That was all we needed to hear to know that the Cardinals have just elected Francis II. Sure, he might speak Latin beautifully and he might be great at football and his papal name – Pope Leo XIV – sounds quite hopeful.
But Cardinal Robert Prevost is no traditionalist, nor even a conservative when it comes to the things that really count. He is fully committed to “Synodality”, open border migration and LGBT rights. That last one is the most concerning of all, because it means that the moral current flowing through the Vatican will remain contaminated for years to come.
Prevost is such a big hit with the gay Mafia that, prior to the Conclave, conservative news outlets were accused of running a campaign against him. If, by campaign, one means revealing Provost’s ties with sexual abuse cover-ups, then that is certainly true. The arch-Liberal journalist, Austen Ivereigh, was said to be nervous that damning evidence about Prevost was being released so close to the voting, but he need not have feared. As InfoVaticana explains, “Prevost was their man, the candidate in whom they had placed all their hopes.”
The College of Cardinal website provides more details on our new Pope: “views close to Pope Francis”; prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops; “very close to Francis’ vision regarding the environment, outreach to the poor and migrants, and meeting people where they are”; with his views on the blessing of same-sex couples being uncertain:
Although he expressed reservations about “sympathy for beliefs and practices that contradict the gospel,” Cardinal Prevost showed less clarity about Fiducia supplicans, stressing the need for national bishops’ conferences to have doctrinal authority to interpret and apply such directives in their local contexts, given cultural differences. He therefore did not fully endorse nor reject the document.
In her recent article calling for the next Pope to expel homosexualism from the ranks of the clergy, Dr. Janet Smith specifically mentioned Robert Prevost as one of those who was highly suspect:
It is impossible to estimate how many of the cardinals participating in the conclave have either been accused of being active homosexuals or of covering up for homosexuals. SNAP (The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests) submitted to Cardinal Parolin a list of six of the papabile cardinals who have “either enabled or concealed sexual abuse committed by Catholic Clergy”: Péter Erdő from Hungary, Kevin Farrell from the United States, Victor Manuel Fernández from Argentina, Mario Grech from Malta, Robert Francis Prevost from the United States, and Luis Antonio Tagle from the Philippines. A rainbow cloud hangs over the heads of the cardinals from the United States, either for their own suspected homosexual activities or for cover-up of abusive homosexual priests. [emphasis added]
Prevost’s pro-life and other conservative-sounding quotes are already being circulated in the jubilant post-conclave atmosphere. Links are being fabricated between Leo XIV and the lion-hearted Leo XIII, connections made with the date of Prevost’s election (a lesser-known feast of St. Michael) and that mighty angelic defender of the Church.
While it is always possible that the graces of state may kick in and Prevost could surprise everyone by imitating St. Michael or embodying another Leo XIII, at this point in history it is far more likely that Christ and His Church are being mocked yet again by occultists and sex-magicians who have co-opted St. Michael – and Leo XIII – for their own ends.
So pray for the new Pope, as is the obligation of every Catholic. Offer prayers for him at every Mass – if only to gain indulgences for the souls in purgatory – but don’t expect a ‘new springtime’ in the near future. Put your head down, ignore the papal propaganda and work out your salvation in fear and trembling.
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.”
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.”

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.

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.”
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
The sculpture of St. Michael shown in the header image of this article was chosen because it is a possible example of the false angel so beloved of occultists. The sculptor was Jewish and the work adorns the Anglican Cathedral of Coventry.
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.

Most of the information in this article comes from a fascinating book, ‘Pope Leo XIII and the Prayer to St. Michael’. The book looks at various accounts of the origin of the prayer as well as its significance.
Pope Leo XIII famously composed the prayer to St. Michael after seeing a vision in which God gave the devil permission to have free reign over the earth from the mid-twentieth century. The date of that apparition is traditionally given as October 13, 1884 – coincidentally, that is exactly 140 years ago today. This date is significant for several reasons, none of which should be a surprise to my readers. October 13, as well as being the anniversary of Leo’s apparition, it is the date of the miracle of the sun at Fatima (1917) and of the final apparition of Our Lady at Akita (1973).
Some sources believe that Leo’s decision to write the prayer coincided with his increasing concern over the influence of Freemasonry on the Catholic Church. His predecessor, Pius IX, had ordered a set of prayers to be prayed by priest and faithful after Low Mass for the protection of the Church. Leo inserted the prayer to St. Michael into that set of prayers – a practise which continues today in traditional parishes – requesting this from his priests in his classic encyclical against Freemasonry, Humanem Genus.
Leo issued continued warnings to his priests to be increasingly vigilant with regard to dangers both within and without the Church. As well as the St. Michael prayer, Leo composed an exorcism prayer just for priests which is based on the St. Michael prayer as well as a longer version of the St. Michael prayer to be used by the laity.

Leo’s strong condemnations of Masonry drew the ire of the secret societies against him. In particularly egregious incident, the Masons erected a statue of an infamous heretic in Rome. The heretic, Giordano Bruno had been condemned and executed under the Inquisition in 1600.
Bruno was a hero to the Freemasons and other subversive groups and the statue’s sculptor went on to become the Grand Master of the Grand Orient lodge of Italy. By erecting Bruno’s statue, the Masons were in effect thumbing their noses at Pope Leo. Leo’s response was to release another encyclical, Dall’alto dell’Apostolico Seggio, condemning the Freemason’s act. The date of issue was October 15, 1890, just two days after the mysterious and highly significant date of October 13th.
[As an aside, Giordano Bruno was posthumously rehabilitated by the highly suspect Cardinal Angelo Sodano in the year 2000! As another aside, and this is very strange: St. Michael is a saint who is perversely venerated by the Masons, who think of him as the ‘planetary angel of the sun.’]
One reason why Pius and Leo sought to engage extra help from the archangels can be found in the records of exorcists. During exorcisms performed after their pontificates, demons admitted that there had been ‘unusually numerous and strong invasions by diabolical spirits on the earth’ during Pius’ pontificate. One exorcist wrote:
In their battle against the Church, the demons use the wicked people as their allies. They have succeeded in enlisting a large number of people under their banner.
“We have the will of the people on our side,” they say.
The demon ‘Caesar’ leads their forces to stir up governments against the Church. “The people are our trusty storm troops”, he stated.
The Masons are among the main supporters of the demons. Lucifer admits that they are his ‘dearly beloved children’ and calls them his ‘representatives on earth.’
The exorcist continued:
Once they are defeated, the time will come when the members of the secret societies will be humiliated. The Virgin will destroy the secret societies. She has already set herself against them.
So we can see that before Modernism infiltrated the Church, Freemasonry was identified as being Her fundamental enemy, leading Pius to institute extra prayers after Mass for the protection of the Church and leading Leo to compose some very powerful new prayers invoking the great St. Michael.
