also in their eyes anti-christian. ergo, witchcraft and satanism were one and the same. in 1604 king james i passed his witchcraft act, but this was repealed in 1736. it was replaced by an act that stated that there was no such thing as witchcraft and to pretend to have occult powers was to face being charged with fraud. by the late seventeenth century the surviving members of the craft had gone underground; into hiding. for the next three hundred years, to all appearances witchcraft was dead. but a religion which had lasted twenty thousand years, in effect, did not die so easily. in small groups surviving covens, oftimes only of family members the craft continued. in the literary field christianity had a heyday. printing had been invented and developed during the persecutions, therefore

t laws against witchcraft were finally repealed. this cleared the way for the witches themselves to speak up. in 1954 dr. gerald brousseau gardner, in his book witchcraft today, said, in effect 'what margaret murray has theorized is quite true. witchcraft was a religion and in fact it still is. i know, because i am a witch myself" he went on to tell how the craft was still very much alive, albeit underground. he was the first to give the witches' side of the story. at the time of his writing it seemed, to him, that the craft was rapidly declining and perhaps only hanging on by a thread. he was greatly surprised when, as a result of the circulation of his books, he began to hear from many covens throughout europe "in new england the law was as in england: witches were hung. it was in scotla

i have no doubt they have still come here, however, and in increasing numbers in more recent times. the lord of the rings by j.r. tolkien, has themes of war between the humanlike hobbits and the little grey orcs which many believe resemble the themes of what has actually happened, even down to the descriptions of subterranean laboratories which mirror the claims of what is happening today in the underground bases and genetic laboratories under america and other countries. the battle for the earth possibly reached its most destructive phase at the end of atlantis, over a period of tens of thousands of years, leading up to the vast island of atlantis sinking into the atlantic ocean around 10,500-9,500bc. the evidence is mounting from many sources of some cataclysmic weather and geological u

merged. some, like the cathars in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, were destroyed by the catholic church in the most horrific manner after spreading their influence over a wide area from their base in southern france. the knights of the temple (knights templar, who came to prominence about the same time as the cathars, were dealt with equally severely by papal 'justice. but the templars went underground and their influence has continued up to the present day, both in their own right, and within other secret societies which are, after all, part of the same overall organisation. this period of the cathars and the crusades spawned many brotherhood offshoots, which continue to significantly influence events- secret societies like the knights hospitallers of st. john, known today as the kn

and dragons) as diabolical. a major phenomenon that grew out of this attention in the late 1980s and the early 1990s was the satanic ritual abuse (sra) scare, sometimes referred to as the satanic panic. although not entirely responsible for this panic, the christian subculture played a key role in promoting the ritual abuse scare to the broader society. during this period, the reality of a vast, underground network of evil satanists abusing children and others was accepted by significant segments of the law enforcement community and by numerous therapists even police officers and analysts not otherwise inclined to accept traditional theology. less responsible members of the mass media, attracted by the sensationalism of these claims, avidly promoted the idea. the sra scare went into a sha

adopted both the stereotype of sinister cults and the mind control notion from the acm. although understood as a kind of cult mind control, satanic mind control was originally invoked for a completely different reason: cult mind control explained why someone s adult child could join a crazy religious group. satanic programming, on the other hand, explained how a hypothetical network of secretive underground satanic cult groups could manage to control both victims and members so that no one would ever reveal the truth about their existence. it also provided a theoretical background for understanding how recovered memory therapy (hypnotizing alleged victims to uncover repressed memories of abuse) worked and why it was necessary. the acm climbed aboard the ritual abuse bandwagon to expand it

ew cases with genuine satanic elements such as the night stalker murders, one is forced to confront one of the basic premises of much occult crime thinking, namely the usually unstated assumption that satanism somehow causes individuals to commit crimes. the premise that the occult is an independent motivating factor is dubious at best. in the face of the empirical absence of an infernal criminal underground, occult crime experts have often attempted to draw links to organized satanist groups, particularly the church of satan. during the height of the sra scare, police seminars on occult crime frequently included segments on organized satanism that warned against the social dangers of the philosophy of personal indulgence advocated by the satanic bible. despite the fact that anton lavey ex

common fairies resemble common farmers and other country folk. those scholars incapable of accepting any other than a material explanation for a mystery have asserted that fairies are a mythic remembrance of an ancient race of people who inhabited the british isles before the coming of the celts. this primitive people, called picts, were smaller than the celts who displaced them, and were driven underground to live in caves, venturing forth only at night or in remote places where they would not be observed. it is a seductive explanation for the materially minded, but there is little or nothing in hard evidence to substantiate it. fairies are said to exist in many lands where there were no picts. another peculiar aspect of the appearance of fairies is that they are frequently described as

the sun and moon rise in the east, because of the position of the altar, or for some unknown reason, since actually the main invocations are towards the north. i have been given no reason for this; but i have an idea that in the old days they thought their paradise lay in the north, as they hold that the northern lights are the lights of their paradise, though this is usually thought of as being underground, or in a hollow hill. it is worth noting, too, that scandinavian mythology makes the north the dwelling-place of the gods, and that in gaelic myth the south, often camouflaged as 'spain, is evil or hell. presumably, therefore, its opposite, the north, is paradise. i have seen one very interesting ceremony: the cauldron of regeneration and the dance of the wheel, or yule, to cause the s

own satisfaction. i think it was probably a show put on for the tourists, though i was assured by responsible people that it was not. in short, i believe that people may perform black masses at times for a thrill, or with evil intent; but i do not believe that these people are witches, or know anything about witchcraft. incidentally, i met more than one witch in rome, though witches have to keep underground, and they knew nothing of this black mass. being initiated into the witch cult does not give a witch supernatural powers as i reckon them, but instructions are given, in rather veiled terms, in processes which develop various clairvoyant and other powers, in those who naturally possess them slightly. if they have none they can create none. some of these powers are akin to magnetism, me

oor wretches confess to these impossibilities, in order to lead the questioning away from the truth. the fact that their god had horns caused him to be identified with the devil. the fact that witches were often people of some property worth looting supplied the incentive; rack and branding-iron did the rest. christian fear and christian fire prevailed. the few remaining members of the cult dived underground and have remained secretive ever since. they are happy practising their lovely old rites. they do not want converts: converts mean talk: talk means bother and semi-persecution. all they desire is peace. 2- there have been witches in all ages there have been witches in all ages and countries. that is, there have been men and women who have had a know-ledge of cures, philtres, charms and

ven at death. they were also charged with persuading people not to give money to the church. there were similar sects known as waldenses and albigenses. we know practically only what the church tells us about them and she makes identical charges against them all, with witchcraft thrown in for good measure. crusades were organised, very large numbers of people were massacred, the sects disappeared underground, and the persecution was switched to the heathens, the people of the heaths, who carried on the old religion. seemingly it was taken for granted that all heathens were heretics and witches, and that all witches were automatically heretics. as part of this campaign all sorts of false ideas were spread until the popular notion of a witch became that of the common definition 'a witch is a

own that children were usually initiated when they were quite young. this just shows what a myth the old witch story is. the children were made witches when they were young, therefore witches were of all ages. indeed, reports of the trials often include such items as these 'convicted and burned, two witches, girls of 16, both young and damnably pretty' when practically all the witches were driven underground it is estimated that nine million people were tortured to death during the persecution in europe; any old woman who then lived by herself, and who was a nuisance or unpopular, was liable to be accused, especially if she kept a pet and talked to it, or talked to herself, as so many lonely old women are apt to do. such an accusation meant fun for the mob, stripping, pricking, ducking and

here would be nothing to repudiate. possibly during the persecution times if unknown people turned up at a big religious meeting they would be questioned to see if they were spies and might be asked to deny christianity, as a sort of test. they would never initiate anyone, take him into the circle, unless they knew him well as one of the old faith. when the persecution grew fierce, the cult dived underground and practically only children, born and bred into the cult, were ever initiated. i can well believe that sometimes, if someone not of the blood wished to come in, he might be questioned; but it is as much use to ask the average postulant to deny christianity as to make him deny a belief in fidlers green, which old sailors used to tell about: the paradise where old sailors went, which l

ot think it has ever been explained exactly what happened to the bulk of the templars. records show that about eight hundred were executed or died under torture; but this was out of fifteen thousand knights scattered all over europe. there were also about twenty-five thousand priests and serving brothers, who do not seem ever to have been persecuted. so seemingly about forty thousand people dived underground and disappeared, as the witches did later. one curious point about this persecution is that the templar priests were never charged. if there is any truth in charges 3 and 7, it could only be the work of the priests. it was said they addressed the thief on the cross, which would probably have meant barabbas- surely an unlikely person to turn into a god. another story was that they calle

uel voice would say 'tell all' when a poor wretch was tortured enough, they would dictate to him what to say, and whom to implicate. the average person conveniently forgets that this was done, if indeed he ever knew; but witches do not forget that this or similar treatment was meted out to their ancestors, and the days of persecution are not over, at least in many places, so the witch still keeps underground. aldous huxley in his most enlightening book the devils of loudun tells (page 177) of the tortures and death of one grandier in 1634 on the charge of bewitching some nuns. the particulars are taken from the court records and are authentic 'in the presence of two apothecaries and several doctors grandier was stripped, shaved all over and then systematically pricked to the bone with a lo

a coincidence but he is very, very dead' and many years ago i remember seeing in the papers reports of a curious lawsuit in new york where sworn evidence was produced in court to the effect that a certain unorthodox branch of the christian science church was supposed to meet regularly and after prayers say 'we think of brother, we wish him well, we wish he were in the best place for him, six feet underground' and firmly fix the idea of the brother as dead or buried in their minds. they were said to have frightened many people to death that way. i believe that finally an injunction against these practices was granted, but i am not sure. so perhaps a witch can do what monks and christian scientists can do. witch marks i have never seen or heard of these among witches. dr. murray suggests tha
