St. Kevin’s <em>Novus Ordo</em> 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.</p> <p><a href="https://www.brandeis.edu/now/2021/september/wicca-berger-conversation.html">Wicca</a> 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.</p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:33.33%"> <p></p> <p>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.”</p> <p>‘God’ in this case, does not necessarily refer to the Christian God; just as ‘the Blessed Mother’ does not necessarily refer to Our Lady.</p> <p></p> </div> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:66.66%"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="8150" data-permalink="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/img-2862-2/" data-orig-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg" data-orig-size="3024,2268" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"2.2","credit":"","camera":"iPhone 6s Plus","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1727017206","copyright":"","focal_length":"4.15","iso":"25","shutter_speed":"0.0023041474654378","title":"","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="IMG-2862" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg?w=760" width="3024" height="2268" src="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-8150" srcset="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg 3024w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg?w=150&h=113 150w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg?w=300&h=225 300w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg?w=768&h=576 768w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/img-2862-edited.jpg?w=1024&h=768 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 3024px) 100vw, 3024px" /></figure> </div> </div> <p>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.

Snakes have an obvious relevance when it comes to Christianity and witchcraft: they represent Lucifer and his rebellion against God.</p> <p> According to the book, <em>The Women’s Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets</em>, 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.” </p> <p>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 <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Walking-Sacred-Path-Rediscovering-Labyrinth/dp/1594481814">labyrinth</a> is a “<em>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.</em>” Thus walking the labyrinth is a form of meditation – the dangerous mind-emptying kind, not the wholesome Catholic tradition of mental prayer.</p> <p>Labyrinths are <a href="https://shewhoseeks.blogspot.com/2010/09/pagan-labyrinths.html">specifically</a> 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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p></p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="cat-links">Categories <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/category/occult/" rel="category tag">Occult</a></span><span class="sep">•</span><span class="tags-links">Tags <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/adoration/" rel="tag">Adoration</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/australia/" rel="tag">Australia</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/blessed-sacrament/" rel="tag">Blessed Sacrament</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/culture/" rel="tag">Culture</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/featured/" rel="tag">Featured</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/melbourne/" rel="tag">Melbourne</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/modernism/" rel="tag">Modernism</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/occult/" rel="tag">Occult</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/wicca/" rel="tag">Wicca</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/witchcraft/" rel="tag">Witchcraft</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-8027" class="post-8027 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-occult tag-art tag-caravaggio tag-culture tag-featured tag-luce tag-marc-chagall tag-occult tag-pope-francis tag-stang"> <div class="featured-image"> <span> <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/11/04/let-there-be-luce/"><img width="940" height="627" src="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=940" class="attachment-toujours-featured size-toujours-featured wp-post-image" alt="Let there be Luce" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=940 940w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=150 150w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=300 300w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=768 768w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=1024 1024w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" data-attachment-id="8057" data-permalink="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/11/04/let-there-be-luce/luce/" data-orig-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png" data-orig-size="1200,800" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="LUCE" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/luce.png?w=760" /></a> </span> </div> <header class="entry-header"> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/11/04/let-there-be-luce/" rel="bookmark">Let There Be Luce</a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> <span class="posted-on"><span>Published on <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/11/04/let-there-be-luce/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2024-11-04T10:10:31+11:00">November 4, 2024</time><time class="updated" datetime="2024-11-04T10:20:13+11:00">November 4, 2024</time></a></span></span> <span class="byline">by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/author/anonymouscath/">anonymouscath</a></span></span><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/11/04/let-there-be-luce/#respond">Leave a comment</a></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <p>The controversial anime-inspired ‘Luce’ is the official mascot for the 2025 Jubilee and was<a href="https://www.vaticannews.va/en/vatican-city/news/2024-10/jubilee-of-hope-2025-concerts-art-exhibitions.html"> launched</a> at a press conference on October 28 by Archbishop Rino Fisichella.

(<a href="https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/is-there-a-link-between-vatican-mascot-luce-and-lucifer/?utm_source=featured-news&utm_campaign=usa">This article</a> from LifeSite gives a very thorough analysis of the name ‘Luce’ and its link with Enlightenment philosophy.)</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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.</p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-5 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"> <p></p> <p></p> <p>A stang was famously <a href="https://wdtprs.com/2018/10/what-is-that-synod2018/">presented</a> to Pope Francis during the 2018 Synod by a young woman wearing a red string around her wrist.

The word was first <a href="https://www.patheos.com/blogs/byathameandstang/2016/08/the-stang/">used</a> 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.</p> </div> </div> <p>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.</p> <p>But Luce is only part of a collection of mysterious esoteric-themed artwork being promoted by the Vatican. <a href="https://www.vaticannews.va/en/vatican-city/news/2024-10/jubilee-of-hope-2025-concerts-art-exhibitions.html">Vatican News</a> also announced that a bizarre painting will be displayed during the Jublilee.

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. </p> <p>But there may be a more sinister interpretation of this: high-level satanists pursue something known as <em>apotheosis</em>, which is the state of ‘becoming a god’. I’ve <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/27/synarchy-and-the-illuminati/">previously</a> mentioned a <a href="https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/1503196348?ref_=mr_referred_us_au_au">book</a> 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 <a href="https://www.widewalls.ch/magazine/occult-art">art exhibition</a> 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 <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2023/06/06/vatican-continues-to-use-rupniks-art/">Rupnik</a> and its ties to the very strange artist, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/07/02/more-evidence-of-a-vatican-s-cult/">Jago</a>.</p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex"> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img data-attachment-id="8030" data-permalink="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/11/04/let-there-be-luce/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio/" data-orig-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio.jpg" data-orig-size="202,300" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="The_Deposition_of_Christ_(Caravaggio)" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio.jpg?w=202" data-large-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio.jpg?w=202" loading="lazy" width="202" height="300" src="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio.jpg?w=202" alt="" class="wp-image-8030" style="width:287px;height:auto" srcset="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio.jpg 202w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/the_deposition_of_christ_caravaggio.jpg?w=101 101w" sizes="(max-width: 202px) 100vw, 202px" /></figure> </div> <div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow"> <p></p> <p>Vatican officials are also planning to use ‘Luce’ as a mascot at the 2025 World Expo to be held in Japan.

It may be that they mean the general concept of a technology-based rule by a minority, which is also synonymous with <em>technocracy. </em>Or they may mean something more specific<em>: </em>a group of high-level occultists who seek to manipulate the world using Luciferian powers, and who infiltrate governments, institutions and religious organisations in order to create their own totalitarian, globalist World Order. It is this second meaning, a specific secret society with their specific goal of world governance, to which this article refers.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Although these days, there are very few who acknowledge that the shadowy figures behind the New World Order are Synarchists, there were, in the past, a number of writer and investigators who exposed Synarchy in all its brutal reality. One of these was the Catholic author, Pierre Virion, who wrote extensively on Synarchy and the New World Order during the 1970’s. </p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">In his book, <em>Mysterium Iniquitas</em>, Virion wrote that Synarchy is defined as:</p> <blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"> <p class="has-medium-font-size">a set of occult powers of all orders and of all schools united to contribute to the formation of an invisible world government. Politically, it is the desired integration of all the social and especially financial powers, forming this government in a generalized, technicalized socialist regime, extending to the world divided into geo-political zones.”</p> </blockquote> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Virion continues,</p> <blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Catholicism would be like all religions reputed to be equal, absorbed in a universal syncretism.</p> </blockquote> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Looking at Virion’s definition, it becomes immediately obvious that the goals of Synarchy coincide precisely with the goals of Freemasonry: a universalist world religion in which the Catholic Church is no longer seen as the One, True Faith. This is the end goal of the false ecumenism which is so prevalent in the Church today, and indeed, the ecumenical movement grew out the false ideas of the Synarchists.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The religion of Synarchy itself sprang from the Lodges and, as we will eventually see, influenced the Masons to work <em>with </em>the Catholic Church, rather than trying to annihilate Her, as had previously been their plan.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Another early writer on Synarchy was Fr Gruber, who described it as: “a centralized world state with a centralized government planned as an anti-church.” (<em>Athanasius and the Church of our Time</em> p 31)</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Thus, is can be seen that Synarchy is a form of Freemasonic totalitarian government, the religion of the Technocrats. Rather than being a purely spiritual movement, Synarchy seeks to employ financiers, industrialists, technocrats as well as spiritual leaders to force compliance on the populace. This is the dark and sinister end-game of globalist entities such as the World Economic Forum, the Bilderbergers, the Council on Foreign Relations and the United Nations for which the hysterical COVID ‘pandemic’ was a trial run.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">[Note: In Europe, the media sometimes uses the term “synarchy” to describe any kind of conspiracy or cartel.]</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Goal of Synarchy</h3> <p class="has-medium-font-size">It is important to realise that within the dark and shadowy world of the the secret societies, there are not always bright lines delineating particular philosophies and denominations. There is a great deal of overlap, with shifting loyalties, degrees of understanding by adherents, a constant splintering and restructuring within groups with everything veiled in the utmost secrecy.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Individual initiates join the various groups for a variety of reasons – none of which may be related to world domination or even to the occult. This is particularly true of the lower levels of Freemasonry, when members may be interested purely in fostering business relationships. Even though they necessarily become involved in occult rituals, these men and women may not even realise the fact. </p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">There are certain groups, however, whose membership is limited to those specifically pursuing esoteric knowledge. These include the Rosicrucians, the Martinists, members of the Order of the Golden Dawn and the OTO, Theosophists and so on and they are under no illusions about the true source of any power they may acquire. The Synarchists are part of this latter group, and its leaders are part of the highest level of occultists: those in direct communication with satan.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The common thread in all these brotherhoods is the source of the anti-Christic inspiration behind them. Although each adherent may perform a different series of rituals and be influenced by a completely different set of philosophies and personalities, the end goal of the demonic intelligence behind all of them is the same: the total enslavement of the human race to satan using technology and every other lever of power in society.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">This is the diabolical inversion of the reign of Christ the King: the reign of satan as lord of the world. Every secret society is in some way contributing to that goal, whether or not the individuals within those groups understand it.</p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The History of Synarchy</h3> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Given the secretive nature of Synarchy, there will always remain some aspects and personalities that are unknown to us – especially those at the ‘top’ for whom their involvement would compromise their ability to work behind the scenes.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">There are many men from the past, however, whose involvement is documented; they are the founders of Synarchy and their disciples. These include the defrocked <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/abbe-roca-1830-1893/">Abbé Roca</a>, Joseph <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/saint-yves-alveydre/">Alexandre Saint-Yves Alveydre</a>, and <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/raoul-husson/">Raoul Husson</a>. (Each of these has a separate page which can be accessed by clicking on their name.)</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Joseph Alexandre Saint-Yves d’Alveydre was an occultist who was active at the turn of the 19th Century. He is credited as being the founder of Synarchy because he was the first to record its doctrines. According to Saint-Yves, the principle tenet of Synarchy was to pursue a world government with a world religion which was a mixture of the major spiritualities, including Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism and Islam. This world religion would be based on superstition and esotericism, rather than on any true supernatural belief.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Out of Saint-Alveydre’s teachings came the Martinist Order, founded by another occultist named Gerard Encausse, also known as Papus. One of the chief aims of this order was to form a “United States of Europe.” Saint-Yves had this idea as did his friend, Victor Hugo. Some say the Martinists also wanted to unite all occultists into a reformed Rosicrucianism, making Russia a link between East and West. Martinists initiated only master Masons into their brotherhood.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Synarchy then became linked with the rise of Fascism, especially in Italy and with the Pan-European movement.  An <em>International Synarchist Movement</em> was founded in 1919 to counter the rise of Communism after the Russian Revolution. There also seems to have been some influence by Synarchists on the ideology of Nazism.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The death of Encausse in 1916 led to a rupture among the Martinists due to the aversion of some to be involved in politics. The political Martinists went on to form the <em>Martinist and Synarchic Order</em> in 1921, headed by Victor Blanchard, who was another friend of Saint-Yves.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Blanchard was the secretary to the French government’s Council of Ministers and was also a member of the <em>Polaire Brotherhood</em>, a mysterious group which apparently received its orders via the Ouija Board.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Blanchard went on to form the <em>Synarchic Central Committee</em> in 1922, followed by the <em>Synarchic Revolutionary Convention, </em>in order to enlist fresh young blood from the business and bureaucratic worlds<em>.</em></p> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">United Europe – the Synarchist Pact</h3> <p class="has-medium-font-size">From the 1930’s, the explicit idea of a United Europe became a theme among the Synarchists. A document known as the <em>Synarchist Pact </em>was written (possibly) by the occultist, Vivien Postel du Mas, in 1930 and this became a platform for the various Synarchist groups. The <em>Pact</em> was kept so secret that its existence remained unknown until 1941.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The Pact described the Synarchists’ plan to infiltrate governments and first take over France then form a “European Union.” Postel du Mas held soirees in his apartment where information from the “secret master” was delivered through a medium. It is said that the meetings were attended by “men of science, company directors and bankers.”</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The<em> Synarchist Empire Movement</em> was formed in 1932 by Postel du Mas and another occultist, Jeanne Canudo. Their own secret society had the stated aim of influencing politics and the economy using spiritism. This group was responsible for much of France’s right-wing terrorism initiated by groups such as CSAR, the Secret Committee for Revolutionary Action, during the 1930’s</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The movement to unite Europe continued unabated and from 1932 was spearheaded by Count Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi of Austria under the banner of the Pan-European movement. Coudenhove-Kalergi became extremely influential: Otto von Hapsburg referred to him as “guide and prophet” of a United Europe while even Winston Churchill was influenced by him and in 1953, wrote the foreword to the Count’s book. </p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Churchill also began to promote the idea of a united Europe. One of Coudenhove-Kalergi’s ideas, that of dividing the world into “five Imperial federations” was found in the Synarchic Pact document. </p> <p class="has-small-font-size">IMAGE CREDIT: Luca Signorelli: S<em>ermon and Deeds of the Antichrist</em> – Wikimedia</p> <p></p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="cat-links">Categories <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/category/synarchy/" rel="category tag">Synarchy</a></span><span class="sep">•</span><span class="tags-links">Tags <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/featured/" rel="tag">Featured</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/freemasonry/" rel="tag">Freemasonry</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/globalism/" rel="tag">Globalism</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/history/" rel="tag">History</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/new-world-order/" rel="tag">New World Order</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/occult/" rel="tag">Occult</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/satanism/" rel="tag">Satanism</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/synarchy/" rel="tag">Synarchy</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/technocracy/" rel="tag">Technocracy</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-7827" class="post-7827 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-synarchy tag-atlantis tag-freemasonry tag-occult tag-rosicrucianism tag-saint-yves-alveydre tag-synarchy"> <div class="featured-image"> <span> <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/saint-yves-alveydre/"><img width="940" height="627" src="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=940" class="attachment-toujours-featured size-toujours-featured wp-post-image" alt="Saint-Yves d"Alveydre" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=940 940w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=150 150w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=300 300w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=768 768w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=1024 1024w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" data-attachment-id="7828" data-permalink="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/saint-yves-alveydre/saint-alveydre/" data-orig-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png" data-orig-size="1200,800" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Saint Alveydre" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/saint-alveydre.png?w=760" /></a> </span> </div> <header class="entry-header"> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/saint-yves-alveydre/" rel="bookmark">Saint-Yves Alveydre</a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> <span class="posted-on"><span>Published on <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/saint-yves-alveydre/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published updated" datetime="2024-10-21T10:13:58+11:00">October 21, 2024</time></a></span></span> <span class="byline">by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/author/anonymouscath/">anonymouscath</a></span></span><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/21/saint-yves-alveydre/#respond">Leave a comment</a></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Around the turn of the nineteenth century, there was a resurgence of interest in Rosicrucianism, Kabbalism and Spiritualism among Freemasons. You may <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/10/13/the-st-michael-prayer-was-an-antidote-to-freemasonry/">recall</a> that demons have revealed to exorcists that that this time period was marked by a great increase in demonic activity. Various groups, including the Kabbalist Order of the Rose-Cross, the Martinists and the Symbolists, splintered off from Masonry. These groups were particularly active in France.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">One member who had connections with several of these groups was Joseph Alexandre Saint-Yves Alveydre (1842-1909). Saint-Yves was a member of the occult, moving in circles with Victor Hugo and Lord Bulwer-Lytton.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">who is credited with being the founder of Synarchy because he was the first to write down its doctrines. Saint-Yves believed that he was in contact with a superior race of beings who communicated with him telepathically. He claimed that the principles of Synarchy were given to him by these beings as a way of countering the spread of anarchy which was prevalent at that time.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Whereas anarchy holds that there should be no governing authority, Synarchy imposes control over every facet of life. More specifically, Saint Yves believed that the superior beings who gave him this secret knowledge would help a ruling elite to govern society.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Saint-Yves believed that the world had once been ruled by such an elite and that their civilization was destroyed by natural disaster. His hypothesis is reflected in the legend of Atlantis and he believed that the Atlantians constructed the Sphinx.. Throughout history, the cosmic powers continued to send prophets such as Jesus, Moses, and of course, Saint-Yves, using secret societies to pass on the philosophy of synarchy. One example of this is the Knights Templar, whom he regarded as the perfect model of Synarchists because of their level of control over the three levers of power: socio-political, religious and economic.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Saint-Yves believed these three areas should be controlled by an elite who took their orders from the “wise ones”. This would be done without the general population realising that they were being governed by elite puppets. Once the elites gained control of the three levers of power, it would not matter whether a government was on the “left” or on the “right” – the outcome would be the same.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Saint-Yves also called for a united state of Europe – something that will become important later in our inquiry. Apart from his interest in geo-politics, His Synarchy adopted elements from popular occult movements of his time, melding them with his principle of taking orders directly from the “enlightened beings.”</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Saint-Yves wrote many books in which he described plans for a Universal Synarchist Church, which is nothing other than <em>Masonic syncretism</em>. A blend of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, the church of the Synarchists would be cultural as well as spiritual.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Saint-Alveydre’s Universal Synarchic Church did not attempt to eliminate the Catholic Church, but to subsume Her into its ranks. For this two occur, Catholicism would firstly need to agree that all religions are equal and then to come to terms with Freemasonry. One can see how closely the post-Conciliar Popes have followed this programme through their promotion of ecumenism.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">And while they may have officially upheld the Church’s teaching on Freemasonry, in their words and actions, they have been quite tolerant of Masonry within the hierarchy. Saint-Alveydre promoted the idea that Masonry was based in Christianity, writing that:</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">“If Masonry admits men without distinction of race, worship, creed, to fraternal assistance from the Prince of Wales to the pariahs of India, then it is more Christian, more Orthodox in the eyes of Jesus than you who anathematize it.” (<em>Mission des Souverains</em>, p 446, as quoted in <em>Mystère d’iniquité</em>)</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Saint-Alveydre’s comment is reminiscent of Stefano Bisi, Grand Master of the Grand Orient of Italy. At a recent <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/02/16/historic-debate-on-church-masonry-relationship-in-milan/">event</a> to promote <em>rapprochement </em>between Masonry and Catholicism, he said:</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">“The starry sky is the same for the Buddhist, for the Catholic, for the Waldensian, for the Muslim, for all those who believe in a supreme being,” he continued, adding: “We set our brothers free to adhere to any religion and to practice. Absolute truths and walls of the mind do not belong to us, and for us they must be torn down.” </p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">His 1877 book, <em>Keys to the East,</em> introduced Synarchy to a popular audience. In1886,   Saint-Yves created the Syndicate of the Professional and Economic Press which introduced business and political leaders to synarchy. Enthusiasts included French minister François Césaire Demahy and Paul Deschanel who later became President of France.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">There seems little doubt that Saint-Yves was in direct communication with demons and that the principles of Synarchy were directly inspired by hell. Certainly the consequences of a totalitarian state ruled by an unworthy elite seem consistent with their origin. Anything that lacked evidence, such as his ideas about race or the origins of the world were for Saint-Yves a product of the secret knowledge from the “wise ones.”</p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="cat-links">Categories <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/category/synarchy/" rel="category tag">Synarchy</a></span><span class="sep">•</span><span class="tags-links">Tags <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/atlantis/" rel="tag">Atlantis</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/freemasonry/" rel="tag">Freemasonry</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/occult/" rel="tag">Occult</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/rosicrucianism/" rel="tag">Rosicrucianism</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/saint-yves-alveydre/" rel="tag">Saint-Yves Alveydre</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/synarchy/" rel="tag">Synarchy</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-7485" class="post-7485 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-masonic-infiltration-of-the-church tag-aliens tag-demons tag-featured tag-john-xxiii tag-loris-capovilla tag-luis-sartori tag-occult"> <div class="featured-image"> <span> <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/18/roncalli-and-the-aliens/"><img width="940" height="627" src="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=940" class="attachment-toujours-featured size-toujours-featured wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=940 940w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=150 150w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=300 300w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=768 768w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=1024 1024w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" data-attachment-id="7488" data-permalink="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/18/roncalli-and-the-aliens/alien-j23/" data-orig-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png" data-orig-size="1200,800" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Alien J23" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/alien-j23.png?w=760" /></a> </span> </div> <header class="entry-header"> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/18/roncalli-and-the-aliens/" rel="bookmark">Roncalli and the ‘Aliens’.</a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> <span class="posted-on"><span>Published on <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/18/roncalli-and-the-aliens/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2024-09-18T15:21:11+10:00">September 18, 2024</time><time class="updated" datetime="2024-10-06T11:14:02+11:00">October 6, 2024</time></a></span></span> <span class="byline">by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/author/anonymouscath/">anonymouscath</a></span></span><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/18/roncalli-and-the-aliens/#comments">1 Comment</a></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <h4 class="wp-block-heading">This is an extract from the book I’m working on: The unofficial title is “Synarychy: How John XXIII opened the door to Freemasonry and the New World Order.”</h4> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Finally, and perhaps the most bizarre story of all, John is said to have spoken with an alien at Castelgandalfo in 1961. His longtime secretary, Cardinal Loris Capovilla, also claimed to have witnessed the meeting.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The story was first published in an Argentinian online <a href="https://www.diariopopular.com.ar/juan-xxiii-el-papa-que-hablo-un-extraterrestre-n190069">news service</a> in 2014, (and later shared at Tradition in Action <a href="https://www.traditioninaction.org/History/G_022_PopeET.htm">here</a>) and the author was a ‘psychic’ named Luis Sartori.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sartori was related to Capovilla, who was the first cousin of his maternal grandmother. Sartori claimed he had a written testimony from his relative who wrote that the incident took place when he and Pope John were walking in the gardens of Castelgondolfo, the papal holiday residence, in July 1961.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Capovilla wrote that they saw “a craft above our heads. It was oval and had flashing blue and amber lights.” The craft set down “on the grass on the south side of the garden. A strange being emerged from it: it looked like a human except that it was surrounded by a golden light and had elongated ears. <strong>His Holiness and I knelt down. We didn’t know what we were seeing, but we knew it was not of this world, so it must have been a heavenly event.</strong></p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">“We prayed and when we raised our heads, the being was still there. That was proof that we had not had a vision. The Holy Father stood up and walked toward the being. The two of them talked for about 20 minutes. They did not call me, so I stayed where I was and could not hear anything they said. Finally the being turned around, walked toward the ship and left.”<em> </em></p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">“His Holiness returned and told me that the children of God are everywhere; sometimes we have difficulty recognizing our own brothers.”</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sartori concluded by writing that “…. the Church accepts the existence of extraterrestrials and has even set up, together with NASA, in some very secret place, some kind of secret research center to follow the movements of these beings and their ships night and day.”</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">Sartori adds some interesting commentary; namely that, Pope Roncalli had regular communications with Our Lord and the Blessed Virgin Mary and that this has been common knowledge since 1959. According to Sartori, the heavenly apparitions gave John prophecies about the future. Curiously, this lines up with the statements made by <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/08/17/was-john-xxiii-really-initiated-into-the-rosicrucians/">Carpi </a>in his book, although it is always possible that this claim originated with Carpi himself.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">The entire incident including Capovilla’s testimony is exceedingly strange and its veracity is let down by several weak links in the chain of information. Yet, it is significant that so many equally bizarre stories swirl around the figure of Pope John. Also significant is the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTllt3NuDMo">theory</a> that alien communications are in fact manifestations of the demonic. If it is true that John was involved in the occult, then direct communication with demons is hardly surprising. That a demon would disguise itself as an alien when meeting with men who fully believed in extra-terrestrial creatures is also unsurprising.</p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">It brings to mind comments made by Constance Cumbey, an evangelical Protestant lawyer, in her 1983 book, <em>Hidden Dancers of the Rainbow</em>. In it, she wrote: </p> <p class="has-medium-font-size">“If there has been a single Catholic Pope who permitted the New Ager’s plan to take root within the Roman Catholic Church, it was Pope John XXIII, who is spoken of reverentially by New Agers and ‘Catholic’ modernists.” (p. 160.)</p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="cat-links">Categories <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/category/masonic-infiltration-of-the-church/" rel="category tag">Masonic Infiltration of the Church</a></span><span class="sep">•</span><span class="tags-links">Tags <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/aliens/" rel="tag">Aliens</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/demons/" rel="tag">Demons</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/featured/" rel="tag">Featured</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/john-xxiii/" rel="tag">John XXIII</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/loris-capovilla/" rel="tag">Loris Capovilla</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/luis-sartori/" rel="tag">Luis Sartori</a>, <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/tag/occult/" rel="tag">Occult</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-7387" class="post-7387 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-the-essence-of-freemasonry tag-featured tag-gesture tag-illuminati tag-occult tag-pope-francis tag-vatican"> <div class="featured-image"> <span> <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/02/bergoglios-visitor-flashes-occult-credentials/"><img width="940" height="627" src="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=940" class="attachment-toujours-featured size-toujours-featured wp-post-image" alt="Bergoglio's Visitor Flashes Occult Credentials" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=940 940w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=150 150w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=300 300w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=768 768w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=1024 1024w, https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" data-attachment-id="7388" data-permalink="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/02/bergoglios-visitor-flashes-occult-credentials/png-visitor/" data-orig-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png" data-orig-size="1200,800" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="PNG visitor" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=300" data-large-file="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/png-visitor.png?w=760" /></a> </span> </div> <header class="entry-header"> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/02/bergoglios-visitor-flashes-occult-credentials/" rel="bookmark">Bergoglio’s Visitor Flashes Occult Credentials</a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> <span class="posted-on"><span>Published on <a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/02/bergoglios-visitor-flashes-occult-credentials/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2024-09-02T10:22:24+10:00">September 2, 2024</time><time class="updated" datetime="2024-09-03T07:43:17+10:00">September 3, 2024</time></a></span></span> <span class="byline">by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/author/anonymouscath/">anonymouscath</a></span></span><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://ecclesiasticalfreemasonry.com/2024/09/02/bergoglios-visitor-flashes-occult-credentials/#respond">Leave a comment</a></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <p>The meeting itself was scandalous enough: a semi-naked man in the Vatican’s official reception room, ostensibly to promote the Pope’s upcoming trip to Papua New Guinea. The topless man is Mundiya Kepanga, an environmental activist and Papuan tribal chief who was in Rome last May.</p> <p>But worse than his state of undress was the message he sent through Vatican channels: Kepanga overtly flashed this hand gesture, used by occultists such as the Illuminati and by practitioners of magical yoga, in full view of the video cameras of media outlet <em>Rome Reports</em>.

These ‘gods’ are, of course, demons, thus it seems that Kepanga is accessing demons to gain power. Indeed, sorcery and witchcraft are the part of everyday life for the Huli people. Yet Kepanga is clearly into more than that: his gesture reveals that he part of a contemporary occult society – one he felt compelled to acknowledge and promote from the very centre of Catholicism.</p> <p>As we know, paganism and occultism pose no obstacle for this Pope. In fact, they are openly welcomed and are the only form of traditionalism being promoted currently in the Vatican. The ‘backwardism’ of the traditional liturgy is condemned but what could be more ‘backwardist’ than a twenty-first century environmental activist wearing indigenous fancy-dress?</p> <p>Bergoglio has entertained a steady stream of occultists, sodomites and witches, flaunting their meetings via his official media outlets. So the question remains: why would a Pope applaud these practices – unless they are part of his religion?</p> <div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9
