Also, there is an interesting note about the upcoming “Ritual Traum a, Child Abuse and Mind Control Conference” in Atlanta in October (1997) in the resource section. I recommend that you read it if you are going or thinking of going to the show.
———————————-

At a recent survivor show I went to I was told by the person in charge of choosing speakers that I was not allowed to speak because several close relatives of his/hers were Masons and she or he did not believe that the Masons were a secret society or were (allegedly) involved in ritual abuse. Hardly an unbiased selector of speakers. Later on a senior member of that organization apologized to me and asked me to submit a proposal for next year’s show.

Unfortunately there are people in the survivor and even ritual abuse survivor movements that do not want the possible connections between RA and secret societies discussed in a public forum or even in their publications or on the Internet. Some do not believe in these connections. Others may be connected to secret societies. Some feel that it is “too extreme” or “that we will lack credibility in the public eye” if we discuss these connections. I disagree. I believe the possible abusers must be named and eventually held accountable for their acts. Minimization or silence about these groups possible involvement in RA is dangerous for several reasons. One, the children and adults being allegedly abused by these groups are in more danger if we don’t speak up. Pressure on these groups will hopefully make them (or at least non-members) be more careful of these groups. Survivors recovering from these groups’ alleged abuses need information about these groups. Lack of information may make it more difficult for some survivors to heal. Lastly the public needs to hear about these groups and their possible connections to RA as much as possible. Over time, after hearing numerous reports about these groups and their alleged acts, they will begin to believe what we are saying about these groups, and hold them accountable for their actions.

I hope that more survivor organizations and newsletters will cooperate more fully in the future in getting this important information out to other survivors and the public. Our survival as a movement fighting abuse entails working together as much as possible to stop this and all forms of abuse.

The following article is a memory of a subscriber, a survivor of alleged Masonic ritual abuse. Please use caution while reading. It may be triggering.

Little One went with Daddy thinking they were going to have a fun night. He said it was a special night. She was very excited about going. They were all dressed up, but he took her to the Lodge. As they walked up the long steps, she was afraid. She didn’t like this place. It was scary. There were other little girls. They seemed scared too. The men had black things on. They looked funny. Then we went to this room where we took off our dresses and everything else. We were told to put on these white gowns. We were playing dress up. I felt funny because I did not have anything on under the gown. They said it would be ok, but inside I was afraid. Then they said we were going to play a game. It would be fun, but it was our secret. If we told others would want to play and then it wouldn’t be special. They took a rope and tied my hands together. They said someone would come and rescue me and untie the rope. He would be my hero, just like on tv.

Then they took us one at a time into this room. I didn’t like it because there were men in the room. It was kind of dark in the room. They were all in black. They told me to be brave and not cry and that there would be a special treat if I was real good. I started to cry and asked April to come. Susan knows how to be the good girl, but she wouldn’t come. She was afraid. They told me to go in. Daddy was real proud of me. He took me and put me in front of him in front of the men. He said, “this is my daughter.” He was real proud of me but I was scared. Then he picked me up and put me on the end of this long table. He undid the gown and let it come off. I wanted to cry and got real scared. She knew I had enough so she took over. Why did Daddy take off my gown? The men were real happy. I had to walk back and forth a couple times. I was real mad. They didn’t pick me that night. There was another girl that was pretty. I was relieved. Daddy said don’t worry one day I would get picked. It would be my turn. I didn’t want to get picked.

One night, it was my turn. They said we want her tonight. Daddy said that I should do what they say because they would hurt him and me too. Because I was his and he was one of them I had to do what they said.

After they looked at all the girls, they picked me. I could not put the robe back on. The room got real dark and I was scared but I wouldn’t let them see I was. I had to lie on this table with a white sheet on it. It was the only light thing in the room. One by one they came up to the table. Each one said words but I couldn’t understand them. They would touch me in different places when they would talk. Each one was different. They would lay things on top of me. First they touched my arms, then my legs. They put a cloth over my head but it had holes in it so I could breathe and see. They touched my neck and went down. The last man came up. He was smiling real big. It was his night to be last. He said some words and then he had two men hold my feet apart. He took this thing and put it between my legs. He started to get mad because it wouldn’t go in, but they put something on it and then he put it inside of me. He said it represented a god and that I was becoming one of god’s children. He was being put inside of me never to be taken away. I was his forever. Then he took the god out and put his hand in. He said he had to make sure it was all in so the god couldn’t come out. Then they said I was special and that I did good.

Someone helped me up – untied my hands and put my robe back on. I had a hard time standing up but they helped me. Then they gave me ice cream along with the other girls. The girls looked at me funny. Some knew what happened because they had been picked before. Some looked sad because they wondered if they would ever be picked so they could be special too.

S.M.A.R.T. wants to thank this subscriber for her article and encourages others to send in their articles also.

The following article is from a subscriber. Please use caution while reading. It may be triggering.

I do not pretend to know a great deal about the organization I’ve known as the Golden Dawn. I do not believe that anyone besides the leaders really understand what it was created for, and what the goals of their organization is. However, I can share some information as an alleged former victim of a number of members of this international organization.

I was first formally introduced to Golden Dawn’s belief systems when I was in my middle teens at an alleged programming facility in North Carolina. The facility fronted as a rehab institution for troubled youths. Although I do not have any personal documentation about that stay, I certainly remember much of what went on there.

Besides allegedly learning how to do evasive driving at a nearby abandoned racetrack, how to disable guard dogs, how to survive in the woods on my own, and to do other interesting feats, I also allegedly learned that their number one symbol is the rising sun. “Golden Dawn” means just that: A golden colored sun rising at dawn.

Most, if not all, of the individuals I knew in the Golden Dawn were and/or are still alleged Luciferians. Some also allegedly practice paganism. Although as in any religion there will be a variety of believers from strong to fringe, the people who personally indoctrinated me into the Golden Dawn allegedly seemed to be strong in their Luciferian beliefs.

They allegedly taught me that Lucifer was the true son of God, that Jesus Christ was the fake usurper, that Lucifer will oust Jesus Christ and will then forcibly retake his “rightful” position as the son of God.

I was allegedly taught that as the “Light-Bearer,” Lucifer’s symbol is the day star, or the sun. They believed, or so they said, that the rays of the sun literally energize them spiritually and physically, rather like hooking up a car battery up to a charger overnight to give it full power again.

One of the main names they gave the sun-god was “Ra.” Pronounced “Rah.” An earthly symbol they gave it was a large golden lion. Since I was then allegedly conditioned to read C.S. Lewis’ “Chronicles of Narnia” until I about knew a couple of the books by heart, I assume that book series is allegedly used as part of their storybook programming; especially since the symbol of God in the books is Aslan, the lion character who occasionally glowed bright like the sun. (Because of this alleged conditioning, I was very concerned about the recent Disney movie, “The Lion King.”)

I was, on numerous occasions between other covert operations, allegedly made to help with neo-Greek, all-female, daytime rituals. The three
main places I was allegedly used to “help” with these rituals were a private solarium and a large greenhouse in the vicinity of Atlanta, GA and also allegedly in the Masonic temple in DC. In each of these ritualistic, pagan-mixed-sun -worshipping rituals, the women wore Greek type outfits, right down to the hair bindings and footwear. During several rituals at the greenhouse near Atlanta, we also allegedly drank a clear liquid substance that I was told was the “Elixir of Life,” most of us not knowing what it really was made of. I later allegedly found out in Texe Marr’s book of “New Age Religions and Cults” that this elixir does look and have the weight I specifically remembered for an important reason: it’s reprocessed male semen.

The women in charge of these rituals stated that because of the AIDS epidemic, and because they were “above” Satanism, they used the elixir as a life-extending, life-charging substance rather than the old standby, human blood.

A surprising number of female members at these ceremonies were allegedly wives of local, state, and DC politicians and business associates. Maybe some of these wives really didn’t understand the seriousness of what they were involved in. Maybe they just thought it would be fun to be part of the inner circle of wives.

The men who allegedly taught me still more about the Golden Dawn’s goals explained that they allegedly intended to get rid of Christianity, and therefore Christians, completely some day in revenge for what Jesus Christ and his followers did to Lucifer and his followers. I hope that just a few of the members really believe all this.

The women, at some of their rituals, would allegedly brutally sexually assault me, other dissociated female adult victims, and girls, using phallic devices including huge whitish crystals.

There was also allegedly a counter-cult run by the men where they met in underground caves. At night. They allegedly practiced what I knew as “Molech” rituals. Very gory stuff. These men were oftentimes the husbands of the females who allegedly practiced the flightier daytime/sun-worshipping rituals. The men were much more brutal. Some of them were also allegedly in the military with fairly high ranks.

I knew very few members of the Golden Dawn who were not Caucasian. They allegedly seemed also to be much into Aryan supremacy. Neo-Nazi, in a more covert fashion. They had what they said were “token” members from other nationalities and races, but not many at all.

I was also allegedly taught, for many years, that Golden Dawn was one of two main religious organizations that were, and probably still are, overseen by the other organization I knew as Illuminati. The other one was Satanic Hierarchy, into which I was also allegedly heavily indoctrinated from a very young age.

I hope this helps a little for anyone else who has been exposed to this particular organization. Getting proofs on the CURRENT existence of this alleged international, highly covert religious/political organization has been extremely difficult. I’ve read information about Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. I don’t know if this is the same group. I do know, though, that there are many members who allegedly have tremendous political, media, and financial clout. Perhaps that’s
why they still allegedly operate with great secrecy, unexposed.
