Blatant Occultism in Bendigo Cathedral

Blatant Occultism in Bendigo Cathedral

UPDATE: a petition to have this idol removed from Bendigo Cathedral can be found here. Please sign it and share!

An art installation based on tarot cards and witch’s wands is currently on display in a Catholic Cathedral in country Victoria. It comprises a hideous figure reminiscent of a Buddhist idol, covered with a sheer cloth and sprouting five ‘flames’ which seemingly mock the Five Wounds of Christ.

The bizarre idol inside the Cathedral

A Pagan Pilgrimage

Artist, Ben Wrigley, designed the artwork as part of his pagan ‘pilgrimage’ around the town of Bendigo. Participants are encouraged to visit five stations where his art is installed and there to meditate on five points in human life: conception at LaTrobe University (‘amoeba’); birth at St. John of God hospital (‘matter becoming’); adulthood/consumerism at the Old Church on the Hill (‘bowl of plenty’); death at a cemetery (‘river of tears’); and the next life at Sacred Heart Cathedral. This final station is designated ‘transcendence’ and will, as the artist states ” ….resonate within the sacred space, embodying the tension between the earthly materiality and the spiritual.”

Each of the pilgrimage sites hosts an artwork which is meant to embody a milestone of human existence and all of the pieces are made from the same 100-year-old pine tree. Trees are of great significance in the esoteric world, with the pine among those particularly valued since the occult version of Our Lord – the ‘Saviour-God’ or ‘World Martyr’ – is worshipped under the appearance of the pine.

Linked to Tarot Cards

The name of the pilgrimage is ‘The Wands,’ which is a reference to tarot cards: wands correspond to the suit of clubs, cups to the suit of hearts, swords to spades and coins to diamonds. 

The pilgrimage is a said to be a metaphor for one particular card, the Five of Wands. According to tarot practitioners, the Five of Wands represents conflict among different groups who disagree; each person represents a different tribe or group. Some tarot traditions interpret the conflict as being good-natured and even merely ‘for show.’

The Cathedral Installation

Inside the Cathedral, there is an information panel to explain the artist’s rationale for creating the idol. In his words, it represents an ‘enlightened one’ who appeared to him in a dream and who is so resplendent that it needs to be covered.

We are born into matter. dense and needy, hungry. While there is much to be enjoyed, and loved and cherished, there is much pain and suffering; and to practise being ‘held in the hand of God’, to have faith, we can find incremental enlightening along the way. To transcend, to ascent, we can experience being lighter.

This work, Transcendence, is representative of achieving, of becoming fully enlightened beings. Very few achieve this state and to look upon them is too much for one’s mind, our dense selves, hence they are veiled, ethereal. This veil also represents the gossamer thin line between ignorance and understanding. One hand up and one hand down, as above and so below, or ‘as it is in heaven so it is on earth.’ The mound they float above is the matter of which we are born. “We are made of clay”, says John O’Donoghue1, and the lotus has its roots in the mud and our ascension is up, towards enlightened.

We are of the earth, we are made of earth, the earth is us.

This image of ‘Transcendence’ came to me as a vision in a nocturnal dream, replete with flames and colour. Concave feminine and convex masculine. Unlike the other four wands, Transcendence is figurative and detailed. I have been faithful to the image I received, for this is the work, to be present to the gifts and trust, the Great Mystery, to God.

The idol has similarities with Baphomet, as it exhibits both male and female characteristics (“Concave feminine and convex masculine”), and its hands are positioned in the familiar ‘as above, so below’ gestures.

In his explanation, Wrigley also references “The Great Work” (” … for this is the work…”) which is perhaps the key to his entire exhibition. In the esoteric world, the ‘Great Work’ is to discover one’s destiny and to achieve unity with the infinite. The tools employed in doing this work include meditation, Western ceremonial magic, Hermetic Qabalah, yoga and tarot. Collectively, these tools are known as ‘magick.’ Aleister Crowley described the Great Work as “the uniting of opposites …. the uniting of the soul with God, of the microcosm with the macrocosm, of the female with the male, of the ego with the non-ego.”

The idol in Bendigo’s Cathedral clearly illustrates the principles of the Great Work. Its hand gestures and androgyny exemplify the uniting of opposites – not to mention the attempt to unite Catholicism with diabolical mysticism – while, as an ‘enlightened one’, the statue represents unity with the divine. The ‘Third Eye’ symbol on the idol’s brow is a further indication of achieving union with the infinite, thus providing an initiate access to hidden knowledge.

A close-up of the idol’s face taken from the Wands’ website. The sexual overtones in the ‘Third Eye’ symbol are quite clear.

All of this should have been enough to alert the Diocese of Sandhurst, in which the Cathedral is situated, to the diabolical nature of the art installation. Yet, Shane McKinley, Bishop of Sandhurst, claims to have been unaware of the artwork’s occult themes until parishioners pointed out a reference to witchcraft on the official website of the Five Wands pilgrimage.

When describing Ben Wrigley’s use of the fallen pine-tree, the website originally included this statement: His work began with a fallen 100-year-old pine tree, which he saw as a living, breathing entity much like the divination tools used by witches and warlocks who traditionally craft their wands from live trees with the tree’s permission.

The words in bold have now been removed from the Wands website. Bishop McKinley acknowledges the witchcraft reference in the standard response his Diocese is emailing to concerned Catholics. He writes:

” ….the wording that promoted these concerns was not included in the information provided to the Diocese prior to the artwork’s installation and is not part of the signage accompanying the artwork itself. The wording was only present on the website of the overall project. In order to avoid any further confusion or concern about the artwork’s inspiration, the artist has now removed this wording from the website….”

If the good Bishop thinks that by removing a few words he can change the nature of the sacrilegious display in his Cathedral, then he is severely deluded. The very look of the idol itself is enough to alert the most casual Catholic observer as to its unsuitability for a Catholic church.

CIA Occultists & the Ark of the Covenant

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

It was big news last week that the CIA has admitted to its operatives using occult powers to detect what they believed to be the resting place of the Ark of the Covenant.

The Ark is, of course, the unique receptacle mentioned in the Bible in which the Ten Commandments were once housed. The Ark’s design was dictated to Moses by God Himself, as recorded in the Book of Exodus.

This project was known as Sun Streak and was part of the CIA’s wider Stargate Project. The report explains how specially-trained operatives used what they call ‘remote viewing’, otherwise known as clairvoyance or ESP (Extra Sensory Perception) to find the Ark. The operatives said the Ark was in the Middle East and ‘protected by entities’ who possessed a ‘unknown’ power.

According to the CIA, the location revealed by the remote viewer was not examined to ascertain the truth of the claim, and the official story is that the remote viewing project no longer exists – although that should be taken with a grain of salt.

Recreation of the Ark of the Covenant

Christians have long believed that the Ark does still exist, with some suggesting it is hidden in Ethiopia. It seems likely that the Ark will remain hidden until such time as God wants it revealed, and it seems equally unlikely that it will be an immoral government agency, using what is probably demonic power, which will find the precious Ark.

The first file below is the report on the alleged finding of the Ark of the Covenant, which was declassified in 2000.

The second file below is the CIA’s official analysis of the entire Stargate programme, which includes descriptions of how the experiments were conducted and evaluated.

Esoteric Sacrilege in a Viennese Church

Esoteric Sacrilege in a Viennese Church

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

Update – readers from Austria have assured me that Villach is a small town south-west of vienna, rather than a suburb, as I previously thought. Apologies for the error!

A new art exhibition displayed in an Austrian Catholic church is not only sacrilegious, but also shows indications of an occult influence.

The exhibition was launched during Mass on March 9 with the enthusiastic blessing of the parish priest. Entitled CROSS: WAY: STATION (“Kreutz: Weg: Station” in the native tongue) the installation will be displayed in St. Jakob Church in Villach, Austria until April 4.

Artist Michael Kos has taken classic images of Christ and subjected them to abuse in the name of his spiritualised ‘art’. Kos claims that his three pieces, a crucifix, a tabernacle and a bizarre architectural structure in front of the altar are meant to represent the Son of God being subjected to a ‘real ordeal’ – something he undoubtedly managed to achieve by his disrespectful display.

According to Gloria TV, the diocese is run by the heterodox bishop who gave the world an “Episcopal Vicaress.”

Body Cube

The so-called ‘Body Cube’ is set in front of the altar and is large enough to stand in. It is quite disturbing, containing 49 dismembered body parts of Jesus Christ.

Kos explains the structure as a three-dimensional cross and says “the open axis structure of the cube creates a variable play of cross shapes. From every other point of view, different forms arise, from the simple cross to the half cross, the cross of the room to the swastika.”

The use of cubes is the first clue to the display’s occult meaning as adepts appreciate the cube’s secret: when unfolded, it becomes a cross. As explained here in an article about liturgical design, cubes are ‘inherently Masonic.

Kos’ reference to the swastika, is another red flag since the swastika is a well-known New Age symbol. The composition of the structure, black-painted aluminium is a further clue since in the occult, the use of a base-metal for construction of a cross symbolises humiliation.

‘Body Cube’ shown in its entirety
The cube bears a resemblance to the ‘triple-tau’ cross, revered by Freemasons.

Balance Act

A second piece of artwork in the installation is a wooden figure of Christ, covered with white chalk and appearing to balance on a tightrope. The artist believes that this represents “a kind of resurrection happening through a rapture” and that it also refers to the concept of ‘balance.’

As mentioned many times in these pages, the principle of balance is very significant in the occult world. In choosing this theme, the artist underscored the balancing of chaos with order, sin with grace.

Although black-and-white tiled floors are not unusual in Catholic churches, it is perhaps no coincidence that one is found in this particular church. The contrast between black and white is yet another reference to finding ‘balance’ between opposites.

Here is what article Michael Kos says about “Balance Act”:

“Art is very often a balancing act because it can support values but also overthrow them.”

The installation balance.AKT is an unusual, sacred representation that not only shows the change in religion and culture, but also the wafer-thin dividing line between play and existential fall.

No god can be safe in the long run. Every individual and a son of heaven can experience the loss of balance. Man has become one who knows about the light-footed play and the bottomless abyss. [Emphasis added.]

Kos makes no attempt to hide his disdain for the Son of God.

Christpower

The final and most blasphemous of all the artworks is entitled, “Christpower.”

Believe it or not, this is a tabernacle (or at least represents a tabernacle – it isn’t clear whether or not the Blessed Sacrament is actually housed in this monstrosity.)

“Christ Power” is a white lacquered steel tank with a fill indicator which the artist says was inspired by the idea of “a critical tabernacle – or rather a tabernacle in crisis.”

Again, references to the occult are peppered in the artist’s explanation: he says that “shrine”, “transformation” and “secrecy” are all aspects of the tabernacle. ‘Transformation’ is of course, the ultimate ‘balancing’ act.

In his explanation of the work, Kos again shows his disregard for the Catholic faith, calling its veneration for the Blessed Sacrament ‘exaggerated.’ He goes on to suggest that divinity is found within the individual. This is the immanentism of esoteric philosophy and may be contrasted with the Christian idea of transcendence – that God is found beyond the individual.

“The question arises as to the relevance of a unique object today, which was characterized for centuries by cult dramaturgy and symbolic exaggeration.

This work of art oscillates between affirmation and negation of the religious level. The fill indicator is just before the vacancy rate and refers to a vacuum where there could also be spiritual abundance. But what is this abundance? Who fills up at all?

… Isn’t CHRISTPOWER also a psychoanalytic transmission that the believer unconsciously performs himself? So less an external force than an active internal force. A intrinsic force that fades away.

The Eleusinian School

The Eleusinian School

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

The Eleusinian School was the most popular of the many so-called ‘mystery religions’ of ancient times. Like all mystery religions, Eleusinianism was based on rites of initiation which led to ‘transformation’, through a mystical ‘birth’ and ‘rebirth’.

This principle of transformation is commonly found among today’s secret societies and cults such as Illuminism.

The Mystery Religions

As Manly P. Hall points out, the ancient mystery religions “were branches from one philosophic tree [which,] with its roots in heaven and its branches on the earth…” 1

This idea could be seen through the Christian lens of truth and grace having their source in God, yet is an interesting turn of phrase, as it also exemplifies the occult principle of ‘as above, so below‘. This principle falsely posits that what is conceived in the spiritual realm is manifested on earth.

As Christians, we believe that the eternal Wisdom of the Holy Trinity guides all activities on the earth: world events are only the result of God’s Permissive Will or of His Direct Will, but they are always the Will of God alone. [If a satanist or witch ‘manifests’ an outcome via a ritual or spell, then God has merely allowed a demon to fulfil the request in order to honour that person’s free will. We hope that at some point in the unfortunate person’s life, he or she will recognise the demonic power to which they are enslaved and repent.]

‘Eleusinian Mysteries’, Dirck van Baburen, 17th century.

The Eleusinian School

The Eleusinian School was widespread, moving from Greece to Rome and eventually to Britain. Over time, it absorbed some of the smaller mystery cults.

Every year, (some rituals were performed only every five years) its rituals were performed in the city of Eleusis, near Athens, in honour of the goddess, Ceres, and her daughter Persephone.

Ceres and Persephone are the subjects of a famous Greek myth in which Persephone is kidnapped by Hades, god of the Underworld. With assistance from the sun-god, Helion, Ceres succeeds in rescuing Persephone for half the year. This myth came about as an explanation of the seasons; during winter, vegetation ‘dies’ while Persephone visits the Underworld.

Initiates were sworn to secrecy regarding the precise nature of the rituals, however, we do know that the ceremony would begin in Athens with ritual washing, followed by animal sacrifice. On the fourth day of the ten-day festival, participants processed from Athens to Eleusis – a 22km journey. Finally initiates spend several days together inside a temple, undergoing some kind of traumatic ritual which was designed to produce the ‘transformation.’

The intense ritual, wherein candidates were symbolically led on a journey through Hades,2 was led by priests and priestesses while former initiates watched on. It involved activities designed to alter the consciousness of initiates, probably involving emotive music and dancing, and possibly involving hallucinogens.3

Eleusinian Philosophy

At the heart of Eleusinianism is the belief that man’s state after death changes little unless he manages to access ‘secret wisdom’ during his time on earth. “If he does not rise above ignorance during his sojourn here, man goes at death into eternity to wander about forever, making the same mistakes which he made here.”4

Interestingly, the Church Father, Hippolytus, mentioned the Eleusinians in his classic work, the Refutation of all Heresies. Hippolytus draws attention to one part of the secret rituals, the moment when ‘an ear of corn is reaped in silence’. 5 Likewise, Clement of Alexandria warned of the cult in the 3rd century.6

Plato, in his Republic, is thought to contain a reference to the ‘rebirth’ contained in Eleusinian doctrine, and Carl Jung is said to have used the Eleusinian mysteries as a basis for some of his work, particularly his notion of initiation and rebirth as a metaphor for psychoanalysis.7

Frederic Leighton, “The Return of Persephone” (1891). Persephone’s ascent from the Underworld symbolises the initiate’s ‘rebirth’ and lasting transformation.

Eleusinian Symbolism

The following text is taken from Manly P. Hall’s The Secret Teachings of All Ages. It is instructive because it sheds light on the importance placed on the various materials and surfaces with which occultists who are inspired by the Eleusinians surround themselves.

“God being a luminous principle, residing in the midst of the most subtile fire, he remains for ever invisible to the eyes of those who do not elevate themselves above material life: on this account, the sight of transparent bodies, such as crystal, Parian marble, and even ivory, recalls the idea of divine light; as the sight of gold excites an idea of its purity, for gold cannot he sullied. Some have thought by a black stone was signified the invisibility of the divine essence. To express supreme reason, the Divinity was represented under the human form–and beautiful, for God is the source of beauty; of different ages, and in various attitudes, sitting or upright; of one or the other sex, as a virgin or a young man, a husband or a bride, that all the shades and gradations might be marked. Every thing luminous was subsequently attributed to the gods; the sphere, and all that is spherical, to the universe, to the sun and the moon–sometimes to Fortune and to Hope. The circle, and all circular figures, to eternity–to the celestial movements; to the circles and zones of the heavens. The section of circles, to the phases of the moon; and pyramids and obelisks, to the igneous principle, and through that to the gods of Heaven. A cone expresses the sun, a cylinder the earth; the phallus and triangle (a symbol of the matrix) designate generation.”

Expressed in table form, we have

We can see that the meaning attributed to some of these symbols differs from that given by other schools, however this list could help when interpreting the communications and loyalties of occultists.

Conclusion

Having briefly examined the ancient cult of the Eleusinians, we can see its influence on modern-day Gnostic cults.

In fact, some occultists posit that when Christianity took hold and paganism fell into disrepute, the Eleusinians went underground and became the basis for many esoteric religions such as Hermeticism, Kabbalah, Freemasonry, Gnosticism, Neo-Platonism and Alchemy,8 all of which are centred on the theme of spiritual transformation via the attainment of ‘secret’ knowledge.

Additionally, Ceres is the equivalent of Demeter (Rome) and Isis (Egypt), so with goddess worship becoming increasing popular in our post-Christian world, the beliefs and symbolism of the Eleusinians hold extra relevance for us.

Pro-Abortion Nuns & Occult Artwork at Vatican

Abortion Advocates & Occult Artwork at Vatican

Published on by Kathy ClubbLeave a comment

It was bad enough that Papa Bergoglio would agree to meet with the Board of Directors of a pro-abortion NGO at the Vatican. The setting for the official photograph, however, takes this meeting to another level.

The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation is the largest funder of Catholic religious sisters around, has sent millions of dollars towards the formation and good works of Catholic sisters over the years. It also assists refugees, the poor and provides access to safe water – ostensibly one of its seven main goals. The Foundation also has an association with National Catholic Reporter which, due to its heterodox content, even US Bishops have claimed is ‘not really Catholic’.

That’s all well and good but the Hilton Foundation is also very pro-abortion. Among the many organisations the Foundation has helped financially are those dedicated to ‘reproductive health’ aka abortion and contraception, including the ‘California Latinas for Reproductive Justice.’ [see more here.]

California Latinas for Reproductive Justice

Pope Francis met with the Board of the Hilton Foundation on January 22 of this year. He of course told them how wonderful their work was, giving them some gems like “Compassion is not throwing money into the hands of another without looking them in the eyes.“ Right. Be like McCarrick who looked the Popes right in the eyes as he threw them bucketloads of money.

What really caught my eye was the strange artwork hanging in the background of the official photograph of the occasion, which was circulated by the Vatican’s press office. Although not as aesthetically offensive as other artwork favoured by the Curia (thinking here of Rupnik and Jago) this one certainly is strange when you take a close look at it. And the fact that it was chosen as the backdrop to the photograph of Francis taken with abortion advocates and feminist nuns like Nathalie Berquart makes it even more stunning.

“Abbraccio Cosmico” by Camilian Demetrescu

“Abbraccio Cosmico” (Cosmic Embrace) is a tapestry created by by Camilian Demetrescu. Demetrescu was a Freemason-turned-Moslem who associated with Modernists, nihilists and Theosophists. His tapestry was installed in 2008, during the pontificate of Benedict XVI.

Describing his work, Demetrescu claims that:

This tapestry has been made in Italy (Gallese) after the september 11th 2001 : the cosmic love (abbraccio cosmico) is the only response to such a tragedy. Two angels are moving the universe around the planets’ hug.

What he doesn’t explain is that this design is all about astrology, including cosmic portals and ‘as above, so below’ imagery as well as the fake New Age ‘angels’.

Below is one interpretation of the image that came from an occultist – not from the artist himself. [NOTE: This information came from a website called ‘Keys to Ascension’. I really don’t like linking directly to occult websites.]

The translation means “Cosmic Embrace.” The center of this painting is a man and woman1 in a tender embrace. This represents the Sacred Union of the Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine. Uniting the Heart and the Mind through Divine Cosmic Love – Christ Love!

Facing the picture, the Blue Angel on the left represents the Feminine/Universe/ Spirit. The Brown Angel on the right represents Masculine/Earth/Physicality. The Angels wings are pointing up and down. They are each holding a handle. One up – one down. As Above – So Below. The handles are connected to a shaft of Light that runs through the heart center of the Divine Cosmic Embrace. The EnLightened Ones are guiding the transition.

Notice also that the handle held by the Earth Angel is attached to a spiral – a Cosmic Portal. The handle held by the Cosmic Angel is attached to a symbol of the Cardinal Grand Cross2. Earth/Humanity goes through the Cosmic Portal to connect to the heart of Divine Source/Divine Unconditional Love – the Cosmic Embrace. The Cosmic Alignment funnels Light through Divine Source/Divine Unconditional Love to elevate Earth.

The Cosmic Portal envelopes the planets and humanity in a Divine embrace of Christ Consciousness. This is the birth of the New Age of EnLightenment!

  1. Another interpreation explains that the two people embracing are ‘asexual.’ ↩︎
  2. An astronomical formation which is highly significant in the practise of astrology. When a Cardinal Grand Cross occurs in the heavens, it is a ‘sacred day’ to many occultists. ↩︎
A False St. Michael Case Study

A False St. Michael Case Study

Published on 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”.

Crikey.com

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.

Bodycam screenshot.

“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.
