence that high-level authorities in the U.S. are involved in the occult – and have for many years used occult practices in their official government work.

The two men investigated and confirmed that a plan to kill the Pope was indeed afoot; they then informed police and the would-be assassin was arrested.

To confirm the occult credentials of John Alexander, one need look no further than a project he was involved in: a book and subsequent movie called, “Men Who Stare at Goats.”

“Goats” is a documentary about the American government’s explorations into New Age practices like remote viewing in the hope that they would enhance the skills of their agents. Strangely, the movie is billed as a comedy – yet the use of paranormal powers by governments is no laughing matter. And neither are warnings by demons about the imminent death of a very unworthy Pope.

To hear that the demons “need him” should fill us with regret about hell’s approval of Bergoglio’s agenda.

Yet, the Pope himself thinks he is more powerful than demons. A newly released book about exorcism, which includes an interview with Pope Francis (and therefore can be considered a form of propaganda in his favour) includes this instructive snippet about a nun who was possessed. During the course of an exorcism, she said, with a demon’s voice:

… that the devil hated Pope Francis: “Have you seen everything I put that Argentine through?” the devil said to the priest. “But he doesn’t go away, he is strong, too much for me.”

Although Pope Francis admits that he probably “gets on the devil’s nerves”, that doesn’t mean they are not on the same team; even very close friends can irritate one another from time to time.

The Cross and the Occult

Published on December 2, 2024March 3, 2025 by Kathy Clubb1 Comment

Most of the information in this article is taken from the book ‘The Secret Teachings of all Ages’ by Manly P. Hall, the 20th century occultist. click here to purchase your copy of this valuable reference book.

Ancients revered the cross

According to modern occultists, the cross was associated in pre-Christian times with nature-worship. The Aztecs, Toltecs and American Indians are among those who believed the cross had mystical powers. Eastern religions also incorporated the cross into their symbology, while to the Pythagoreans, the number 10, signified by an X, was sacred. The cross is also revered by the Illuminati, Rosicrucians and Alchemists who believe that it symbolises light.

There are three main types of cross: the Tau; the Crux Ansata; and the Christian cross.

The Tau (Tav) Cross

The Tau cross looks like the modern capital ‘T’ and occultists believe it may have originated among the ancient Egyptians. It is believed to be the oldest form of cross and is sometimes referred to as a ‘hammer’ cross. In Kabbala-Masonry, Tubal-Cain presents a hammer in the form of a Tau cross to Hiram Abiff and this symbol is preserved in Freemasonry as the T-square. This cross has multiple forms among the occult groups, such as the Royal Arch of Freemasonry’s Triple Tau.

The Crux Ansata

The Crux Ansata, also known as the ‘cross of life’, is a Tau cross topped by a circle. Some occultists believe this form of cross is connected to a legend about St. Peter’s ‘golden key’ which gives entry to heaven. Occultists from the Egyptian mystery school revere this form of cross as having power over evil, going so far as to co-opt the words of Constantine, in hoc signo vinces. (‘in this sign I will conquer’ – a reference to the vision God granted to the pagan Constantine ensuring his victory in battle if he used Christ’s cross on his banners.)

To the occultist and pagan, the Crux Ansata is generally associated with water.

The Roman and Greek Catholic Crosses

This is the cross used by Christians to represent Christ’s death; however, occultists do not necessarily believe that Our Lord died on this form of cross.

Occultists acknowledge the importance of the cross to the Christian: that it is a symbol of Christ’s sacrifice while also representing their own hardships in life. But they posit that the sacrificial aspect derives from antiquity, believing that to many ancient civilisations, the cross symbolised the equinoxes and solstices, when the sun was ‘crucified’ in astronomical terms.

Other occultists, unable to attribute Christianity’s popularity to Its intrinsic Truth, claim that the widespread adoption of the cross by Christians is only evidence that it was a highly important symbol to pagans. They point to the Southern Cross constellation, associated with seasonal rainfall and so revered by pagan civilisations, as proof of man’s inherent attraction to the cross as a symbol. The high-level Freemason, Albert Pike, taught that the four letters placed at the top of Christ’s cross during His crucifixion, are connected to the four elements which the Kabbala represents in a cruciform symbol.

Other Significant Ideas about Crosses

Occultists find significance in the fact that a cube can be opened to form a cross. (Image source here)

To the occultist, the cross within a circle may be either a symbol for the planet Earth, or for the element ‘earth’, because it is formed by four triangles representing the four elements.

Alchemists used a cross to symbolise the four constituents of the Philosopher’s Stone, and Freemasons also revere this form of the cross.

Other alchemy symbols which contain crosses.

Composition of Crosses

To the occultist, the composition of a cross is highly significant. A golden cross signifies illumination; a silver cross symbolises purification; a base metal cross symbolises humiliation; a wooden cross represents aspiration.

The cross is sometimes said to symbolise the human body due to the practise of those people who extend their arms while in prayer. The Kabbala, which identifies four natures of man (physical, vital, emotional and mental), relates each nature with one of the four elements, thus adding another layer to its association of the cross with the four elements.

A Wiccan Adoration Chapel in Melbourne

Published on November 11, 2024 by Kathy Clubb2 Comments

An Adoration chapel at St. Kevin’s Novus Ordo parish in suburban Melbourne raises questions as to just who has been designing our modern churches. Named, “Our Father’s Womb”, the chapel exhibits several hallmarks of Wiccan influence: exultation of the Feminine; mockery of the sacred; a giant labyrinth and a spell-casting tool.

Wicca is differentiated somewhat from witchcraft, although the two are related. Wicca is a religion whose disciples, known as practitioners, worship both a God and a Goddess. Wiccans celebrate rituals according to the seasons which, they believe, put them in touch with the Divine. The beliefs of each Wiccan vary according to the individual although the overarching rule is ‘Harm none and do as you will’. Most, but not all, Wiccans practise witchcraft, but not all witches are Wiccans.

The name of this chapel is absolutely bizarre, and suggests the glorification of the Feminine: “Our Father’s Womb: to the glory of God and in honour of our Blessed Mother.”

‘God’ in this case, does not necessarily refer to the Christian God; just as ‘the Blessed Mother’ does not necessarily refer to Our Lady.

Obviously, men do not have wombs and even more obviously, God is pure spirit and most certainly has no human organ such as a womb. Even if we accept the metaphor of a chapel being a womb-like place of security and comfort, the name is illogical from a Catholic point of view. Peace may be a fruit, but is not the purpose of an Adoration chapel. At best, this is the Modernist ideology of man-centredness at play.

At worst though, we are looking at a deliberately pagan mockery of the Blessed Sacrament.

A closeup of the image shows a now-familiar symbol, which has the appearance of a nest holding the Host.

This is very similar to an element found in the logo for the Synod on Synodality.

(I have also previously wondered if this was meant to represent a child in a womb – the Antichrist, perhaps?)

In witchcraft, bird-nests are used for both curses and blessings, so are tools used in spell-casting rituals. There is coincidentally a legend relating to the Celtic saint, St. Kevin, in which a bird made a nest on the palm of his hand. Kevin apparently remained motionless for 40 days while the bird came and went, building the nest.

A different explanation for the nest is that it is actually a crescent moon, which is another symbol for the Feminine.

So far, the signs of a Wiccan influence are somewhat veiled. Once we step inside, however, the occult references are even more pronounced.

To the untrained eye, this is merely a very ugly setting for the exposed consecrated Host. But my learned friend believes that the red curtains are meant to represent female genitalia. He is familiar with this kind of imagery from the shrine to Lucifer in the Brisbane Cathedral.

The spiral surrounding the host is made of metal plates, something akin to the scales of a snake. Snakes have an obvious relevance when it comes to Christianity and witchcraft: they represent Lucifer and his rebellion against God.

According to the book, The Women’s Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets, a spiral represents “death and rebirth as movement into the disappearing-point of formlessness, and out of it again, to a new world of form.”

One variation of the spiral is the labyrinth, and one of these is found in the grounds of the church in question. To pagans, the labyrinth is a “metaphor for the spiritual journey and a powerful tool for transformation. This walking meditation is an archetype, a mystical ritual found in all religious traditions.” Thus walking the labyrinth is a form of meditation – the dangerous mind-emptying kind, not the wholesome Catholic tradition of mental prayer.

Labyrinths are specifically related to Goddess worship, with the circle being an important symbol of the Divine Feminine. So in this setting, the Sacred host is surrounded by two symbols of the Feminine, with the spiral appearing as though it is ready to strangle or consume the Host and the scale of the curtains suggesting the apparent superiority of the goddess over the Triune God.

This raises the question: is the Host in this chapel Consecrated? It is truly the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ? My answer to that is yes, probably. For the insult is only complete when such an ignoble setting surrounds the True Presence of the Lord, precisely as He endured during His Passion.

What the wicked people responsible for this abomination fail to acknowledge is that He alone created them and died for their sins. Unless they repent, the veil of their souls’ temples will one day be torn in two and they will be cast into everlasting fire for their rebellion and their failure to adore the One, True God.

As I was putting together a header image for this post, I wanted to use sacred artwork to counter the foul images of witchcraft that have been flooding my screen. On seeing a beautiful representation of Christ’s Passion, it occurred to me that the Host surrounded by a diabolical wreath of scales is not unlike Christ’s Sacred Head crowned with thorns. Perhaps this is yet another layer of mockery those responsible had in mind.

Let There Be Luce

Published on November 4, 2024November 4, 2024 by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

The controversial anime-inspired ‘Luce’ is the official mascot for the 2025 Jubilee and was launched at a press conference on October 28 by Archbishop Rino Fisichella. Luce’s name is of course derived from the Latin lux, lucis, meaning ‘light’. From this comes such English words as ‘illuminate’, ‘luminous’, and ‘Lucifer’, as well as the Italian, illuminati. (This article from LifeSite gives a very thorough analysis of the name ‘Luce’ and its link with Enlightenment philosophy.)

The artist who created Luce was immediately exposed as being a promoter of LGBTI rights and a purveyor of fine sex-toys, leading to a collective sigh from controversy-fatigued traditional Catholics.

The first thing one notices when first looking at Luce – when one recovers from the visceral response to the sheer insult being given to God and to the Church’s tradition of exceptionally fine art – is the staff in the figure’s left hand. Although being promoted as a pilgrim’s staff, this is very reminiscent of a witch’s stang. The stang is a two-pronged tool made of wood, used by witches for spells and (apparently), for flight.

A stang was famously presented to Pope Francis during the 2018 Synod by a young woman wearing a red string around her wrist. The Pope later carried this stang instead of the usual crozier during Mass.

The Stang, pictured at left with crossed arrows, is the relatively modern name given to a witch’s staff. The word was first used by a male witch in the 1960’s but the tool itself is far older and can be found in ancient artwork as well as in various cultures.

Luce also features a Rosary without a corpus (so as not to offend the Protestants?) worn around its neck and shells in its eyes. Eyes are highly symbolic for occultists, and represent the gateway to inner knowledge. In the esoteric world, shells are said to represent new birth or transformation. At first glance, the eyes of Luce seem to be extremely sad and filled with tears – not a great look in these days of industrial-scale child abuse.

But Luce is only part of a collection of mysterious esoteric-themed artwork being promoted by the Vatican. Vatican News also announced that a bizarre painting will be displayed during the Jublilee. From artist Marc Chagall, the painting will be on loan from the Art Institute of Chicago. The artwork is called, “white Crucifixion’ and shows Jesus on the cross, wearing a Jewish prayer shawl called a tallit.

Chagall, a Jew, was apparently obsessed by Christ’s crucifixion and painted many works around this theme. Some of those showed Chagall’s own face in the figure on the cross. This is said to represent the persecution of Jews, especially during the Holocaust.

But there may be a more sinister interpretation of this: high-level satanists pursue something known as apotheosis, which is the state of ‘becoming a god’. I’ve previously mentioned a book by Kerth Barker, in which he mentions some satanists he knew who displayed statues and artwork which featured their own faces. This was because they wanted to be worshipped as gods. Chagall was perhaps attempting to do the same thing by replacing Christ’s face with his own. Chagall’s work was also featured in an occult art exhibition in Spain in 2023. So while none of this is conclusive evidence of Chagall’s ties to the occult, it is nevertheless interesting in light of the Vatican’s continued use of artwork from Rupnik and its ties to the very strange artist, Jago.

Vatican officials are also planning to use ‘Luce’ as a mascot at the 2025 World Expo to be held in Japan. Along with Luce, the Holy See’s pavilion will exhibit Caravaggio’s Deposition of Christ, shown at left. This may be another clue to the existence of Luce: Caravaggio is known as the ‘Master of Light‘ because of his use of the technique known as tenebrism – the dramatic contrast between dark and light areas – in his works. Caravaggio must be a favourite in the Curia, as he was most likely a bisexual who died at an early age, possibly from either syphilis or murder.

So with Luce, Chagall and Caravaggio, it’s just a case of ‘another day, another immoral role model’ as the Ape of the Church continues its slow grind towards total apostasy.
